Love Wins Over Lust novel Chapter 14

Aurora was crying during the shower, what she did last night was against the principles her mother taught her. Her eyes went to her shoulder in the mirror, he left a big hickey there. Aurora gulped down the tears and rubbed her body to clear his touch.

Her heart aches because somewhere deep she still wanted him to be the old Liam again. She glanced at her face in the mirror. "I will not back down, not after last night. I will not back out from any challenge he threw at me now because I want him to suffer the same pain I went through."

She towel-dried herself and walked out of the bathroom wearing the silk nightdress that reached her thighs.

He craved my body, he can have it anytime he wants because now it's not him who was lying to achieve something, this time I was the one with a hidden motive.

Liam was still in bed when Aurora stood in front of the mirror, she was blow-drying her hair and its sound woke him up. He blinked his eyes a few times and watched the blonde temptress wearing a short silk nightdress which left a little to the imagination, her golden blonde locks mesmerised him and Liam inhaled sharply.

Liam Knight had never in his life been driven by his balls but this woman had changed that. Now he was nothing but a randy teenager who just wanted her every time he saw her. The past week he spent without touching her even when she was within his reach had been a blow to his ego but now that she had agreed to share his bed he was not going to hold back.

He would have her willingly because he wanted to see when she would ask him something in return and if he had his guess right she was going to ask about meeting her father.

He got off the bed and went to her, grabbed her by the hips and pulled her closer.

Aurora gasped when she felt a hot breath in her neck, he was looking at her, their eyes met in the mirror and they stared at each other for a long minute. Aurora swallowed and leaned into his chest, putting on a soft smile to her face she kissed his chin. "Good morning baby."

Liam nodded. "Good morning, Little one."

Her smile widened and she turned into his arms, locked her hands to his neck and peered into his eyes through her lashes, trying to charm him. "I was thinking about having breakfast together like we used to do."

He once again gave her a curt nod."As you say. Let me have a shower and then we can have breakfast together in bed."

Aurora smiled and placed a soft kiss on his cheek. "Go and take a bath till I get dressed."

"There is no need to get dressed, you are not going anywhere and I like what you are wearing. Let's say, it's perfect for what I planned to do with you."

Aurora's heart thumped hard in her chest. "And what have you planned to do with me?"

Liam chuckled at her teasing tone. He turned her face and went near her ear. "I planned to fuck you again, you have woken up a hungry beast by showing your little ass, Little one. Now you are going to pay for it."

Aurora's lips formed an 'o', her eyebrows lifted and she nodded. "Who says I will let you have me again after last night, you tired me badly, sir?" She teased him by pulling his face near her.

Liam chuckled, "I am going to feed you first, little one. Don't worry about your energy level."

Aurora pinched her lips in a thin line and slapped his chest teasingly. "You are bad!"

"Very bad, actually, little one." He kissed her lips softly before pulling out of her arms and walking to the bathroom for a shower.

Aurora closed her eyes tightly in disgust and swallowed the dryness. She sighed deeply before going to the bed and settling inside. Today, Aurora felt like a whore who was selling her body for money but in her case, she would not be getting any monetary benefit, no she would be getting her freedom back.

When Liam came out he was dressed in nothing but a bathrobe. His wet black hair was combed back neatly. "Paulina has not brought the breakfast tray yet?"

Aurora shrugged her shoulders. "I would have called her but the intercom is not working and I don't have my phone with me."

Liam raised his eyebrows. He walked to the bed and sat beside her, "it's for your own good, Little one, it will be good if you remain absent from the outer world," he said gazing into her eyes and could see the glimpse of rebellion in her eyes.

"Tell me what you want to eat, I will order for you."

"Bacon and pancakes with maple syrup," she replied and turned her gaze to the window. She tried to ignore the feeling of humiliation she felt by his words.

"Hurt?"

She looked at him. "Why would I be hurt, Liam?" She snapped, not able to control her anger but then sighed and shook her head. "Why are you doing this? Have we not talked about it last night? What more do you want from me, Liam?"

He clasped her jaw and raised her face. "I am just telling you that it doesn't matter if you have surrendered yourself to me, Aurora. It doesn't matter if you have cried in front of me but I won't give you your freedom back, so you can stop this charade if you want."

A hot red fury ran through her body and she pushed him away from herself. She didn't know what came over her but all the anger and frustration she had bottled inside her burst out and she slapped her face, hard. "You are disgusting!"

Liam's face turned right through the impact of the slap. He gritted his jaw and turned his face to her. The look in his eyes scared her to the core, she asked, seeing the darkness in his gaze, "I am so sorry, I didn't mean to…" she couldn't finish her sentence when he held her jaw tightly in a bruising grip.
