Chapter 94

Liam Knight was furious. His hands twitched to torture, someone, her. His eyes turned dark but he somehow turned around to not let her see the reflection of his thoughts on his face.

"I want to know you before taking such a big step in my life. Please be patient with me."

Liam squeezed his eyes shut. "Only thirty more days left, little one. I won't give you more than that, little one."

Aurora shook her head. "Love and acceptance take time, but let's see if you can convince me to marry you in a month, Mr Knight," saying that she turned to leave but Liam grabbed her hand and yanked her back to him.

"I am sure you will be crying while accepting my proposal, Mrs Knight."

Aurora raised her brows, "such confidence you have, Mr Knight!"

"Your husband is a very confident man."

Aurora nodded with a chuckle. He had been calling himself her husband for a long time and she started to like it. That you are," she said in a teasing manner but then in a completely serious tone. "Don't treat me like that again. I love you but I didn't like the way you manhandled me."

Liam nodded. "I won't treat you like this, I promise," He said.

I will treat you worse than this once your father's neck gets in my hands, daddy's girl!

Aurora kissed his nose. "I love you."

The left corner of his lip lifted upward. "I love you too, little one. Come here, you might not be ready to get naked but we can fool around."

Aurora poked her tongue out like a child. "Nope, I want my beauty to sleep, tomorrow is the rehearsal dinner and the day after that my friend is getting married so we are going to sleep like normal people."

Liam made a gruntled sound and went to change into nightwear after using his hand to state his physical need. He lost count of how many times he had used his hand in the past week. When he returned Aurora was already in bed, sleeping hugging his pillow.

He took the pillow from her and laid down beside her. Aurora put her head on his chest just like every day. "Are you not sleeping?" He asked.

Aurora chuckled. "Can't sleep without you. I was imagining your pillow and your alternate but you are more comfortable," she answered without opening her eyes and kissing his chest.

"Don't make me talk, I need to sleep."

"You need to sleep but are you sleepy?"

Aurora thinned her lips." No! But I want to sleep, now such!"

Liam chuckled and started caressing her hair making her moan and the sound of it made him horny once again and he ended up having a tent in his briefs. He took a sharp breath to control his urges.

Aurora frowned when she heard his sharp intake of breathing. She fluttered her eyes open only to find him looking at the ceiling with eyes squeezed shut.

Is he alright?

She pretended to close her eyes a little when she watched him open his eyes. His hand went under the quilt and he adjusted his reaction with a hiss!

Aurora's heart thumped wildly. Is he horny? Oh my god!

She heard him curse under his breath and just to torture him more she hugged him even more tightly.

Liam gritted his jaw when his body reacted violently to her closeness. He wanted to turn her around and fuck her hard and fast, just the way he wanted but couldn't, not without her permission. He was a monster but he was not that kind of monster. Not for Aurora at least, he was not.

So he tolerated her innocent gestures and showed his magnificent tolerance. Aurora couldn't help but feel pity for him.

He made me realize the truth about my body, helped me regain confidence in my body, the least I could do was give him a handjob to release his torture.

Thinking that she moved her hand from his chest to his proud manhood to ease the discomfort of his body. But when she was about to touch it, Liam's hand grabbed her hand and stopped her movement.

She opened her eyes and looked at him confusingly, "What are you doing?" He asked.

Aurora swallowed. "Trying to help you. I know you want a release, Liam. I can help…"

"No!" He said sharply, stopping her before she could finish the sentence. "I do not want you to do something you are not comfortable about, this is my problem, my body is reacting to your closeness, I will handle it. You don't have to worry about it. Now close your eyes and sleep," saying that he pulled her hand to his chest where his heart was and kissed her head, gently before closing his eyes.

Aurora closed her eyes but sleep was far away from them. She opened them back when felt him breathing rhythmically. Her heart was beating an uneven rhythm, the words he just said to her made her fall in love with him all over again.

She knew then that she was ready for whatever intimacy he wanted. A small smile appeared on her lips imagining his face when she would tell him that she was ready to move on in their relationship.

Every day she spent with Liam, a new face of his appeared in front of her eyes. She had seen his anger, his care, his sweetness and most of all his friendship. Sometimes she thinks how can a person be this beautiful in and out. Aurora sighed and moved closer to his body. "Tomorrow will be our special night, Mr Knight. I promise to tease you a lot before giving you the best night of your life," she whispered before closing her eyes because she needed that beauty sleep.

Liam heard everything she whispered and chuckled inwardly. Everything Liam does has a motive behind it. Aurora was an emotional fool and he used her emotions to take what he wanted from her. She would submit her body to him tomorrow but he wouldn't stop just there, no, Liam was going to own her soul, soon and she would submit it to him just like she submitted her body. On the bloody silver platter, willingly.

Meanwhile, Susan didn't know what to feel when Ralph kept holding her in his arms. He was drunk when he came to her house and asked her to get out of her clothes, just like that, there was no foreplay, no warning and he entered inside without caring about her being ready. Today, he was taking her frustration out on her, Susan could feel that she was being used by him in her own home.

Tears of frustration perked in her eyes, she didn't know why she was letting him treat her like this. Susan Kelly would never let anyone treat her in this degrading manner the way she was letting him do, her mind was playing tricks on her and she didn't know how to handle it.

After watching her father marry countless times and her mother dying alone in hope that one day he would ask her to come back in his life made she miserable. Susan watched her mother crying every night. When Susan questioned her father about this he slapped her, telling Susan to not interfere in his life.

Susan had lived her childhood in an environment she wanted to run away from. Her mother was never happy except for the time she spent with her but even then she used to hide her pain, she tried to be brave for Susan but that was not in her character. Susan's mother was a weak woman and Susan still couldn't forgive her for that. She cried and wasted her life for a man who was not worthy of her love or attention. That was the only reason she made sure that she would never be like her mother.

Unlike her mother, Susan was practical and bold. She thinks about sex as it was, a physical need not some stupid romantic theory like the joining of two souls and she was proud of her way of thinking but for the first time in her life, Susan was hating herself for behaving like her mother.

Her mother let her father use her, physically, mentally and emotionally. Even when he was married to her third wife he used to visit their home saying he came to meet Susan but he never cared about her, he used to hand her a few toys and then her parents went to her mother's bedroom. Susan's ten-year-old mind was not mature enough to understand what was going on behind closed doors but when she grew up she understood everything too well.

The hatred she felt for her father increased after that.

She promised herself that she would never let any man use her like that but today she broke that promise to herself.

She let Ralph Knight use her, he didn't give anything, today, only took and she allowed it to happen and what hurts the most is that after using her body he scooped her in his arms, took her to her bed and held her in his arms only to sleep without a word spoken to her.

Susan asked herself, what was she hoping for, a declaration of love? If she would have been the old Susan she would have ceased her thighs the moment the word Love entered her mind but she changed. Susan Kelly was changed the moment she allowed Ralph Knight to take her and today she wanted exactly what she always hated.

His love, yes Susan wanted Ralph to say that he loves her. she didn't need sex only, she didn't want to be in a Dom-Sub relationship with him, she wanted what her friends have.

A girlfriend-boyfriend relationship. She gave a lecture to Aurora about testing the water before swimming into it and here she had fallen for a man whom she knew only for a week.

"You are doomed, Susan. You are doomed to fall for a man like him," she whispered as she closed her eyes and waited for the morning.

Ralph opened his eyes sometimes at night. He frowned when he felt a warm body attached to him. He turned his head and found Susan in his arms. Her face was in his neck while their legs were tangled together.

He scowled thinking, when did he come here? Suddenly, the memories of the previous night ran through his memory as he recalled mercilessly he used her body. The images of her opening the door for her and him taking her against the wall snapped into his mind.

He recalled how he didn't even give her the time to adjust to himself and fucked her raw! Blood drained from his face, his body wanted to jerk away from her, self-loathing filled his mind. He facepalmed himself over what he did.

He tried to create a little distance between them but she moved closer to him and money in sleep. Ralph ceased all his movement and remained in that position so that her sleep would not be disturbed while the pain and guilt over these actions were eating him raw.

The whole night, Ralph was staring at the ceiling of her room thinking how similar he was to his father. The man hated his whole life over what he did to Ralph's mother.

In the morning, he didn't know how to behave with Susan, she was silent so was he, there was nothing they could talk about, he wanted to talk to her, apologise for what he did but he didn't know how to do it.

Susan wanted to break the ice between them, she pushed her hair behind her ear and cleared her throat. "Do you want breakfast?"

"Did I hurt you, last night? Was I too rough for you?" He asked.

Susan's heart dropped. What if she said yes to his Questions, what would he do then? Punish himself? She needed to know because she knew she couldn't be his stress beating toy.

"Yes, you did! I don't want you to be this rough with me, again!" There she started her boundaries.

Ralph nodded. "I am freeing you from this relationship," saying that he walked out of her bedroom leaving a heartbroken Susan behind him.
