Chapitre 260: Uneasy

Skender left the ball hall and took Roxana to the garden so they could have a moment alone. 

"What are you doing?" She chuckled when he kept leading her away. "We can't leave everyone behind." 

"I want you alone for a moment." He took them around the tall hedges so no one could see them and then he drew her into his arms and kissed her.

She smiled against his lips as she kissed him back. Not wanting to waste a second, he reached for the ring in his pocket without tearing his lips from her and put it on her ring finger.

Roxana drew back and looked at her hand. Her eyes widened. "Oh… is this…sapphire?"

"Do you like it?" 

She touched the large crystal. "It is like your eyes." She said looking up at him. "I love it." 

She tiptoed to kiss him and he possessed her with his lips again. "I wish this night could never end." She said. 

He smiled. "We need to have our wedding day." 

She chuckled. "Right."
