New Aurora Teagarden Novels & Stories

She chose two light snacks, takoyaki and boiled edamame, then added hot green tea. As the waiter left, Aurora leaned back and let her gaze fall on the small garden outside the window. Her heart was still a little uneasy, not because of Rafael's business meeting, but because of the professional closeness between Rafael and Nadine. The girl seemed very capable, knowing everything before Rafael even asked. Aurora knew Nadine was just a secretary, but there was still a small part of her that felt out of place in Rafael's world.

Rosa called softly, breaking her train of thoughts, "Could you put on the stove, I'm almost done chopping the vegetables." Aurora blinked away the gloominess and nodded, "Sure thing." As she moved towards the cooker, her father excused himself the moment his ringtone blasted through the speakers of his phone. Later in the day, Aurora decided to drive down to the Downton club and when she got in, the smell of alcohol mixed with sweat instantly hit her nostrils and she wrinkled her nose in distaste. The bar was empty, that was a first, and the tables were cleared off to the side, she wondered if they were renovating when her eyes caught the ladder and toolbox on the ground. That would make sen

Aurora was sitting on a bench in a secluded part of the garden, watching the fountain, half-asleep. One of the younger gardeners walked into the small clearing, saw Aurora, and smiled. “Rora.” She turned. “Hello Tren.” He sat down beside her, looking her up and down. She was wearing a soft, thin gauze dress in pale blue. It was obvious, from the slight breeze, and the light of the sun, that she wasn’t wearing much under it. He could just see the shadows of her darker pink nipples straining against the fabric. Smiling, he slid closer to her. “That’s a lovely dress.”

"Anyway, are you in one of my classes?" "Yes, sir. 8:00 to 9:00 am. Mythology and Folklore," I dictated. "Oh, then you might want to tell me your name so I could recognize you in our class," he suggested. I mentally screamed with his suggestion. He just asked my name. I know it's just nothing, but he still asked my name! "My pleasure, sir. It's Aurora Lynne Lopez, but you can call me Aurora or Rora." "Or babe," I mentally said and screamed in my own craziness.

‘I don’t think it will ever become a garden now anyway,’ Auria thought to herself. The place was overflowing with memories of her with John, from the design of the place up to a misplaced book or trowel in the garden. It reminds her too much of John to the point that a tear had cascaded down her cheeks and she has yet to notice. She only did so when she heard a knock coming from the main door. Quickly wiping her tears, she opened the main door. “Oh, thank goodness you are here, Miss Auria,” Jack said with a smile. Behind him was Azrick who was finishing his smoke. “We came here as soon as we can, Mr. Tevyat said he obtained a new lead from the police.” Jack said excitedly, but his excitement

Aurora's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she unwrapped the gift, revealing a beautiful surprise within. Aurora's eyes widened as she revealed the gift - a stunning golden necklace, adorned with delicate, orbiting suns that seemed to dance around a central, radiant pearl, symbolizing the expecting mother. "Wow, this is beautiful, Alpha Ryker!" Aurora exclaimed, tears welling up in her eyes. "You shouldn't have!" Alpha Ryker smiled gently, his eyes crinkling at the corners, as he enveloped Aurora in a warm hug. "Stop being a baby, you're going to be a mother soon," he teased, stroking her hair soothingly. "Of two at that."

"This is why I love her. She doesn't care about status or power." From his corner, Kane let out a loud, derisive laugh. We all turned to see him approaching, his expression one of amused disbelief. "Seriously, Raymond?" he asked, gesturing between them. "This is the performance you've prepared?" Raymond's face darkened. "This doesn't concern you, Kane." "Doesn't it?" Kane countered, stopping beside me. "I've watched Aurora work tirelessly on this event for weeks. She's coordinated with seventeen different packs, balanced centuries-old rivalries in her seating arrangements, and personally reviewed every menu item for potential territorial disputes."

* * * * * When I opened my eyes a few seconds later, I gasped. "Holy cow...." was all I could say as I stared at the busy street before me. This is heaven. You can't tell me na-da "Melody, welcome to Aysgarth. You are finally home. " My aunt murmured, and I turned to see her smiling at me. Home... I am home... I turned again to stare at the gigantic building before me. It was already dark, but the lights from the traditional street lamps were enough to view the house well.

It's work. Then my eyes drift farther across the room. Ethan. He's leaning lazily against one of the armchairs, phone in hand, looking completely uninterested in whatever is being discussed. I retreat to my room. A few seconds later, a soft knock made me jump. Aurora comes in, a teapot balanced on a tray. “I thought you might like something warm.” “You really do spoil me.” “You need it, dear.” She sets the tray beside my bed before disappearing again.
