Love Wins Over Lust novel Chapter 7

"Your breakfast is ready, madam," Paulina said from the kitchen counter as Aurora stepped out of her room.

She was alone in bed when she woke up. It was not the first time she woke up without him. They have been together for one month and there has not been a day when they have not shared a bed. Sometimes she used to wake up with him but on many occasions, she had woken up alone.

But last night was not a normal night, it was their wedding night. Aurora stiffened when she recalled what happened last night. Aurora didn't want to recall any bad memory, so she nodded at Paulina and had breakfast with her.

Her mind was focused on only one person, her father. She needed to talk to Thomas, he was the only family left for her now.

Aurora called him but he didn't accept the call. She tried one more time but once again, no answer. That scared her, the first thought that came to her mind was, what if something happened to him as well.

Aurora's breathing hitched. She couldn't lose her Uncle too but what if those people attack him as her father? She wanted to know about those people who hurt her father.

Aurora called the police station to know about the details. "Hello, police station, I am Aurora Kin…" before she could say anything the phone was snatched out of her hands.

Aurora gasped when she saw Liam standing there with an angry face. He ended the call and looked at her. "What were you about to do?" He demanded.

Aurora didn't want to talk to him after last night but now she had to, "I called the police station to find out the details of dad's culprits. I want to know if they found anything or not?"

Liam gritted his jaw, Ethan Kings has treated his daughter with kid gloves but at least he should have informed her about the reality of their lives. The girl was going to land them in trouble.

"You will not call anyone from now on!" He ordered her, putting her cell phone in his coat pocket.

Aurora frowned. "What do you mean, I will not call anyone and why are you keeping my phone in your pocket," she almost yelled at him in anger.

Liam glanced at Paulina who was doing her work in the kitchen looking down, she was loyal, he knew that a word wouldn't not get out of the four walls of the house but Liam couldn't tolerate anyone, especially his wife raising her voice at him. He was the monster in the eyes of the world and he didn't want a clinch on his image.

It was what he had earned in business. Liam raised a finger, "don't use that tone with me!"

Aurora was enraged. She wanted to know about the culprits of her father and she could do anything for them to get punished.

She pushed Liam in the chest. "What will you do? Hit me? Look Liam, I did what you asked me to do but if you think that I will sit here silently and behave like a sick wife then you are hell wrong. I want to see those bastards get punished. Give me my phone back or it won't be good for you."

"Aurora, calm yourself. You want to see them punished, they will get it but not like this. I will…"

She chuckled. "You will what? Take another advantage of the situation. You snatched everything from me, what more do you want, tell me? What? I don't trust you a single bit now, so stop lying to me anymore and give me my phone back."

Liam didn't want to lose control, not after last night because he didn't know if he would be able to handle his anger if she crossed the line again. "Aurora, I am trying to control myself, don't provoke me!"

Aurora nodded in anger and pushed him again, hard, "what will you if I provoke, hit me or Rape me like last night?" She yelled and that was it, Liam's eyes turned dark.

Before she could even blink, Liam grabbed her jaw and pinned him with a gaze that screamed rage. "Get out!"

Paulina didn't need to be told twice, she walked out without making a sound.

Aurora's eyes widened in fear. She didn't forget last night, she gulped in apprehension.

Is he going to repeat what he did last night?

"Don't use that word again for me when you wanted me as much as I did last night. You were aroused, the proof of that was in front of my eyes and under my hand. So stop lying to yourself about it. Do you even know what rape meant, Aurora?" He demanded in a cold dark voice that stopped her heart.

"You are lucky that I can control the raging beast inside me or you have not seen what I am capable of doing."

She only blinked, there were so many things she wanted to say to him, she wanted to show him the mirror of reality but words froze inside her throat.

Liam closed his eyes and turned his head to his left, inhaled sharply and once again settled his gaze back to her, "we have our reception tonight, the dresses, make artists everyone will be here in two hours. I want you to dress up like a doll, look at me admiringly, and smile at the guests. Be the perfect trophy wife. I know it won't be hard for you, your father has groomed you for this whole your life."

Aurora blinked, insulting her was one thing but insulting her father, she wouldn't tolerate his jabs about her like this.
