Chapter 83 Aurora Collins you'll be punished for troubling your alpha boyfriend.
83\. Aurora Collins you'll be punished for troubling your alpha boyfriend.
Damien dipped his face in the space between her shoulder and neck, and sobbed. He didn't care if he was standing on a street under broad daylight or with a woman that was a mysterious lover described by the news channels everyday ever since that capture of him holding her in his arms.
He just wanted to feel alive again. Feel grateful that she was back to him just when he wanted her— in his arms. And feel thankful alongside his wolf that she did not take any decision that would have destroyed his peace as well as life forever.
Aura was here. His love was here.
He encapsulated her in a tight hug, receiving a choking gasp from her mouth near his ear. She tapped her hands on his broad shoulders and slowly whispered,
"Loosen your hold, Damien, I can't breathe!"
However, he didn't listen. He only held her close to his throbbing scared heart that was still under the terms of stabilizing again. He did ease off his tight grip around her delicate frame, but only as much as she could use to breathe. Not letting go.
"Damien," She called.
Her soft hands slowly drew tight around his shoulders as she registered his rigidness and took a note of his sobs. She caressed his back with a soft grateful smile.
Heavens, he was back to being the Damien she liked. All possessive and stubborn, and a lover who didn't ever desire to let go of her. This was her Damien, the alpha she's fallen for. Her alpha.
"Hey, what's wrong?" It was after a long, strange pause when she parted her lips and uttered something.
"And what are you doing here, Damien? On the middle of the road… like this?" She raised her chin of confusion.
Alpha Damien's head shot up. His crimson rimmed eyes bore into hers complainingly as he tried not to let a growl blow out of his mouth. He couldn't manage though. Not only did he growl menacingly but also smashed a ball of his already-bleeding fingers in the window of his car at the backseat.
"Damien?" Taken by surprise, Aura froze at what transpired.
She quickly resumed her composure and cast a glance at his bleeding fist. It was a ball of melting blood. Drops drip. One. Two. Three. Constantly in numbers until it become a trail. She caught his hand in her cold ones only to have him jerk them away and grunt.
"First, you disappear for long hours, don't take my call or reply to my message, then return with a bleeding mouth. And then you have the audacity to ask me why the fuck am I standing here in the middle of a street like this." He smashed the same fist in the other window on the passenger's side.
Alpha Damien's sudden punch made her hands flow to her mouth. Tears brimmed Aura's eyes as she witnessed his outrage.
"You still want to know what I was doing here? I was mourning over my fate and holding myself responsible for your disappearance. I was grieving over your decision I assumed you made and left me. I was freaking scared when your car never appeared again in any other CCTV footage. I was fucking shaken." His voice cracked.
"I… I had various thoughts disturbing my fucking head and fucking emotions biting into my fucking heart. I was bloody scared, Aura." He turned around and looked at her intently, his eyes streaming with tears having the appearance of being molten lava surging out of his ember eyes.
"I was scared that I would never see you again." He said and lowered his lashes until her stomach and upheld a longing gaze. "And that baby I crave to hold in my arms and play with."
"Damien, I…" Aura cried, feeling his pain.
She attempted to curl her arms around his shoulders and kiss out his fears with her tender lips. She had no clue that her absence would hurt him so much. Aura had just gone for a few hours to clear her head. She never knew it would give him insecurities and the thoughts that she's left him to never return ever again.
That could never happen. She could never leave him or his mansion she has accepted as her home sweet home. Alpha Damien, nevertheless, showed her a hand of prevention and shook his head in a no. He didn't want her to baby him.
"I… I only went to the orphanage, Damien. I… I wanted to clear my head and return home fresh with new energy t-to face you. I swear I didn't mean to,"
"You could have told me, Aurora Collins. What's with your sudden evanescence and not picking up my calls or messages? Do you have anything to justify that?" Damien interrupted her and moved his shoulders in a shrug of anger.
Aurora bit her mouth, making him hiss more. She was stressing her hurt lip that drew his attention to her mouth.
"And what about this cut on the lip. Did it also happen in the orphanage?" She quickly released her bottom lip from under the stress of her teeth and shuddered.
She was somewhere certain that he would raise a finger of doubt at the sight of her mouth. He did.
"I was playing WWE with kids and one of them just hit me way too hard." She wished the ground would swallow her because he gave her a glare she couldn't resist.
"About not responding to your calls or messages… then it's because our phones were in the car and we were busy playing with the kids. Both of us. Oscar and I." She said.
Damien's eyes didn't reduce their intensity though.
It was as if they were screaming 'are you in the condition to play WWE?' as they darkened and peered at her belly again.
"T-the baby is safe, I swear." She had to be stupid to say that.
But she did and Damien growled followed by a crazy laugh, expressing his raw disappointment.
Aura closed her eyes in fear. Damn, his eyes were intense and the emotions they projected even darker. A tremble of sweet trepidation chilled her spine. She was liking his possessiveness but his bleeding hand and those terrorising eyes concerned her.
He needed to be calmed down. He needed to be ensured that she was safe. Their baby was safe, and the WWE was not as he was imagining it to be.
She hardly sat on her knees and let the kids crawl to her and try to push her down on the ground and count to three as if they were real wrestlers. In fact, she purposely tasted defeat so they enjoyed their victory against a grown up woman who was double and triple of their sizes. She was playing with seven or ten year old children. It was not harmful at all.
But who was to tell that to this possessive alpha. Hence, Aura innocently sobbed— correction, she faked her sobs to lessen his anger. He's clearly stated that her tears didn't sit well with him after all.
"Now what makes you cry?" He hissed.
Alpha Damien sluggishly dragged himself to her. He enveloped her in his bleeding hand and joined their foreheads.
"I am the one who had a mini heart attack. I cried due to stupid insecurities. It's me whose photos are going to appear in tomorrow's papers and news with cheesy and annoying headlines. Why are you crying?" He possessively hugged her by the waist as he directly informed her about cameramen trying to take his pictures behind her back.
Aura was truly in tears now. She didn't cry earlier but his words did. It was her mood swings taking a toll over her emotions.
"Hey? You can't be so cruel, Aura." Damien sensed the change in her sentiment and let out a nervous laugh.
Her mood swings are deathly.
"Am I cruel? It's you who does not want to look at me or love me. You don't behave as my Damien and you blame me for being cruel to you?" She slapped on his shoulder and he pretended to be hurt.
Then he smiled and pulled her closer. "I am sorry, I was just,"
"Just what? Scared? I was equally scared when you acted formal and distant with me. Do you even know how tormenting your ignorance was?" She complained.
"Oh really, Mrs. Hunter to-be?" Butterflies erupted in Aura's stomach.
That sounded so good. Mrs. Hunter. She felt the world glow brightly and kiss her feet.
She controlled her crawling smiles as he threw some fake anger with his narrowed cinders.
"You spent two months away from me in some other man's house. You wouldn't let me touch you or kiss you. I am the one who's been ignored the most. Who's suffered the most." He emphasized on the last statement.
"You are such a liar, Damien Hunter." Aura playfully stomped her foot on his. "You never suffered for I never let you suffer, okay! I did let you see me and you better not talk about ignoring you. I've always allowed you inside Rosario's mansion to have coffee with me so you could have more time to see me even if I was mad at you. I better not mention how you always managed to steal full mouth kisses and groping at the same time."
"And then you'd always kick me out. Should I be grateful for that as well?" Damien put some strands of her flowing hair behind her ear.
He drank her beauty silently. Her slightly puffy eyes. Those thick velvety lashes like Minnie Mouse twinkling at him. That cute nose turned a little bit red. Those eyebrows were like crescent moon. Her forehead he kissed lovingly. Her rosy cheeks. And then finally her lips.
Her lips! His mood suddenly changed and alpha Damien scowled angrily. He remembered her reason for being away for fucking four long hours. The mention of WWE and the dried out blood made his stomach churn.
Damien held her nape and crashed his mouth down on hers. He nibbled her lips and sucked at the cut. She winced, making it obvious that the hit must be hard and hurtful. He worshiped her mouth for as long as the dried out blood had not been sucked away along with some of her leftover gloss.
Having pulled away, he possessively held her waist, staining her dress with his still oozing blood, "Aurora Collins, you knew I love babies and desire to father them yet you kept the news from me for weeks. And even now you carelessly disappeared for hours, risking the life of my baby. You will be punished for troubling your alpha boyfriend."
"Huh, but…" He didn't let her counter and pressed his mouth on her parted one once again.
"No, you don't get to say anything. Not even a word." Having parted he showed her his stern ember eyes while his hands lovingly caressed her waist. "Your punishment is inevitable, Mrs. Hunter to-be."
