Laura stared at Steven, he as usual looked extremely handsome in a white three-piece suit. She habitually stared at his side face beside her.“I am glad you’re here,” Arthur said as he stretched his hand to shake with Steven and then hugged him.As soon as Steven’s hand was removed from her waist, she took a step back from him. Steven noticed it and frowned unhappily.“You have invited me, so I had to come,” Steven told him with all smiles at which Arthur said in a confused manner. “Really? But I had invited you to attend all of my exhibitions and still, this is the very first you have attended.”Steven stared at him blankly thinking for a good answer as Arthur again opened his mouth, “Oh maybe, Laura had insisted you this time. Right?” He asked as he looked at him with eager eyes.“Yeah, right,” Steven answered in relief and Laura just kept looking at both men in amusement.Arthur

Laura nodded her head in response and left his car in perplexity. As she entered the apartment, Tina loaded her with non-stop questions about the exhibitions. Laura hid her pain and tried to act normal with her as she told her all the details of the exhibition.The whole night, they talked about Arthur and Steven's relationship. Tina praised Arthur's behavior and Laura also agreed to her while their thoughts about Steven were baffled at some point. They both slept late and spent half of their night while talking.The next morning, as both were sleeping peacefully someone was knocking on their door continuously disturbing their sleep. Laura kicked Tina in frustration and Tina did the same to check on the door."I am tired," Laura groaned in her sleep."I am too tired," Tina also groaned."F**k," Laura cursed as she turned her side. "Whoever it is will get tired of knocking." She said as Tina said in agreement. "Yeah, right. Let's continue our sleep."And

Laura kept protesting all the way down but Augustus didn’t listen to any of it as he dragged her out of the hotel to his car.“I am not leaving…!!” Laura yelled and instantaneously pulled her hand out of his grip.Augustus turned and his nostrils flared as he stared at Laura. “You are leaving this hotel and this city too.” He announced as he took a step forward to hold her arm again.She stepped back from him cautiously and shouted, “No, I am not leaving. This is completely my life. I can do whatever I want.”“That doesn’t mean you’re allowed to whoring yourself.” He said as his jaw clenched and his words carried a heavy sense of loathing as he spoke.Laura felt too disheartened by his words that she spoke without thinking. “So what? That’s none of your business if I sell my body to one person or to many. You would never be able to stop me from this.”Augustus&rsq

“Kiss me and prove me wrong, because just now your actions proved that you are lying, Laura. You can deceive me with your words but not with your body’s reaction.” He said in a low voice, his face just inches away from her as his fully grown beard was sending goosebumps into her body when he slightly rubbed it on her face to tease her.After a moment of hesitation, she took her courage and kissed him on the lips as Steven smiled knowingly. “Laura, I am not a child. You are going to be my girlfriend so I want the proper deep kiss from my girl.” He said huskily as his hands were now on the headboard trapping her in his embrace.“Steve,” Laura called him while hesitating. Her hesitation proved Steven’s doubt to be right as he disappointedly pulled himself away from her. “It’s ok, we can still pretend in front of your brother-in-law but you just need to promise me that you won’t harm yourself.”He sai

BOOMShe closed the door on his face and then turned to just find Laura glaring at her unhappily.“What?” She shrugged as she walked into the kitchen.“You weren’t serious when you said those words to Arthur. You like him then why did you push him away? Huh?” Laura questioned her angrily.“Laura, I didn’t like him and also I am not ready for relationship thing. You know my dad very well. Who will want to marry a daughter of that kind of man?” Tina said bitterly as Laura shut her mouth understanding her reasons.“And by the way, what the hell are you wearing? Whose clothes are these?” Tina asked while pulling her hoodie. Laura is wearing Steven’s clothes which are way looser and big on her petite body.“Nothing important, I want to sleep for a while. You’re leaving for the school?” She asked trying to change the subject.“School? Oh, f**k. I need to fill an ass
