Chapter 37
I refused to demand answers from a family that I had no right to inquire after. I quickly left Velkan's room, walking silently down the hall. I could hear Velkan quietly leave the room, following me. His quiet voice called out to me, but I refused to turn until he had caught me about the shoulders, turning me to face him and pushing me against the wall.
"I'm sorry…" he muttered quietly to me, his hands leaving my shoulders and clasping my hands. I smiled weakly at him as he kissed my cheek affectionately.
"There is no need for an apology…" I said quietly to him. I felt his weight fully against me now. I soon found myself fully relishing every moment.
"You will know all soon." He said quietly to me. "Tonight…" I felt my eyebrows raise in confusion.
"What are you talking about?" I asked him. I noticed a mischievous smile slowly come upon his face. He was thinking of doing something impulsive…I knew it!
"I have already spoken to a priest. He will marry us tonight." I heard him say. His hand squeezed mine in excitement as my eyes widened in shock, realizing the full gravity of the situation.
"When did you find time to do this!" I said hurriedly, a mix of panic and excitement in my voice. I had raised my voice too loudly…his hand quickly went to my lips, silencing me.
"Last night, after I left you." He answered quietly. I felt him slowly pull away from me, taking my hand. He quickly began to lead me back to his room, the excitement notable in the very movement of his feet.
"Tonight." He said, shutting the door behind us. I took a deep breath of surprise, feeling my head dizzy with surprise and confusion.
"I will come for you tonight, after sunset. I have arranged for everything, all I need to hear is yes." He said quietly to me, smiling as he noticed my look of confusion.
My gaze had traveled to the floor of his room, in deep thought. Slowly, I raised it to meet his expectant smile. He knew I could never say no to him, no matter how wrong he could be….
"Yes…" I replied hesitantly. "I will be ready when you tell me to be."
He laughed happily then, reaching out to hold me in his arms. This was happening far to quickly….FAR to quickly for our own good. But, sadly, we did not now at that time. What hazardous events would result from that one fateful night….
A/N: Hey again! I'm sorry I haven't updated in so long, I've been so very busy with school and such that I haven't had a chance to come around to writing this chapter! I know it is the shortest you have read from me lately, but believe me, you will love what happens next. I guess you could consider the last 30 something chapters to be a prologue to what is going to unfold now, lol!
Just so you guys know, I will no longer be updating this story. I will be starting a second half, dealing with the events leading up to the first movie! Of course Christine and all of my OC's will be involved! But, I don't want to give much away now, as I want you to read and find out for yourself. As always, let me know what you think, and please review!
