Masked Girl And Her Prince - Chapter 201 Chapter 201

He looked down at their hands and noticed how tight her grip was.

He choked, “Are you turning back on your words?”

Hearing the pain in his voice, Hazel quickly snapped out of her stupor and yelled, “No… obviously no”

Usui looked confused. Hazel couldn’t believe this guy, she asked ridiculously, “Why the heck would I do that?”

He furrowed his brows and asked, “Then, what do you mean by the words you uttered now?”

Hazel groaned as she rubbed her forehead.

‘This is such a pain.’ she thought wryly

Usui observed her reaction and frowned.

‘What is troubling her?’

‘What made her change her mind?’

Instantly, his eyes widened as he asked in a stutter, “D-did someone come here threatening to be my lover?”

Hazel gaped at the guy in front of her. Just what thoughts crossed his mind?

But she couldn’t help but hold her smile when she saw him panicking. He instantly held her hands in a tight grip and swore, “Love, I swear by my life that apart from you, I haven’t laid my eyes nor hold any desires on any other woman.”

Hazel widened her eyes as she instantly slapped his head hard.

“Ouch!” Usui yelped in pain as he released her and rubbed his head.

Hazel glared at this shameless guy.

‘Desires? How brazen of him to tell that to her face!’

Usui whimpered under her stern gaze.

“There is nothing wrong in holding desires towards you, Precious”

Hazel closed her eyes as her chest heaved. She wanted to hit his head so badly but stopped herself at the last minute.

Usui suddenly straightened and said seriously, “But I really don’t have anyone else besides you.”

He looked straight into her eyes and smiled, “You are the only one who can own my body and heart, love”

Hazel felt defeated by him.

‘Why does this guy always make her heart skip?’

She felt conflicted by his words. Should she say yes? Should she give up her plans?

Should she renege on the promise she made to her brother?

Hazel bit her lips, conflicted by her thoughts. She wanted him. She wanted to get married to him, to have him to herself.

But, this wasn’t the time.

She wasn’t strong enough.

‘Would he wait?’ a small voice whispered inside her mind making her hesitate.

“Hazel?”

She looked up into his worried eyes and instantly her mind cleared.

“I swear”

She didn’t know whether she should laugh or cry at his words.

‘How can he be so cute?’

If Usui knew that Hazel called him cute, he would have been horrified. He would instantly prove that he was handsome and not cute.

Usui looked surprised as he asked, “Then what is it?”

What else stopped her from saying yes?

Hazel shook her head and said, “Stop racking your brains and listen to me before you jump to some absurd conclusion”

Usui frowned but nodded her head as he waited for her to continue.

Taking a deep breath, she said, ” I don’t want to get married now. I never said I will not marry you.”

Ridiculousness flashed across her eyes as she asked, “Why wouldn’t I marry you?”

“I am not blind”

Usui gaped at her before a grin spread across his face. He instantly held her shoulders and asked excitedly, “So you still love me?”

Hazel nodded even though she felt he was being absurd.

“So you will marry me?”

Hazel furrowed her brows as she wondered whether any of her words registered in his mind.

He shook her and said, “I don’t care when but I have your promise that you will marry me, right?”

Hazel nodded yet again making him hug her tightly.

He smiled and said joyfully, “Okay then. I will wait”

Hazel widened her eyes as she asked, “Aren’t you going to ask why?”

Usui pulled back from the hug and shook his head.

“I know you must have your reasons. I don’t care what they are as long as you will marry me in the future.”

Hazel looked at this wonderful human in front of him. Were all her sins being forgiven that God decided to grace her with this guy?

She smiled, “I never planned on letting you go.”

Usui’s eyes widened in surprise at her bold confession. But the next line made him laugh loudly.

“You think you can leave after barging into my heart? You need to be responsible”

Usui laughed as he nodded, “Sure, I would love to take that responsibility”

He brushed her hair away from her face and said, “I need to inform our parents”

Hazel’s eyes enlarged slightly before she nodded. She had heard from Jinha how excited their parents were. Well, apart from her father.

She was amused when she heard how Julian was trying hard to delay the wedding and how her mother was ignoring him.

She felt bad for them but Usui caressed her cheeks and murmured, “Don’t worry, leave everything to me.”

She looked into his golden-brown eyes and nodded. He smiled, “I will take care of it.”

He proceeded to get up and said, “You need your rest, Precious. I will be back after talking with your parents.”

Hazel watched him leave her bed and adjust the pillow behind her. He kissed her forehead and said, “I will be back soon, love”

Hazel nodded with pursed lips. She didn’t want him to leave. She didn’t know why but her heart was in pain watching him leave.

When Usui reached the door, her stuttering voice reached his ears, “P-Please stay”

Usui’s hands stopped at the doorknob in surprise. He turned around to see a red-faced Hazel burying her head inside the blanket.

He looked at her for a minute, before his feet carried him towards her bed. Without another sound, he removed his slippers and cloak before slipping beside her.

Hazel’s heart thundered in her chest when she felt the side of her bed sink. Swallowing her saliva, she held the blanket tightly over her head, embarrassed to face him.

Chuckling, Usui asked, “You will suffocate, love”

Biting her lips, Hazel lowered her blanket slightly. Usui looked amused at the person whose eyes were only visible but he knew she was blushing.

He raised his eyebrow at her and asked, “Let’s sleep?”

Hazel nodded and turned her back to him making him chuckle. Holding the blanket close to her chest, she waited for her heart to calm down.

But his actions, only made it to explode as he slid inside her blanket. His leg touching hers while her back was plastered against his chest. She could feel his heat behind her making her flush.

Her heart skipped a beat when she felt his hand on her waist. She held her breath when she felt him pull her tightly to him. Now his breath fell on her shoulder making her heart go on a rampage.

His nose nuzzled her shoulder as he whispered hoarsely, “Love”

Hazel trembled slightly before she felt him turn her around to face him.

‘Oh, God!’ she screamed inside her mind.
