Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Aurora noticed Mira gritting her teeth, and a faint smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. She was in an excellent mood-it seemed Julian hadn't given Mira any favorable treatment while he was in Paris.

"So, what exactly do you want me to do?" Aurora raised an eyebrow, her tone casual. The dynamic between the two had shifted silently but profoundly.

She recalled their first meeting at the airport. Mira was haughty and domineering then, her eyes filled with disdain for Aurora.

But now, even if Mira wasn't outright begging, it was close enough. Aurora held the upper hand.

"If he loves you as much as he seems to, he'll surely listen to you," Mira said, reluctantly admitting Aurora's influence over Julian.

Before meeting Julian, Mira already knew he had a woman in his life. With his status, it would've been odd if there weren't one. A man like Julian always had women around him-it was normal.

Through some cursory research, Mira had learned a little about Aurora. She assumed Aurora was born into a wealthy family, pampered from birth.

To Mira, Julian's relationship with Aurora must have been one of convenience-a match of social equals. Love? Mira doubted a spoiled, sheltered girl like Aurora could inspire any deep feelings in a man like Julian.

Besides, Mira had already deemed Aurora unworthy. In New York, she'd heard whispers of Aurora's entanglements with other men, and now this same woman was clinging to Julian.

From the start, Mira had formed a poor impression, which explained why she had displayed such open contempt for Aurora at the airport.

Even when Julian declared in front of her that Aurora wasn't just his lover but his most important family, Mira dismissed it as empty flattery. Men, after all, were masters of sweet lies.

She'd had plenty of lovers in her bed, all whispering pretty words. She never believed any of it.

In Paris, she had deliberately tested Julian, trying to seduce him with beauty and wealth. Both attempts failed. Slowly, she realized Julian was different from any man she'd met before.
