Chapter 45: Do You Intend to Stay in My Arms Forever?

Julian chuckled lightly, "Lift your face a bit more; there seems to be a reporter ahead. If you lift your head, he can take a clearer picture."

Seeing Aurora's flushed cheeks rise and then quickly duck back down, she murmured, "Julian, put me down. I can walk by myself."

"That's fine; I can put you down so the reporter can get a clearer shot. I always look good on camera anyway," Julian said, about to lower her.

But Aurora clutched at his lapel, "Wait, wait a moment." If the reporters caught her being carried into the hotel by Julian...

Wouldn't tomorrow's headlines feature her blown-up face and his mischievous grin? Her plans had not even started yet, and she didn't want to expose herself so soon. "Do I put you down or not? My arms are getting tired," Julian found her amusing and teased her, even though there was no one in front of them.

"Put me down when there's no one around," Aurora buried her face further, afraid of being photographed.

"No one around? That would only be in bed then, little bunny. It seems you too are looking forward to spending a sweet night with me, so why keep running away?"

It was he who had initiated holding her, yet now he spoke as if she was clinging to him.

Aurora glared at him and quickly got down from his arms.

But in her haste, and with her heels being quite thin, she failed to stabilize herself and plunged back into Julian's arms.
