Finding my Mate in New York ( A Reylo Romance )

Chapter 7 - Only the Beginning

Notes:

Well friends. This is it. I've enjoyed writing this and I have to submit this today as a completed work for a challenge. Because it's for a challenge and was originally supposed to be three chapters, I've kept it a little cleaner than normal. I've left the door open for a sequel if you guys want one. I hope you enjoy this. Xoxo

I will be working on completing my other two fics in the meantime.
The Lycan in You and I another Star Wars Reylo ABO and Stay a Star Wars Romance with a little wolfyness thrown in.

I'd love to hear what you think!

"Rey, I want nothing more than to claim you and I'm going to do it very, very soon, I promise, but I'm not going to do it here on the street.

I want it to make it special for you. It want to do it right."

He smiled at her.

She smiled back.

He took her lips in the gentlest kiss and sighed. His whole body relaxed. This was right. He wasn't whole without her.

He tucked her under his arm and escorted her to their table on the upper balcony. It was very private.

He pulled out her chair for her and she sat down. He held her hand and spoke softly to her.

"I missed you so much. I don't know what I was thinking, sending you away. I just wanted to be sure that you were ready, I didn't want you to fear me. But you kept trying to tell me and I wasn't listening to you."

He rubbed little circles with his thumb on her hand.

"I missed you too, Ben. Please don't ever put me through that again. Whatever happens, we'll get through it together. I firmly believe that. I believe in you."

"I promise Baby, I won't. I promise. I need you by my side. I am here for you. I'll try to be a better listener for you."

He kissed her wrist, rubbed it on his neck glands, wanting her scent on him.

"Rey, I realized I can't breathe without you. We can never be apart, ever."

He kissed her head, then her cheek.

"Which brings me to why I wanted to bring you here tonight..."

He got down on one knee.

"Rey, I love you so much. There can never be another for me. I'll always put your care above my own. I promise to do everything in my power to ensure your happiness and safety. You have my heart, my protection and if necessary, my very life. I am yours and you are mine. Rey, my beautiful little Omega, will you marry me?"

He presented her with the ring.

She didn't speak or move. It seemed like an eternity went by. His voice shook:

"Please."

She covered her mouth with her hands. Tears streamed down her face.

She still hadn't answered.

Oh God, she's going to say no.....

He swallowed hard, his lips trembled as he fought to hold back tears of his own.

She finally choked out the word.

"Yes."

He put the ring on her finger and pulled her down onto his knee, wrapping his arms around her securely.

"Oh my God, Baby......there for a minute I thought you were going to say no..."

"I love you. I can never tell you no, Alpha."
