Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 478: Little Fox, Be Happy

Mona watched as Asher walked away. She opened her mouth, wanting to call out to him, but what would she even say if he stopped?

Asher was a clever man-there was no way he hadn't already figured out her feelings. Since he had deliberately refused her, it was clear he had no intention of being with her.

Some things were better left unsaid; otherwise, they might not even remain friends. Aurora noticed Asher drinking alone in silence. She leaned close to Julian's ear and whispered, "Julian, can I dance with Ashy for a moment?"

"You can, but just one dance," Julian replied, knowing how different Asher was to Aurora.

"Thank you, Julian." Aurora smiled softly, slipping out of his arms. She lifted her dress slightly and approached Asher.

"Handsome prince, may I have the honor of a dance?" she teased. Asher turned his head and met Aurora's playful gaze.

"Well, since you're asking so sincerely, I'll graciously accept," Asher joked back, placing his hand in hers.

The two walked slowly to the dance floor. "At least you still have some decency," Asher murmured near her ear.

"Ashy, I think Mona's pretty great. Why don't you give her a chance?" Aurora asked. It was clear she had noticed Asher turning Mona down earlier.

"Stop. Why are we back to this again? Didn't we agree you wouldn't meddle in my love life anymore?" Asher quickly responded.

"Fine, fine, I won't say anything. But I just want to ask-why not Mona?"

"Then let me ask you a question: why not me?" Asher looked at her seriously, leaving Aurora momentarily speechless.

"Because you're my brother. We're family," she quickly deflected.
