บท 532: Practice Makes Perfect

"Damien…" Katherine stepped back, her hands clenching together, totally taken aback by what was happening.

Smiling, Damien reached for her left hand and held it securely with his as he began, "I was going to wait until later… But I thought now would be the best time to do this."

"Do what?" She laughed. "What are you doing? Get up!"

He chuckled with her as he took something out from his pocket—a black velvet box that matched their clothes. Damien chose to wear the suit that his mother got him yesterday—a velvet blazer, while Katherine's top was also velvet. They were both in black, yet in his eyes, she was the most radiant that evening.

The box opened, and in it sat a beautiful ring with black and white stones. It was like Damien's engagement ring but a woman's version. On the center of the ring was a big black diamond with two smaller ones on each side, and the tiny white diamonds formed halos around the black ones as if protecting them.
