Kaelos' POV
*****
"You... Proposed?" Marcellus asked me with widened eyes when I told him in my office.
We'd been reviewing plans for the blood moon festival coming up in three days and I couldn't help but blurt it out to him. He's my best man, after all.
"You seem surprised." I grinned, pouring myself a glass of whiskey before taking a sip. I poured Marcellus a glass as well, handing it over to him. "I feel like we've gotten to that point in our relationship where... All I can imagine is life with her."
Marcellus chuckled with what sounded like genuine amusement. "You think? Kaelos, it's painstakingly obvious that you're head over heels. I could say you've been that way for months. As early as when she escaped to the woods, actually."
I rolled my eyes while he continued laughing, staring briefly at his glass of whiskey before he took a sip.
Oh, right... He's more of a vodka guy.
