Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 271: I Want to See You Wear These

Aurora let him take care of her body and tenderly dried her hair. The familiar feeling of being pampered returned, making her feel utterly at peace. After parting ways with Hayden, she had thought she could live well alone-what need was there for a man? Now, she couldn't utter such bold words anymore; accustomed to Julian's kindness, it was as if she was poisoned by him. A day apart had already torn her heart to shreds; how could she part with him even slightly?

She obediently leaned her head against his chest. "Julian, these past two days made me realize something."

"What is it?" Julian asked, indulging her, their sweetness nearly overflowing the room.

"I can't be without you. When Hayden betrayed me, I left home alone, and I never felt then as I do now," Aurora confessed honestly.

"How could I bear to leave you, Little Bunny? You know this heart has been beating for you for over twenty years. Without you, how could I live?"

Perhaps in the past, cheesy lines like these from others would have made Aurora scoff, but now, coming from this man, she found them endearing.

She stretched out her hand, just like when she was a child, "Then, let's agree, we'll never leave each other for a lifetime."

Julian lightly scraped her nose, Aurora becoming more like her childhood self, which was a good thing. No matter how strong she was outside, in front of him, she didn't need to pretend; she could shed all pretenses and just be his Little Bunny.

He extended his hand and hooked it with her pinky, "I promise, Little Bunny, I'll pamper you for a lifetime, making it impossible for you to leave me."
