CHAPTER 28

Xavier took something out of his robes and he gave it to her. She looked at him and then at what was placed in her hand and she was confused. Xavier had placed two white jadeite rings in her hands. They represented marriage, a union between a man and a woman. If she put them on then that meant she was agreeing to a marriage proposal.

“I know this is sudden but I don’t think I can ever wait. I want to spend every second of the day with you. I want the whole world to know that you are mine and I’m yours. I don’t want anyone to persecute you. I just want to spend the rest of my life proving my love to you. Can you be my wife?” he asked her.

She was shocked and excited at the same time. It’s been days since they confirmed their feelings for each other and yet now he was proposing for marriage. She wanted this so much but she knew the great sacrifices that would come with it.
