Klaus was starting to get antsy. He had noticed Aurora walking out of the hall almost an hour ago, but he hadn’t seen her ever since. She had looked tired before leaving and he had half a mind to follow her then but he had been cornered by an Alpha wanting to speak with him about some business deal. He noted that Aurora’s father was still at the party though. Maybe Aurora had retired to bed early, she didn’t seem like the type to enjoy partying anyway. Yet, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was not quite right. Or maybe he was just being paranoid, he was still new to the mate stuff after all. He took a quick survey of the hall and grimaced when he realized that Michael, Aurora's ex-mate, was nowhere to be found either. He took a final sip of his drink before mindlinking Ian to take over in his stead. When he stepped out of the hall, he paused to sniff the air. There were lingering traces of Aurora’s scent all around him but it wasn’t strong enough for him to pinpoint her

Aurora’s POVWhen I opened my eyes again, I was back in the Blood Moon Pack. Laying down on the bed in Klaus’s room to be precise. The room was dimly lit but I could make my way around easily. I remembered how I had been paralyzed previously and I immediately sat up to test my strength. I was back to normal! Okay, good. Now let me try getting up. I got off the bed with surprising ease. Thank goodness! I never wanted to feel paralyzed ever again. It was like being trapped inside a room and only being able to watch the world through a small window. “Easy there, tiger” I heard Klaus say from somewhere in the room. I had been so concerned with my mobility that I didn’t even realize he was in the room with me. “Um hi,” I said. In the next instant, Klaus was standing right next to me. “Aurora.” He said cupping my face towards him. “Are you ok?” He asked. “Yeah, I’m fine now. Thanks so much for coming right when you did” I blurted out. “You can move around already? Hmm,” He said thought

Aurora’s POVI woke up with a lazy smile. It must have been around midday when I woke up because the sun was shining very brightly through the windows. I stretched my limbs while thinking about how I hadn’t had such good sleep in a while. Looking around, I realized that this wasn’t my room and I gasped when memories of the night before came crashing through my brain. Thankfully, I was alone in the room as I relieved the most erotic night of my life. Goodness! Had I really let Klaus do all those things to me? And to think that I had been screaming for the most part. Oh no! I hadn’t stopped to think about how high my screams were, everyone in this castle must have heard my moans. In fact, I hadn’t been thinking at all last night. It was like I had transformed into some type of junkie whose addiction was a certain egoistic Alpha. A blush crept through my cheeks as I thought about how willing I had been last night. I practically had begged for him to sleep with me. ‘And he refused’ I re

Klaus fumed as he tackled pending paperwork littered on his desk. He could hardly focus on the task at hand as his mind kept drifting back to Aurora and the argument they had. He had half a mind to walk back to her room and tell her that he would never let her leave him willingly. However, he could not go back on his word. He had told her that he would let her leave in the spur of the moment and had regretted it immediately. It would be a total disaster if she decided to take him up on his offer. The mate bond might not be fully developed between them, but he was sure he would not survive being separated from her for a long time. Curse his temper, he should have controlled himself better with her. How could he have told her to leave when there was the threat of her ex? There was no way he could let her leave. Not on her own anyway. He became aware of a female’s scent invading his surroundings just as a series of short knocks sounded on the door. His aunt, Danielle, waltzed in with

Aurora’s POVI sat close to the window overlooking the orchard, and deep down, I couldn't help but wonder how I had gotten into all of these. How my once simple but sad life had evolved into this complicated shit… and now, I was pregnant and about to be married to the King Superior! The one person I never imagined to live the rest of my life with.I sipped the pina colada slowly, thinking, and was only snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the sudden knock on my door. I jumped.“Come in!” I screamed, not bothering to ask who it was. A few seconds later, a petite maid walked in. She had her head bowed and was looking everywhere but my face. I watched as she played with her fingers as if desperately trying to avoid my gaze.“What is it?” I snapped impatiently.The girl jumped at the tone of my voice. She shot a pitiable look my way before she responded; “there is a lady outside that wants to see you. She said she’s a friend.”At first, I was shocked at her words. I had no friends besid
