Thanks for liking it everyone...God, I always get nervous that I did something wrong or that you didn't like it but everytime I read the reviews I breathe with relief because you all say that you're liking it. Well here's chapter 12 and the next chapter will probably be her history at last. After 5 months both Erik and Aurora are really going to know each other more.
Chapter 12-Admitting the Divorce and Erik's Acceptance
Erik stared at her in disbelief. And soon she continued since Erik was silent and in shock, "Erik please don't be mad at me but what I have just told you is true. But maybe I shouldn't say 'is' I really should say that Louis was my husband."
"Either way you were married! Oh God, Aurora!" Erik said.
"'Oh God Aurora' what? Is it against the law for me to divorce my husband? Is it against the law to fall in love with a man who wears a mask? Erik, please don't shun me like everyone else did when they heard about my divorce. I needed to get away from him. Erik if you knew what he did what he was it would disgust you, I know. My heart was hardened by that man in there, my hope of a happy marriage with him was crushed right on our wedding night," she said burying her face in his chest. Erik heart ached when he saw her like this, crying, and asking him not to shun her. She herself was a broken soul that needed mending not just him. Erik soon felt glad that he had punched Louis mostly because Louis had gave this beautiful angel hell, when she needed to be in heaven.
"Shhh, my love, don't cry anymore I can't bare to see you like this," he said calmly as he soothing ran his fingers through her thick golden hair. When he heard her sobs die he smiled and pushed her away, his hands on her shoulders he looked into those tear stained eyes.
"Erik, you aren't upset? You won't look at me in disgust as though I shamed my whole family?" she asked and soon his thumb wiped a tear away.
"How can I do that to you? You who had shown me human kindness and love me for who I am and not fear what'sbehind this God aweful mask. I could never look at you in disgust, whisper behind your back, and shun you for what you did. My dear, my love, I can't help but think you're the most beautiful being on the planet," he said and he saw her smile.
"You're so kind Erik," she said wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him. That kiss surprised him but his arms went around her waist pulling her close to him.
"My little angel," he said against her lips before pushing his tongue deep into her mouth which she willingly let. His tongue wrapped around hers and a smile spread to the edge of his lips when he felt her suck hungrily on his tongue. He needed her so much but he couldn't have her now mostly because even though they have known each other for 5 months they both were holding in their pasts, and besides they were in a carriage.
After what seemed like eternity they drew apart. Aurora's breathing was ragged and heavily, as well as Erik's, but she said, "Erik you're the only man I have ever found that I can truly trust. At first I coouldn't trust you, you scared me, and you always seemed to well remind me of Louis; that was until I got to your good side. I now want you to know why I never told you or really anyone but Madam Giry and my father what had happened between both Louis and myself."
"Shhh, let's not talk about such things," Erik said kissing the top of her head.
"But I want to talk about it. Erik, I want you to know. I want you to know my past, but please Erik after I tell it to you don't make me repeat it," Aurora said and Erik sighed.
"All right, love, I won't make you repeat it, and I'll listen. But if I get angry I might as well just kill the bastard tonight," Erik said.
"Oh, Erik!" she exclaimed in horror. If Erik kills Louis he'll be hung for sure! I can't live without Erik! He's the only one, besides people I like, who gives me happiness and pure joy, she thought.
"No! I will not rest easily at night knowing that the man who hurt you is still alive," he said and soon she nodded but in her mind she didn't want Erik to go after Louis.
"All right here I go," she said with a sigh laying her head down on his arm for comfort.
