15 Lucien...

"No!!! My food is gone!!!!!" Aurora yells dramatically.

Aiden who discussing something with his guards flinched. They exchange looks and look toward the kitchen.

"What the hell was that?" Aiden said.

"I think, that is Miss, boss." The guard said.

He nods and signs the guards to go. He also toward the kitchen and saw Aurora looking at him with glares while her arms crossing.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that?" He raising his eyebrows.

"Did you eat my food!?" She yells.

Aiden looking at her with confusion. "What food?" He asks.

"My pasta!! I didn't eat it yesterday because I'm not hungry. So I.out it inside the fridge. But now it went!!!" Aurora stomps her feet.

Somehow, it makes Aiden chuckles. She looks like a kid who lost her candies. Aurora glares at him.

"I'm sorry. It just that...you look so cute when throwing your tantrum." He grins at her.

She gasps and feels hot on her cheeks. "S-Shut up!! Now, where is my food!?" Aurora changes the subject.

"Okay, kitten. Relax. Jake is the one who eats it." Aiden spilled it out.

"What!?"

"He thought it was mine. When I about to told him it was not, he already ate it." He explains.

She let out a loud groaning sound. At first, she thought she wants it for today's breakfast but it looks like she can't have it. Aurora pouting her lips while looking down.

Aiden stares at her with a soft smile. He felt glad that she being comfortable with him even just a little bit. Suddenly, a guard came and whispers something to him.

"Okay." Aiden nods and turns to Aurora. "Kitten, we have to go. You don't want to be late, right?" He speaks as he grabs her bag.

"Ughhhh!!! I need breakfast!!" Aurora throws tantrums. He went towards her and grabs her hand before bring her along.

"Stop throwing tantrums and I will buy you breakfast at McDonald's." Aiden spokes.

*At School*

Aurora eating her lunch while waiting for the ring bell. When she think again, she couldn't believe that she throws tantrum in front of Aiden.

Out of a sudden, someone sits in front of her.

"Good morning, sis!!" Lucien smiles brightly at her. Aurora didn't look at him at all.

"Wow. McDonald. Can I have a bite?" He asks. No response from her.

"Aurora?" He calls her name.

Aurora stood up and walks away. She still couldn't stand to talk or meet him. After everything happened, she still couldn't. How could her mother do this to her?

Lucien follows her from behind and tries to reach her out.

"Aurora, talk to me." He said. All the students looking at them. Who wouldn't after knowing that Aurora related to Aiden? She just shakes it off and continues walking.

"Hey, I know you wouldn't talk to me but please!! Hear what I want to say to you!! Just talk one word and it enough!!" He sounds desperate.

Still, Aurora didn't give any word or glance at him. Lucien becomes irritated and grabs her wrist. She flinched when a sudden skin contact from him.

"I wouldn't let you go, not until you talk." He said. She knows she couldn't get away from him.

"What? You think I will accept you!? Hey!! I told you before that I WILL NEVER EVER accept you!! Can't you understand!?" She yells.

"Aurora, you saying that because of your mother. Because of your anger toward your mother, causing you like this." Lucien speaks gently.

"Stop thinking that you know enough!!!" Aurora pulls her wrist. "Doesn't men my mother marry to your father, I'm your step sister. I have no related to you AT ALL!!"

She turns around and about to walks away but the figure in front of her makes her body stiff.

"Aurora?" Lucien calls. He went beside her and look at where she looks.

"Mum?" He gasps.

There she is, standing in front of them. She only has blank look on her face. There is no love in her eyes when saw Aurora. Lucien furrows his eyebrows and hates it when she comes at a time like this.

"Mum, what are you doing here!?" He yells.

"I come here to meet your teacher but..." Her eyes trailed to Aurora.

"Luci, I told you not to meet this girl. Am I not clear enough?" Her voice sounds calm but anger inside.

Lucien step in front of his step-sister. "You have no right to tell me what to do." He said in a stern voice.

"I'm your mother!!! That girl will manipulate you!!" She steps closer to them.

"No mum!! Aurora is a sweet girl. It was the opposite of what you told me about her!!" He talks back. Aurora frowns and looks at him. "You told me she such slut and the one who sell body around guy. When I heard you say that, I know your wrong!!"

Aurora turns to her mother with a sad look. "You told him that?"

"What do you expect? I never like you as my daughter. The same goes with your father." Her mother scoffs.

"That why you leave me with that monster. And have a happy life on your own." Aurora spokes with a shaking voice. She already on the verge of crying.

"Stop with the drama, Aurora. You have nothing. You don't deserve to be anywhere. Well, where do you live now? Still at that monster house? Being abused? Pity you " Her mother chuckles.

"MUM!! ENOUGH!!" Lucien yelling at her.

Aurora feels a huge pank on her heart. She doesn't know why it has to be like this. Is it true what she told her? She doesn't deserve to be anywhere? Even Aiden?

Her hand clenches into a fist as she felt her heart beating so fast. Something stuck in the lungs.

"Oh. Looks like this pathetic having a panic attack." Her mother speaks with a sarcastic tone.

"Aurora!!" Lucien holds her as she falls on her knees.

Suddenly, her mother saying something...

"Giving birth to you is a big mistake I ever did." She said.

With that, Aurora could control anymore. Her mother walks passing them. Lucien just stays there and helps her. Her breathing becomes heavy and unstable.

"Hey, calm down. Take a slow breath. I'm here." Lucien's voice makes her look at him.

"Follow my action. Trust me, please." He pleaded. Aurora knows she won't have any choice. Aiden is not here either.

Not long after that, she follows his action. Breath in and breath out. In and out. They keep repeating it until her breath stable.

"There you go." He smiles. Aurora didn't say anything but wanted to pass out.

"Aurora!!" The last thing she heard before the blackout.
