Chapter 251 I Love You
Tilda stuffed a tangerine slice into Judeโs mouth.
The carefully prepared frozen tangerine, with added ingredients, mixed with the high-tech food Jude brought, which was made for Omega-types. Somehow, it created a wonderful taste.
โThis is so goodโฆโ Jude was impressed.
โSee? If itโs good, have some more. I already had dinner, and thereโs plenty hereโitโd be a shame to waste it.โ Tilda smiled happily, as if she had been given a big compliment. She then went back to enjoying her meal.
Jude tried that same combination again. It tasted good, but not as amazing as before. The reasonโฆ He knew perfectly why. It was because Tilda didnโt feed him any tangerine slices this time. It was that small gesture that made it taste better than any delicacy Jude had ever had.
Jude couldnโt take his eyes off Tilda. Tilda became too embarrassed to continue eating with gusto.
โAhemโฆ Jude, I know I donโt eat very gracefully, you donโt have to stare at me like that.โ
โSorry, Tilda. You are so beautiful that I couldnโt help but stare.โ
Tilda was speechless. Judeโs serious and sincere words made her not know what to do. At the same timeโฆ Why did her heart suddenly start pounding so fast? The strange rush of emotion made her lower her head.
โDid what I just said make you feel uncomfortable?โ Jude had never been in a relationship and was a total idiot when it came to love. This was completely different from the dignified, powerful business leader he was. When Tilda suddenly went quiet, as if she was ignoring him, Jude got anxious.
So this is what it feels like to fall in love, to care so much about your place in someone elseโs heart. Time and again, unintentionally, he found himself wondering, what does Tilda truly think of me?
Theyโd known each other for a long time and been through so much, but the answer was still unclear to Jude.
โNo, itโs justโฆ Jude, sometimes I wonder if you really like me, or if itโs just the attraction between our blood types? When Iโm around you, I can feel my blood boiling. Itโs a kind of chemistry that only happens between two people with the Omega-types. The closer we get, the harder it is to control this wild feeling inside. At first, I was embarrassed and scared of losing controlโฆ though Iโve gotten used to it now.โ
Tilda cupped her cheek, looking at Jude seriously, speaking from the heart. The more she spoke, the more unsure she felt about what to say next. Why was she saying this? Was she trying to confirm something? She wanted to be sure that Judeโs care, attention, and love for her were genuine, not just a blood-type attraction that would force them to rely on each other to live a happy life. It had to be something deeperโฆ But what was that reason? As a virgin whoโd never been in a relationship in this life or the last, Tilda felt completely lost. When it came to love, she wasnโt any better than Jude. Both of them were clueless.
Tilda was the Queen of the dark web, and Jude was the King of Slosa. Together, they were powerful enough to shake the world. But here they were, in a living room, face to face, behaving like awkward teenagers with out-of-control hormones. Anyone who knew Tilda and Jude would be shocked to see this. Theyโd think the sun was going to rise in the west tomorrow.
โI admit, Tilda, if it wasnโt for the attraction between our Omega-types at first, I wouldnโt have approached you. But I can tell you for sure that in this world, the only person who can stand with you is me, and it has to be me. Iโve fallen for you, Tilda. Doesnโt matter if itโs because of our blood types or because of youโyou make me reckless, like Iโm not myself, and yearn for a home and real happiness. Only this. No matter how many times you ask, Iโll always tell you without hesitation. I love you, Tilda! And as your suitor, I wonโt give upโฆ Not until the day you fall for me!โ
As Jude spoke, his eyes burned with an intensity that felt like it could pierce the heavens. And that โholy spearโ struck Tildaโs heart with every word, piercing her most vulnerable spot. Tildaโs blood boiled uncontrollably once again. She could feel Judeโs emotions down to her very soul.
Jude pressed his lips together.
