One Week To Twenty Years

Lucien blinked at Ronan in confusion.

"What is it?"

The Alpha took Lucien's hands by the wrists and pressed a chaste kiss on his knuckles.

"My love, it has been a struggle to arrive to this day.

Ever since I met you years ago, even throughout our break-up and separation, there had never been a day when I did not think about you.

Your presence in my life makes it worth living. 

Your kisses are what I need to start every morning.

Your love is the sweetest nectar that I ever taste.

Lucien, I love you with every drop of blood I have in my body.

Forever and always, my feelings for you will only grow stronger."

Drunk with love for his mate, the Alpha forgot that other people were present in the room. The two elders literally held their breaths for fear of ruining the tender, romantic ambiance.
