All Chapters of Aurora's Secrets: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

They remained like that for a while, their lips touching but not moving. His arms came around her waist and tugged her closer,"How did you get here?" She pushed back so she could see his face clearly.He dropped his hand from her face, his plump lips curled into a smirk. She eyed his outfit with a skeptical look, he wasn't dressed for the occasion instead donning black ripped jeans and sneakers paired with a polo shirt and leather jacket, she wondered how he was permitted to get in. "I snuck in, through the fence." She thought he was being serious until she noticed the glint in his eyes, "I came to see you." Her brows rose to her forehead and a small squeal left her lips as his arms went around her and tugged again, "Why?" "I missed you." He buried his face into her neck, peppering light kisses on her sink. She sighed softly, tilting her head to give him better access, "It's been days." His fingers dug into her waist, nails piercing through the light material of her gown. "Ryan,"

Aurora stayed frozen in place, watching how her mother walked forward, pointing a shaky finger at Evan and then at her father."What is he doing here?" It was obvious that the woman was trying to rein in her temper, "Why is he in my HOME!?" Her father placed a hand on her shoulder and she flinched slightly, "Miriam, calm down and listen to me." Aurora stepped away from him and he turned to look at her but she looked away. Her eyes fell on her brother instead, he still stood there, smirking at all of them. "Listen to you!?" Her mother whipped around to face him, "You want me to listen to you? Okay, I'm listening. Tell me what this-this," She gestured to Evan with disdain, "Thing is doing here."Evan scoffed, shaking his head although there was amusement in his features, the dark kind. Aurora looked at her father too, she was also interested in what he had to say. He nervously rubbed his hands together, giving each of them a small smile, "Evan here is going to be staying with us for

The moment Aurora stepped into the institute, she rushed into the dressing room and changed before hitting one of the empty classrooms. When Mozart's 'Fur Elise' came up on the music box, she moved into a resting position and closed her eyes, inhaling softly through her nose. She counted slowly, from ten backwards. It was a mantra she did each time before dancing, something her ballet master taught her. When she reached one, her eyes snapped open, And then she danced. Aurora moved with passion, all the pent-up anger that had been brewing inside her chest, she pushed into her steps. Her toes glided and bounced from the hardwood but she never stopped. As the song drew to an end, she did a fouetté continuously until it ended. Her heart thumped loudly, each heavy breath expelled through her nose, Someone clapped loudly, breaking the quietness. She looked towards the source of the noise and her brows furrowed when she caught sight of the blonde grinning brightly at her, "That was ab

The delicious sight of braised ribs paired with mashed potatoes was mouthwatering and she meant it literally. Aurora raised a hand to quickly wipe off the drool that was starting to slip out of her mouth.She heard Ryan chuckle beside her and she ducked her head, too embarrassed to look him in the eye. The aroma tickled her nose making her stomach grumble in response,"Here," Ryan placed a spoon in her hand, "Have a bite."His expression was encouraging but she was doubtful. Her wary eyes darted from him to the scrumptious meal placed in front of them. What would her mother say if she saw her like this?Aurora mentally shuddered at the thought. Since she was a little girl, all she was allowed to eat were low-calorie food. Her mother forbade any meal that didn't have green in them, which meant she didn't grow up eating chocolate or ice cream. Although she had tried eating it once or twice behind her mother's back, it left her always craving more.But this was different. She wasn't alon

The sound of soft music filled the air and she allowed herself to bask in the haunting melody, although her eyes were fixed on the stage where her colleagues were dancing about, her mind was elsewhere.No matter how she tried, she couldn't forget what Evan said to her three nights ago. It had kept her tossing and restless on the bed throughout the night, making her a little bit cranky this morning.Her eyes were all puffy and red plus the side of her face was slightly swollen. She had applied some makeup to conceal the dark spots and eye bags but they didn't do a good job. "Aurora," She was also extremely hungry since her mother insisted that she had an apple for breakfast, not to mention how she felt after being grounded for a month."Aurora!"At least, Evan got punished alongside her so that was a respite,"Aurora!"She almost jumped from her skin when she felt icy hands on her shoulders, when she tipped her head backwards, she was met with the face of her friend, Natasha. "What'
