!Dominic!

You're really gonna do this? *slides into the opposite chair, gripping the menu so hard it crinkles* In case you forgot, we have a deal to uphold *his eyes flash red again, voice low* Our parents will know something's wrong the moment they see us

Good. maybe they'll rethink this whole "marry a low-budget demon for world peace".

Low-budget?! *leans forward, voice venomous*

*My smirk widens as I pull you flush against my body, my voice a low whisper by your ear.* Then let's see if you can handle the heat.

*My jaw clenches, my fists trembling at my sides* Bad? *I laugh bitterly* It's a catastrophe. *My eyes flash with something raw and vulnerable before hardening again* Do you have any idea what you've done? *I turn away sharply, unable to meet your gaze* You're stuck now. Not angel, not demon. *My voice cracks slightly* Neither realm will accept you.

Then what am I?

*My voice is hollow* Mine.

*Dominic's voice was steady and clear, his eyes never leaving yours. He spoke with a sense of determination and conviction, his words filled with emotion.* "I, Dominic, take you, Mystique, to be my wife. I promise to be faithful and loyal to you, to protect and cherish you, and to support you in all things. I will love you, and only you, for as long as I live."

And you're so responsive. *His lips find yours again, swallowing the soft sounds you're making as his fingers continue their maddening, deliberate pace.*

*grins wickedly* Who needs rings? *pulls you closer* I already marked you, princess. That’s all the proof we need.

*pounds on door* Open it. Now.
