Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 868: My Little Wife

Agree or refuse-it was her choice to make.

Aveline had no idea what Orion was scheming, but she could tell he was angry.

Never before had he spoken to her in such a tone. His icy demeanor was almost enough to freeze her solid.

Liora, sensing the tension between the two, made a pleading gesture toward Aveline. This was a major moment in her life, and she wasn't about to let it slip away. Even if Orion was only joking, Liora still wanted to seize the opportunity-what if it turned out to be real?

Deep down, Aveline resisted the entire situation. Why did Orion have to force her to make this decision?

"I..."

Just as Aveline hesitated, unable to answer, an angry voice interrupted them.

"What are you doing?!"

"The dean is here! Run!"

The crowd that had gathered to watch the scene scattered in an instant.

Dating was strictly prohibited at their school, and anyone caught by a teacher would face serious consequences. Aveline had heard the rumors before-getting caught by the dean could lead to punishments and black marks on a student's record.

She immediately thought of Orion, who had only just transferred schools. This was their final year, and a mark on his record would follow him for life. Without a second thought, she grabbed his hand and ran.

The moment Aveline's soft hand wrapped around his, Orion's anger melted away into nothingness.

Given their identities, they had no reason to run. Even if they caused an uproar at the school, it wouldn't matter. Forget his own powerful family-Aveline's overprotective father could buy the entire school in an instant if he wanted to.

Despite her privileged background, Aveline had always been humble. She had chosen this school on her own and even swapped out her designer clothes for simple outfits that cost only a few hundred dollars apiece. She never revealed her family background and avoided special treatment so no one suspected anything about her.
