She lifted the meat to find a small black object on her plate. Curiously she picked it up. Surveying it from all sides, she tried to figure out what it was. I pressed a button in a remote carefully hidden in my pocket. The object broke open and inside was a flawless, 24-carat diamond studded engagement ring.

It took a while for the moment to sink in. She looked over to see me on one knee in front of her. Time stopped for us.

"Monica Mary Devereaux, I love you with all my heart. You are the light that guides me through life and makes every day worth living. Will you make me the happiest person in the world? Will you marry me?"

A sob caught in her throat as the entire scenario just sank in. She looked at me with an expression of awe mixed with an intense love.

"Yes, I will marry you."

Before she could say anything else, I grabbed her head and forced her into a kiss. The ardency and tenderness of this kiss was unmatched by any other. Everybody stopped their meals to applaud.

That night while we lay in bed together, I ruminated on the events of my life, particularly in the past few months.

For the first time, my night was silent. No nightmares, no urges, no hallucinations and no latent desires. Just an overwhelming feeling of peace and serenity as I lay beside the woman I loved more than anything else.

This is not the ending, there is an epilogue. If you have made it till here, I would appreciate your comments and votes.

not sure

if its your writing, or my tendancy to read these stories....these two are flawed characters, each with an experience that shaped their lives, should they be absolved from it all, in a pure world, no, but the world isn't like that, should they be allowed to live their lives together, that's an unknown because im sure these urges and monica rages just as much as simon does, that it hasn't disappeared from their lives, they will struggle till the end

Tough read but well written

I have to say this is a much darker series than I am used to, and a bit tough to get through at times. Very well put together, and the only thing that seems off to me was the drug/memory session. I understand that the back story was crucial to developing Simon, but the way it was relayed with rooms was odd to me. Anyhow thanks for writing this and I look forward to the epilogue.

Do you realise just how big a 24 carat diamond is?

OMG!

The stuff with Jessica was shockingly lurid. The scene with Emily and the proposal give me hope!

I'm very impatient so rather than leaving feedback I'm going to the next one and I'll talk then.
