She tipped her head and she smiled at him. A look of disgust crossed his face and she giggled, knowing he'd figured it out."Oh, that is disgusting, why did you have to tell me that?" He grimaced."Technically, I didn't, I only smiled at you, you're the one that put two and two together. Besides, I think this is Leah's payback, you're forgetting she can hear your every thought when you're in your wolf from, which means not only does she have to listen to the teasing of the pack, if your mind suddenly drifts to me, she'll get glimpses of us together," she shrugged. "At least it was me that walked in on them and not you. Be happy for them, you've seen as well as I that they like each other, and maybe this will be a long term thing, just think, she won't be moping about Sam anymore, he'll be gone from her mind and she'll be ha ppy."His face did soften at her words but the grimace on his face remained and she laughed."Well, my brother and your sister are otherwise occupied," she started and he sent her a mock glare. She smiled in response. "That means we won't be seeing them for dinner, and we probably won't be seeing them until the morning when we leave. You know what that means?""What?" He frowned in confusion."It means, My Wolf, that for the first time since we arrived, we have the place to ourselves."He perked up, all thoughts of their siblings leaving his mind."Oh?" He questioned, pinning her with a heated gaze as his eyes swept her body, encased in the lilac sundress she wore."Yes, I can finally complete my experiment on the new protection necklaces for the pack," she said excitedly, and she turned and left the kitchen, heading straight to the bedroom, giggling as she left behind a furiously blinking shape-shifter.As she entered the bedroom, she gave a squeal of laughter when she found herself suddenly falling forwards. She landed on the bed and a heavyweight loomed over her."That's wasn't nice, Hermione," Seth growled playfully, pinning her to the bed with his body weight.She smiled up at him, lifting her arms to wrap around his neck."I couldn't resist, you should've seen the look on your face," she laughed lightly.He pouted and she snorted at him, lifting a hand to his mouth and tracing it with the pad of her index finger. He kissed her finger lightly and she smiled at him. The look he gave her, she knew what it was he wanted and without thought, she sent her emotions over to him and he sighed as her love for him settled inside him, filling his chest with warmth and comfort."I have something for you," Seth told her, staring into her eyes and breaking the silence."Hmm?" She hummed questioningly.He shifted off her, moving over to the other side of the room and to his duffle bag, of which, Hermione had placed an Undetectable Extension Charm on. He rooted around in the contents of the bag before pulling out a small black velvet box and walking back over to the bed, sitting down beside Hermione, holding the small box out to her."What is it?" She asked him."Open it," he encouraged.She frowned but turned her attention to the box in her hand and she lifted the lid, her eyes widening before they shot up to Seth, who was smiling at her softly."I... I don't understand," she said."My mom found out about your wish to someday marry me, Jacob opened his big mouth.""That explains so much," Hermione nodded. "Your mum's always kind and caring towards me, but lately it's been... Frightening."He snorted. "It'll get worse," he warned and her mouth twitched. "Anyway, she found out and she demanded we go engagement ring shopping." She stopped breathing and her eyes widened comically, falling down to the box in her hand and back up to him. "Have you ever tried to say no to my mom? It doesn't go over well," he chuckled. "So, she forced me to at least look around for future reference, even if I wasn't actually going to purchase anything. Calm down, take a breath and relax," he told her, seeing that she was on the verge of hyperventilating. When she did, he continued speaking. "She was disappointed that I decided against getting you an engagement ring," he saw her entire body relax and he chuckled. "But, I got you something else instead." He gestured to the box and she looked at it again, this time closely.It was a simple silver band, the metal morphing into the shape of a love heart in the centre of it. There were no gemstones, no sparkles and no patterns. It was simple but that's what she loved about it. It somewhat reminded her of her relationship with Seth. Nothing about it was complicated. She loved him and he loved her. It was simple and true. She lifted the box up to her eye line and she spied that inside the band was Seth's name that had been carved into it. Her eyes moved back to his."It's a promise ring," he told her softly. "It's a promise that I'll love you, I'll care for you and I'll support you. I'll be there for you
