CHAPTER SIXTY-EIGHT
AURORA'S P.O.V
"Pardon?" Eli's eyebrows were raised as he tilted his head to the side. The rest had already gone forward except for Lucian, he was waiting.
I shuffled on my feet.
"Um...I just wanted to know what kind of Eli you were. Like Elijah, Elisha? Eli...Eli?"
He blinked for a few seconds then his eyes narrowed as he laughed, he shook his head.
"Oh I get you. It's actually none of that, you see. The full name is Elias."
"Elias? Well that's nice." I nodded appreciatively, he furrowed his eyebrows.
"Why the question if I might ask?"
Lucian sighed.
"Well, she forgot to tell you. But we recently discovered Desmond had a son."
"Yeah, and he was in cahoots with his father all along." I continued.
"And I happened to kill him....and his name was Eli."
"So, once you introduced yourself as another Eli, I just got stuck on that. But thankfully, you're Elias and not Elijah." I smiled at him cheekily then walked away to join the others.
"You have a lot on your hands, Lucian." I heard him tell Lucian.
"As if I don't know." Lucian answered in a resigned tone.
What did he mean by that? I didn't have the time to ponder because Mirabel dragged a tall, handsome young man with short blonde hair and gray eyes to me, a grin on her lips.
"Aurora, meet Shawn Red, my mate. And Shawn, this is Aurora, the girl I've been telling you about."
Shawn smiled and held out his hand to me, another hand wrapped protectively around her waist.
"Hi, nice to meet you. I heard you're the one who made her finally see reason to accept me. I'm grateful."
"Nice to meet you too. And please, I didn't do much. She already loved you so if you ask me, I did nothing."
"Well still, thank you." He grinned at me then gazed down into her eyes, they shared a moment and then he kissed her slowly.
"Thank you."
"No, thank you...for waiting for me." She whispered, her eyes on him and her voice breathy.
As I watched them, I felt a pang of loneliness in my chest. My eyes automatically searched for Lucian, he was standing beside Eli, Eli was saying something but Lucian only stared at me. His blue eyes were shinning and looking intense. My breath caught in my throat, his gaze was suddenly powerful, too powerful.
'Why don't we just accept him, it's been too long already?' Willow whined.
I tore my gaze away from him, albeit slowly and painfully.
"You're talking easily now?"
'Yep, I've finally stabled my link to you. So I'll be here all the time. Back to what I said, why haven't you accepted him yet? You can clearly see that he wants you?'
I bit my lips with a sigh, smiling at Jake as I was led to seat down. To my heart's danger, Lucian was seated right beside me.
"It's not that easy, I'm not still sure if I love him or if it's just the bond that's playing with my mind. I need to be sure." I told her.
"Aurora?"
I jumped as I suddenly heard my name being called.
"Yeah?"
Lucian narrowed his eyes at me and leaned closely, his manly smell wafted into my nose. Wood and rain. Is there a cologne that smells like that or am I just tripping?
"You've been absent minded since you sat down, are you okay?"
"Me?" I squeaked, noticing my voice was high, I cleared my throat and shook my head. "No...I mean yes. I am okay."
"Are you sure, maybe you're finally feeling the effects of your stay in that room, you sure you're not feeling tired?"
As he said that, he placed his hand on my lap and began to rub small circles on it. I let out a soft whimper while pressing my legs together because his touch was doing something to me, sending waves of pleasure to course over my body. What's happening to me? I haven't felt this way in a long time, well except for my heat, that is. But this...its insane.
"I...I'm fine Lucian. What are you doing?" I whispered.
He blinked innocently and tilted his head, I could see the side of his lips trembling, he knew what was he was doing. Shit! Asshole!
"What am I doing? I'm not doing anything."
Then his hand moved up to my lady center fast as lightning and flicked it before going back to my lap. I jumped, banging my leg against the table but I could barely register the pain.
"Are you alright Aurora?" Mirabel suddenly asked from across me, I snapped my head to meet her.
"Hmmm! I..I'm okay...I think..." My words came out in a whimper.
"My word, your face is all red and hot, are you sure you're not running a temperature?" Mirabel's mom sounded quite concerned as she looked at me, everyone turned to stare at me, including Lucian.
A lazy grin was on his lips as he kept moving his hand, then he did it again. But this time, he kept his hands on my center, his fingers stroking me through my jeans. I closed my eyes tight and took a deep breath, keeping my legs tightly together.
"I'm fine...it's just so...so hot..." I bit my lips to stop the moan that was about to come out. He was stroking faster now.
"Oh really, don't worry, I'll turn on the Air conditioner then."
I nodded as she stood up, the three siblings meanwhile, were still staring at me, their gases moving from me to Lucian. Even Shawn looked amused while trying to hide his smile.
"Stop it!!" I whispered fiercely to him, hiding my lips behind my hand.
"No." He shook his head and got even faster.
"Oh my god!" I moaned into my hand.
Suddenly I saw Eli and Jake sniff the air, then identical smirks appeared on their faces as they stared at Lucian. Mirabel let out a laugh as she winked at me.
"Get it girl!" She mouthed to me while pumping her fists up and down.
"You act fast." Jake grinned.
"Just don't go all the way here...the bedroom is that way." Eli joked.
I was too busy panting to answer them, Lucian's fingers were now stroking with irregular speed, I couldn't help moving my hips to match his movement, grinding along with his fingers. It was good, so so good. Maybe I should just let him? No! You can't let this momment of weakness take you....oh yes!
I shook my head, gritting my teeth enough to say.
"Mmmm! No...one...is going....to...ah...the bedroom...I think...I'm gonna cum..."
Oops! What did I just say?
