Aurora's POV

A few minutes later, Liam came back, holding a glass of water, and sat down beside me on the couch. He helped me to sit up and drink the water.

"Are you better?" He asked, concerned, cupping my cheek after putting the glass down on the coffee table.

"Yes." I mumbled, looking at him in daze. I couldn't still believe that he was the same guy who I had one night stand.

"You look strange. Are you really fine? I will call a doctor." He said worriedly and wanted to grab his phone.

"No, I am fine. It passed." I assured him.

"Are you sure? It will be better if the doctor checks up on you."

"No need. I am fine. Don't worry." I gave him a reassuring smile. He nodded and placed a soft kiss on my forehead.

"Actually... I have to leave." I murmured, ruffling my hair.

"Why? Wouldn't you stay the night here?" He asked, puzzled.

"I am tired. It will be better if I go home and rest."

Liam frowned. "Aurora, do you really feel better?" He asked anxiously, grabbing my hand.

I gave him a warm smile, squeezing his hand. "I am fine. Don't worry."

"Then stay here and rest as much as you want. I will take care of you." He suggested tenderly and placed a soft kiss on my hand.

I smiled at him and nodded. "Fine."

He gave me a brilliant smile as he stood up and scooped me up in his arms in a flash.

"Liam!" I exclaimed, wrapping my arms around his neck. "Where are you taking me?"

"Taking you to bed to rest." Liam replied and planted a chaste kiss on my lips.

Once I put on the shirt Liam gave me to wear, I lay down on the bed. Liam pulled the cover over my body and placed a soft kiss on my forehead.

"Sweet dreams, sugar." He said softly and switched off the lights before leaving the bedroom.

I heaved a loud sigh and rubbed my forehead, lost in my thoughts. Suddenly, I remembered his tattoo. So the cute witch he was talking about was me. And the canvases... The girl who wore witch costume in the paintings was me. Oh my goodness! So he didn't forget me or our night together.

When I heard footsteps, I closed my eyes, pretending I was sleeping. The door opened and closed slowly.

Liam walked towards the other side of the bed after tiptoeing to the walk-in closet and back. Then he lay down beside me on the bed and hugged me from behind. He buried his face into the hollow of my neck, breathing in my scent, and placed a soft kiss on my neck, his arm around my waist.

The following morning I woke up in his arms while he was sleeping peacefully. I bit my lower lip, watching my handsome boyfriend.

How am I going to tell you about Luke, my love?

And your family? How will Serena react when she finds out Luke is her grandson?

And our relationship? Will it be the same after you know the truth or will it affect our relationship badly?

I sighed, depressed and caressed his cheek affectionately. Then I leaned towards him and placed a soft kiss on his lips.

"I love you so much, my Greek god." I whispered softly and pulled away carefully, trying not to wake him up.

After changing my clothes, I wrote a note for him.

'Good morning, my love.

I have to go home before going to the fashion house.

I love you so much.'

After putting the note on the pillow beside him, I tiptoed to the living room to grab my bag and jacket and left the penthouse.
