Her Healing Touch.

Chapter 22. Cambryn and Belanna's P.O.V.

I grabbed a hold of Bella's hands and after placing a kiss on both of them, I began reciting my vows of love to her. 

    "I, Cambryn Heath Mckladdon, in the name of the spirit of God that resides within us all, by the life that courses within my blood and the love that resides within my heart, take thee Belanna Skye McKenzie to my hand, my heart, and my spirit, to be my chosen one. To desire thee and be desired by thee, to possess thee, and be possessed by thee, without sin or shame, for naught can exist in the purity of my love for thee.  I promise to love thee wholly and completely without restraint, in sickness, and in health, in plenty and in poverty, in life and beyond, where we shall meet, remember, and love again. I shall not seek to change thee in any way. I shall respect thee, thy beliefs, thy people, and thy ways as I respect myself."

After reciting my vow I leaned forward and kissed her on the cheek. Then before pulling away, I whispered in her ear, that it was her turn. 

Belanna's P.O.V.

I breathed in deeply and smiling up at him, I began to speak my vows.

    "I...,  Belanna Skye McKenzie, in the name of the spirit of God that resides within us all, by the life that courses within my blood, and the love that resides within my heart, take thee, Cambryn Heath Mckladdon to my hand, my heart, and my spirit to be my chosen one. To desire and be desired by thee, to possess thee, and be possessed by thee, without sin or shame, for naught can exist in the purity of my love for thee. I promise to love thee wholly and completely without restraint, in sickness, and in health, in plenty and in poverty, in life and beyond, where we shall meet, remember, and love again. I shall not seek to change thee in any way. I shall respect thee, thy beliefs, thy people, and thy ways as I respect myself."

Cambryn then placed a small and simple gold band on my third finger which sealed his undying faith and the love that he had for me. Then we both turned back to look at the priest and waited for him to finish his blessing.

  "By the power that Christ brought from heaven, and the blessed honor from our Lord, King William II, I pronounce you to be husband and wife. What God has yoked together, let no man pull asunder. You may kiss your bride."

Both Cambryn and I looked at each other and stepping towards each other, we leaned in  and sealed our vows with their kiss. The hall erupted with shouts, and clapping and merrymaking. They were then pulled into the crowd and brought over to the dais, where they were seated beside the king and his lovely Queen Mary. The feasting then took place and lasted throughout the night. 

I was sipping on second dram of Heather ale when I felt, Cambryn's hand on my thigh. He leaned towards me and kissing me on the neck, he whispered his urge for me, and that if I wanted, that I should accompany him to our new chambers. 

I giggled and gave him a peck on the cheek and nodded my head. With that, he pulled me into his arms and amidst the cheering of the crowds, and the rebelling remarks from both of his brothers, he carried me up the stairs and into our bedchamber. After undressing me bit by bit, he extinguished all the lights, but for one that sat on the bedside table and joined me in bed.

"Before we begin making love, will you promise me something, Cambryn?"

Cambryn's kisses halted for a brief moment, then inhaling her unique smell of honey and roses, he gazed into her eyes and kissed her on the lips.

  "Anything, my love."

"Will you promise me that you will love me forever and never stray?"

Cambryn laughed, "My love, I take my vows seriously. I will love you forever and till the end of time. Now, My love, may I continue bringing you to paradise?"

I nodded, and slipped further under the covers and enjoyed my enchanting wedding night.
