Thorns' POV

I woke up in Violets' arms after having the best night's sleep in my life. There were little rays of sunlight seeping through my bedroom windows and the room was cool. I felt like I'd taken some sort of sleeping pill last night because I was so settled I didn't wake up at all- which was amazing considering I had a beautiful and very nearly naked woman in my bed. But hey. Today felt like a good day. I padded along to my bathroom to have my morning shower and was promptly followed by Voilet. Turning round, I raised my eyebrows as if to ask what she wanted.

"Mind if I join you honey?" she smiled sweetly at me.

I blushed a little before replying with an "of course" and we headed for the bathroom, Violet in front of me. Once we were in there with the door closed I tapped her gorgeous little arse playfully and we took our clothes off and got in the shower. After seeing eachother naked and wet, things soon turned hot as we made out passionately against my shower wall, the water bouncing off of our moving bodies, Violet pushing her crotch against mine teasingly.

After our shower/ make out session, we got ready for the day and it seemed as if Violet had something on her mind. After we were all dressed and sorted, I slipped my arms round her from behind, pulling her into an embrace.

"What's up beautiful?" I whispered softly.

"...I went to a coven meeting last night. They know I've found my mate. My Father has ordered to bring you to your first meeting tonight."

My heart was going like crazy. My mind was racing with pessimistic thoughts. Shit, they won't like me. What is this for? Are they gonna judge me?

As if to read my mind, (Yes, she was good at that) the beautiful woman stroked me to calm me down and reassured me.

"Baby they're so excited to meet you. All the guys are really proud that I've found my mate and they're gonna love you, I promise." She smiled up at me. How could I not believe that face? I leaned down a little and kissed her, grinning like a maniac by the time we had finished.

"Well in that case, I can't wait" I giggled, and skipped around to find something to eat and to make myself look a little more presentable.

We spent the day cuddling and discussing what would be going on at the meeting. I was forced to have a nap seeing as we would be up practically all night. I was warned about how they would need to feed before the meeting and that they would take it in turns to have their feed so I'd always have someone with me to protect me. Before I knew it, midnight had come and Violet was waking me up. "C'mon sweetheart, it's time." She gave me a small smile and picked me up bridal style, carrying me out of the house and locking the door.

"Hold on" she warned, and as I tightened my grip around her neck she was sprinting so fast everything was a blur. Within seconds we were in Bleakshadow woods, and I was face to face with a coven of what must've been 20 vampires. Violet put me down gently, and held my hand reassuringly to calm my nerves. All eyes were on me and I felt like I was about to pass out at any given moment.

"You must be Thorn." The most well- built man spoke up, an air of authority to his voice. His pale face looked perfectly sculpted into a strong frown and his chest was stuck out slightly, in a territorial manner.

"Y-yes" I just about squeaked.

"Welcome to the coven, little one." He grinned, and patted me on the shoulder warmly, all the hostile stares suddenly becoming friendly and welcoming. I could feel my anxiety ebbing away as each coven member went to feed and I had a conversation with each one that was looking after me at the time. They were all like brothers to Violet, and seriously protective. I seemed to have a bond with a guy called Shade the most though.. he also seemed like he was the closest to Violet and I loved it. Before long their thirsts were replenished and we were sitting around blue flames casted by the mage vampires.

"So, I hear you've had a vision little one." Violet's father spoke up, gazing across at me in her arms.
"Yeah.. we did" I blushed. Why did they know about this?
"Got a date yet?" he directed at Violet teasingly, earning evil looks from the little lady I was sitting on.

"Shut it before I come and throw you off the leadership and make myself 1st in command!" She shot back, playfully.

Then there was silence, for at least 3 minutes. They looked as if they were deep in conversation, but they weren't saying anything out loud.. oh shit, they're mind linking eachother. I realised. I hated not knowing what they were discussing, because I figured it involved me.

"That sounds like a plan then, young Violet." He broke the silence with.

"Stop giving it away you twat" She growled, smiling a little. Okay, we were gonna have a good talk when we got home.

"You have a busy night, youngling. I'll leave you to it. Coven dismissed." He smirked, and Violet rushed me home within minutes.

"You gonna explain what that whole secret conversation was about or am I going to have to tickle it out of you?" I questioned, getting a tub of Ben & Jerry's out of the freezer. That was good shit.

"Sit down baby." She ordered. Okay, this was a bit weird?

"I know I only met you a few days ago but it's like I've known you since the day I was born. And we already know we were meant to be together because we're mates," she took my hand in hers gently. "You feel those tingles when I touch you? You feel your heart beating faster? That's because we're meant for eachother, our hearts are beating as one. Is there any feeling more right than this? Thorn, I would die for you. I would disgrace our coven and put myself up for being killed if it meant saving your life. I have never in my life felt anything like what I feel for you, and I never will feel anything like this with anyone else. You are my one. You are like a drug to me, I'm completely addicted to you and I can't get enough. Now I've found you I can't let you go. I don't want to spend more than 20 minutes apart from you at a time. You can't understand how much you drive my vampire crazy. I need you. I don't just want you, I need you. More than I could ever need anything, including blood. Whenever I look at you it's like my whole world just stops for you because you are the single most perfect thing I've ever had the honour to come across. I am the luckiest woman.. vampire.. to ever exist. I've been blessed with the most adorable, sweet, kind hearted, loyal, loving, affectionate, caring, beautiful, funny, amazing mate anyone could ever ask for. You are all I need. But there is one thing I need to ask," she gulped, gently pulling her hand away and reaching in to her pocket, and getting down on one knee, producing the most beautiful emerald and white gold ring, making my eyes sting with tears and my breath get caught in my throat.

"Marry me, Thorn. I'll try my hardest to be the best damn wife you could ask for, and there will be times we fight or I mess things up but that's nothing. We could get over anything. Our love is too strong to fall at something like a fight or if one of us messes something up. The fact is, I need you in my life for eternity, and to be able to call you my wife would be utter perfection. Please do me the honour of being my wife?" she rambled, and I let the tears go, pouncing on her, kissing her millions of times and saying "YES!" over and over.

Me and my.. fiancé ended up making beautiful, passionate love and falling asleep overjoyed in each other's arms, even though any dream I could have would never match the reality I had now.
