His Purchased Wife

Chapter 40.

Aurora POV:-

"Aurora, Oh my God! Tell me are you safe dear!" Susan asked, touching my face with her soft palm.

I nodded, words were too hard to get out of my mouth. "Oh, Aurora!" Emily stepped forward and pulled

me in her arms. I was crying happy tears by now.

"Aurora, Love, are you alright?" Dad asked me and I ran in his arms, crying in happiness when he

scooped me in his arms.

"I was so scared dad! I was so scared here alone. I didn't know what to do, dad…" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Don't cry anymore, love. I am here to protect you. I am here for my princess." Dad said in his

comforting voice which erased every fear in my brain.

"I love you dad. I love you so much…" I muttered and he placed a soft kiss on my head.

I was crying in happiness over getting back into civilization. I was happy to be in my dad's protective

arms again. I'm so happy!

"Stop crying, now and see what I bought for you?" Susan said coming over to me.

"What?"

She opened a small carton and my mouth watered over the sight of my favourite cheesecake. "Here

open your mouth…"

And I did. I opened my mouth but then everything turned foggy. The fog evaporated Susan, Emily and

My dad.

Dad! Dad! I called him again and again but he didn't speak. "Dad…" I tried to grasp his hand but he

vanished into the air.

"Dad…" I called him sharply but he vanished into thin air.

I knelt down in the sand, crying that I couldn't see my dad anymore. Suddenly I felt someone jerk my

shoulder.

"Get up!"

This voice! This voice belonged to that arrogant bull!

"Get up, you spoiled brat!"

Again the same voice but this time the jerk on my shoulder shook me hard.

"I said get up!" His voice was steel now and I opened my eyes.

Wait! Everything that happened was a dream.

"Got down from your high horse wife?"

I looked up at that arrogant bastard. He was looking at me with an unrecognized expression on his

face. Still, my toes curled in anticipation. Fear engulfed in my heart. "Are you a five year old kid who

needs it's daddy to sleep peacefully?"

"Shut up! And don't you dare involve my dad in our arguments, you bull!" I warned him ferociously.

Something shifted in his eyes. He assessed me up and down, "tell me, where are the fish I saved for

my breakfast?" He questioned and I gulped.

My heart dipped with a thud! But then I jabbed my chin out proudly. "How would I know?" I snapped at

him.

He grabbed my hand and pulled me closer. Took a whiff near my mouth. "Stop playing dumb, you stink

of fish! So tell me the truth, did you eat them up?"

My mouth hangs open. "Close your mouth, it stinks of bad breath!" He grumbled.

To hell with hiding the truth. " I didn't steal anything. I just took my share of the food and I don't stink, I

am a girl who has not taken a shower in almost two days now! I can't smell like a flower."

He cocked his brows, I looked at his perfect face and his minty breath fanned my face.

No wait! Minty breath??

I snapped my eyes up to his face and grabbed his sands with both my hands. Pulled him closer to me

and took a whiff. He ate the same fish for dinner like me, so how come he didn't smell bad and I do?

"Why are you not stinking?" I asked him sternly.

He raised his cocky brow. "Because I take my hygiene seriously unlike you."

Arh! The arrogant asstard. "Don't try to change the topic and start an argument. I ate the same fish for

dinner you had, my breath stinks but your breath is as fresh as if you had freshly brushed? How is that,

answer me now?"

His eyes flashed at my tone. "Do you need another lesson, wife?" He asked, getting into my face and

staring into my eyes. His voice dipped in a dark drawl.

I gulped in fear as his brute actions snapped in my memory. My fingers on his Sandow wavered a little.

"Answer me?" I asked but this time my tone was not as sharp as before.

He nodded as if forgiving me. "I don't answer anyone but considering you are my wife, you deserve this

privilege."

I am not your wife you brute! I wanted to snap at him but couldn't. I didn't want another punishment

from him. I wasn't a stupid girl I knew when to fight and when to shut up. Here, on this island, there was

no one to save me from this barbaric man.

So I decided to keep my mouth shut. "The lifeboat was stocked with a few hygiene kits. It has

everything I need from toilet paper to toothpaste and shower gel."

My eyes broadened. "You had hygiene kits with you and didn't even bother to share it with me, you

brute! Do you know how hard yesterday was for me without the basic necessities?" I growled.

He gave me a hard look again but I was enraged in fury. " Do You have any idea how hard it was for

me to relieve myself in those shrubs?"

"Who has been sitting on that high horse since yesterday? Who threw the fish into the ocean? So stop

blaming me for your own actions. You behaved like daddy's spoiled brat!"

And I didn't know what came over me but hearing him putting my dad in our arguments I lost control

over my actions and without thinking, without caring about him I raised my hand And struck him hard

across the face!

And I smacked my hands to my face.

Oh God! What have I done!

He placed his hand to his cheek, turned his head towards me and my stomach dropped. The look in his

eyes scared me to the core.

I'm dead now!

I took a step back, fear clear on my face. his eyes scared me to the soul. My heart was beating so hard

that I heard a cardiac arrest.

"I am…" I tried to apologize to him But he didn't give me the opportunity and jumped on me as he

captured my face brutally.

"You are going to pay for this. Mrs Knight!"
