A U R O R AThree years later.It was just one of those days in Mexico.The entire room was a mess and I did not make it a point to clean the same. Partly because I had never stayed in one place for far more than necessary and also that I never wanted any apartment to feel like home. I had pushed myself so far out of my comfort zone in the last three years that mundane life made me restless. I never wanted to be comfortable again or relaxed. Been there, done that. I’d fear that if I do, I’d end up shattered or dead. Three years ago, I chose to be sent to this country to eliminate the threat in Chicago and slowly, I did. After I had left Chicago, there were two more attacks and the third was taken care of by Marco, as I was informed. The setback send a rippling effect in Mexico as the Carillo Cartel set up new strategies. Unfortunately, they did not realize that their fucking villas were wired. I’d been employed as a maid, getting the easy access into their homes. I had a few years

A U R O R AI stepped out of the airport and stood out there for a long moment.When the cold wind touched my skin, I absorbed the familiarity of the feeling. This was Chicago. This was home, even when the haunting memories kept me away, I longed for it. I just didn’t realize until now. I hailed a cab and headed for the first destination I had planned. It would not be an easy one, I knew, but I had to. I searched for the right words all along the cab ride, coming up with nothing when the cab came to a halt. Grabbing the small duffle, I paid and got out. I thought of calling or dropping a text, I didn’t know how it would be received. Also, what would I say? What could I possibly say that would make three years worth of the mess go away? So I waited around, lounging on the chair of the small room and hoped for the best.I had almost dozed off when I heard the door unlatch and turned around. Sammy, too, paused at the threshold, surprise etched all over her features before she blinked it

AURORA I didn’t know the name of the magic pill Sammy gave me the next morning but somehow, I felt fresh as a daisy. Considering the night we had, I wondered if I was going to lie in my own vomit the next day. Thankfully, it didn’t happen. I grabbed my phone, going through the messages Viktor had left me last night and also a bunch of files detailing some chick named Nora. Apparently, she slept with Dominic and got close to the family. I didn’t bother how she pissed Viktor off but given the way he wanted me to ‘take care’ of the problem, I was guessing that she had royally fucked with Viktor to incur his wrath. Strolling down to the office, I didn’t bother knocking and barged in. Dominic and Viktor were hunched over the table, frowning over something. As soon as they registered my presence, Dominic rolled his eyes. “Do you ever fucking knock?” He wasn’t least bit surprised to see, especially when he nagged me the entire time to come back probably because Viktor had already inf

AURORAI have dealt with men far dirtier, more lethal and criminal than the whore I have been asked to capture and torture. It was like one of those warm-up matches you play before you get to the big one. Not that I minded playing the warm-up, but I was bored. “Will you fucking shut up?” I asked, kicking her chair before landing a punch against her jaw. There were black shadows around her eyes already that I had deepened with time, but what I hated the most was her crying all the time. I liked her for a brief second when she gave me the small chase but other than that, she was no fucking fun. And I really wanted to have that fun.But I also had to heed Viktor’s warning that she should not be so broken because he had plans for her and when Viktor Romano has plans for anyone, even the Devil would not interfere. And then when Viktor barged into her cell with his woman, I knew my job was done.XXXSammy, Mia and I chatted alongside the pool, making me realise how clueless Mia was rega

MARCO I had seen her hours ago, hiding behind the glass separator of the Romano mansion, and every bone in my body wanted to drag her out and kiss her lips blue and paint her ass red to make her feel every agonising hour I’d spent without her for these three years. Three fucking years. She took up and left, without so much of a goodbye. Not that I deserved it but I would have eventually given her the truth once the dust had settled. Aurora needed to know that there was another side of the story of what had really happened that night, and all I was doing was protecting her, but as always, she did not wait. I was so angry, so hurt and broken that I’d have taken her scorching rage and indifference any day rather than not seeing her at all. I knew she was hurt, too, for that night three years ago. And she deserved to know more than what the four-minute and seventeen-second video clip had shown, but she could have given me the time. Instead of doing something so brash and reckles

AURORAI stormed into Viktor's office, the door slamming against the wall with a deafening bang. My anger surged as I spotted him behind his desk, casually sipping on a glass of whiskey as if he hadn’t just dropped a bombshell on me. He looked up, his eyes narrowing slightly as he took in my furious expression. “Aurora,” he greeted, his voice calm and collected. Too calm for my liking. “I’ve been expecting you.”I crossed my arms, glaring at him. “What the hell, Viktor? You decided behind my back that I’m going on this job with Marco? You know damn well I can handle this on my own.”Viktor sighed, setting his glass down with a soft clink. “Aurora, this isn’t about your capability. You’re one of the best enforcers I have, but this job is too important to risk anything less than perfection.” Fuck his perfection. I scoffed and my blood was boiling. “And you think Marco is the answer to that? That asshole, who you know I haven’t worked with in years?”“Yes, I do,” he replied firmly, lea

AURORAIt was not my first rodeo in a BDSM club. Hell, I had lived this life a few years ago, and yet it felt like ages. As I sat there, motionless and holding my breath, I watched Marco raise his arm at a certain degree and land a measured yet bone-chilling smack across the poor submissive’s bare ass, catching the sensitive skin where the thighs sloped down. He immediately arched, careful not to break his posture because whoever was watching the scene and knew Marco, knew the consequence of breaking his rhythm. Oh, yes. He was as vicious as articulate, and any deviation resulted in severe penalties. “God, please!” I heard the submissive moan into the cushion, the littlest complaint he could make without offending his master and the master whipping his ass. The second and third blows crisscrossed over the ass cheeks, while the fourth and fifth took his breath away. I followed how he cringed every time the soft swish of the belt rang in the air before it landed on his back. “Hmm,

Chapter 47MARCOIt took every fiber of my being to restrain myself from kicking everyone out of the room so that I could be alone with her.I knew she hated me, loathed me even, but even she could not deny the pull between us. There will always be something intoxicating, compelling, and everlasting between us—no matter how many oceans we put between us. And Aurora walking inside my domain was only the tip of this behemoth iceberg between us. Of course, she’d deny it. Of course, she’d disagree, but the way she’d fisted the hem of her dress, her legs crossed, her breathing hitched, and her teeth gnawed against her lower lip—every fucking detail pointed to one simple thing that I wanted to know. She was still as much mine as I was hers. And if she thought I fucking did not notice that she was yet to know me in ways her mind could not fathom. And even now, when I was sitting so close to her, I could feel electricity humming between us. But Aurora, being herself, fought it tooth and

MARCO I moved on pure instinct, throwing myself at her. The gun went off, the sound deafening in the night as the bullet whizzed past my head, close enough that I felt the heat of it. I slammed into Aurora, knocking her out of the line of fire and rolling us both into the bushes. She struggled beneath me, cursing up a storm. “Marco, get off me!”“Not until we’re clear,” I growled, already pulling my gun. I fired twice, the silenced shots taking down the guard before he could fire again. I stayed on top of her, my body shielding hers until I was sure the threat was neutralized.When I finally rolled off her, she shoved me hard, her eyes blazing with fury. “I had it under control, Marco!”“Like hell you did!” I snapped back, my patience wearing thin now. “That guy was going to shoot you between the fucking eyes.”“Yeah, right!” She rolled her eyes, clocking her gun as we approched inside. The target was supposed to be simple. I mean, it was never really SIMPLE—nothing in this mafia

AURORAThe car screeched into the driveway of Marco’s mansion and immediately a mixed sense of dread and familiarity hit me.It was the same feeling I felt the first day Viktor brought me here and the only difference was that, I did not know what I was getting into.The mansion looked the same as it was three years ago when I had left Chicago for good. There was always a symmetrical architecture of sophistication and charm. The tall, arched window framed with intricate work and Parisian aesthetic, fuck, it felt like time stood still.I climbed out of the driver’s seat and rounded over to Marco’s side to help him get out. By now, his clothes were soaked in blood and I could see how he was barely managing to hold himself upright.His hand was pressed against his side where the bullet had grazed him earlier. I had to give him credit; he was trying to act like it didn’t hurt. But I could see the way his jaw tightened, the subtle flinch every time he moved.I so fucking wanted to smirk and
