Aurora stood up from the bed when the door of her room opened. She expected Paulina to bring dinner for her as it was the time for dinner and Paulina opened the door two times that day since morning, one to bring her breakfast and one to bring her lunch.
She was locked in this room as if she was a cattle locked in an iron cage. But it was not Paulina, no, it was that Lying deceptive animal, Liam Knight and seeing in Aurora's anger rose as she pointed towards him with fisted hands.
"You lying deceptive owl! How dare you lock me up here with your goons standing outside the door. You heartless bastard!"
Liam raised his brows, "I hope you enjoyed your day, Little one," he said in a mocking tone and that made Aurora even more furious.
Aurora lunged at him. Her sharp nails scratched his cheek, Liam hissed when he felt her nail cutting his cheek. He grabbed her hand before she could do any more damage and twisted them behind her back.
Tears of frustration perked into Aurora's eyes when she couldn't free her hands. Aurora left a shriek in anger and irritation, making Liam jerk her, "stop it," he snapped and scooped her in his arms and took her to the bed. "Leave me, I don't want to be with you!" She shouted in anger.
Liam only smiled. "Bad luck, Little one because now you have to live with me till the end of our life."
Aurora stood up and faced him, "how could you do all this to me, you will be punished for all this, Liam. If my dad or uncle Thomas comes to know about it…"
"Let's not talk about your precious father, Mrs Knight. He is good for nothing nowadays and your dear Uncle Thomas is busy taking care of business. So you have no one who can help you and even if you do, how would you contact them? Your phone is with me, you don't have any kind of computer here. The intercom is dead and more importantly, you will be locked in this room till you learn your place in my world," he said with a smirk on his face and turned to go to the bathroom for the shower but Aurora moved and stood before him.
"What do you mean locked? You can't lock me here forever? If my dad and uncle come to know about it they will ruin you!"
He chuckled. "You don't know your husband, Little one. You dared me to do my worst in punishing you, so I just respected your words. You said you don't want to be with me, guess what, now you have only me in your life, you don't have any life outside this door, You want to leave me, now you are stuck with me, Aurora Knight."
Aurora went numb. Who is this man? She thought. Liam grabbed her hand and pulled her closer, "You will suffer for every word you said to me last night, Little one." He pushed her away from him, went to take a shower and when he came back, Paulina was there with the food trolley.
Aurora didn't even glance at the dinner, she was still standing where he left her. Liam grabbed her hand and took her to the sofa, she walked with him like a lifeless body and settled on it beside him.
"I am not your enemy, Little one, I just want to punish you for your tantrums."
Aurora looked at him with disgust. Who was he to punish me?
"Open your mouth, Little one," he said, offering her a piece of steak, Aurora glanced at his fork and then at him. What had she done to her life by agreeing to marry him?
Liam eyed her face which lost all the colour, if only she had come to him willingly if only he wouldn't have done all the drama. It irked him, everything he did for her against his wishes, just for the sake of peace and his father's friendship. Now, she had to go through the same disruption her father made him go through.
Liam sighed and pushed the fork to her lips, forcing her to open her mouth and took the steak in her mouth.
Liam smiled seeing her eating, his eyes travelled to her neck, he could detest her all he wanted but her body made him hard, only she could do that to him.
Liam's hand craved to touch her, he eyed her thighs, the creamy-white skin was making her irresistible, he touched her calf slowly and moved his hand north on her leg reaching her thighs, he wanted to be lost in her body.
Aurora felt his hand on her skin and she stood up abruptly, disgust and anger mixed giving birth to uncontrollable fury. "Stop touching me!"
Liam fisted his hand and stood up, "you are my wife, Little one, who else should I touch if not you? Or do you want me to sate my physical hunger with someone else?"
Aurora's heart thumped. She was seeing a new face of Liam every day. He was continuously breaking her with his disgusting words and actions. She swallowed and took a step in his direction. There was a limit to everything, she couldn't take it anymore. "Do whatever you want but don't touch me, I am not a whore you can molest anytime you want just to sate your disgusting needs."
Liam's eyes flashed. "My disgusting needs," he chuckled. "I can make you scream my name in less than five minutes, Little one."
"Such confidence you have over yourself but let me clear this misunderstanding, I will never scream your name again because you don't meet my standards anymore."
Liam clasped her waist tightly, when Aurora tried to squirm out if his grip he held her face too, "your standards, let's see if I can match your standards still or not?"
