Beautiful Tyrant

A/N:

In this story the character names belong to Stephenie Meyer but the inspiration and chapter titles come from William Shakespeare's epic tale, Romeo & Juliet.

Chapter 126. The exchange of love's faithful vow for mine.

"Do you love me?" Edward asked, his eyes glued to hers as he waited for a response.

Even though he'd heard her swear that she would fight her family for him, he needed to hear her say the words. If he knew for sure, that would give him the strength to weather any hurdle they'd face, and he was certain there'd be many.

A dozen scenarios jammed his mind as the seconds ticked on: Her family forbidding her to be with him; her family finding him with her and killing him; his family retaliating.

Why was she taking so long?
