My Story (A Zak Bagans Romance) UNDER RE-WRITING FOR A WHILE

Chapter 63

After Zak, Mrs. York, and I all finished our dinner, and had desert, Mrs. York and I went to the sewing room to talk, while Zak went to go and drink a Brandi. Mrs. York held the hand that held my engagement ring, and she was in awe. “I’m truly happy for you and Zak, but before the wedding comes, we have to make sure that you are safe, and the people around you.” “I assure you,” Zak said coming up to me and holding my shoulders. “Everything will be all situated and deal with before the wedding. We just need to pick a date.” Zak said smiling.

                I held one of his hands that was on my shoulder and sighed. “What if he threatens me, or my family?” I asked both of them. “No one would ever threaten you or your family. I won’t allow it.” Zak said. Mrs. York nodded, agreeing with Zak. Then, a howl was heard not too far from the house. Zak and Mrs. York went pale. “He’s here.” Zak said. “Kandice!!” Zak yelled. Kandice ran in the room. As soon as she ran in, Zak started talking. “He’s here. Take Shelby somewhere safe. Take her to Anjelica’s house. Go and get the carriage!” He ordered and Kandice was already running out the door. Zak picked me up and held me close to him. Like it was the last time we were going to see each other.

I pulled Zak’s face down to me, and kissed him. I started to cry. “Zak. I’m scared.” I said crying. Zak held me tight in his arms, daring not to ever let go. “I know my love. But I need to end this now. You will stay at Angelica’s until it is safe, or until the wedding. I love you.” He said looking into my eyes. I looked into his eyes. “I love you more Zak. Please be safe.” I said. “Don’t worry. I promise I will be back for you.” Zak promised. Mrs. York was already gone and calling, I guess, her clan. Then, the carriage pulled up. Zak had to bridal carry me to the carriage. He set me down on the plush seat, but I didn’t dare let him go. “No. I can’t let you go.” I said crying even more. “Shelby. Mrs. York will drop by once in a while, and I will write to you as soon and as often as I can. I will send your stuff tomorrow. I love you.” I didn’t say anything. I didn’t have to. I kissed him with so much love and passion. “Please return. This bride needs her groom.” I said as we both laughed a little. “And this bride,” He said bopping my nose, I laughed. “Will have her groom. He just needs to finish some business, that’s all.” He said. I kissed him one last time. Then, Mrs. York came up to me and handed me a locket and a travel picture frame. “Incase if you get lonely and need to smile.” She said as she smiled at me.

                I opened the locket and smiled. It was a picture of Zak. And in the travel picture frame, a picture of Zak and his family. I smiled at the picture. “Thank you.” I said. “I love you.” Zak said. “And I love you.” I said, and I kissed him. Then, Zak closed the carriage door, and then the crack of a whip is heard and the carriage was leaving. I looked behind the little window and saw Zak waving. And crying.
