Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 89 This Tastes Better

The nighttime sea breeze was slightly chilly, but his embrace was so warm that she somewhat reluctantly didn't want to break free. It seemed that being alone for a long time made one deeply crave warmth. She carefully wrapped around his muscular waist. It felt as though as long as he was there, he could shield her from all the harsh cold. His kisses were so gentle. It almost felt like they melted her.

After a kiss, the atmosphere between them grew intimate. "Be a good girl and stay at home. I'm leaving now," he said. Julian didn't want to let go of her either. Every kiss with her was actually more of a torment to himself, and he could only leave now while he still had a bit of self-control.

"Goodbye."

"I'll watch you enter the house." He didn't turn to leave, watching as Aurora entered the passcode and went inside. Only when the lights inside turned on did he finally turn and leave. The one who turned their back first in such moments was always the one with the harder heart.

If Aurora looked back, she would see Julian still tenderly watching her. For those deeply in love, this too was a form of torment, the sorrow of parting.

Aurora turned on the light, her fingers slowly tracing her lips that he had kissed, her fingertips outlining them as though mimicking the tender strokes of his tongue. Realizing this, she quickly dropped her hand. Damn it. What was she daydreaming about?

There was one thing she had to admit though. Julian seemed to have become more important than she had thought. After taking a bath, Aurora lay in bed, thoughts of him creeping back into her mind. Had he reached home by now? Since when had she started to care about him?

A strong urge surged within her to call him, but they had no such relationship. Why should she care? It would only lead him to misunderstand. He was a grown man. Nothing would happen to him. "I should just sleep," she thought. Yet, deep down, she really wanted to hear his voice.

As she hesitated, her phone vibrated, startling her. Filled with anticipation, she looked at the screen. It was Hayden calling. Aurora hung up with a cold expression. The phone rang again shortly after. She wanted to answer and yell but realized it was Julian calling with a video call.

She pressed the accept button. "Aurora, have you gone to bed?" Julian had just gotten home and was taking off his suit.
