A novel of passion's flame chapter 43 Final
NORA'S POV
We stepped onto the red carpet, the paparazzi erupted into a frenzy of flashing cameras and shouted questions. Alexander wrapped his arms around me possessively, pulling me close as walked through the red carpet.
I felt shy and nervous. I wasn't used to being the center of attention, and the constant clicking of cameras made me kinda uncomfortable.
Alexander seemed to sense my unease, and he tightened his grip on me, holding me steady. He smiled confidently for the cameras, his filled with a fierce possessiveness as he gazed at me.
"Daddy, Daddy,Wait for me!"
We turned to see Lily running towards us, her curly brunette hair bouncing with each step. She was dressed in the exact version of my gown, and she looked like a tiny princess.
Alexander scooped her up in his arms, planting a kiss on her forehead. "Hey, baby girl," he said, smiling at her. "You look beautiful tonight."
Lilu giggled and wrapped her arms around Alexander's neck. "I want to walk on the red carpet with Mommy and Daddy," she said, looking up at us with big brown eyes.
As I heard the tender word "Mommy", my heart skipped a beat. A warmth spread through my chest.
It had only been a few days since Lily started calling me Mommy, and I had to admit, it was still a little surreal. At first, I was taken aback, unsure of how to process this new title. But I slowly got used to it and it made me extremely happy whenever she called me mommy.
Being called Mommy was a reminder that I had found a new sense of purpose and belonging, and it filled my heart with happiness.
Alexander glanced at me, and I nodded. Together, the three of us walked down the red carpet, Lily chattering excitedly about the cameras and the lights.
As we made our way through the crowds, Alexander's hand never left mine. He introduced us to the other guests, his voice proud. He wasn't ashamed as he presented me to his family.
I felt like a princess, surrounded by the glamour and luxury of the gala. But more than that, I felt like I was home with Lily by our side.
I was so happy... Extremely happy. My heart was full. I'm glad I found them.

Alexander and I made our way to the bar. We ordered our drinks and stood together, staring at the crowd and then i saw a beautiful woman with long, curly hair and a bright smile. She was making her way towards us, her eyes fixed on Alexander.
Why the hell was she staring at him like that? I frowned as she finally reached us.
"Alexander, darling,"She said softly. "You look really handsome"
Alexander smiled politely as he looked at my annoyed face but he didn't dismiss her.
I rolled my eyes and then turned away from them, sipping my wine. Alexander seemed uninterested in speaking to her but she kept bringing up conversations and touching him from time to time,acting like it was unintentional.
She flirted shamelessly with Alexander, I felt a burning sensation in my chest. Jealousy coursing through my veins, making my skin prickle with irritation. Who did this woman think she was, flirting with my man?
I narrowed my eyes, my gaze locked on her smiling face. I could feel my annoyance rising, my instincts screaming at me to mark my territory.
Without thinking, I reached out and wrapped my arm around Alexander's waist, pulling him close. My eyes never left her face, my message clear: he's mine.
𝙔𝙚𝙖𝙝 𝘽𝙞𝙩𝙘𝙝,𝙃𝙚'𝙨 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚. 𝙈𝙮 𝙢𝙖𝙣. 𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮. 𝙈𝙄𝙉𝙀.
Her smile faltered, her eyes flashing with annoyance. But I just smiled sweetly, my grip on Alexander's waist tightening.
"I'm Nora, Alexander's girlfriend," I said, my voice firm but polite. "And you are...?"
Alexander's didn't push me away but then he held me to him tightly, playing with the strands of my hair.
He seemed to enjoy seeing me Jealous and holding him Possessively.
Her eyes narrowed, her smile returning, but it seemed forced and honestly, I don't fucking care. I just want her to stay away from him.
"I'm Isabella," she said. "An old friend of Alexander's."
I raised an eyebrow, my eyes locked on Alexander's. "An old friend?" I repeated.
Alexander nodded, his lips on my neck "Yes, we went to college together."
I smiled, my arm tightening around Alexander's waist. "Well, it's nice to meet you, Isabella," I said. "But Alexander and I have to go now"I tried to smile nicely but I was glaring at her.
Isabella's smile faltered, and she nodded curtly. "Of course," she said. "It was nice meeting you, Nora."
As we walked away, Alexander leaned down to whisper in my ear. "You look so hot when you're Jealous" he said, his voice low and husky.
I looked at him, pretending to be mad at him."I don't like it when other women flirt with you," I said, pouting my lips.
"She was flirting with you shamelessly! And then she dared to touch you," I exclaimed, my voice rising in annoyance. "I swear, I wanted to chop her hands off for putting them on what's mine."
Alexander's eyes were filled with amusement and he chuckled softly. "I have to admit, I felt the same way when those men were staring at you," he said Possessively staring at me intensely.
"I wanted to pull out their eyes for daring to look at you with lust. You're mine, Nora - every inch of you, every thought in your head, every beat of your heart. You're mine"
I felt a shiver run down my spine as Alexander's words washed over me. His possessiveness was intoxicating, and I liked it.
"My god, Alexander," I whispered, my voice barely audible over the music. "You're so possessive."I smiled, wrapping my arms around his neck.
He pulled me closer to his chest.. "I'm just stating the truth, Nora," he said, his voice low and husky. "You're mine"
"I love it when you're possessive," I admitted, blushing lightly.
He leaned in to claim my lips in a fierce, possessive kiss.
As we kissed, the world around us melted away. The flashing cameras, the chatter of the crowd, everything faded into the background. All that mattered was the two of us, lost in this kiss.
Alexander's lips were fierce and possessive, claiming me as his own. I felt a shiver run down my spine as he deepened the kiss, his tongue tangling with mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer as I surrendered to the kiss.
The kiss was long and passionate, leaving us both breathless. As we finally broke apart for air, Alexander's eyes were filled with love and adoration.
"I love you, Nora," he whispered, stroking my cheeks.
"I love you too, Alexander," I replied, smiling widely.
Our love would burn bright, a flame that would never fade.
I know our love will last forever. I had found my happily ever after and nothing would ever tear us apart.
