Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 244: I Am Yours

Aurora lay quietly on the sofa, her neatly cut hair already spread out around her. Hearing her phone ringing incessantly, she had no choice but to gently push the person lying on her. "Let me take this call."

The person calling must have something urgent to say, for their persistence was notable. Aurora did not dare delay. Julian, initially annoyed by the interruption, softened upon seeing Aurora's anxious demeanor. He picked up the phone from the coffee table and handed it to her.

"Don't move," Aurora warned. Julian gave her a reassuring look, and she pressed the answer button.

"It's me," she said, lowering her voice deliberately to mask her emotions.

"Miss, I'm here to remind you that you have half an hour. Do you need me to come and pick you up so we can go together?" Eric's voice came through the phone.

The room was quiet, and Julian was close enough to hear every word clearly. Only then did Aurora remember her evening appointment with Jason, having almost forgotten about it due to Julian's distractions.

"I... ah..." As Aurora was about to respond, Julian decided to tease her.

Caught off guard, she couldn't help but let out a soft moan.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Eric asked, hearing the unusual sound.

Aurora glared at Julian, her breathing still erratic. She cleared her throat quickly, "Nothing, just got bitten by a bug."

Hearing her describe it as a bug bite, Julian became even more daring, amused that she had called him a bug.

"Oh?" Eric sounded skeptical. The soft moan he had just heard did not seem to him like someone reacting to a bug bite, especially knowing Aurora had never been afraid of bugs. He adjusted his glasses, his gaze deepening behind the lenses.

"You don't need to come get me. I'll head over soon and be there on time," Aurora said, her voice and breathing noticeably heavier than usual as she struggled to maintain her composure.

"Alright, I'll head over then," Eric replied.
