He pulls out a little blue velvet ring box and opens it. Inside was a beautiful ring. The giant purple, sparkly stone in the center is square with rounded edges, down the sides of the band are little white diamonds. | gasp and put both hands up to my mouth. | feel my eyes getting wider. | look from the ring to Bronx and back again. A purple aura starts to glow brightly around me. Bronx puts his hand on my knee and starts to glow too.

 

“|...Bronx, where...|...you," | feel so flustered, | can't form a sentence. Tears start pooling in my eyes, threatening to spill over. | manage t0 pull one hand away from my mouth enough to point to the ring and whimper, " Where did you get that?” : “| stopped in Paris after my first visit with you at the coven and had it custom made.

Without warning, | throw my arms around him, crashing my lips onto his. Surely he had to know this was going to get him laid, right? Well if he didn't he does now. 2

 

| wake up the next morning tired but in a completely blissful state. | just got engaged and now it's the winter solstice. Not only that, | get to join in on the festivities. But first | have to get out of Bronx's clutches. | swear he has the arms of an octopus. °

 

| finally get him off of me, | roll over and look at my hand. The engagement ring is still there. Last night was real. Oh my Goddess, | still can't believe it. | look out the window with a huge smile on my face. It's gently snowing. Oh, man! | feel a twinge of sadness because | know if Lex was here, she would have loved to go for a snow run with the pack.
