Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Julian understood her temperament. The fact that she agreed to spend less time at the company was already a significant change.

"By the way, Julian, there's something I want to discuss with you."

"Go ahead." Julian gently stroked her hair, speaking softly. It was rare for the two of them to enjoy moments like this together, and for him, these moments were the most romantic.

"Justin took over the pirate ship under those circumstances. Over the years, he hasn't done anything cruel or immoral. Instead, he's been working hard for the village's development.

You have a lot of resources in your hands, don't you? I'd like you to help him. Would that be okay?" Aurora held his hand as she spoke.

"Not hating him is already my limit, and now you're asking me to help him?" Julian frowned. All he wanted was to leave this place early tomorrow morning, sever all ties, and never look back. He wished for no connection with that man, treating the past as nothing more than a dream he shared with Aurora.

"Julian, you don't even know how well Justin has treated me these days. He's not only been good to me but has also taken great care of our baby.

If it weren't for him, how could I be this healthy now? I don't think he's suited to be a pirate. He could easily take up another profession." Aurora had always been a good judge of character.

"So, you want me to help him make connections?"

"Julian, do you know what I was thinking about when I fell into the sea?" Aurora suddenly asked.

"Hmm?"

"I was thinking about you. My mind was full of you. I wished I could spend more time with you, and if I ever had the chance, I'd want to do more for you. Even if one day I were to die, you could still..." She didn't get to finish before Julian silenced her with his hand over her lips.

"Don't say such unlucky things. You have to live, live well. Besides, you're carrying the fruit of our love in your belly."

Thinking back to that morning, Julian felt a wave of fear wash over him. He had been terrified of pulling Aurora's lifeless body from the water. Not finding her had been a relief-a way to deceive himself into believing she was still alive.
