Aurora was in the back of the gallery, there was a small garden. She kept staring at the liquid in the crystal glass. Her friends would be searching for her but She didn't care, not at this moment at least.
She wanted to call her dad and ask him to make Kevin accept her offer but no, She would not do it but she would call him and ask him to arrange for a meeting with Kevin. "Arrogant owl!" Aurora sniffed.
"Bad day?" Aurora heard a voice and got irritated again. Another one of my admirers. I knew I'm beautiful and I didn't need anyone to tell me that. I'm tired of these flatters.
Aurora turned. Her vision was swirling around but she still managed to be sober at least in her voice. "Get away from me, don't you get tired. Go get a life!"
Liam was stunned. "I came to start a conversation..." he still tried to be polite.
"Oh f**k off dude, I am not interested in your stupid conversation or your ugly face so get the f**k away from me." Aurora snapped in anger.
And Liam had enough. Done playing gently with this vixen. He grabbed her hand tightly, "Shut up!" His eyes turned dark.
Aurora was in a rage. "Ha! How dare you touch me, you bull?" She shouted and threw the remaining drink on his face. He instinctively closed his eyes and his grip on her loosened a bit. But he didn't leave her hand.
The girl needed to be taught a lesson for insulting Liam Knight.
"Get your dirty hands off me, arrogant owl," Aurora snarled, attacking his face with her sharp nails.
"F**k" he cursed as her nail poked in his right eye. His grip on Aurora's hand loosened a little and she pushed him away from her, He lost his balance and landed straight into the water fountain, Aurora laughed seeing him like that.
The sound of her laughter pierced through Liam's ears as if someone had poured hot lava into them.
"Aww! Poor dirty pig!" Aurora mocked him "don't try to come near me again or will scratch your eyes out with my nails only," saying that she ran away from there, leaving the angry Liam behind.
Liam's nose flared in anger. He wiped his face with his hand. His one hand was still on his right eye. "You spoiled brat you will be punished for this, Severely punished."
He decided then and there that the vixen was going to be his wife even if he had to paint the streets of whole Canada red with blood.
"Don't speak too loud, Susan. It freaking hurts!" Aurora whined, clutching her head to soothe the pain.
"Serve you right, who asked you to get drunk when you can't handle liquor." Aurora cried in pain. "It angered me when he denied for the third time."
Susan sighed in irritation as well. "Yes, I know. I don't think he is going to agree to our offer anytime soon, Aurora. He has thought of himself as a God since he received that award," she said, handing Aurora a glass of orange juice and medicine to ease the pain.
"Let's go home, there is nothing left here anymore, Where is Emily?" Aurora asked, swallowing the pills in one go
Susan gestured to her room. "She blamed herself like always."
Aurora twisted her lips to one side, pouting in regret over her one more failing attempt. "I won't break my promise to her, Susie. We will open our jewellery chain even if I have to..."
"Relax, don't get hyper over this. Let me see what I can do but please go and shower we are leaving for Churchill in two hours."
Meanwhile, Liam's mind was still enraged with last night's incident. He couldn't get over the fact that Aurora ignored him, not only that she insulted him.
He watched the two men combat each other in the fight match. His nose flared in anger, he should be watching his man. It was after all a twenty million dollar fight but his mind was on Aurora's mocking smile when she threw him in the water.
Ryan eyes his son. He could sense that something was troubling him. "What's the matter, son?"
Liam fisted his hand tightly, his eyes turned dark in rage. His mind asked him to control his anger, other mafia men were sitting around him to watch this match. Men, who wouldn't shy away from putting a bullet in his head given the chance. He had to maintain an image that scared them but at this moment he didn't give a damn about any of it. All that mattered was Aurora.
She was no longer just a means to an end which Liam needed to get what he wanted. No, now she had become a thing Liam craved and everyone knows if Liam craved something he had to have that thing no matter what way he used to get it.
Ryan gestured to his other son, Ralph to handle the fight and went near Liam. "In my office, son."
Liam watched his father walking to his office, with an irritated look he followed him inside to the office. "What's with the sore face?" Ryan asked, cutting his cigar and putting it between his lips.
Liam raised his eyes and pinned them on his boss and father. He got this craziness from him. "I want her, Aurora Kings. In my bed, under me, performing the marital duties, father."
Ryan's brows folded together hearing the darkness in his son's tone. "I won't call it love at first sight. Tell me what exactly happened?"
By the time Liam finished telling his father, he was furious when the images of last night flashed in his memory. He looked at his father and walked to him. "You gave me the idea of marrying that girl. Now I want that girl."
"What are you suggesting, Liam?"
"You were right, marriage to that girl will solve all our problems. Go to your friend with the marriage proposal, father. I want it done sooner than later, the father-daughter duo has irritated me enough.
the father-daughter duo has irritated me enough. I don't want to waste my time on the girl more than I already have when I am fighting a war with that crazy masked man!"
Ryan nodded. "I will do it after the mafia commission meeting," he touched Liam's shoulder, "don't get a girl to ruin your mood, Liam. A beautiful girl comes with a prize, she is heavy on the mind and money both so we have to keep both maintained."
Liam raked his hair. "I want to get it done as soon as possible, dad."
"It will be. He won't be able to find a better husband for his daughter than you." Ryan said.
I will make you mine. Mine to punish and mine to pleasure, Wife! Till death do us apart!
