At these words, my heart fills with an insurmountable joy. After spending months fretting like a mother over how I was to acquire the flame, how I was going to bargain with Soren, or if I was even going to be able to institute a bargain to begin with, now to hear those grievances washed away...
I could not have asked for a better husband, a better mate, a better anyone. Soren truly is the perfect creature, vampire or not.
I wipe my eyes to dash away the welling pools of water that start to form there.
After all this time, I think, my eyes pricking with the soft, stinging sensation of tears that threaten to spill down onto my cheek, all this time and I had nothing to worry about. It seems almost stupid now, to think I wasted so many hours of my life lamenting over nothing.
