"I doubt that's true," she chuckled. "I haven't heard anything about your family since we came here. I imagine they've fallen out of favor or been sidelined since there have been so few monsters since I disappeared."
"You're probably right," he sighed, realizing the truth. "I even googled my family name and came up with nothing at all. There seem to be very few of us still active, if any."
"Soooo…" she giggled, batting her eyelashes.
Alaric was momentarily puzzled. "So, what?"
"Can Thanaros marry us?"
Alaric laughed. "I suppose, if it makes you happy. But I haven't proposed yet."
"Well hurry up and propose, dammit!" she hissed, crossing her arms.
"I just assumed we were on the same page about that. We're bound together forever—thanks to the bloodbond, I mean, it's actually pretty likely that you won't even age."
"Sounds like I'm stuck with you," he said, sauntering over to the vampire on his bed.
