Kieran’s POV
Even after the sparring session had ended, I couldn't let go of the anger boiling within me. Aurora was left in my care and yet she was being treated harshly by Elias.
At this moment, I started to wonder what ordeal she must have gone through when I was at the war front. Elias was too comfortable and fearless.
When I saw him at the training grounds, I made sure to leave a few marks on his body, venting my anger because he was engaged to Aurora. I would have dealt him even more jabs if I knew he was so unruly.
The look on her face, the anger and the dislike when she faced Elias told me I couldn't let her go into that marriage no matter what. She would never be herself again if she had to rot with Elias for life.
But even though I had that desire, the elders didn't. Last night, after the ball, I made sure to consult the elders for a few minutes about Aurora’s marriage but their decision left me flabbergasted.
They were all against the idea of breaking the engagement since they claimed her marriage was for a reason they refused to tell. And they didn't care whether Elias wasn't good enough for Aurora.
Frustration fueled within me, angry that I didn't even know the goddamn reason why they wanted the marriage. However, I was definitely going to find out why as I would be resuming my office as the Alpha soon.
Knock!
Knock!!
A knock resounded from the door of the large dining hall and I groaned in response.
“Good day, Alpha.” The maids rushed in, carrying plates of different delicacies. I was served and quickly, I dug in, savoring the taste of the food.
I had taken a few bites when I felt a bitter taste in my mouth and my chest felt hot.
“Alpha, do you need something?” The maid quickly asked but I raised my hand to stop her from approaching.
The hotness in my chest ran through my body and in that moment, my eyes shut tight to fight the dizzy spell that overcame me. Immediately, I knew I had been poisoned.
“s**t!” I cursed, my eyes snapping up to look at the maid and I noticed she was gone. The other maids were gone too.
I needed to get out of the dining hall immediately and swiftly, I rose up to my feet. However, I fell back down, feeling weak all over. And at the same time, a certain part of my body started to gain strength.
Through my blurry eyes, I could see the bulge in my pants.
“Haha…” I gasped, letting out a small chuckle at the realization of what was going on. Women coveted me but I had made sure to steer clear of their traps but this was unexpected.
Bang!
A sudden push from the door echoed and hurried footsteps resounded.
My eyes caught sight of Aurora rushing toward me.
“Uncle Kieran, are you alright?” She touched me, bending over me to feel my forehead. As she continued to bend over, shaking all over, my eyes stared directly at her chest and her bust area which was clad in wet-sweaty cloth and it fueled the fire within me.
And when she continued to feel my body, I let out a groan, my control slipping away.
“This is not good. Let’s go to your room.” She whispered, worriedly.
I let her support me out of the dining hall and as my body rested lightly on hers, I saw through her wet clothes, the outline of her breasts and how they jiggled as she helped me.
I couldn't take my eyes off her as we got into my room and I sat on the bed.
“I will call the doctor–”
“Wait!” I groaned, dreading her absence. Now, I was facing her tiny waist and I didn't stop the urge that told me to grab it.
I did, pressing my fingers into the soft flesh beneath her dress.
“Uncle Kieran…” She called out confusedly. “What are you doing?”
She was confused, her mouth gaped open. However, her hands involuntarily went to my shoulders, holding me tightly. I took the cue to wrap my hands even more tightly around her waist and I rested my head on her torso.
At that moment, I knew I wanted her. Her scent, her presence brought me comfort.
“I need you. I want you, Aurora…” I whispered, looking up through the swell of her breasts. My palm slowly moved up, tracing the sides of her left breast.
“Do you?” I asked.
“Ye…yes…” She stuttered, her voice almost inaudible.
I was holding onto the last bit of my control and I just wanted to hear her say it.
“Say it louder…” I demanded, with a hard groan.
“I need you, Kieran. I want you. Take me.” Her voice held certainty that I couldn't misunderstand.
Swiftly, I dragged her down to my thighs, splitting her legs open while I grabbed one of her breasts through her dress.
“I will give you the best night…” I whispered in her ears, as my lips found hers.
___
The next morning…
A jolt from the bed, brought me awake and I felt a splitting headache with my eyes heavy and painful. With a swipe of my palm through my hair, and a shake of my head, I saw flashes of scenes from the night before.
“What was that?” I gasped, as another splitting headache hit, but this time, it was much more intense. I looked down at myself to see I was butt naked and the sheets were soaked.
“Oh, Goddess!!” I groaned, trying to recall what happened.
At that moment, memories flooded into my mind. I saw myself tangled in the sheets with Aurora. At first, I thought I was delusional but then I recalled her screaming my name so loud while I treated her like my little girl.
“Oh! s**t! What have I done?” I hurried off the bed, angry and disappointed in myself that I had gone that far with her.
She slept off beside me but now she was nowhere to be found. I wanted to go look for her, to ask her how she was doing. I could receive a slap to the face, but I didn't care…
I just wanted to see her.
I was scrambling around for my clothes when the door opened and the echoing of steady footsteps flowed into my ears.
I turned around to see a fair woman, dressed in a red dress with red lips and black wavy hair. Her smile was devilish but dainty. Her face looked familiar as well…
“Hello, Alpha Kieran. It’s nice to see you again. Do you remember me?” She smiled.
Of course, I did. She was my long-time fiance whom I had not seen in years.
