247 Loriel Really Wants To Love Elise

Damn it. Loriel stared at Elise and at her confession of love to him. When he first saw her and realized that she loved him a lot… he remembered thinking that it was so ridiculous.

How could Elise love a man that she was betrothed with? Just because her parents said so?

He and Elise had never met before she came to Castilse to see him for their wedding preparation. However, when he saw her for the first time, Loriel could already tell that she was in love with him.

It was something that would always baffle him. How could someone do that? Loriel needed months to realize his love for Emmelyn, and that was after they spent so much time together. While Elise... she didn't even know if Loriel was good or bad.

So, the only explanation was.. Elise grew up with the knowledge that she was betrothed to Loriel and she built her own fantasy about him that made her think she loved the man when she didn't even know him.
