Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times

Want To Be Powerful (2)

Therefore, she needed power to take revenge, and as for the target of her revenge, it was Magnolia and her bunch who had captured her and Natalie, and Abel who was the one that actually killed Natalie… No, Abel was no longer alive. The one that was alive was now the demon Aosta, and she had no relations with him. She vaguely remembered that Magnolia’s group was nearly massacred by Aosta at that time. There might not be many of them left alive, and she would not need too much power to deal with the ones that were.

To go against the demon Aosta, she needed far more power than she had now. She needed Rothgarr’s help.

With a definite goal, Anna’s heart was settled.

One reason for gaining great power was for revenge. The other reason was that she hoped that in the future, she would have enough power to protect the people she cared about.

She couldn’t rely on anything. Only the power she held in her own hands could make her feel at ease.

Rothgarr held Anna tightly, so he could clearly feel her stiff body relaxing.

He saw her slowly closing her eyes with a look of relief.

He had only pulled the blanket casually over her just now, so not everything was covered. With only a slight glance to the side, he could see her round, fair shoulders and other, more attractive curves.

At this moment, his desire for her had not diminished in the slightest. If Anna took the initiative to pounce on him now, he would definitely not let her go.

But after seeing her small movements to cover her body, he retracted his previous thoughts.

He knew that Anna and Natalie had a very good relationship, and he also knew how emotional Anna would be after suddenly learning of Natalie’s death.

He was a Grand Duke of The Abyss, and naturally wouldn’t take advantage of her at this time. He would wait for her to submit to him willingly.

Rothgarr picked up a lock of long brown-red hair that was still damp, twirling it around his index finger in boredom. Then, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and closed his eyes to accompany her to sleep.

If she wanted greater power, he would help her. He would ask for the reward she promised later. When the time came, he could just add interest on top of it.

Anna’s dream that night was a bit chaotic. There were scenes of her and Natalie studying in Black Cloud City, and then it suddenly switched to the dark, underground sacrificial summoning. Natalie and her fought side by side, facing the demon who was too powerful to be defeated. Finally, she died in her arms. In that grotesque dream, she even saw Natalie transmigrate into her world and become the female CEO that had boy toys…

Anna was a little dazed when she opened her eyes, unable to tell what was real and what was fake.

She glanced sideways at Rothgarr, who had his eyes closed and was still hugging her tightly.

She was about to sit up when she felt a tight sensation on her scalp. She could only sit half way up with a hand supporting her body. Looking over, she saw that her long hair was entangled in Rothgarr’s hands and wrapped around his fingers. If she had gotten up with a little more strength, this entire lock of hair might have been pulled out.

Anna tugged back her hair and said, “Let go.”

She knew Rothgarr was awake, or rather, that he didn’t really need sleep.

Rothgarr opened his eyes, and he stretched out the hand that wrapped itself around Anna’s hair. He glanced it, then held the back of Anna’s head, using a bit of strength to pull her close, and kissed her lips. After a while, he felt unsatisfied again, so he turned over and pressed her under him.

He was just collecting some interest first.

After Rothgarr let go of Anna, her cheeks were slightly flushed due to the natural physiological reaction. She heard him say, “I was injured yesterday, heal my injury.”

Anna looked at Rothgarr, and choked out a sentence for a while: “I’ll get dressed first, please turn around.”

She came out of the bathroom yesterday wearing nothing. Her nightgown was still in there.

Rothgarr watched her for a moment, his expression changing slightly. After all, he had seen and touched it.

But seeing Anna’s sullen and uncompromising appearance, although he didn’t turn around, he closed his eyes.

Knowing that Rothgarr was already being very cooperative, Anna jumped out of bed and went into the bathroom. After putting on her nightgown, she went back to her room first, changed into riding clothes for easy movement, and returned to Rothgarr’s room. He was already neatly dressed and standing in front of the window.

Anna walked over and stood behind him, and asked, “Where did you get hurt?”

Rothgarr turned to show Anna the wound.

Anna didn’t say anything else. She skillfully used the holy healing spell. Rothgarr didn’t ask about her escape, and since he didn’t ask, she didn’t bring it up either.

After she helped Rothgarr heal all kinds of injuries on his body, he took Anna’s hand and led her downstairs to the door of the study.

After entering the study, Rothgarr walked around, chose more than a dozen books and returned to Anna: “Read these first.”

Anna quickly received all the books and replied, “Okay.”

When she picked up the first book to read, Rothgarr turned and walked away.

When Anna turned her head, she only saw Rothgarr’s figure disappearing at the door. After a while, she saw Rothgarr disappearing from outside the window.

Leaving her alone in the castle like this, he really believed she wouldn’t run away, didn’t he?

Of course, she wouldn’t run away.
