Tabit looked at Fafnir incredulously. With trembling hands she touched the ring in his hand. "Fafnir…" she murmured his name as if it were like worship. And then tears pooled in her eyes. She wanted to hold them back. She wanted to freeze in time. She wanted to—
Tabit extended her left hand to him. As soon as he slipped the diamond ring in her ring finger, she launched herself on him and wrapped her arms around her neck. His arms came around her waist immediately and he embraced her tightly. She peppered kisses on his face, on his lips, on his neck and his hair, not realizing that she was also crying. Everything happened so fast that she didn't have the chance to process it.
Fafnir let her kiss him, reveling in her scent, her closeness and her body. He felt that this was all he needed in his life. "I love you, badly, madly," he murmured to her.
