Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

This place had a designated gift area. Aurora carried the cake she had prepared and intended to place it there. The staff responsible for recording gifts glanced at her.

"Miss, is this a handmade cake? A thoughtful gift like this would be better delivered to our young master in person. Otherwise, if it's left here and he doesn't see it in time, wouldn't it be a pity if it spoiled?"

"You have a point. May I ask where your young master is? I'll head over right away."

The staff member told Aurora the location. She had initially thought they might disdain her simple gift, but instead, the attitude was surprisingly kind.

What Aurora didn't know was that, regardless of what she brought today, she would have been given the same response.

Leaving the crowded area, she followed a small path that led to a garden. By now, the sky had darkened, and soft, beautiful lights illuminated the garden.

The lights were cleverly hidden, some shaped like flowers themselves, blending seamlessly into the enchanting surroundings.

Aurora felt as though she had stepped into a paradise-so serene, so breathtaking.

In the center of the garden stood a pavilion, and inside was a solitary figure. That must be the young master they were speaking of. Aurora suddenly felt a little nervous.

She didn't even know this young master. What if he preferred luxury brands and sports cars?

After all, she knew nothing about his preferences and couldn't be sure he'd appreciate her cake.

As she slowly approached him, her heart raced wildly.

In the warm glow of the lights, the man held a book in his hands. He wore a simple white shirt, exuding elegance and simplicity.

From the side, he appeared calm and composed, utterly absorbed in his reading, as if lost in his own world.

It was strange, Aurora thought, that on his birthday, he would hide away in a garden to read.
