Alora spent the rest of the afternoon cooking dinner in preparation for Harry's return. He was meant to be back from Vietnam that night so his favorite dishes had to be made.
Alora had to wake Austin from his nap in order for him to welcome his father. He was the first son, after all. Only Dae was adopted, which was why he was a bit older than Austin and married too.
Alora quietly invaded the room and softly closed the door. The curtains were closed and there was no light in the room only the small stream of moonlight that happened to escape through the tinted window and passed a gap in the curtains. The stray light landed on Austin's sleepy face.
"Austin." She softly called out. "Mother wants me to wake you. Older Master is returning tonight."
As soon as she finished those words, the curtain closed, diminishing the small beam of light and plunging her into the darkness. She heard the bed covers rustle and a hand pulled her into the bed.
She inhaled sharply and struggled with whoever was pulling her Her heart raced as she felt someone press her head to the bed. She reached out and turned on the bedside lamp. Austin was staring at her and before she could say a word, his lips covered hers.
She gasped and accidentally, knocked down the lamp, shattering it.
Austin nibbled on her lips and she forcefully pushed him away and tried to run out. He grabbed her waist, pulling her into the bed. She felt something bit her neck, wrist and forearm. She shrieked but Austin hushed her.
"Be quiet." He growled and fear caused her to remain still.
His lips traced from her forehead to her waist and he forcefully ripped her blouse, and instinctively, she pulled a blanket over her bare tummy. He snatched it away and touched her skin. His hand felt like a thousand suns burning her fleshed.
She whimpered and held his hand. "Austin, please." She whispered, tears cascading down her face. "Don't do this."
He kissed her before biting her neck and then got up. "Get dressed and hurry downstairs." He switched on the light and she hid behind a blanket. "Don't let me meet you."
She shot up and ran to her closet, picking out the best dress to wear. She made sure that it covered her neck, wrist, arm and anywhere that Austin had bitten. Without wasting a second, she followed Austin out of the room. She had to cook up pretty good lies.
