Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 273: I Love You So Much

Julian thought back to that night and couldn't help but chuckle; he had never felt so awkward in his life. Luckily, it was Aurora. Had it been any other woman who dared to play him like that, she would never dare to show her face in this city again.

At the moment, thoughts of punishing her had flashed through his mind. However, as soon as he saw her face, he couldn't bring himself to do it-after all, she was the woman he had waited eighteen years for!

To reunite with her was something to be thankful for. To think of troubling her again was out of the question, especially after he inadvertently learned of the hardships she had endured over the past three years.

Julian wanted nothing more than to dote on her tirelessly, to compensate for the suffering and sorrow she had experienced.

Aurora jumped out of his arms, "Yes, I've never even thought about hiring a gigolo in my life; I regret that quite a bit."

Seeing her hopping and skipping ahead, Julian's lips curved into an elegant smile, "It seems like last night wasn't quite enough for you; you still have so much energy. This time when I catch you, I will have to tie you to the bed."

Used to hardship, though her body still ached, Aurora didn't see it as a big problem and merrily ran towards the distance.

"Alright, if you catch me, I will..." she said, turning her head and sticking out her tongue at him.

Julian lengthened his stride to chase after her. Aurora hadn't run far before she was caught.

"You've got longer legs, and naturally, you run faster. It's not fair," she protested. Julian saw her pouting and scooped her up in one smooth motion, "Were you not tired after last night? If you're not, we can continue."

Aurora thought he would scold her, but he remained as gentle as ever. Had she known, she wouldn't have run so desperately.

"Of course I'm tired. I'm practically falling apart. You need to take responsibility."

"Alright, I'll take responsibility, responsibility for a lifetime," Julian said indulgently, smiling as he carried her to the car.
