Masuk_Aurora’s POV_I looked at Nikolai, and the look on his face mirrored the one on mine.My heart dropped to the pit of my stomach.“Are you expecting someone?” I whispered and he shook his head, his eyes still pinned on the door. The person knocked a second time and I instantly took off with my shirt and bra, rushing off to find where to hide. All my mind was screaming at that moment was that I needed to hide and I had to hide fast. My eyes fell on his table and I made my way behind it, crouching underneath his table.Nikolai instantly rushed to zip up his trousers and I would have laughed if this weren’t a serious situation. Who said I couldn’t laugh later?Snickering, I pressed my palms over my lips, making sure no part of my body was showing as my heart raced.I could feel my pussy throb, my palms getting sweaty.And to be honest, I also felt a bit annoyed. We were in the middle of something and that was the exact moment, someone came to knock. People really did have bad timin
_Aurora’s POV_“Yes..” I breathed.Nikolai leaned slowly into me, lying between my legs as he looked at my face one more time for confirmation.He wanted to make sure I was really alright with this. When I gave him a light nod, he instantly took my nipple into his mouth, sucking gently. My back arched off the sofa, my eyes rolling to the back of my bed as he rolled my other nipple between his fingers. “Fuck, Nikolai..” I moaned, wrapping my legs around his waist.This felt so good. So good I never wanted him to stop. Nikolai pushed my legs apart, flicking my nipple with his tongue, and then sucking one more time. My hands dug into his back, my brain getting cloudy. I knew the door was unlocked, but at this moment nothing mattered anymore. I didn’t want to stop anything just to lock the door.Reaching for his belt, my finger unbuckled it, and his zipper followed soon after.My fingers pulled his waistband and Nikolai held my hand to stop me. “You don’t have to please me just b
_Aurora’s POV_Nikolai’s gaze was locked on mine, his face a few inches away. His hot breath fanned my face as his body pressed into mine. “Nikolai..” I breathed out, hearing my heart beat so fast in my chest. It was taking me a lot to control myself. I didn’t know what we were. Or what he wanted. I mean, he said to date him. But I didn’t know what to expect from that. I didn’t know if he would want this and I was really overthinking it. My gaze flickered to his lips and I licked mine, feeling the heat between us. Does he want to kiss me too? I didn’t want to do something he wouldn’t want.Nikolai made a move to push away from me but I instantly held his collar, pulling him down. We hadn’t been in this position since that night at he kitchen. And I wasn’t sure if he remembered it happening. My eyes flickered to his lips once more and he smirked. “Just kiss me if it's what you want..”I didn’t even let him finish speakingzMy lips crashed into his, my eyes closing as I pulled
_Aurora’s POV_He picked up the essay, flipping to the first page.“I did.”“No, you read it academically.” He wouldn't be giving me a C if he read it with love. Nikolai sent me a stare.“That’s generally how essays are marked.” He answered. The sass on this man…“I want emotional marking.”“I’m afraid the university hasn’t adopted that policy.”I groaned loudly enough that someone walking past his office glanced through the glass panel in the door.I smiled sweetly until they walked away. Then I turned back to Nikolai.“You gave me a C.” I forced out through gritted teeth. I wasn’t going to accept a C when I knew I could have gotten much better. “You earned a C.” He said and I groaned once again. “You’re repeating yourself.” And it was starting to get frustrating. Because whyyy the helllll.“So are you.”All this man was doing was repeating what I was saying ot what he said and it was starting to frustrate me. “This relationship is becoming toxic.” I shook my head. He leaned
_Aurora’s POV_I stared at the large red letter written across the top of my paper.There was no missing the large ink. C.Just…C?I blinked once. Then twice. Hoping I was somehow hallucinating the grade on the very first test I had written in this school. Surely I was holding it upside down.I turned the paper around, holding it magically morphed into an A or at least, a B. But nope. Still a C.“…You’re joking.”Across the office, Nikolai didn’t even look up from the laptop on his desk, his fingers rapidly moving over his keyboard. He had his glasses sitting at the bridge of his nose and up till now i Havent yet figured out if they were actually medicated or not. “I’m not.” He answered, his gaze still pinned on me. I looked back at the paper, confirming it was my name that was written on it.Aurora Kingston. That was my name alright, but it wasn’t my grade. I looked back at him. Then back at the paper.“There has been a mistake,” I said, but Nikolai didn't even look up from
_Aurora’s POV_“Because if it stopped hurting…”I swallowed hard.“…it almost feels like I’m forgetting him.”That tiny acceptance was enough to make me feel a bit better.“You aren’t.” My gaze snapped to his. Nikolai was staring at me with deep emotions written on his face. I tore my gaze away after a few seconds, looking at the artist once again. “It feels like I am,” I confessed. It felt strange discussing this with Nikolai. We were on a date and I was talking about a past love. Who even does that? And it was different that he was letting me. “It isn’t the same thing,” Nikolai repeated, like he was expecting me to get it into my head. I looked down at the pavement.“I don’t know.”He waited another few seconds before speaking.“Do you remember your first day at university?”I looked at him, my brows furrowed. “…Today?” A smile tugged at his mouth.“Exactly.”“I don’t understand.” I was so confused about where he was getting at. I waited for him to explain what he meant.
