Chapter 9 - how would you feel?

Aurora opened her eyes, and sat up on the bed, holding her head, she walked out of her room, searching for Derk, she swung his room door open, only to find it empty.

Her heart drooping down her chest, he was supposed to be with her, she was going insane at the thought of what was happening to her, she needed answers to what she saw.

He loved her didn't he?, then why wasn't he there to hold her and calm her.

She slumped on the floor , pleading to what ever god's that existed to help her else she would loose her mind.

The maid who had saw her ran into their master's room, had walked in to see the lady on the floor, miss Aurora are you okay ?

she asked her.

She wiped her tears to look at the maid, I would be in the parlor, please prepare a cup of hot coffee for me , she said standing up to walk past the maid.

She sat in the darkness in the parlor sipping her cup of coffee as she starred into the nothingness, Derk wasn't around when she had needed him, was he always like this in the past.

She looked to see the maid who had delivered the coffee to her, standing by the side, she called her , what's your name she asked the girl who looked to be in her early 20's , my name's Sandra, how long have you worked here Sandra ? she asked studying the girls expression.

Three years the maid answered avoiding her gaze , what kind of person was I?, she asked the maid who honestly knew nothing.

If she were to say the wrong thing she would end up getting herself in trouble as derk had already instructed everyone not to say anything to her .

You were kind miss Aurora answered the maid , Aurora stared at her, she was smart enough to the know the girl was lying and trying to avoid the question, don't my friends ever visit me before the accident she asked the maid , who was beginning to sweat.

You were very private miss Aurora, the maid answered, sit you must be tired of standing said Aurora for the maid to sit next to her .

Aurora looked at the maid saying, how would you feel if you were to wake up one day losing your memories?she asked the maid for her eyes to widen

You lost your memories?, the maid asked looking surprised, was that the reason their master asked them not to say anything to the lady.

Yes I did in a car accident I had three weeks ago and since them, no one seems to know or recognize me, she said to the maid clutching her fist.

Am so sorry miss Aurora, so if you would want to help me , I would like you to please tell me what you know about me, anything at all, she said to the maid almost pleading.

The maid looked around, she pitied Aurora but at the same time her job was also very important to her .

The master would be in a better position tk tell you more about yourself, replied the maid, how long had I stayed here before I returned from the hospital?

The maid had opened her mouth to answer for Derk to walk into the room, his eyes trailing over the maid as he frowned, what are you two discussing, he said grabbing the attention of the two women.

Aurora hadn't heard the sound of the door opening, nor his steps, so she was a bit startled to hear his voice , and the maids was even more afraid of being caught red handed with the miss , after they had been warned.

Aurora's eyes trailed over the man, his hair were ruffled, his legs filled with mud, and parts of his cloths torn.

Derk who was in a hurry to return and check up on the girl, forgetting to change into a new seth if clothes, following Aurora's eyes which was looking at him , he walked closer to her.

I ran into little accident he lied, signalling to the maid with his eyes to get out, and the maid left immediately.

Where where you?, Aurora asked trying to control her temper, I had an emergency he lied, which Aurora cleary knew to be a lie.

Duc you know the amount of pain I was in Derk she asked standing up to look into her eyes even though she couldn't with his height that topped over her.

I needed you with me, but you left me, she said hitting him on the chest as she remembered the horrible past few hours.

What's wrong with me?, I saw someone 's memory and it wasn't mine, there was so much blood and gore and fire she said as she tried to picture the memories she had releived.

The woman was killed, but it felt real line I was the one who was killed and burned, she tears tears rolling down her eyes

Derk pulled her closer to him, embracing her in a tight hug, you will be fine Aurora, it might be a part of your memories coming back he said.

It didn't feel like mine Derk, I swear it didn't feel like my memory, calm down Aurora breath, Derk said looking into her deep blue eyes.

Let's return to the room, he said leading her upstairs, he tucked her in, joining her on the bed, am sorry for not being there when you woke up he said half heatedly, a part of him was concerned about her and he hated it.

It was the second time , they slept together, and as usual the girl had held tightly unti him.

Aurora woke up surprised to find Derk still sleeping beside her, he was always a morning person, from what she had noticed.

He looked at the man his face was relaxed compared to the stoic face he always has, as she trailed her finger down his face .

Do I look that good? came Derk's voice as his smilled his dark eyes staring into her blue ones, good morning she whispered, morning to you too.

You are late for work she said and he smiled, I just wanted to be here when you wake up to make up for last night , he said which had Aurora's heart soften at his words.

Thanks for the concern she replied, sitting up , I would like to go to Equity law firm, the one owned by the one we saw last time at the restaurant she said for Derk to frown at the name of the wolf.

The driver would send you when you're ready he said climbing down the bed, I would be preparing for work he said walking into the bathroom.
