Chapter 2 Count Down To The Ceremony

Elisa's POV

"I wounder what captain Chavez wants? Why would she call us back to the precinct? She already asked me to work on my second day off?" I thought as we received the call.

"Goliath we need to head back to the precinct" I said through the com device.

"We shall come with you my love." Goliath said.

An hour late we arrived at the precinct.

Goliath, Angela, and Broadway landed by me.

"Broadway and I will stay out here father." Angela said and Broadway nodded.

"You coming in Big Guy?" I asked.

"Are you sure it is wise to walk in the precinct with a gargoyle? No offense Goliath." Matt said.

"It will be fine Matt, besides Goliath and I are going to be eternal mates. So he should at least get to see where I work." I said with a smile.

"I am sure my Elisa is right." Goliath said with a smile. "Besides the bonding ceremony is this Saturday so I want to spend every minute I can with you my love leading up to the ceremony."

"I feel the same way Big Guy. So should we go in?" I said as I kissed Goliath and we walked in.

Ten minutes later we went into Captain Chavez's office and Goliath walked and Chavez tensed up.

"Captain Chavez this is Goliath, Goliath this is my boss Captain Chavez." I said with a smile.

Goliath's POV

"A pleasure to meet Captain Chavez." I said as I shook her hand.

"A pleasure to meet you too Goliath." Chavez said as she shook my hand.

"What did you want to talk to me about, Captain" Elisa asked.

"Jon Castaway broke out of prison with help from the Quarrymen." Chavez said.

"When did this happen? Who is working the case?" Elisa asked in a panicked tone.

"This morning at three a.m." Chavez replied. "I wanted to warn you because of you connection to the gargoyles. You can go and by the way take some time off."

"How about I take the next two weeks off." Elisa said in an exited tone.

"Sure. Do you have something planed?" Chavez asked.

"I have asked Elisa to be my bonded mate and she said yes. The bonding ceremony will be held Saturday at midnight." I said as I pulled Elisa close and kissed her.

"We would like you to attend Captain." Elisa said.

"I would be an honer. Tell me where." Chavez said.

"At the castle. Now if you will excuse us we have to finish planing the ceremony." I said as I picked up Elisa and carried her out side.

"Come we shall return to the castle."

Angela and Broadway followed me up the wall and we glided back to the castle.

"Get the others we have a ceremony to prepare for and I need to tell everyone something important. Gather everyone in the library." I said.

"I will see to it father. Come Broadway." Angela said. With that Angela lead Broadway inside to find the others.

"Big Guy it looks like you are stuck with me for two whole weeks." Elisa said with a smile.

"I love that idea, my Elisa." I said with a happy smile. "Now come my love, we have to warn the others about Castaway."

With that I kissed Elisa and when we separated and I lead her into the library and we walked with my talon intertwined with her fingers.

Five minutes later we entered the library and the others were already gathered.

"So Goliath what is this about?" Brooklyn asked.

"Jon Castaway broke out of jail and we need to be careful." I said. "That is all I have to say. No let us finish preparing for the ceremony."

With that we all separated. I went with Hudson to practice my vows. Elisa went with Angela to practice her vows. Brooklyn, Lexington, Broadway, Fox and Xanatos went to decorate the great hall. Xanatos whispered something in Fox's ear and she nodded, the five of them talked quietly as they walked.

"I'll see you before the sun rises Big Guy." Elisa said and then she pulled my face down to hers and we shared a long passionate kiss then they walked off.

"My Goliath you have a great mate there. Most gargoyles could only dream of a love as strong as the love you and your lass there share." Hudson said with a smile.

"I know. I love her with all of my heart." I said.

"Come on lad we have something to do." Hudson said.

Elisa's POV

"It is good to see my father happy." Angela said with a smile.

"I'm glad I make him so happy. I love him with all my heart. I can't wait to be his mate." I said.

"Elisa lets practice your vows. I can't wait to see you in the ceremonial dress." Angela said as she smiled.
