He was taken aback by her sudden question, making his lashes flutter repeatedly.
He didn't expect the little maiden in front of him to be so ignorant and demanding.
"What did you say?" He questioned to confirm if he had heard her wrongly, his tone laced with disbelief.
"I want you to be my husband," she repeated, causing his eyes to widen even more, while she had a smile plastered on her face.
He turned away from her, quietly scoffing under his breath, still muddled by what she said.
"We only met once, but you want me to marry you? You must be out of your mind. I should have never helped you escape in the first place," he grumbled, making her smile fade away.
