Brittany's words hung in the air, a declaration of love that resonated deep within Damien's chest. His heart, long thought to be dead, stirred with a faint beat, a spark of life that had been dormant for centuries.
Damien's eyes locked onto Brittany's, his gaze burning with intensity. He took a step closer, his voice barely above a whisper. "Brittany, my love, my heart beats for you alone."
Brittany's eyes widened, her breath catching in her throat. She felt the weight of Damien's words, the depth of his emotion. She knew that she had touched his heart, that she had awakened a part of him that had long been dormant.
As they stood there, the air between them crackled with tension. Damien's eyes burned with a fierce passion, his heart pounding in his chest. Brittany's own heart raced, her soul reaching out to his.
And then, in a moment that seemed to stretch into eternity, Damien's lips brushed against Brittany's. The kiss was soft, gentle, yet it held a power that shook Brittany to her core.
As they kissed, Brittany felt Damien's heart beat stronger, its rhythm matching her own. She felt his love, his passion, his very soul. And she knew that she was his, forever and always.
The kiss deepened, their hearts beating as one. And in that moment, Brittany knew that she had found her true home, her true love, her true heart. She was a vampire, and she was Damien's, forevermore.
