CHAPTER 90.
“I just…I don’t feel like I belong here,” I said and looked down, too ashamed to look into his eyes. I felt his finger under my chin and he tilted my head back. My eyes flickered between his lips and his eyes
“You do,” he said and leaned down, he placed a soft kiss on the side of my
my mouth.
“You belong here,” he said and kissed my jaw. He raised his head, his eyes locking me down and he stepped closer, brushing his body against mine.
sink.
“You belong with me.” He said and kissed my lips, I drew a sharp breath and released it heavily feeling my chest and my shoulders.
He continued placing soft kisses on my lips and his other hand rested on my waist.
1 leaned forward, pressing myself against him and my mind and my thoughts ceased to exist. I pressed my lips harder onto his and grabbed onto the back of his head..
His tongue slipped in and he held me so hard as if begging me to stay. Worried that if he let go, I’ll be gone. He gently lifted me and placed me on the bed.
“I’m begging you,” he said and removed my shirt. He grabbed my head and pulled me to him, kissing down my neck and caressing my back. “Stay with me.”
I was laying on my back, my body burning for his touch and my hand dragging over his muscles.
He lifted my leg slightly and removed my panties. As he held my leg he raised his head and gazed into my eyes.
“I won’t do anything that you don’t w
want me to,” I grabbed onto his hair and slammed my lips on Nick’s.
“Get inside of me.” I moaned and he needed no further confirmation. Nick’s tip slid in and he moved so slowly as though I would
break he went any faster.
“I can take it,” I said, feeling agitated at the slow pace. I wanted him, all of him, faster and more.
“I’m gonna savor this and take my time.” He said and pressed my head down into the bed. I saw the smirk playing on his lips and
head. when he slid in all the way and pressed against my wet folds my head flew back and my eyes rolled back into my
-Gabby’s POV-
As I and Aiden walked into the room, I gasped and my hands flew up to cover my mouth. The room had been filled with roses, and petals sprinkled on the floor and the bed. Candles were lit all over and chocolate-covered strawberries, which looked a little like a child had made them, were placed on the bed along with cookies and a bottle of wine.
“You did this?” I gasped and looked at him.
He rubbed his hands on his shirt and drew in a deep breath. Why did he look so nervous?
“I did,” he said and nodded his head. He walked into the center of the room and I was looking in awe at everything he had done. There was not one single surface that hadn’t been covered in rose petals or a vase with red roses in it.
I turned back around in utter shock and gasped once again. My heart started racing, my palms suddenly grew sweaty and my eyes began to water. There he was, in the center of the room, the candles illuminating his face and he stood on one knee with a box in his hands.

He opened the box, exposing the heart-shaped crystal ring.
“What is this?” I cried.
It
was given “We didn’t get this part. We didn’t get to do it the right way, I never got to eam your love and your hand in marriage, to me. I promised you that I would spend the rest of my life replacing every bad memory in that beautiful head of yours with something beautiful and I will stay true to that promise til the day I die. Because not only is it for you but I have never felt happier than when I see you smile of see you truly enjoying a memory that I have helped create. So, I want to ask you, Gabriella Santos, will you marry me? Will you do me the honor to love you every single day for the rest of my life? The tears fell one by one but for the first time in my life, they weren’t of sadness. They were of pure joy and love and my heart had never been so full, so happy and so incredibly
very calm.
“Yes,” I cried and laughed through the tears. He smiled from ear to ear, standing up and taking out the ring. He removed the one I had since before, the round crystal ring he had given me on the day we got married and he replaced it with the heart.
“Yes,” I cried again and swung my arms around him.
1 and Aiden consummated our marriage for the hundredth time but this time felt different, It felt like we had our wedding night as it should’ve been. We were sitting in bed, eating strawberries and cookies, sipping on wine, and talking.
“Did you make these?” I asked as 1 bit down on a strawberry.
“Is it that obvious?” He said with a grin as he picked up his own one that was drenched in chocolate.
laughed and nodded my head.
I and leaned in, placing a kiss on my husband’s lips. I saw his brows furrowed in
“They are by far the best I’ve ever had,” I said and question and the air around us changed slightly.
“Are you worried?” He asked and searched my eyes.
“About the attack?” He nodded his head in response.
“We’ve taken on worse before, I don’t see why this time would be any different.” I said. “This time we don’t know who our enemy is,”
he said.
“Is there anyone you can think of?” He shook his head.
I wish there was but the only one I have in mind is dead. Do you?”
“My first thought would’ve been my parents but they’re dead too so it can’t be them.”
“Did they have any enemies?” I looked at him with furrowed brows and couldn’t help but laugh. They were power-thirsty psychopaths, they had nothing but enemies,” I said and shook my head
“Anyone that stands out?” He asked and now he sounded more serious, as though it could actually be one of their enemies and it wouldn’t surprise me if it were.
“There was this one pack, they uhm, they refused the ally with my parents and so they…” I bit down on my tongue and thought back to that horrific day when my parents told me what they had done.
“What did they do?” Aiden asked.
“They burnt it to the ground, the whole pack. From what I heard, everyone died. Men, women… children.” Hu grabbed my chin and turned my head to face him.
“Their wrongdoings aren’t yours. You were just a kid, and even if you weren’t there was nothing you could’ve done .* 1 smiled and

leaned in, pressing my lips against his.
The next morning I and Aiden walked downstairs to have breakfast with everyone else. The second we stepped into the dining hall 1 could feel that something was different.
My eyes searched over everyone at the table and I saw Erin and Nick sitting next to each other but my eyes were drawn more to what was sitting on Erin’s neck.
“You’re marked?” I screamed and everyone jumped and turned around.
I stood gaping at the mark on her neck. Eriti smiled, her cheeks blushed and she dragged her fingers over the mark before gazing lovingly into my brother’s eyes.
me.
“1 am,” she said. Nick smiled and I saw the mark on his neck as well.
“Does this mean you’re staying?” She looked at me silently for a second and then back at Nick. Erin turned her head and smiled at
“It does,” she said happily and the joy I felt was unexplainable.
Behind us, Edmund walked in. He, however, did not look happy one bit. A few of the girls stood and walked over to him but he shrugged them off and walked past all of them, not even sparing them glance. They scoffed and walked back to their tables with bruised egos
He sat down and didn’t say a word to anybody. He grabbed his plate and started eating. After him I saw Liliana stepping inside the dining hall, all eyes turned to her and I saw how the girls started brushing their fingers through their hair and pushing their chests out while the men drooled and could barely look straight.
She came over and sat down and an eery, uncomfortable stillness fell over us.
