Chapter 79

When Zach opened his eyes, he saw Aurora in front of him, staring at him with her pearl-like eyes.

They both were sleeping next to each other on the same bed, and they indeed spent a night together.

Zach and Aurora stared into each other’s eyes for a while before averting their gazes.

"Do you remember what we did last night?" Aurora asked with a flushed face.

Zach moved his hand to Aurora’s face and flicked his finger on her forehead before saying, "Don’t say it like something happened last night."

"But we did sleep together!" Aurora retorted.

"We just slept on the same bed because you were harassing me," Zach remarked.

"What do you mean I was harassing you? I politely asked you and took your permission," Aurora stated in a loud voice.

Last night, when Zach was preparing his bed to sleep, Aurora dashed in and demanded to sleep with him.

Zach, of course, refused her and asked her the reason why she wanted to sleep in his room. To which, she replied with ’I am scared to sleep alone.’

Zach simply advised her to sleep in Aria’s room.

Of course, Aurora was lying, and Zach was aware of that.

After that, Aurora said, "I own this house, so I can do whatever I want."

So, Zach had no other choice but to let Aurora sleep in his room. Besides, it wasn’t something new for Zach.

Zach had already spent a couple of nights with Aurora on a single bed whilst they were staying at the inns.

For Aurora, that was a ’polite’ way to ask.

However, Zach was a bit worried, thinking something might happen between them, but all of his worries vanished when Aurora fell asleep within five minutes.

Zach also soon fell asleep and unconsciously hugged Aurora for the entire night. Thanks to that, he had a naughty dream that he couldn’t quite recall after waking up.

Aurora sat up and looked at the time to see it was past 8 AM. She shook Zach, who was already awake, and said, "Wake up."

Zach sat up and looked at Aurora’s seductive pose with an alluring gaze in his eyes.

"Don’t you feel afraid of me?" Zach asked.

"Why would I be scared of you?" Aurora asked with a confused look on her face.

"I am a boy, and you are a girl. What would you do if I did something to you?" Zach asked with a curious yet calm look on his face. He genuinely wanted to know how Aurora felt about that.

"Like?" However, Aurora wanted to play dumb for some reason.

Zach raised his brows and pushed Aurora down on the bed. Then, he pinned her down and intertwined his fingers with Aurora’s while looking into her eyes.

He moved his hand and stroked Aurora’s hair. Then, he caressed her face and moved his thumb to Aurora’s lips. He rubbed his thumb on Aurora’s lips and moved his hand down to her chest but didn’t touch it.

This entire time, Zach’s gaze was focused on Aurora’s face. If Aurora showed a slight dissatisfaction on her face, he would have stopped. But Aurora didn’t react and let Zach do whatever he wanted with her body.

He sighed and moved back from Aurora’s body after saying, "Get up."

Aurora sat up and looked at Zach with a gentle smile on her face.

"If you truly want to know what I would do if you ever sexually harassed me, then you will have to do it and find out," Aurora said with a grin on her face.

Zach moved his hands towards Aurora and placed them on her shoulders. Then, he pulled her closer as he also moved closer to her.

’Is he...’

Aurora closed her eyes and puckered her lips, thinking Zach was going to kiss her. But instead, Zach hugged her.

Aurora opened her eyes as her face twitched.

’It’s been a while since I last had this feeling, feeling of getting my hopes crushed,’ Aurora uttered inwardly.

"Thank you..." Zach uttered in a low voice.

"For what?" Aurora asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"For everything..."

"Wait, why does it sound like you are trying to raise some kind of flag here?"

"You were there yesterday, am I right?" Zach asked. "When Victoria broke up with me."

After a brief pause, Aurora uttered, "Yes."

"How much did you hear?" Zach asked in a solemn voice.

"From the part where she was disrespecting you and calling you mean things," Aurora answered.

"For your information, everything she said was true. I am that kind of boy," Zach asserted.

"I don’t care."

"What about you?" Zach asked. "The current number one guild, Edens Dynasty, your kingdom... are you not interested in that?"

"The guild may be of my kingdom or my people, but I belong here, with you," Aurora replied and asked, "You got a problem with that?"

Zach chuckled and said, "No, ma’am."

They both looked at each other and laughed out loud for no reason. Then, they stopped laughing at the same time and looked into each other’s eyes as their faces got closer.

Aurora closed her eyes and puckered her lips, and Zach did the same, except he didn’t close his eyes.

However, just when their lips were about to touch, there was a loud bang on the door followed by a voice: "Zach! Zach! Open up! Aurora is missing! She is not in her room!"

It was Aria.

Zach let out a weary sigh as he got up from the bed and opened the door.

"Zach! Aurora is missing!" Aria repeated herself with an anxious and concerned look on her face.

"Relax." Zach pointed his gaze at Aurora and said, "She is here."

Aria looked into Zach’s room and Saw Aurora on his bed. Her hair was messy, and her clothes were cluttered because Zach had pinned her down not long ago.

"Wow... I did not expect that..." Aria uttered with her jaw dropped in surprise.

"Nothing happened," Zach whispered to Aria.

"What?!" Aria whispered back violently. "You are a pussy!"

"Where did you learn that word?!" Zach whispered violently.
