15\. Lingerie of his desired shade! Huh?
Aurora's POV
The chirping of birds worked as an alarm and woke me up from my sweet slumber. The windows to my soul were still fastened together as I yawned, stretching my hands above my head.
I felt something extremely soft yet warm at the same time. It was anything but my bed. I can say that with my closed eyes.
And as I undid my eyelids and looked at the warm thing under me— my jaw dropped.
"Damien!!!" I muttered his name, thinking that I was imagining him there.
I rubbed my eyes and tried to adjust myself on the comfy bed but wait, I sensed him twitch and then the next second, his heavy arm was on me. It made me fall on his chest with our lips just a hair-breadth away.
My eyes set agape, heart did a fluttering dance and the hair on my neck stood up in amazement. The perception made me smile widely given that it was Damien. My Damien.
"Damien!" my head spontaneously relaxed on his broad chest while my hands flared around his waist.
I missed him so much. I didn't think his face would be the first thing I would see in the early morning post my awakening.
I didn't even think that I would find myself sleeping on him with my head on his well built chest. I was happy indeed that he was sleeping in my embrace.
But wait, hadn't he gone to meet Ginny? He did.... right. Then what was I suddenly going in his arms!
Sadly I could recognize nothing and then only sought to take a look around ourselves only to find us sleeping in his room, on his bed and obviously with me in his arms.
Well it points to just one thing... That he might have snuck into my room, stole me in the tranquil of earny morning hours just so he could spend a good sleep with me.
He's impressive. I can't resist his charm.
He looks adorable while sleeping. Just like a baby. I wish that I could see his baby face every morning when I open my eyes.
It would be lovely to open my eyes at the sight of him sleeping beside our baby. Even better to watch him play and talk to our baby after waking up in the morning.
I was invariably moving on him and the continuous movements disturbed Damien's sleep and he woke up too.
As soon as his eyes met mine, my breaths ceased. Watching him staring at me I couldn't help but smile as he pulled me over his chest from the waist for a tight hug. On switching our places, he came upon me thus trapping me in his arms.
"Good morning, love." his large hand held my face and stroked it gently.
Damien bit my earlobe, making a series of pleasurable grins to erupt on my mouth.
He has distinguished how to bring a smile to my face!!!
This is what I love about him... He reads my mind well.
"Good morning" I merely replied and pecked his lips.
Huh.... I really don't know how I became so bold in front of him. And he acts as if it's common between us.
I'm getting used to him... Day by day.
"I'm sorry." While I was trying to not see red like a carrot, he whispered near my ear.
"I am sorry for yesterday, Aura. I know you've got many questions for me and I promise to ask them all genuinely." He refused to look at me while he fell short of words.
Though I wanted to cup his cheek and kiss his distress away, I let it continue. Curiosity got the best of me as I waited for his explanation. He actually doesn't have to explain anything to me since I have perceived the whole scenario already, I still kept mum. My heart wanted to listen to What he had to say.
"Well, let me start it right away without beating around the bush. You've heard Brian say it, so it's useless to make excuses." He said, biting his mouth.
"Umm, I was honestly annoyed. Your dress. That make up. Uh, the lusty gaze of my fellow guests and the remarks I heard during your stay and after your leave had me all busted up. I drank like crazy and at a point got carried away. So much carried away that when Ginny pulled me in a corner and started kissing my neck, I felt like I should... Uh, you know, just take her against the wall." His serious facade made me go stiff.
I could feel his emotions he must have gone through then. The vexation. Jealousy. Frustration. Almost all such emotions.
"But before I did it, I saw your face. Even my wolf... My crazy wolf warned me to not do it and I didn't." He softly said not meeting my eyes again.
He nervously bit his mouth and added further, "I didn't do anything with her. And her accident from yesterday was fake. She is fine. Ginny is a kind of a cunning woman who wouldn't even leave her Ex after break up. I think I told you that earlier." he flashed a forced smile in order to lighten the situation.
"Thankfully I have taken care of her. She will not bother me no longer."
I smiled and closed my eyes as I sighed. Can he really be so nervous? I was amazed to see this side of him.
I palmed his face with my hands and directed him to look at me. As our eyes met, I placed a tender peck on his forehead to insure that I was not angry at him. He relaxed under my touch.
"It's okay, Damien. You don't have to explain me anything. You don't even have to apologize either. I think I was at fault in some place too..." He opened his mouth to say something but I latched our lips.
Then after having parted away, I resumed, "I should not have put on that dress. Stupid me. I should have known your likes but I ruined it all. I wanted to impress you and I thought that dress would do it."
Heat crawled up my cheeks and I looked at his mouth while he intently stared at me. His look conveyed his bewilderment.
"How can you be so patient, Aura,
Like seriously! You are not angry at me nor do you want any explanation for my jerk behaviour, and on top of that you blame yourself for nothing. Just... How can you just be so patient?" He drew closer.
His breaths fanned my lips and fingers crawled inside my top. I was trying not to react but just when his scorching fingers came in contact with my skin, I moaned.
"If it was some other girl in your place, she would have printed her finger marks on my face for being so mean to her. You are just... Remarkable." He stated without looking away as at the same time his hands found her breasts.
We looked at each other with love. The roughness of his palm combined with the softness of her bosom and took her to a world she wondered even existed.
Damien inched closer and sought to fuse their mouths in a mind numbing kiss, but just then, three heavy knocks fell on the door, pushing them apart.
Damien frowned. He huffed angrily and punched the mattress right next to her face.
"Bloody hell! Why do they have to come right when I am going to kiss her? I swear I need a DND tag put up outside my door. Huh." He whined and I laughed at his cute behavior and asked him to open the door.
Obediently, he went and attended the servant at the door and in the meantime I hopped out of the comfort of the sheets in order to freshen up myself.
When I came out from the washroom I found him talking to somebody on the phone. He looked at me apologetically and I smiled at him.
He held an envelope in his other hand with an open letter. I bet it was related to some important business matter.
After disconnecting the call he pulled me near him and pouted. His hands made their way down to my waist while his head on my chest.
"Guess what, Aura?" he said near my ear and placed a kiss down my neck.
I moaned a soft moan and refrained from letting any more of them escape my mouth. Damien smiled at my restraint before his expressions clouded with disappointment once again.
"What happened?" I asked about massaging his nape.
"There's an important meeting in South Africa and I have to leave in sometime."
"Hmm, I see. I will help pack your stuff."
"You're not getting my point, Aura," He gave me a light jerk as he inserted his hands under my top, squeezing my waist.
"What's your point, Damien." I knew I was getting spoiled with pure ecstacy, I had the courage to tease him.
He hissed and kissed my neck roughly. He lifted my top until my white bra was visible to his eyes and kissed the valley between my bosoms while he pushed the bra upwards, freeing my breasts naked to his greedy eyes.
"The point is that the meeting would last for four days. Which means I'll have to stay away from you for four bloody days. I will have to leave you here for four fucking days." His hot mouth caught my pebbled bud and gave it a small bite.
"So what, Damien. It's not a big deal. If you've forgotten then let me remind you that I have been without you for months. Months without a single call from you or any update."
"I know that, Aura. Now the circumstances are different. I cannot live without you any longer. You have become an addiction."
"Really Alpha Damien?" Since he was being flirty, I tried to hit at it too.
I arched my back, pushing my nipple deep into his mouth. It definitely aggravated me when he refused to suck on it and stared at me.
"Why don't you come with me, Aura?" I was staring at him with complaining eyes when he asked me that.
"You want me to join you on the trip?" I reprocessed his words.
Am I dreaming or did he really ask me to come with him? All these years we've never gone anywhere together except his office. I was clueless and didn't know what to say.
"Yes, join me on the trip. It'll be fun."
Half of me was encouraging me to say yes whereas the other half of me was dancing in bliss.
I parted my lips to answer his question but just then, a message popped up on his cell phone. It flashed with a name that was too clear to unnotice.
"What's that?" It attracted my heed and I picked it up.
Since I knew his lock it was easy to access the message. Sadly, I regretted looking at it given they it was a followup reply from Emily Martin— a rising celebrity in the industry in today's time. And she had messaged,
'Darling, I've bought the lingerie of your desired shade. Come see me flaunting my sexy figure in it tonight! Don't forget to carry my favorite flavor condoms.'
His hold on my waist loosened when he viewed the message.
"I... Aura, I honestly do—" Earlier than he completed his phrase, I threw the phone on his face and got up.
I was hurt would be an understatement. The pain in my chest was even larger.
"Aura, trust me this is,"
"What do you think of me, Damien Hunter?" Having adjusted my clothes, I grabbed him by the collars and bellowed on his face.
"Aura, I swear I don—"
"A slut? A plaything? Sex toy? Yes, Damien Hunter, what exactly do you think I am to you?" I was literally shaking him like a maniac and he was shocked.
A hot exultant tear swept below the curve of my cheekbone and under my chin. I felt like hiding away.
"I thought you really wanted me. I was just stupid to believe that, Damien Hunter! Because a person like you would never settle for one woman. Not a woman who is a housekeeper." I screamed it at his face as I shook him even harder.
I wanted him to feel my pain. Feel what he made me feel like.
"I should have perceived this before. I wish I have coz you only want to mess around with me. Mess around until your lust is satisfied. I was just so stupid to think you loved me like I loved you." Letting him go with a jerk, I swept on the floor and broke into tears.
I kept wondering why it hurt so much but it was useless. I forever knew he was not to be trusted yet I did. The pain was not from being cheated. We were not committed to each other so there was no point of feeling cheated or getting cheated. But the point was that— he was messing around with me like a toy while I was bearing his baby.
Could it be any more vulgar? Perhaps not.
Tbc...
