Esme's POV

"Will you do me the honours of marrying me and becoming my wife..?"

I'm shocked I'm speechless. I try to talk but I instead end up crying more.

"Esme?"

"Yes..." I nod my head several times pulling him up and hugging him as tightly as I can.

"Yes. I'll marry you" I said with so much emotion running through me.

"SHE SAID YES" Jaxon shouts across the room. I did not expect this at all!

The crowd erupts into a cheer and howls and laughter and soon the party is in full swing and I'm dancing with my Fiancé when I feel a tap on my shoulder. Finn is standing there waiting for me to hug him, I leap into his arms and he returns the hug and asks me if I would like to go for a walk.

"I'm just going to go for a walk with Finn. We won't be too long. I love you"

"Alright beautiful. Be careful and you make sure she's safe please Finley"

    Esme's POVI waited for a while for Jax to wake up. I paced his room I waited by his side of the bed, my nerves entangled in each other and I couldn't help but think that he will just reject me when he does wake up.Robyn told me to give it a go and to talk to him but she didn't exactly give me a time frame on how long I'd be waiting for. Night time fell and I was sort of asleep but I could feel him stirring in his sleep apologising for something. I couldn't make out what he said so I lay next to him in hopes that the mating bond will coat up all my fears and he would be fine as when I was struggling he was always able to calm me down even when I didn't want him to be near me but he calmed me over and over and now it was my turn to repay that favour back. I seemed to have forgotten that he also lost our baby and I never gave him time to get his thoughts or feelings across. After a while he started to wake up. I still laid next to him with one of my arms under my face and the other ho
