Chapter Twenty-two– Taking a break

{Damon}

She heard me, completely. Without interrupting. She needs time, to think. What she wants in life. Whom she wants?

“Will you leave me. If I choose Victor over you.” She asked me with shaky voice. She still wasn’t sure about me. I had to make my point clear.

“Delilah, hear me out.” I took a deep breath and started, “I love you. Nothing can change that. Not even you. But, if you stay with me, I want you completely devoted to me. I don’t want anyone else occupying your heart; your emotions; even your anger; except me. Right now, in this rush, that’s not going to happen. Take your time. You matter to me and always will. Above all, your happiness matters to me.”

I shared my thoughts and she looked at me with utter shock. She doesn’t know how much she is being loved. She said nothing but kissed me. I kissed her back as if it was our last kiss. I opened my eyes a little bit just to see small amount of wetness around her lashes.
