Already? Selene dreamed of this moment night and day, but nothing could prepare her for the shock of it actually coming true.

Her voice left her, and for a moment, she couldn't reply. The obvious answer to the question was, of course, yes. However, Selene couldn't help but give this a bit of thought. She had to make sure it was meant to be before she actually committed.

Married... what does that mean when we finally face my father? Zorlo will become the new king of heaven... but is that really what he wants? It's true... isn't it? What about his job at the Dome? And what about his traveling? She couldn't bear to leave him once they were wed... of course, Zorlo was better than Xiaver any day, and she did love the fencer with all her heart. What was more important than love? She tilted her head downwards to view the sparkling ring on her finger and looked back up at Zorlo.

Her deep blue eyes shimmered slightly as her lips formed a blissful smile. "Zorlo..." In a fit of excitement, her lips parted to reveal her white teeth. "Of course I will!" In flashes of light, her wings appeared, and she tackled his form on the floor, hugging him tightly. She kissed his cheeks, his forehead, and finally, his lips, more deeply than she ever had before.

She squeezed him once, resting her head against his chest. "I love you... I love you." She repeated over and over again. "Never leave me again... my lover... and my husband."
