Chapter Thirty-Five - Let Me Save You

(Excuse any errors)

-Blaine-

A few months ago, if someone came up to me and told me that I would be in this very moment, I would have laughed and probably thought they were on drugs. Love, something that everyone around me had but skipped over me. I never feel deserving of it because of my past, until now.

I'm still expecting to wake up at any moment, back in my jail cell with my mom's blood on my hands and the ringing of the last shot still echoing through my head.

Maybe I should ask someone to pinch me because this is unbelievable. Is this another one of my dreams that will surely end as a nightmare? Or is Jordan really asking me to marry him in front of his entire pack, his father, and my newfound family members?

If this is a dream then I don't ever want to wake up.

"Jordan I-" I begin to say but a lump forms in my throat making it hard to speak. He looks so beautiful yet so nervous. Blaine say something. 
My eyes leave his and land on the shiny silver band with sparkling diamonds encrusted all around it.

The shock takes my body hostage as my brain tries to form words. I blink, allowing the burning tears to cascade down my face. I close my eyes and inhale, "Y-yes...yes!," I exhale with shortness of breath.

Jordan's eyes widen with realization and he pulls me into a hug that I can only describe as fierce-fully blissful. "Thank God! I thought I was going to have a stroke," Jordan mumbles breathlessly over my shoulder.  The room ignites with cheers and applauds which makes my body shake violently. After a long moment of Jordan holding me as if I were the last molecule of oxygen on earth, he steps back and slides the shiny hand on the ring finger of my left hand. 

My vision blurs and I let out a quiet sob before burying my face in his chest. "I love you so much," His voice trembles. "I love you," my voice trembles with emotion as I wrap my head around the fact that I'm now engaged to the man of my dreams.

Jordan kisses the top of my head and I crumble with joy. I've cried so much over these past few months but this time, it's different. Tears of joy would be an understatement at this moment. Jordan has yet again exceeded my expectations and made me feel a way that no one else has ever made me feel.

I cried so much that my head started to hurt. Everyone came up and congratulated us. Jordan kept his eyes on me as the night progressed. I too couldn't stop taking glances at him as I spoke to some of the pack members.

"Do I have to call you Mr. Westbrook now?" Hunter taps my shoulder. I chuckle and give him a hug, "Nope, you can still call me buddy," 

He smiles, "Good, Mr. Westbrook is too formal for me, Congratulations buddy,"

"Thank you," I smile warmly. "Blaine!!! Congrats!" Charlotte pulls me into a bear hug. I hug her back firmly and thank her. "Let see it!" She says looking down at my hand. Heat rises to my face as I hold my hand out.

"Aw, it's beautiful!! If fits you so well," She says whimsically. The ring is breathtaking and it fits perfectly. I wonder how Jordan was able to get my perfect ring size. I also wonder how much this cost. Probably an arm and a leg.

"So I guess we can tell you now," Helena says looking towards Charlotte knowingly. I raise an eyebrow and look at them confusedly. 

"Look at hour cuff links." Charlotte wiggles her eyebrows suggestively. I peel my eyes away from hers and look down at the shiny cufflink face. BRW.

My mouth falls open and I look up at Helena who has a wide grin plastered on her face, "Blaine Robinson Westbrook!" She cheers. I missed that completely when the girls were helping me get dressed, I didn't even bother to look at them let alone notice that Jordan added the W to my initials.
