Billionaires Baby Mama

I'm Aurora Tang. My mum's from China and my Dad from America so that brings me. An half bread.

I'm pretty sure it's obvious why we're carrying the surname of my mum. She's super powerful and her own husband is under her and has got no say of his own.

Maybe that's the reason I'm always being mistreated for no apparent reason. What's my crime? Not partaking in their silly power struggle?

I'm hated by my mum,dad,older sibling and even twin sister. I bet my life can't get worse than it already is....right?

Again,I was all alone,locked up in my room. It's been that way for years. From my room off to school and from school back into this hell hole.

"Meow"Snowy,my loyal cat meowed curling itself in my lap.

"I guess it's just me and you in our own small world huh?"I let out a sad smile as I rubbed on her white fur.

My phone rang and I reached out to pick it from the edge of my bed.

"Steph?"a small smile found it's way on my face.

Surprisingly, Steph's the only one who picked interest in me without seeing me as weird or something. He's the only one who really loved me genuinely,well apart from Andy my bestie and I loved him so much for that.

"Hey Stephen"I smiled into the phone rubbing on Snowy who made low noises.

"How're you doing princess?"he asked making me blush slightly.

"I'm fine thanks. Why'd you call?"I asked curiously knowing he never calls except when he's about going to bed and it's still quite early.

"Nothing serious just wanted to remind you,it's my birthday today"he started and I felt so terrible immediately.

"You didn't tell me. Happy birthday Steph"I spoke lowly still feeling guilty.

"Thanks. So I was kinda wondering if you could come over. I just wanted to spend tonight with you"Steph spoke and I could tell he was hoping I said yes.

Staring at the locked door,I sighed. "I... I'm sorry Steph but I can't"I spoke with my eyes getting moisty.

"It's...it's fine. Good night Rora"he hung up. It's obvious he's mad but there's nothing I can do anyways.

"Grrr"Snowy snuggled closer to me as if to console me.

A knock on my door made my endless thinking come to a halt.

"What is it?"I asked in my small voice.

"Young miss, dinner is ready"a maid spoke making me roll eyes.

"Then come in and drop it"I spoke bluntly.

"Mrs Tang orders your presence in the dining room"she spoke and my heart jumped.

The last time I ate with the family,I was brutally humiliated. I doubt today is gonna be any different.

"I'll... I'll be right there"I spoke and dashed into my bathroom to take a thorough bath.

I obviously don't want to get kicked for having some sorta smell do I? I threw on a yellow fled gown and took a deep breath before walking out.

Taking slow strides,I walked down the stairs and headed for the dining room where everyone was seated.

As I walked in, everyone stopped their business to look at me.

"Good evening everyone"I bowed slightly and no one replied. Not like it's new anyways but the intimidating stares were uncomforting.

"Here comes nothing"I moved and sat down close to my twin,Dora.

I slowly started eating,seriously wishing no one talked to me tonight.

"How's college treating you Aurora?"uncle Fallon, dad's brother asked and I swallowed.

"It's going....fine I guess. At least I'm surviving"I replied focusing all my attention on my food. I seriously hate this kinda attention.

I could hear him nod and I almost sighed in relief when Dora suddenly snickered.

"If your doing fine means going round college and flirting,then I guess you're really fine"she spoke loud enough for everyone to hear.

"What do you mean Dora?"my elder brother, Jaden asked the question on everyone's mind and I literally felt like vanishing.

What the hell was this sister of mine saying? Flirt? A whole introvert like me, flirt? I'm speechless right now.

"Y'all heard me right. Your little innocent fairy keeps on stealing the attention of the hot guys in school and she's obviously enjoying it"I turned sharply to look at her.

"I'm a victim of being bullied by them Dora and you know this"I tried bailing myself out.

"ENOUGH!!!"mum's voice sounded and there it was. Silence.

"I called you down here for a reason Aurora and I'm sure you know it"she started, majestically handling her cutleries without sparing me a glance.

I could feel my heart race so much as sweat gathered on my forehead and my hands ran cold. What awaits my future? Of course it's meant for my wealthy mother to decide.

"You, Aurora Tang,are getting married. Soon"she spoke after a long moment of silence and my heart stopped for a minute.

Wait. Marriage? Please tell me I misheard her.

"Getting married? But....mum,I'm only 18. I only entered college few months ago. Marriage can wait till I'm done schooling"I spoke selecting my words carefully in order not to annoy her.

"Can you hear yourself?"she scoffed.

"You've been living under my roof, for free! I cloth you,feed you,provide for your every need. And yet you can't do a simple favor of marrying someone since it'll benefit me?"she snapped scornfully.

Am I even this woman's child? How could she want to marry me off for her own selfish reasons? But then,it's not like I've got a choice anyways.

"Mother,my elder sister isn't even married yet and she's done with her schooling already"I spoke causing Selene,my big sister,to glare at me.

"The girl you're talking about,is single handedly managing all my boutiques scattered all over the country. But you, you're just so useless to me"mother spoke hatefully and I flinched a bit.

"Calm down love"my dad spoke for the first time this evening.

"Don't tell me to calm down! You're just like her, equally useless"mother snapped, breathing heavily due to anger.

"I'm sorry mother"I bowed my head lower to avoid meeting eyes with her.

"You will marry whosoever I bring you. You don't have a say"she spoke after collecting herself and I nodded.

"Yes....mother".

"Tsk,such a mannequin. Mum, I've got somewhere to be so I gotta go"Dora spoke and that's when I noticed the beautiful dress she was putting on.

I envy the beauty of my mum and sisters. Unlike me,I'm super ugly. Rating from my hair that lacks maintenance,to my nerdy glasses. Everything about me sucks.

Sometimes I even wonder what Steph saw in me to have liked,or rather,loved me. Either ways,I'm glad to have such a genuine person in my life.

Since the conversation with me was over,I decided to leave. The stares were beginning to annoy me and the food...I lost my appetite.

"Thanks for the food everyone. I'll be in the garden for some air"I bowed and walked away heading straight for the garden.

At least this place wasn't against me. It brought me the peace I needed. I smiled plucking a tulip before tucking it at the side of my hair. That was the moment my phone rang again.

"Hey Andy"I smiled widely.

"Hello bestie. How're you doing?"his cheerful voice came.

Did I mention Andy is my number one person in the whole wide world? We literally grew up together. He's been there,every phase of my life and I couldn't be more grateful!

He's my protector,my big brother and in fact everything. He's my home. The comfort that's always there when I need it. Oh and did I forget to mention? He's a gay.

"I'm so not fine Andrew. My head's a mess right now"I pouted strolling towards the swing before sitting.

"Lemme guess,scary witch Tang is at it again right?"I could literally hear him roll his eyes.

"Okay that's enough. She's still my mother yunno"I smiled.

"A mother who treats her flesh and blood like an outcast? Oh please. So tell me. What trick did she pull off her sleeves this time?"he asked.

"I'm getting married soon Andrew"I spoke sadly and I guess he was drinking something cause whatever it was,he spat it out.

"Wait,what?!"

"Hilarious right? I know "I muttered pushing myself back and forth.

"Hilarious? This is disastrous Rory! Lemme guess. You don't even know who your supposed husband to be is do you?"he asked and I shook my head biting on my lower lip in sadness.

"I don't"I spoke resisting the urge to let tears flow.

"Hey baby girl,you don't have to think about it too much okay? We'll find a way round this soon. Just like we've always managed to subdue her okay? I'm sure her plans are gonna fail woefully "he scoffed trying to make me feel better but it wasn't working cause my mind was elsewhere.

"You don't understand Andy. It's not just about me here. What'll happen when Steph finds out? He's gonna be so heartbroken. He'll see me as ungrateful"I spoke my mind,slow tears falling and I wiped them off.

"Exactly the reason why you should tell him yourself. I trust scary witch Tang to go warn him behind your back and then,it's gonna be worse so tell him yourself. He'll be sad and hurt but it'll be better than feeling betrayed and used"Andrew advised.

"I'll call him now and do that"I spoke.

"Don't! Just go to his house dummy. It's impossible for him to get mad when staring at your face"Andrew suggested.

"You think so?"I asked fiddling with the hem of my dress.

"I know so baby. Now go! I'll call you later to ask how it went"Andy blew me a kiss before hanging up. Ain't he just the best?

I took a deep breath with a huge smile on my face. This'll be the second time I'm being to Steph's house.

The last time I came over,I couldn't even stay for 5 minutes because my mum called immediately she noticed I wasn't home.

To think I managed to jump over the fence a while ago? It's crazy. I raised my hand to ring the doorbell but on second thoughts,no. I wanna see the look of surprise on his face.

Feeling contented with my decision,I turned the door knob and walked into the living room.

The huge smile on my face instantly melted at the scene in front of me. Stephen banging on my twin sister like there wasn't tomorrow and her moaning bitchily.

They hadn't noticed my presence cause I hadn't made a noise.

"S... Steph!"i called out in disbelief. The one thing I knew Steph for was his loyalty.

Or didn't I know him in the first place? Has he been making a fool out of me all these time?

I watched him pull out of her throwing on his briefs back on.

"Shit!"I heard him cuss lowly.

"Are you gonna explain what's going on here?"I demanded,my voice laced with hurt. Dora smacked her lips wearing a smug smile.

"There's nothing to explain sweetheart. What you saw is exactly what happened"she spoke sweeping her hair backwards. I so much hate the fact that this girl and I share a certain resemblance.

"You've heard her Aurora. I think it's best if you just leave"Stephen said spoke with no single trace of remorse or guilt.

You've got to be fucking kidding me right now. I refuse to believe I've been played.

"Seriously? Steph!! You're trying to say,all these times you've been telling me I love you, you've been fucking my sister behind my back? Where the hell did I go wrong huh?"I shouted hurtfully. I couldn't even feel angry because somehow,I felt I was also to be partly blamed.

"You went wrong every where Rora!! Everyone got to flaunt their girlfriends but I couldn't. Not like you were even beautiful in the first place but still I couldn't even hold you without being scared of your mum doing something. Then again,you didn't even give me the slightest thing Rora. Ranging from even a kiss to sex! Give me a reason why I shouldn't leave you?"he spoke as a matter of fact.

A tear fell,and like that,an ocean of them flowed.

"You...you said it didn't matter. You said you loved me nonetheless Steph"I spoke not wanting to believe I've lost him to the witch I call a sister.

"Love someone who's already married to someone else on paper? Tell me another joke"he scoffed running his hand on his hair and I turned to look at Dora who rolled eyes at me.

"I was going to tell you Steph. That's why I'm here Right now!"I yelled back.

"Does it matter? You're here to tell me everything will be okay and you'll find a way round this? You've been convincing yourself with those fake lines of yours for years Aurora. Nothing is ever changing!"he shouted sense into me.

"That.... that's not true. This is just a phase that's bound to pass Steph. Just tell me everything that's happened was a mistake and I swear, I'll forget this ever happened. I'll let go of the betrayal. I can't loose you Stephen"I cried.

If I hadn't been sure of what I felt for Stephen all these years,I was sure of it now. I loved him dearly and I didn't want to loose him. I wouldn't be able to take it.

"Well here's a news flash Aurora. You've lost him a long time again. Let's say you've literally been dating yourself. Now,if you don't mind,excuse us"Dora stood up not minding her nakedness.

As she pulled me out,I had my eyes on Steph who wasn't saying anything at all. I was almost pushed out when I spoke up.

"Look at me right now Steph and tell me that you never really loved me. That all the I love you(s) and late midnight texts were all fake"I spoke trying to find a piece of string I could hold onto.

"They were all fake Aurora. You've heard it. Now,leave"he spoke and that was what Dora needed to hear cause she pushed me out slamming the door shut.

My legs wobbled,I fell to the ground crying heavily. As if on cue,the rain began falling on me. If only it could help in washing away my pains.

Finding out I'm engaged to an unknown guy and finding out I've been played all these time by my boyfriend on same night? What could be worse than this?

I screamed loudly trying to ease the tightness I was feeling in my chest.

Imagining myself getting married to a total stranger, letting someone who I didn't feel a thing for,take my innocence suddenly made me feel worse.

I'd rather let someone who isn't in anyway related to my problems take it than someone who my mum chose for me.

That's it. I bet the reason they chose me to get married is because I'm the most innocent and pure one. Let's see what'll happen when I tell them I ain't a virgin no more.

This is the only way out right now I guess. Staggering,I made my way out unto the street as I hailed down a cab.

"Starlight club please"I spoke immediately I entered. I can't be the only one on the loosing end.

I convinced myself that I was doing the right thing throughout the drive to the club ignoring my endless tears,an evidence of my aching heart.
