CHAPTER 44

This was more like it; she was finally going to have what she had been wanting for so long and she was going to take as much as she could before she separates with Haven.

“Why are you smiling?” Haven asked Amber.
“I love you,” she replied and she flicked her forehead.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Don’t you get tired of saying that?”
“I don’t. I missed you so much that I wanted to die.”
“I know and don’t do that ever again.”
“I won’t.”
“Good then. So, what is it that you wanted to tell me the whole time?”
Haven already knew what Amber had to say but she was dragging the whole thing out for long. Haven subdued her beast in the morning and Amber came back to life in the afternoon. Ever since the second Amber stepped into her bathroom they never left and it was already midnight.
“Can’t we eat first?”
“No, tell me first and you will have your food,” Haven said.
“Okay but don’t say no,” Amber said seriously.
Haven grinned and kissed Amber’s nose.
“I will never say no to you baby.”
Haven watched as Amber crawled out of the bed naked and went to her drawer where she took out a small box. What was in store for her in that box?
Amber came back to the bed and she climbed on top of her.
“What’s this? Are you trying to seduce me back to bed after being intimate for so many hours?”
“We have so much to catch up on,” she replied.
“So, what is in that box?”
“Oh!” she exclaimed and opened it.
Haven felt the power of the gems and knew it was time.
“Haven, will you marry me?” Amber asked her.
Haven tugged Amber’s hair behind her ear and looked at her.
“Will you be able to handle all this?” Haven asked as she looked at herself.
“I can handle you. Just like you I suffered death and you brought me back. I can’t live without you and you can’t either. Otherwise you wouldn’t have turned into that huge snake that time,” she mocked.
“You really pay attention! If I agree to marry you then my lovely girl, you will have to drink my blood daily. Can you do that?”
“I can as long it’s you. I am yours and you are mine. We are just one, so are you going to give me a proper reply now?”
“Can you stop being impatient?”
“No, I have been waiting for two weeks for this,” she said and just like a nymph Amber licked Haven’s lips and she moaned.
“I can torture you like this until you give me an answer Haven,” she threatened her.
“Since when did you become like this?”
“Ever since I realized that being without you makes me mad,” Amber said continuing her torture.
Haven could feel her blood running in her bloodstreams. Her heart was racing like crazy and Amber was succeeding on making her wanton. Haven pulled Amber down to her and kissed her hard and long. Amber pulled back after a while and looked at her.
“Is it a yes?”
“Yes, I will marry you. I can never marry anyone else besides you Amber St Claire,” Haven said smiling at her fiancé now.
What was going to be lying ahead of her with this new love of hers? All she wanted was just to live a happy and a long life with Amber.
“Let’s get married next week,” Amber shouted.
“No, let’s put things in order first before we do that baby girl. And just because we are getting married, you won’t be slacking in your studies. If you do, I won’t marry me at all!” Haven said.
“You can’t do that?”
“I can baby. Have you forgotten who your fiancé is already?” she asked and saw Amber’s face changing.
“I almost forgot that you are the Viper. I won’t slack in my studies,” she said sounding low.
“Now, aren’t you going to put the ring on my finger?”
“I will do that now,” she said and Haven smirked.
Amber saw it and she punched her.
“Ouch!” Haven cried out.
“I’m sorry,” Amber said laughing.
Haven smiled at her playful fiancé and let her put the seven-gem ring on her finger.
Haven hugged Amber so tightly and found tears rolling down her cheeks. In her life she had never thought that she will meet a person like Amber who was willing to follow her both in life and death; someone who could just accept her as she was; both righteous and evil.
In Amber, Haven had found an eternal partner, someone she was going to share the rest of her life with. Someone she had shared he blood bond with. Now she was wondering if Amber knew the consequences of having her blood but who cares, she wasn’t going to ruin anything at this moment.
It was a special night; one she was going to cherish for the rest of her life.
“I love you too Amber,” she said and heard Amber laughing.
She couldn’t wait to tell the whole world that Amber was hers.
