My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

"What is it? Peter, I don't understand... I've never asked you for anything. Well, except earlier, when I made you promise not to leave me alone with our kids. That alone would make me happy."

"I know! But this time, I want to do things right... I mean, I'm a man, a proper man-I can't keep doing things halfway anymore.

"Celeste... I love you, and I will never leave you alone. That's why there's something I have to ask you... "Will you marry me? I can't promise it'll be easy, but I swear it'll be one hell of an adventure—at least for as long as I have left."

Peter pulled out a small ring-a blue sapphire surrounded by fourteen diamonds.

He had asked Maximus to get that exact design. It had been made for a well-known princess. He would've loved to create something unique, but given the circumstances, he had to improvise.

Peter knew gemstones well; in his past, it had been one of his many skills. He understood their meanings. A sapphire symbolized purity, honesty, trust, and loyalty all qualities he had seen in Celeste. And if diamonds meant eternal love, surrounding the sapphire with them was his way of proving that every day for the rest of his life.

Celeste stared at the ring. It was stunning. She had never imagined someone would propose to her with something like this.

"What do you say? Say something..."

Her eyes filled with tears. She looked at the man holding the ring, smiled, and then broke into sobs. A wave of emotions crashed over her, ones she couldn't even begin to understand. And, of course, her pregnancy hormones weren't helping.

"Yes... I do..." she whispered, her voice trembling as she leaned in and kissed Peter.
