¡°Okay the green one it is.¡± She said trying to hold her smile as he took the dresses away.??She blinked up at him as he took her hands. And at his words her head dropped and more tears fell. ¡°I don¡¯t think he was trying to punish. I know he wasn¡¯t.¡± she said
¡°My father loved me. ?Many of the vampires who came to visit him would look down on him for the way he treated me with such kindness and love and devotion. Even his wife Millicent would speak ill of me and call me a dog. But he always tried to protect me. And made sure my brothers loved and protected me too. What I did was a crime for a hybrid. He was trying to make it so no one would ever know.?I¡¯m sure he was trying to protect me when he took my fangs.¡±
She looked up at him. ¡°Loosing my fangs never ever made me feel anything until now. You are the great Lord Draven Phillips. And I don¡¯t ever want you to feel that you are settling with me. And that I am less than your expectation. Or that?You deserve so much better than a defanged hybrid.¡±
(Draven)
Draven smiled at her, he didn't argue about her father, but in truth the man was punishing her even if she didn't see it that way.? He listened to her and just nodded.? Then she spoke again of being less than.? "Now, stop that way of thinking.? True I am the great Lord Draven Phillips, which, my love, makes you the great Lady Anais.? I will never think that I am settling with you.? Now, stand up tall and be proud of who you are.? You are my everything and never forget it."
