After making the princess orgasm Alex stopped and said.
''I have not properly done it before but let me do it for real this time.''
"Eh?'' The princess was left bewildered not understanding what Alex was trying to do but her confusion got cleared when he said to her via mental transmission.
[Get dressed, I will take you on a midnight date where I will properly do it. You will like it. Sorry, for not having done this before.]
Immediately, Artemia understood and her heart throbbed and a sweet feeling gushed from the depth of her heart, making her chest flushing red. To think he would think of doing something like this right in the middle of their sex, she was overwhelmed by the love and nodded, she wanted the same thing as Luna and Maria, not exactly but closer to their declaration.
''Okay, I will be ready before you come and we will continue what we are doing at the end of the date.'' She said, not wanting to compromise on this one.
Before Alex could place one she added.
''Don't worry I also have a surprise for you w it will depend on your performance during our date.''
[Hoh? That's great, I will see you soon.] Alex said before disappearing to make the preparation, he was sure to be able completely to conquer her heart this time, as he had already decided, he would do anything to get stronger, to acquire strength to protect them. He knew what she wanted and it was exactly what he would do to maximize her feelings.
°°°°°°
One and half hours later, their second date had begun and the princess was dressed beautifully.
''As expected of my Lightning Empress, you're more beautiful than a goddess, you're simply gorgeous.'' Alex declared while kissing the back of her hand.
Artemia felt over the moon hearing his loving and sweet compliment. Her eyebrows which seemed as if they were brushed on a canvas, raised as her eyes smiled in happiness.
She hugged him intimately and felt how warm his chest was. A strange feeling of absolute safety and warmth always filled her body whenever she was in his embrace.
The first time she felt this was when circumstances forced them to copulate and he rescued her.
Starting from that day, she started developing feelings for him and before she knew it they were already in this kind of relationship and for her no matter how short or long the time she spent with him, she felt as if she had been with him for years, and a strange void in her heart would always be filled whenever he was near her. Something she had never experienced in her past life even when she thought she fell in love with that elf.
After meeting Alex that Artemia could say without hesitation that she found true love and wouldn't feel complete without him, and his existence gave meaning to her life.
Alex kissed her forehead and smiled as he pointed towards one of the chairs put out near the table he had prepared,
"Now, let's take a seat and have dinner. I have something special to give you. Otherwise, this dinner wouldn't be special.''
Like he did with her back then and the princess heard it, he was also doing the same thing and she felt loved, and important like the others.
Artemia took her time to look around her and could not help other than to be greatly impressed with how warm and beautiful the garden looked now with all the string lights and candles, highlighting the beautiful flowers and plants even more.
She took a seat after Alex pushed the chair for her to sit.
Alex sat opposite her and asked with a charming smile.
"It seems like you love the place I've rented, it costs me a lot but no amount of money can buy you, I gladly spent my entire fortune just to have you smile.''
Artemia felt a sweet feeling enveloping her heart, she gave a bright smile as she said, "Yes. It looks so beautiful, especially with the surrounding view. I feel very fresh and happy sitting here and having dinner like this. I'm happy that I've encountered you, let's hope this happiness last forever.''
''It will.'' He affirmed this before they both nodded, already set on their future together.
The two happily ate their food while lovingly gazing at each other's eyes, while at times they would look at the scenic view outside and enjoy it.
After they finished, Alex declared.
''Let's go somewhere.''
He stood up as he gestured towards Artemia to take his hand. She slowly got up and placed her hand on his palm while maintaining her gaze with his eyes.
He pulled her towards the garden where they were surrounded by white roses, the flower she liked the most among all other flowers. They just stood there hand in hand, face to face without either of them uttering a word, the moon above their heads shone on them as if giving them her blessings.
As he gazed at the beautiful woman in front of him, he asked her, "You can be considered my fiancee but I haven't properly proposed yet, so I'll do it tonight. I want us to make this promise by marrying each other."
An exquisite ring with two pear-shaped blue diamonds placed on either side of a brilliant cushion-cut adamantine floated from above and hovered before Artemia's eyes against the backdrop of the full moon.
Seeing the artful and glimmering ring which gave off a subtle blue spark like her eyes, Artemia's eyes got transfixed on it.
Her lips partially opened with a dazed expression and held the hovering ring in between her fingers.
She slowly turned her gaze over to Alex with an overwhelmed expression and mumbled as her eyes became moist with happiness, "Are you seriously making a demand? Do you really want to marry me?"
She asked afraid that this was a dream, her heart would be shattered into million pieces if it was true.
''You are already my woman, the world knows that you and I are fiancees but I haven't done what a fiance should do, for our relationship to be called a proper one, so of course, I will do it because I'm a gentleman that knows what he wants and I couldn't live without so, better listen to my words carefully I, Alexander Kael Touch, ask Artemia Eretria Von Havens if she would be willing to marry me?"
Alex asked with a dazzling smile.
Artemia's lips arched into a beatific smile, her eyes turned misty as she nodded fervidly, "Yes!"
Although she had previously reserved a ring as proof of her engagement, this time it was different because it was preceded by a dinner under the stars, a declaration, and the ring, it was a true demand this time.
So obviously at the moment, she was feeling so euphoric that her heart couldn't stop itself from fluttering nonstop.
He saw her keenly looking at the ring and chuckled as he took it from her fingers.
Alex took her beautiful white left hand onto his palm and inserted the ring onto her ring finger, which perfectly fit her finger.
He continued, "And with this, we already promise to love, to protect, and cherish each other even if only the embers of our soul are left."
Feeling the cold and elegant ring decorated proudly around her finger, she felt a sense of bliss she never felt before, and understanding the meaning of having this ring; she already decided to hold on to it and protect it as if it was her life.
"For now, you will be my fiance because we can only officially marry after everything is settled." Alex said softly.
Artemia's expression, however, didn't change as this was more than enough for her. So, she simply nodded with a smile while appreciating the ring on her finger.
"Do you like it?" He asked with a dashing smile.
Artemia's gaze moved over to his starry black eyes and nodded with a besotted expression.
"I love it…"
Right after admitting to liking the ring, Artemia cupped Alex's face while intensely gazing into his eyes—" and I love you, Alexander." She declared.
''I love you too, Artemia Eretria Touch!'' Alex declared and the princess's body froze on the spot, she had anticipated this, although they hadn't gotten married, his words and what he gave her were more than enough, she didn't care about a wedding as now he had given her the best moment of her life.
''Let's make sure that our love, our love be everlasting.'' She decreed and even fate nodded, eager to see them accomplish this.
''Of course, our love will be everlasting, I will make sure to protect every one of you. I'm not perfect but with you all, in my life, I can become perfect, even if it's not like the world wants, I will be perfect in the eyes of my loved ones.''
Alex declared before the princess carry Artemia, it was time to continue their previous session and he was eager to see what surprise she had for him because he was sure that he went beyond her expectations and indeed he did.
