Michael POV:I closed the door and pulled her hungrily into my arms. She sighed with pure delight as my hard mouth found her lips and lifted her into an even more intimate embrace.“I’ve missed you,” i ground out against her responsive lips.“I’ve missed you…too,” she whispered back. I lifted her body against mine and deepened the kiss. She moaned under my lips. I caught my breath, my arms contracting hungrily. It had been a long, dry spell, and i was reacting badly to it. I felt myself go taut as the kiss moved into deeper, more urgent dimensions.I bent to lift her, my mind no longer on pretense or fabrication. I had only one thought in my mind, to relieve the need that was drawing his powerful body as tight as a cable.“Michael we…shouldn’t…” she tried to protest when i laid her out on the sofa and melted down onto her. My mouth stopped the halfhearted little protest. My hand was busy on fastenings. I groaned for her lift her body up a little, i tug at midi dress from the bottom a

Michael POV:The nightmare was so vivid and terrifying that it felt like it was real. In my dream, I saw the woman I love walking down a dark alleyway alone. I tried to call out to her, to warn her of the danger, but my voice wouldn't come out. Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared behind her, and before I knew it, he had grabbed her from behind.I watched in horror as he dragged her into the darkness, her screams echoing in my head. I tried to run after them, but my legs wouldn't move. I was frozen in place, helpless and powerless to save her.As the minutes ticked by, my fear turned to pure dread as I heard her cries grow fainter and fainter. I knew that she was being hurt, and there was nothing I could do to stop it. The sense of despair was overwhelming, and I felt like I was suffocating.Finally, the figure emerged from the shadows, dragging her lifeless body behind him. I collapsed to the ground in agony, tears streaming down my face as I cradled her in my arms.The nightmare was

Michael POV I headed to work, when i entered the office. I could feel the air of coldness. I stared at her empty her desk, i knew she wouldn't come, but it hurta differently finding she really didn't come. I knew Mabel and Libby also knew she would not be coming to work again. They were throwing me accusing looks. The warm welcome that has almost become a ritual, has turned to a cold shoulder. I wonder what she told them, she wouldn't want to tell them the truth and would probably compromise. I wonder if she would put me out there and lay the entire blame me. I wouldn't blame her of she did, i did deserve it. She deserve better and i hurt her.I cleared my throat "Aurora won't be joining us again for the time being" i said"Did she quit again" She asked accusingly but hurt"It was due to some personal reasons we could not agree on. We will sort it out and try to figure a way around it. But for now, she will be working somewhere else" I watched them, the dissapointment was so visi

Aurora POV:I pulled up in the clinic patking lot, I walked to the entrance and waited there for a moment, trying to repel some bad thoughts that were seeping into my brain, i tried so hard to force them out of my brain, but the anxiety onmy got worse.I finally summoned the courage and walked in, I was hit with the familiar amalgam of smell which always tightened my stomach. It was deja vu staring at the bright white walls, plug ins for equipment, fluorescent lights, a big television set was playing in the corner of the waiting room to keep the awaiting patients mind off their pain while they await. People being paged over the intercom, the whoosh of automatic doors between hospital wings, slippers whispering as a patient take her IV stands for a walk. Just like most Private hospitals often are, It had wards that are safe, clean and nurturing with well equipped facilities which offcourse makes it expensive. And as expected it is relatively emptier and uncrowded to his public counte
