Elise And Loriel

Elise looked at Loriel in surprise and felt tears prick her eyes. Her heart pounded loudly that she thought she heard her blood pumping in her ears. 

Did she hear him correctly? 

Was Elise dreaming or did Loriel actually say that he wanted to learn how to love her?

Surely she wasn't imagining this, right?

Elise didn't think that this day would actually come for the two of them but now she was so happy to hear it come from his lips. She began to wipe the tears that streamed down on her face.

Loriel looked nervously at his wife when he saw her in tears.  He quickly held her hand and stared at her worriedly. "Elise, are you okay? Did I say something wrong? I'm incredibly sorry if I said something wrong again."

The man said something wrong when he said he wanted to learn how to love, didn't he? Would it have been better to say that he now loved her? Loriel just wanted to be truthful with Elise and let her know of his heart's circumstances.
