"Emilie babe relax." Xavier said.

"NO! I HATE dances!" I screamed in rage.

I was furious with him. He expects me to just go along with a dance he just told me about and it's tomorrow?! I looked at Xavier with a cold look then I just walked out the door. I went to the kitchen to get food, and saw an amazing surprise. Claudia was here!

"Claudia!" I screamed as I ran to her, and tackled her giving her a hug.

"Geez child don't knock me over." She said in her sweet voice.

"Claudia can you make me some cookies?" I asked with pleading eyes.

"Of course dear." She walked into the kitchen to prepare them for me.

I sat there happily knowing my favorite things in the world were being made for me. Suddenly, I felt two arms wrap around my waist. I was lifted up then sat on a lap. I turned my head to see Xavier smiling at me.

"So are you happy about Claudia being here?" He asked.

"Yes thank you." I said.

We sat in silence for a while because I was still mad at him for not telling me about the dance.

"Emilie, amour please forgive me. I didn't want you to get mad." He said with pleading eyes.

"Well Xavier I am mad." I said turning away from him.

"How can I be forgiven?" He asked.

"Don't make me go." I said with a sly smile.

"Emilie you have to go." He said sighing loudly.

I sighed, and closed my eyes because my head was pounding. I felt Xavier's lips lightly touch my neck sending tingles through me. He then started to full on kiss my neck making me moan.

"Xavier. Stop." I said but it sounded pathetic thanks to me moaning.

"Emilie you have to go." He repeated in between kisses.

"No!" I said trying to push him off of me.

He continued to kiss me, but he slowly started moving up till his lips were right by my ear.

"Nous savons tous les deux que vous ne voulez pas que je cesser." He whispered seductively in my ear.

"Fine Xavier. Fine." I said giving in.

Dear god he was going to be the death of me, but for him I guess I'll take it.

"I knew it." He said with a smirk.

Finally he kissed me on the mouth. I pulled him by his hair closer to me, and he growled a sexy low growl.  Our kiss was on the verge of becoming more than a kiss when..

DING!

"THE COOKIES ARE DONE!" I screeched and ran to the oven ripping myself away from Xavier.

Claudia came out with my loves. She just smiled and handed me the plate. I quickly hugged her then ran to the couch. I put one of the heavenly sweets in my mouth, and moaned at the amazing taste. Xavier sat beside me grumbling quietly.

"What was that?" I asked smiling with a cookie in my mouth.

"Nothing Emilie. Nothing at all." He said in a slightly angry tone.

"MMMHMM." I continued eating all of the cookies piled on my plate.

Once I was finally done, I threw away my plate then sat back down next to Xavier.

"So about this ball?" I questioned.

Xavier whipped to face me with one eyebrow raised in question.

"What about it?"

"What do I have to wear? Whose coming? Anyone I know?" I asked.

"Well I believe you can design your own dress, but it must be black and red. Second all of the important vampires will be there. They will be the ones who we must associate with most of the time. Finally, the only person you know that's coming is myself and Summer." He finished looking at me.

"Ok." Was all I said.

I was thinking over what my dress should look like. Should it be short? Long? Medium? Sleeveless? Questions continued to run through my mind until I thought of something that dumbfounded me.

"Xavier?"

"Yes?"

"Do your people know you are a hybrid?" I questioned.

He stayed silent for a long while then answered me.

"Yes, the truth is I'm supposed to rule vampires and werewolves, but when I split into two they had two separate leaders. I don't know how to get my two peoples to be in harmony again." He said this looking down as if he were ashamed.

"Xavier you do know you will have to rule more than that?" I asked.

"Yes I know once we are married you and I will be rulers of all races." He said.

"Except humans." I laughed.

"True. Except humans." He laughed with me.

For a while we sat in silence contemplating all the responsibility we would one day possess. It dawned on me that I was going to have to rule people, and make important decisions. I knew Xavier would constantly be in danger, but he was willing to be. I slowly looked up to see Xavier staring at me. I looked around realizing it was nighttime. We have been thinking for hours now, but when you can live forever does time really matter? Xavier stood up and took me by the hand. He led me to our room. We both changed in silence, and we got into the bed. He pulled me by the waist to him while putting his face in the crook of my neck.

"Xavier?" I whispered into the dark.

"Yes mi amour?" He asked in his deep sexy voice.

"How do you feel about having all this responsibility?"  I questioned.

"I feel unsure about it all. How about you?" He asked.

"Honestly? I'm scared Xavier I'm really scared."

"I know. Whatever we face Emilie just know that I will always love, and I always have your back."

I snuggled closer to him in that moment because I felt loved, and he pulled me closer. I felt his lips on my hair like a butterfly's wings against my cheek.

"Goodnight Emilie I love you no matter what." He whispered into my hair.

I fell into a dreamless sleep that night, and for once I was at peace.
