Rose felt his hand and looked at it when she felt it to be warmer. She then faced forward again, and when they reached the end of the hall, she looked at him. [i]He is so quiet.. Why is that?[/i] she thought to herself. She then looked at the ceremony master which started to talk.

Rose looked at the man as he did his speech about marriage and the holy bond between a man and women after they promised to care for each other until death parts them again. She then looked up at Vlad, was she really going to do this? Did she have too? Yes she did, she had no choice, but she was planning on making herself very happy.

Then the moment came for them to say that they would agree to everything the man just had said.

[i]Young Mistress Rosalinda, will you have this man to be your husband; to live together with him in the covenant of marriage? Will you love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, be faithful unto him for the rest of your immortal life?[/i]

Rose looked at Vlad and nodded. ''Yes, I do'' she answered.

Then the ceremony master turned to Vlad. 

[i]Young Lord Vlad Tepes the seventh, will you have this woman to be your wife; to live together with her in the covenant of marriage? Will you love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, be faithful unto her for the rest of your immortal life?[/i]
