All Chapters of Demon King's Mate: Chapter 21 - Chapter 29

Aurora pov:The rest of my classes went by uneventful. I was too busy waiting for something bad to happen to actually pay attention to any of my professors. I’m pretty sure some of them noticed, but didn’t bother to say anything because of Axel. Speaking of Axel, I shyly glanced over at said……..man. Though I’m scared he was playing around with me, I couldn’t help but to notice how manly he is. His huge body sat relaxed in the small chair. The hoodie he was wearing did no justice hiding his muscular arms and chest. It looks like if he flexed once he would rip his hoodie.My face heated slightly as I continued to stare. I really shouldn’t stare. It wasn’t polite and he might get mad at me.I quickly face forward again, trying to get back into my work. With him still on my mind, I knew it would be pointless for me to try to finish whatever work I had left. I would have to do it later. Plus class was about to end soon. There really wasn’t a point to try and continue it. I slowly began t

Axel POV:It didn’t take long for Aurora and I to reach the library. I opened the door for her, and closely followed her inside to where she preferred to sit. After a few minutes of walking and occasional turns, I couldn’t help but to happily perk up when she led me towards a tablet that was tucked in the back, away from the annoying people and prying eyes. Though it was a table that could easily hold a few people, it was private enough that I knew we could get away with certain things if Aurora was quiet enough.I quietly scoffed, even if she was loud, who would dare try and stop what we were doing. As if anyone would, or could, do anything about it. “D-Did you want t-to s-sit somewhere e-else?” Aurora ask me, pausing in front of a chair that I assume she usually sits at. “W-We d-don’t-”I pulled out the chair, shushing my mate while gently guiding her to sit down. “Sitting here is more than fine, baby girl. I prefer sitting here rather than being out there. It’s more private and qu

Aurora POV:“You scared her.” I stated, watching as she ducked into the safety of the restaurant's kitchen. I didn’t feel sorry for her at all. I didn’t see a reason for her to glare at me like that. It was pretty rude considering that she was on the job when she did this. Axel slid into the chair across from me, flashing me a stern glare. “She should be glad that’s all I did to her. She had no reason, no right to disrespect you like that. Nobody should be disrespecting you like that.” My stomach clench in a heated flutter at the glare he was giving me. If it was someone else glaring at me, depending on how intimidating they are, I would either be close to tears or uncomfortably nervous. I never get the feeling when it comes to Axel. A twinge of sadness was the closest thing I would get to some sort of negative emotion. Besides the sadness, I couldn’t really describe the exact feeling that would come over me whenever I get that look from him.

Adjusting the knobs to the stove so my collards were off and rice was on low, I covered the sizzling cheesy pasta and slow cooked ribs with tin foil. Cooking all this food and trying to keep up with my lively family has reduced me to a tired out mess. “Food is almost done. Just have to watch the rice since it's on low. I’m g-going to go take a nap.”“I’ll watch the rice for you Aurora. They’ll be a plate already prepared for you when you come down to eat, okay?” “Thanks grandma,” I mumbled, dragging myself towards the kitchen entrance, “Night grandpa.”“It’s 3 in the afternoon, sweetheart.”“Shut up, George! You know what she meant!” “Well she could’ve said-”“What?! What could she had said without sounding stupid! Like your-” I ignored my arguing grandparents, making my way out the kitchen up the stairs to my room. I’m not usually this tired after making food. Even my grandparents' peppiness doesn’t drain me this much. This sudden tiredness confused me a little but I cou
