"I... concur..." Arlia was too busy being in cloud nine to even pay heed to her body's desperate need for oxygen. If kissing him could bring so much joy to her despite feeling as if she was being lit alive, she'd happily go through it again. "Nigel, I personally swear upon my own blood that this love of mine is only for you and you alone. You, who bothered to take the time to see me without my mask, are the only man I know whom I truly desire, physically and emotionally. If anyone is telling you otherwise, know that they are nothing more but liars," she said with a smile full of joy and longing.
