WHEN THE BEAST MEETS THE BEAUTY : CHAPTER 61 – 70
NARRATOR POV
Alex drove to Aurora’s place and was standing beside his car, then Aurora came out looking gorgeous in her spaghetti strap sequins gown with sweetheart metallic gold along with black heels that matched her clutch bag, with a little makeup and she styled her hair wavy voluminous pony. Alex couldn’t help but get lost in her beauty, he, too was looking handsome in his dark suit, brogues, and plain white shirt along with a pair of black leather shoes with a golden wristwatch.
“Shall we?” Aurora said jolting him out of his daydreaming.
“Um, yeah, am sorry, I was lost for a while, you look gorgeous”. he compliments and Aurora blushed. ” Let’s go”. He took her hand and led her inside the car, he moved to the other side and sat down and the driver drove off to the location Alex gave him.
Along the driveway, Alex kept staring gorgeously at Aurora making her uncomfortable.
“Will you stop staring, is making me uncomfortable”. Aurora said and they chuckled.
” I can’t help it, you are too tempted to be ignored”. He said.
“Stop flattering me”. She smiles.
” You look beautiful and I don’t think I control myself tonight”. He said and kissed her hand.
Their eyes got interlocked for a moment before the driver interrupted them by telling them they had arrived. They got out of the car and Aurora encircled her hand around his as they walked to the five-star restaurant, they were directed to the VIP lounge and Aurora was amazed by the view.
“This place is beautiful”. She compliments.
” Do you like it?”.
“like is an understatement, I love it!”.
” Am glad you do”.
They smiled at each other as the menu was brought to them, they picked their orders, and the waiter left to get them prepared while they engaged in romantic talk. Some minutes later, their meal was brought to them and was served on the table.
🗣”Enjoy your meal”. The waiter said and walked away.
“This smells nice”. Aurora said.
” Let’s eat”.
They started eating and having conversations with each other.
“Do you come here always?”. Aurora asked.
” Just once, I came with some business partners to have dinner here”. He said.
“Okay, that’s nice”.
They continued talking and laughing while having fun, soon they were done eating and diluting their meals with a glass of champagne.
” The meal was amazing, I love it”.
“Yeah, the food is delicious, but the company is even better”.He said and then he became lost in her eyes.” I love the color of your eyes, they are beautiful”. He said and Aurora blushed.” I wish to keep staring at those eyes forever”.
“You really do know how to sweep a lady off her feet with words”.
” Not when it’s mine”. he said and then the sound of a romantic song filled the air. “Would you love to dance with me?”.
“um, am not a fan of dance”. she said.
” I can teach you”. He stood up to where she was seated and helped her up.
Both were staring affectionately into each other eyes as Aurora’s hands were on his shoulders while his hand was on her waist and they were whirling slowly to the music.
“Thank you”. She said.
” For what?”.
“For everything, I never thought a day would come like–“. She got interrupted.
” You don’t have to, I am happy that I am hanging out with you” He kissed her forehead”All day long, I have been dreaming about having this dinner with you”. He pulled her closer to his arms. “Every time I wrap my arms around you, it’s like coming home to where I belong”. He caressed her face.” I mean what I am saying, Aurora”. He leaned his lips forward and gently pressed them against hers. She melted along with the kiss and then they broke out of it.

“Tonight was amazing”. She said.
” Yeah, I wish to go out with you again”.
“Sure, good night Alex”.
” Good night Aurora”.He kissed her cheek and she went inside while he left for his car and zoomed off.
