(MARRIED TO THE DEVIL SON)VOLUME 3

40

Zamiel took her up on a tree to watch the ocean from above and far away. It shimmered, reflecting the starry night. It was a beautiful sight.

"Did my father allow you to take me out?" She asked, as they sat on a thick branch.

"I never asked for his permission." He said.

Heaven was surprised. Considering his personality, she thought he would ask.

"Heaven, I need this night with you. I have left my suffering, but it has not left me. I want to spend time with you so you can know the person I am, the person I have become, and decide if you still want to be with me. You still have the choice to walk away."

Heaven didn't want to push him, so she took the easy rode.

"Just don't try to make me dislike you. If I still choose to be with you, will you choose me back then?"

"I have already chosen you." He said.

Heaven smiled. As long as he had chosen her she could show him she had no intentions of walking away.

Ever.

"What else did my father tell you?"

"He asked me what I could offer you. If I could make you happy?"

"What did you say?" She asked.

"I told him I would do my best, that I would let you decide if you want me in your life or not."

"Do you think my father approves of you?"

He smiled. "I don't think he dislikes me even though he pretends to."

Heaven was glad to hear that. Now she would only have to convince the rest.

"Can you jump to that tree?" She asked, pointing at the one in front of them.

"Ladies first." He said.

Heaven couldn't believe him. For someone who has been worried about protecting her, she expected him to ask her to not do anything dangerous.

Turning to the tree, she tried to measure the distance with her eyes, then decided she could do it. Standing up on the branch, she looked ahead and prepared herself.

"Alright, I am jumping." She warned.

He just nodded.

Heaven jumped and caught the branch before climbing up. A smile lit her face as she felt proud of herself for being able to do it.

"Your turn." She called.

He easily jumped and climbed next to her.

"I want to try it again." She said.

There was an excitement in the danger.

"Go on." He smiled.

Heaven jumped from one branch to another now only catching the branch with help of her claws and jumping to the next one without climbing up on it. It felt like she was flying. She became too excited and missed catching the next branch. Suddenly she was falling, so she closed her eyes and embraced herself for the pain to come.

This would hurt, she thought, since the trees were very tall, but before she could hit the ground Zamiel caught her in his arms.

A gasp escaped her lips.

"Easy. You are getting to excited." He smirked.

"I thought I would break some bones tonight." She breathed.

"That can be exciting too. But let's not try that while you are with me or your family might think I did it."

Heaven threw her head back and laughed. The thought of Zamiel taking her back home with broken bones was ludicrous.
