"Stephen? Did I say something wrong?""No," he answered, quietly. "I just don"t know what I did to deserve you. Honestly, I love all of this, and this is like something out of my wildest dreams. But I just keep getting this feeling that I don"t deserve you, Grace."
"Hey," she whispered, softly, while her hand gently lifted his chin to meet her gaze. "The magic doesn"t lie. All of this time, all of these centuries, I was meant to be opened and possessed by you. You say you"re not worth it? All you"ve done since you"ve opened my portal is show me why you are the only man who deserves such a treasure. Everything about who you are, what you think, what you do. I can see all of that already, Stephen. You are the man for me, and there is no doubt about that."
Her hand slipped to the side of his cheek, gently caressing with a tender touch. Stephen"s eyes gazed deep into her, sharing a moment of unbridled emotion.
"Don"t ever doubt that you are worth it. You are everything," she whispered, as one solitary tear slipped down her cheek.
"I"m never going to take you for granted, Grace. I promise you that," he responded, gently. "I know you"re bound to me, but I"m going to do everything I can to show you how much I appreciate you, and how desired you are. Every single day. I think few people in the world can really fathom what a gift you are. And I always want you to know that, even when I feel like I don"t deserve you, you are wanted and appreciated, for everything you are."
Grace sniffled a little more, managing a teary eyed smile as her hand continued to caress his cheek. "You silly man, you"re supposed to be making me h.o.r.n.y, not making me cry!" She giggled, breaking some of the tension.

"I"m sorry," laughed Stephen. "I"m still rather new to this."
"Well, no more talk about doubts or deserving or anything like that for now. Just shut up and kiss me, okay?" She asked, before adding, "As long as you still want to?"
