Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 56: She Will Soon Accept This Deal

Dawn broke.

Aurora awoke from her sleep, her eyes hazily opening.

"Good morning." Julian's voice came from beside her.

It was then she noticed that she was still clutching his shirt tightly. Perhaps too tightly, as her fingernails had scratched some red marks across his chest during the night.

"Sorry..." she said uneasily, looking at the red streaks she had caused on his chest.

She hadn't slept well, and Julian had stayed awake the whole night, guarding her, fearful of any danger. Aurora noticed dark circles under his eyes.

"Did you stay up all night?" Even though she had a rough night, at least she had slept. It surprised her that Julian had been watching over her the whole time.

"What if I had fallen asleep and you had jumped out the window and hurt yourself? Little Bunn, how have you managed these past three years?" Julian finally asked about

her past.

Aurora didn't want to discuss her troubled past. She turned her face away. "It's all in the past."

Seeing she didn't want to talk, Julian didn't press further. Asking her about her hardships might just reopen her old wounds.

"Alright, I won't ask further. If one day you feel like talking, I'm always here to listen,"

Julian said as he let go of her waist and prepared to get up.

"Aren't you going to sleep a bit longer? You were up all night."

"Don't worry about me. I can manage even three nights without sleep," Julian said with

a smirk, kissing her forehead. "Morning."
