The Man Of My Dreams Chapter 12: Venom and Vows
Sunlight streamed in through the windows and brushed the heads of students as they moved from room to room in the King's Bridge University Architecture Quad in the midst of the autumn morning.She was sitting at a quiet wooden bench next to the fountain by herself, working on her last-minute revisions on her structural design homework on her tablet. Her mind was almost calm, for the first time in weeks. When asked about her mother's surgical date, she had been pre-programmed into City Heart Hospital, and her tuition account had a zero dollar balance. She had crashed over a frightening financial cliff she had been at for months and it was gone.But each time she shut her eyes, she did not see blue prints or tuition receipts.Her eyes saw the gray eyes of Adrian.You found me."The dream that had haunted her the past night still tingled her skin. It could no longer be ignored as a psychological malformation. Adrian was going through the same connection – that nocturnal sanctuary that he live
The Man Of My Dreams Chapter 11: Why Do You Feel Familiar?
Damien's sportscar had a rich leather interior that reeked of expensive cologne and mahogany polish, but the interior of his sportscar was tight and cold.The streets were softly lit by discreetly flashing lights, and as Damien drove along the serene roads that wound away from the Kingsley estate, the lights glinted in the darkness. The headrest against which Aurora leaned was made from leather, and she was gazing out at the dark trees that had passed, leaning her head back. But her mind was a whirl of recollections and bits of dreams and the piercing coldness of Adrian's gray eyes.Damien looked at her over his shoulder as he rested his hand on the steering wheel. It had been too long since they had heard a sound.“Didn't say much at dinner, anyway, in the latter half,” Damien said casually, almost conversationally. When my brother came.Aurora had no head to turn, her stomach churned. I just got nervous, your dad's questions were... intense.Damien responded coolly, "My father is al
The Man Of My Dreams Chapter 10: The Man from Her Dreams
The black sedan zoomed through the iron gates of the Kingsley estate. Excellent landscaping with manicured lawns extended for acres beyond the tinted windows to a large stone manor house, which was surrounded by soft landscape lighting.Aurora's hands were clenched tightly in her lap, and she sat stiffly in her midnight blue dress, inside the car.Damien looked at her, readjusted the cuffs of his tuxedo. Remember your instructions, Aurora, smile, stay close to me, and whatever you do, don't look panicked.In the script they'd rehearsed, Aurora swallowed hard. We met at the University library three weeks ago, where you asked me to help you locate a rare book on Architecture, and since then we have been seeing each other clandestinely.“Good,” said Damien coolly. "You remember."The driver pulled up to the grand front entrance; Aurora looked out the window. If your family doesn't like me what then?Damien squirmed his way over and ran a finger behind her ear, smoothing the hair out of h
The Man Of My Dreams Chapter 9: The Mask We Wear
It was just beginning to be that afternoon's end of day when a loud knock rang in the thin front door of Aurora's apartment.Grace sat up on the sofa with a mug of her warm tea, but Aurora dashed forward to interrupt her. "I’ll get it, Mum."When Aurora opened the door, she was greeted by three women perfectly dressed in dark, tailored suits with several large suitcases of fabric and heavy leather beauty bags.“Miss Bennett?” asked the woman at the front, her eyes darting rapidly over Aurora in a split second. “Hi I am Claire, Mr Damien Kingsley has sent us to help prepare you for the Founder's Charity Gala.”Grace sprang up from the couch in horror. "Aurora? What is this?"Aurora could feel her heart pounding in her chest, but she can make herself smile for reassurance for her mother in a few moments. “It's... a job assignment, Mum. For the university foundation. I've been selected to be a member of the student committee at the gala tonight.Grace looked dubious, protective instincts
The Man Of My Dreams Chapter 8: The Golden Cage
There was such a thick haze in the air inside the top floor executive suite that Aurora could barely take a full breath. She retracted her hand, as if it had been scorched by Damien's lips, as soon as she said the formal greeting.Damien didn't seem bothered. He finished off the costly pen with a sharp, metallic click, grabbed the contract and put it in a leather folder.Damien's voice was now in its normal businesslike tempo, “The accounting department has already been told to make the wire transfers.” Your tuition will be paid in full at Kingsbridge before 5 PM and your mother's surgical reservation has been paid to City Heart Hospital by tomorrow morning.Her chest constricted and Aurora swallowed hard. “What about a receipt, sir?”Damien responded, "Will be sent to your e-mail as soon as the transactions are complete. Then he strolled around his desk, grabbed a sleek black phone and hurled it at her. It made a soft thud sound on the dark wood. “Use this now and always.”Aurora loo
The Man Of My Dreams Chapter 7: The Signature
Aurora was frozen to the spot on the side of her bed.The morning sun was flooding her desk, shining on the contract which Damien had given her. Next to her was the pen she had taken out before going to sleep.She had gone over her dream over and over again in her mind.Don't sign it.Her chest still hurt from the voice of the mysterious man.She grabbed hold of the contract.Then hurriedly withdrawn her hand.What do I need to do? She was interrupted from her thoughts by a knock."Aurora?" There was a knock on the door and Grace called out from the kitchen. "Breakfast is ready."Aurora hurriedly put the contract back into the drawer."I'm coming."Grace was already putting two simple plates out on the little dining table.Toast.Scrambled eggs.A cup of tea that they tried to make, was better than it really was.Grace commented, "You didn't get much sleep, did you?"Aurora twisted her mouth into a smile.I had a dream that was strange.Handsome man again?Almost, but not quite, was
