tears. The added third thing was my neon, atomic blush that could have melted skin! ‘Why Keira…just why?’ My internal normal side said after smacking her forehead then mine.
    “Have you finished yet?” I snapped at him getting even more embarrassed but secretly loving that I could make him laugh this much. Actually if I were honest I utterly loved the fact that nobody else could make Draven laugh the way I could…not that I would tell him that, as it would make my pouting face a bit pointless and I was trying to be stern.
    “I’m sorry sweetheart but I don’t think the image of you trying to be a Vampire will ever leave my mind…in fact it’s been eternally scorched into my memory bank forever more. It’s one I will save for the darkest of times as it is sure to make me smile even then.”
    “Ha, ha, very funny. Can we move on now?” I said turning away from him and adding crossed arms to my sulk. Although this did nothing when Draven put his arms around me and whispered in my ear,
    “It was utterly adorable and I love how funny you are. And did I mention addictive?” He added this last part at the same time as running his fingertips across my bare breasts. I shuddered under his gentle touch and I could feel his winning smile spread across the sensitive skin on my neck.
    “If you continue down that path then we will never finish this conversation,” I reminded him, closing my eyes as his fingertips grazed my hardening nipples.
    “And you think that by informing me of such that I will be persuaded to stop? If that is your intention then you don’t know me as well as I would hope you would do by now, my Wife,” he hummed in my ear using that smooth velvet voice of his that I prayed to the Gods was only reserved for me.
    “I know what you are doing… Husband.”   He growled against me at the way I emphasised ‘Husband’ as it obviously had an effect on him the way I intended.
    “Soon we will be married not only in my world but in your mortal one also…how does that make you feel?” I knew when the question was asked that the reaction I gave him wasn’t one he would be expecting or more importantly one that he would want to hear. But after the decisions I had made only minutes before walking in here then I was left with little choice in telling him.
    Especially when I sucked at keeping secrets. Of course it didn’t help that my whole body went tense and Draven’s quickly followed suit.
    “What? What is it Keira?”
    “Uh…well its nothing really…” This was in no way enough to pacify him and I knew this for certain when I received a stern sounding,
    “Keira” 
    “Now it’s nothing to freak out about…I mean it’s a good thing and she said no pink, which I am taking as a good sign for us…cause no offence but you are not a pink kinda guy…” He knew I was waffling and stalling for time when he turned me round to face him and brushed my hair back from hiding my face.
    “Enough Keira. Tell me…are you… backing out?”   I couldn’t help my reaction. I was so shocked that he would think this that my hands flew to cover my mouth and in doing so hit him under the chin. He released an ‘Umpf’ sound and my hands soon forgot about my mouth and instead went to his chin.
    “Oh bollocks! Shit, I am so sorry, I didn’t mean to do that but it’s your fault, Christ but are you crazy?”
    “Keira let’s try and leave Christ out of this should we. Now answer me…do you still want to marry me?” he said taking my hands in his own to stop me from fussing over his chin.
    “Of course I bloody want to marry you! Are you mad! I think even the Pope would throw down his little white hat and say yes if you asked him!” His eyes smiled when I said all this but just to be sure in case he hadn’t fully got it with the daft Pope comment, I placed both my hands on his face and said,
    “Draven, listen to me. I love you. I have loved you from the first day we met and I will love you till the
