Villain MMORPG: Almighty Devil Emperor and His Seven Demonic Wives-Chapter 894 Exclusive
Villain Ch 894. Exclusive
'What should I do…?' she thought desperately, her mind racing for a solution. She wanted to fix things, to mend the growing rift between her and Allen, but she didn't know how. Her usual tactics of control and manipulation wouldn't work here; they would only make things worse. She needed a new approach, but the unfamiliar territory left her feeling lost and helpless.
Emma hugged her knees tighter, her body shaking with silent sobs. She thought about Allen, about how he had come into her life and turned everything upside down. She remembered the way he had smiled at her, the way he had patiently dealt with her tantrums and stubbornness.
Azura, who was sitting beside Emma, found herself lost in her own tumultuous thoughts. The emotions swirling within her were unlike anything she had experienced before. There was love, a deep affection for Allen that she struggled to suppress, tangled with a sense of duty and the need to act like a proper cousin. She wondered if she was being too nosy, too intrusive. Read new chapters at novelbuddy

'Am I too nosy?' she thought, her conscience pricking at her.
She had to admit, she had been acting differently than she usually did. Normally composed and thoughtful, Azura now felt like a restless teenager, her actions driven by an irrational urge to know everything about Allen's life. She felt like an annoying girl with a crush, trying to figure out every detail of what her crush was doing.
It was almost like she had become a crazy stalker, constantly trying to be involved in Allen's activities or to anticipate his needs.
It felt so wrong, yet there was a strong, almost irresistible pull driving her actions. She didn't have much time at the Goldborne mansion; her visits were always limited. That urgency pushed her to take chances, to try to weave herself into Allen's life in a way that made her presence necessary.
Azura bit her lip, her gaze drifting to the door as she tried to process these conflicting emotions. She wanted to be there for Allen, to support him and show him how much she cared. But the line between showing care and being intrusive had blurred, and she was no longer sure if she was helping or just making things worse.
But the problem was that Allen seemed like a hyper-independent type of guy. He could meet his own needs and knew exactly what he had to do. His array of skills extended far beyond gaming, encompassing a wide range of practical abilities that made him self-sufficient. This hyper-independence created a barrier, making it difficult for Azura to get close to him.
Azura realized that Allen was the kind of person who couldn't be approached easily unless he opened himself up or allowed someone into his life. He had many friends, yet he remained an exclusive person, keeping a certain distance that was hard to bridge. His exclusivity wasn't about arrogance; it was just his nature.
Allen was selective about who he let in, and one couldn't simply walk into his life if he didn't want them to.
This realization weighed heavily on Azura. She had been trying to find ways to make herself indispensable to Allen, hoping he would see her as someone he needed. But it was becoming clear that Allen didn't need anyone. He was capable, self-reliant, and seemingly content in his solitude. It left Azura feeling both helpless and frustrated.
She looked at Emma again, her cousin's tear-streaked face reflecting a similar struggle. Emma had tried to force her way into Allen's life through sheer will, using tactics that only pushed him further away. Azura didn't want to make the same mistake, but she didn't know what else to do.
The thought of Allen remaining distant, of never being able to break through his walls, filled Azura with a sense of despair. She cared deeply for him, more than she was willing to admit, even to herself. But how could she show that care without overstepping? How could she be there for him without intruding?
'I've never met someone like this before,' thought Azura as she exhaled a long, shaky breath. Allen's unique personality had thrown her completely off balance, leaving her unsure of how to approach him and making her lose her usual composure. She felt adrift, her usual confidence and poise shattered by the challenge of connecting with him.
'If I continue like this, I will turn into a real stalker,' she thought, a wry smile tugging at her lips despite the seriousness of her thoughts. She could all too easily picture herself following Allen everywhere, trying to uncover the details of his life in a desperate bid for closeness. The thought made her stomach twist with a mix of embarrassment and dread.
Azura sighed deeply, the sound heavy with frustration and resignation. 'That's why I hate falling in love. I go brainless every time I start to like someone. My intelligence drops to zero,' she thought bitterly. It was as if all her rational thinking evaporated the moment her feelings got involved, leaving her stumbling and foolish.
Her shoulders slumped in defeat, the weight of her unrequited feelings pressing down on her. She had always prided herself on her intelligence and independence, but when it came to matters of the heart, she felt hopelessly out of her depth. She thought back to the times she had tried to impress Allen, hoping to make herself indispensable to him.
Each attempt seemed to fall flat, his polite indifference a clear reminder of the distance between them.
Azura's mind wandered through her own worries and insecurities. A soft sound began to intrude on her thoughts. At first, it was barely noticeable, a quiet, muffled noise that she subconsciously ignored. But as it grew louder, more distinct, Azura's attention was pulled back to the present. She turned towards Emma, her eyes widening as she realized the source of the sound.
Emma had buried her head on her knees, her shoulders shaking with each sob that escaped her. The sight was jarring, almost surreal.
