Chapter 445 : Let's Become Lovers?

A purple magical light appeared in the bedroom, and Felyn returned to the place he was most familiar with.

This was the place where he served Dorothy.

The princess's bedroom was not lit at the moment, but the surrounding furniture could be vaguely seen under the illumination of the streetlights outside.

In the past, Felyn often sat with Dorothy by the bed where the moonlight could shine in and read books together.

But there was no moonlight today, and Dorothy probably wouldn't be sitting in his lap.

"Brother Felyn, I've thought it through now. I'm sorry, my thoughts were a little chaotic just now."

Dorothy tidied her long hair behind her and shook off the water droplets.

She squatted down and picked up two high-level heating sigils, sticking them on herself and Felyn.

Dorothy felt her body start to warm up.

She suddenly thought of the countless nights in the past, how warm it was in Brother Felyn's arms.

She could sleep without a care in the world, she could act spoiled in his arms, she could occupy all of him.

"It's okay, Brother Felyn, you can say whatever you're thinking. Dorothy is willing to listen."

Felyn glanced at the locked door and unconsciously pursed his lips.

What do you want me to say?

If I say it, can I still walk out?

It was pouring rain today. Even if he shouted desperately, no one would hear.

This time, he was truly imprisoned by the princess.

Dorothy had finally achieved her goal.

She sat obediently on a stool at this moment and lit a candle.

The warm candlelight did not make Felyn's body feel warm.

"Brother Felyn, do you hate Dorothy?"

"If it weren't for those strange things like handcuffs and imprisonment, Your Highness would still be a very cute girl," Felyn explained, slipping in a little of his own opinion.

Dorothy touched her cheek with her hand, silent and hesitant for a long time, before finally speaking, "Brother Felyn, I actually have many things I'm hiding from you, just as you have many things you're hiding from me."

"But I don't really want to tell you about them, because I'm afraid that after Brother Felyn knows these things, you won't like me anymore. So I plan to keep hiding them from you. Even so, do you still think I'm a cute girl?"

The things Dorothy was talking about were the matters of capturing and interrogating Nok's family one by one in order to protect Felyn and get revenge for Felyn.

She felt that Felyn might prefer the weak, obedient, and cute princess, not the princess who interrogated and tortured people in the basement.

Felyn nodded, also looking at the vast rain, "I still will. Because I know what Dorothy's heart is like."

Dorothy's heart was hard to classify as good or bad.

If judged by worldly morals, Dorothy was definitely not a good princess. She would choose to give up any benefit for the person she loved, and would even betray the kingdom for the person she loved.

Such a princess would definitely be criticized by others. Without a doubt, she was a bad princess.

But...

But when the person she loved was himself, when everything she did was for him, he had no way to judge whether Dorothy was right or wrong.

She was just someone who had lost hope in the royal family and even the entire world because she was bullied as a child.

Felyn knew that Dorothy didn't care about this world, and he wouldn't try to persuade Dorothy to change this idea.

"So, even if Brother Felyn doesn't know what I'm hiding, even if you know that I'm not the Dorothy you imagined, you still think I'm a cute girl." Dorothy wrapped her arms around Felyn's waist, just like in the past.

"So in turn, why does Brother Felyn think that I will hate you after seeing the real you?"

Felyn sighed, almost getting drawn in by Dorothy, "Because the contract is unfair."

The contract, the state presented by the service provider and the one being served were completely different.

As the service provider, Felyn had to show a perfect side.

And the ones being served, Dorothy and the others, only needed to show a normal side.

"Brother Felyn is trying to say that what I like is the perfect Brother Felyn, not Felyn, right?"

"Mhm. Dorothy, I'm not as perfect and gentle as you imagine."

Felyn finally told the truth.

He had once considered how to end the contract with Dorothy peacefully and had been working hard for it.

But Felyn found that ending the contract peacefully was impossible.

Some things were ultimately unavoidable.

"So, Dorothy, I've been thinking these past few days, you've given everything for a fake Felyn, and it's greatly affecting your future."

In Felyn's heart, Dorothy, like his past clients, was just relying on the perfect version of himself in the contract.

He didn't want Dorothy to continue making mistakes. He didn't want Dorothy to give up everything for a false dream.

Dorothy curled up, sitting beside Felyn, her head gently resting on Felyn's shoulder.

She turned her head to look at the chair by the window. That was the place she used to stay most often before she met Felyn.

Only by that small window could she see a corner of the world, see the flowers slowly growing in the garden, see the sunrise praised by the world.

"Brother Felyn, without you, I'm afraid I would have sat there for the rest of my life." She put one arm around Felyn's arm. Although she was talking about painful memories, because Felyn was by her side, her voice was still very sweet.

"Because of Brother Felyn, I have a reason to work hard. I will desperately stand up. After meeting Brother Felyn, whether it's for publicity or for condolences, I will work hard to do it, because... because I want to protect Brother Felyn, I want to become king, I want to..."

She moved closer to Felyn's ear and whispered word by word, "I want to become Brother Felyn's wife. Brother Felyn is so good, so I can't be a mediocre princess."

After saying these words, Dorothy closed her eyes tightly and rested her head on Felyn's body.

She longed to be in Felyn's arms right now, but...

But Felyn didn't move.

"Brother Felyn is really a fool, a stupid Brother Felyn."

"My future... has long been only you. I live for Brother Felyn, and my life will also be in Brother Felyn's hands."

Dorothy moved in front of Felyn, held Felyn's face with both hands, and her brilliant purple eyes appeared in Felyn's field of vision.

"Brother Felyn..."

Her voice was softer than the rain, with a slight tremble.

"Can we be together?"

The raindrops tapped on the window, as if accompanying her confession.

Dorothy's fingertips felt a warm touch. She felt the temperature of Felyn's cheek.

"I don't care about anything... my royal status, or what other people think..."

She took a deep breath and spoke out her past emotions: "I love you, Felyn. I want to be with you forever. I want to be with you forever and ever."

Felyn could hear the rain outside the window getting louder and louder.

But the sound of the rain could not cover the girl's heartbeat.

"Let's... become lovers?”
