"I love you," the Duke repeated. "I love you so much to the point I cannot stop yearning for you."
Julian's body shrivelled to the pressure, and he wished he could throw himself in a well or something, and his face wouldn't stop flushing, and his cheeks began to hurt.
"Do you like the confession that much?" The Duke asked, over a short laugh, and Julian shook his head.
He couldn't admit it. There was no way he would.
But there were still some uncertainties that plagued him.
"Are you sure about this?" Julian asked, looking a little unsure. "I am a man just like you and I… I am Lucius's tutor. It is usually unheard of for. man of your status, a Grand Duke to y-yearn for his son's tutor."
It was as if Julian wanted to get all the facts down. All the variables that could lead to a reasonable breakup later.
What if there is a reset in the system and the Duke doesn't actually feel all these things for real?
