Aurora Tempest : Her Revenge Chapter 1 Aurora

CHAPTER ONE - AURORA

I'm sick-that much is true. What I thought was the flu or a flyby cold has turned out to be something more. My body seizes suddenly and I cough violently into the handkerchief. My eyes widen with fear when I pull away the material and find it stained with blood.

"Aurora, are you alright?"

I don't turn immediately. Quickly, I fold up the handkerchief and stash it away in my pocket. A smile spreads on my face as I face Sylas.

"I'm fine."

He approaches me, his emerald eyes softening with concern. "Are you sure? You don't look so good."

I nod, forcing my smile to look more assuring even as I feel the fatigue spreading across my body. "Just a little cough. I think I caught something."

He gives me a disbelieving look. "It didn't sound like a little cough just now."

After being friends and partners for close to a decade, he knows me more than anyone else in this building. I lift my shoulders and square my face to hide my tiredness.

He stops a foot away from me, the afternoon sun lighting up his pale blond hair and sharp aristrocratic features.

"When was the last time you saw a doctor?" His voice though gentle sounds like a reprimand.

It used to annoy me when he talked to me in such a manner, then I got to know the real Sylas underneath the crisp suits and aloof demeanour. My gaze shifts from his face to the calendar on the wall, marked with red.

I don't have the time. Dorian keeps making doctor's appointments for me but I'm needed here. I've come to far to let a minor cold wreck my plans.

But it's not a simple cold, the thought sends a chill down my legs, and I feel the bloody handkerchief.

"I'll see a doctor next week, I've been busy with the merge." I say finally, watching his mouth press into a tight frown.

"I don't see how the merge is stopping you from going to the doctor."

I laugh dryly. "I'm the CEO, Sylas. It's my job to make sure everything runs smoothly. We can't afford to lose this merge and you know that."

"That doesn't mean you shouldn't take care of yourself, Aurora," he snaps suddenly.

On a good day, I would give him a proper fight but as we're talking, I'm growing more tired. It becomes a battle to keep my shoulders straight.

"I know." My voice comes out more quiet than I intend.

"And your husband?"

Before I can retort and tell him not to involve Dorian, he cuts me off.

"Hasn't he seen you like this? Doesn't he know his duty is to take care of you?" He spits angrily, fury etching sharp lines on his face.

For a moment, I'm stunned into silence. Sylas rarely got angry with me. Over the years, we would fight about company policy and investments but we did that goodnaturedly. There has never any badblood between us. We've known each other since we were teens and after college decided to be partners despite running two different companies.

I don't understand his anger.

"First off, don't talk about my husband," I say sharply, anger pushing away my fatigue. "I don't care that you don't like him. I love Dorian and he takes care of me."

"Look at you, Aurora! You're pale! If I were your husband I'd drag you to the hospital myself."

"But you're not my husband," I fire back.

"No, I'm your partner and friend. Your wellbeing is top priority."

"I said I'm fine."

Sylas sighs in exasperation and mutters, "So damn stubborn."

He narrows his eyes at me as if he could see how tired I am and shakes his head. "Go see a doctor after the meeting."

I want to argue. I have lunch plans with an investor but the hard glare he gives me snaps my mouth shut.

I allow my shoulder deflate. "Fine."

He raises a hand absently and rubs my shoulder. "Thank you."

I cover his hand with miine and a warm smile pulls my mouth. "Next time you yell at me I'll break your nose."

He chuckles. "Take care of yourself and we won't have a problem." A shadow suddenly crosses his face as his gaze strays to the large diamond on my finger. He slowly drops his hand and the grin wipes from his face. He gestures to the door.

"The meeting is about to start. But I can have them reschedule if you're not up to it."

We both know what's at stake. Even as he says it, I catch the hopeful sound in his voice. He wants me to be strong enough to have the meeting. Everyone depends on me and I can't let them down.

Taking a deep breath, I shove away the fatigue. "Let's do this."

By the time the meeting is done and the merge has been finalized, I can barely keep my eyes open.

The applause in the conference room makes my head ring. Everyone wears big smiles while I struggle to see straight.

I don't see Sylas until I feel his hand gripping my elbow, leading me away from the noise.

"Doctor. Now," he orders, gently putting me in the backseat of my car.

"Take me home first," I tell my driver as I lean back on the head rest, a haze settling over my mind. Dorian always accompanies me to the hospital. I hate going by myself.

With his remote work and his cousin visiting, he stays home most of the time.

Soon I'm stumbling up the front steps of our house.

"Dorian," I call out weakly. My voice doesn't travel far and I urge my legs forward.

I check the kitchen first and stop cold at the sight before me.

"Oh baby... YES...right there..." breathy moans pour out of his cousin's lips, her eyes closed in ecstasy, her hand digging into thick black hair.

Kneeling before her with his face buried inbetween her thighs is my husband.

"D-Dorian?"

His head jerks up swiftly and he freezes when sees me.

The Pierre Hotel smelled of old money and stale ambition, but all I could taste was the copper of my own rage. I stood in the back of the ballroom, a "mute" shadow in a silk dress, watching my sister Brande play the grieving saint on stage. She wiped away a fake tear, telling the crowd I was too "unstable" to attend my own engagement party. In reality, I was watching her share a secret, intimate squeeze with my fiancé, Chase Sterling, right under the blinding spotlight. When I finally hit "execute" and projected the video of them together in a hotel suite for the entire elite crowd to see, the room went cold. But the nightmare was just beginning. Instead of apologizing, my father crushed his scotch glass and told me to fix the mess. He demanded I issue a public statement claiming I had a mental breakdown and "hallucinated" the whole thing. "If you don't corroborate the Deepfake story, I'll have you committed to a facility with barred windows," he hissed. Brande just smirked from the corner, mocking me for being a "mute waste of space" who didn't even realize my own trust fund had paid for the diamonds around her neck. I realized then that in this family, silence wasn't a disability—it was a target. They thought because I didn't speak, I didn't have a voice. They thought they could use my silence to bury the truth and save their precious stock prices. They were wrong. I didn't just leak a video; I had the keys to every secret they ever tried to hide. I walked out of that hotel and straight into the black sedan of Julian Curtis, my father’s most ruthless rival and the only man who knew what really happened the night of the blizzard in Aspen. I handed him the encrypted files that would trigger a hostile takeover of my family’s empire. As the city blurred past, I looked at the man who held my future in his hands and typed one final message on my phone. "I'm not here to be saved. I'm here to be the knife."

I arrived at the hotel with Julian's favorite takeout, ready to surprise my fiancé before our big merger. But the moment I swiped the keycard, the silence of the hallway felt heavy and wrong. Inside, a red-soled stiletto lay on the marble floor-the same one I'd watched my best friend Lila try on at Saks last week. Through the cracked bedroom door, I watched Julian's back arch as Lila looked me straight in the eye and smiled, wrapping her legs tighter around him to mock my heartbreak. I fled to the penthouse to hide, only to find Grafton, Julian's "crippled" brother, waiting in the dark. To my horror, the man who was supposed to be paralyzed stood up from his wheelchair, gripped my chin with cold fingers, and forced me to sign a contract that gave him control of my family's shares. He knew about my mother's secret medical bills and used them to buy my silence, effectively turning my life into a calculated game of corporate chess. The betrayal tasted like acid, and the injustice of it all burned in my throat. My fiancé was a liar, my best friend was a thief, and the man now controlling my fate was a predator who had been faking his disability for years. I couldn't understand how everyone I trusted had turned out to be a monster. I was trapped between a man who cheated on me and a man who wanted to own me, with no way out and no one to turn to. But when Julian came looking for me, Grafton didn't hide; he stood tall, looming over me with a possessive glint in his eyes. "Help me destroy Julian," I rasped, realizing that to survive the Faulkner men, I had to become the most dangerous player of them all.

Hayley was betrayed by those who should have loved her most. To save their precious adopted daughter from a punishment she deserved, her own parents sent Hayley straight into a living hell—an infamous prison where survival demanded cruelty, and weakness meant death. Four years later, the girl who had entered those iron gates no longer existed. She emerged with a single, unbreakable rule carved into her soul: Every betrayal would be repaid tenfold. The day she walked free, the world trembled. A convoy of luxury cars lined the road. A legion of loyal followers awaited her triumphant return. Her father tried to buy her silence with money. But money had long lost its power over her. Her adopted sister hid behind sweet words and false kindness. But empty smiles no longer fooled her. Everything that had once been stolen would be reclaimed—piece by piece. When her parents attempted to tie themselves to the city's most feared man by offering their adopted daughter, Hayley's lips curved into a cold smirk. "Not on my watch." Backed by a legendary hacker, shadowy allies, and an entire prison willing to burn the world for her, Hayley dismantled her enemies with terrifying precision. Then the tyrant noticed her. "You're interesting," he said. "Be my woman, and the city is yours." Hayley raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "You want to own me? Survive me first." High society became their battlefield. Power collided with desire. Ambition clashed with obsession. In this ruthless game of dominance and temptation, only one would kneel first. The girl once abandoned in hell rose from its ashes, crowned by fire and vengeance—And in the end, even the most feared ruler in the city would bow, offering his empire to the woman who had conquered both hell… and him.
