Chapter 216 – Bonus (E&R) – Would She Say Yes? (Part 2)
**Rosalie’s POV
“How about this one?” Vicky picked up the nineteenth ring from the sales lady at the store and put it on my ring finger,
“It’s beautiful,” I commented, as she moved on to the twentieth.
“Oh, look, this is stunning too!” she said.
Vicky invited me for a girls’ day out since Ethan, Talon, and Paul had been busy with border patrols. She said it had been a while, and we both deserved a break from work.
When we arrived at the shopping district, she took me directly into an elegantly decorated back room in one of the jewelry stores so that we wouldn’t attract unnecessary attention from the public.
The store staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional, making the shopping experiences very pleasant, especially after I insisted that they not stand on ceremony.
After a while, I noticed with amusement that Vicky kept handing things at me to try on.
“You seem more interested in me measuring things than you do,” I said jokingly.
“Not at all. I just think it’s more efficient to see how they would look when they are being worn,” she denied and walked around the store. As if she wanted to prove me wrong, she pointed at a beautiful necklace. “This one, for example, think I’ll try it on myself so that you can take a break.”
chuckled, and took a sip of the tea that was provided, watching her put it on.
A flower-shaped violet stone rested in the center of the garment. The chain was made of white gold and decorated with small golden details.
“It’s absolutely gorgeous on you, Vicky!” I complimented her. “It goes so well with your eye color.”
She seemed to also be very pleased with her choice. “I love it too!” After a long while, she took it off and placed it back to where she had found it.
I commented, “Now, we need to look for a pair of earrings to go with it.”
“Wait, Rosalie. What about you? Haven’t you ever dreamed about your wedding day?” she asked me. “About the ring you’ll wear or the dress?”
“At some point, I’ve thought about it,” I affirmed. “But not lately. Well, let’s not get side tracked. Vicky, if you think Paul may propose soon, we gotta get your wedding gear ready.”
“But Rosalie, you still haven’t told me which one of those rings you love most….”
Theld her hands, “Vicky, we are here today for you. I’m only here to support you. You have to make the decision.”
“But…” For some reason, she seemed a bit stressed at my words. I figured she might have felt bad that I hadn’t picked anything. What she didn’t know was that, although I only owned one piece of jewelry, that was all I needed.

“So the question was, have YOU decided on which ring?” I smiled at her.
th
“Your Majesty,” Seraphine knocked at the door, “It’s the weekend. Why don’t you call it a day? Work is always there, and I’m not aware of any emergencies.”
I looked up at her and thought for a moment. “You’re right.”
“Also, Alpha Ethan is back, too, and he is waiting for you.”
I stood up immediately and couldn’t help the smile that crept up my lips, Ethan told me earlier today that he had some important meetings not far away from Mirage and might be late. It seemed that he finished everything early,

to Drogomor pack. Not knowing what to think, I looked at him curiously. He had a mysterious smile on his face. “Will you put it on for me?” I looked at him without understanding, but I agreed to play along. I rushed up to my room and got dressed, feeling a strange mixture of anxiety and excitement as I did. This dress brought back a lot of memories full of nostalgia, longing and even sadness, but also a lot of happiness. As i walked down, I saw Ethan waiting in the same place where I had left him. I took his hand, and he led us through the gardens. “Where are we going?” I asked him. “You’ll see.” We walked down the hill and into a grove of old trees until we came to what appeared to be a tangle of wild rose bushes. I looked at him curiously, and Ethan’s smile

“You’ll have to come in to find out,” he motivated me.
I did as he asked and went through a passage I hadn’t noticed. The further I went down the path, the more it looked familiar…
I turned around to look at Ethan who was a few steps behind me, but he only gave me a nod as if he was asking me to continue on my own.
Passing the rose bushes, I could hear my breath getting faster. I was excited to find out what would be in front of me if my guess was correct, it would be
My eyes widened in disbelief. At the end of the path, I found a garden – a hidden garden that was just like the one in my memories. Beautiful flowers grew everywhere, and the floral scents surrounded me.
The memories of the best days of my childhood flooded into my mind, and they brought tears to my eyes. This place was almost identical to the secret garden that my mother had built for us.
There was only one difference. In the very center of it was a swing with two seats, and one of the seats was already occupied. Yes, Rowan was already properly secured in the swing seat designed for me, and the moment he saw us, he
giggled and waved his little arms and legs at us.
“How did you…?”
“Sit down,” Ethan said gently after he quickly gave Rowan’s small fist a squeeze. Rowan giggled even more. There was no doubt that he adored his father.
I sat down next to Rowan and took his little hand, which made him start laughing. Ethan stood behind us and gave us gentle pushes,
“Ethan, I couldn’t believe it! How did you do all this?” I asked him in awe.
