    "You are mine now Amber Manzini, you are my woman and the Lady Boss of the Phantom, We will make an official announcement to your family tomorrow," Harry said as soon as he ends the kiss. Amber smiled and nods her head and the song "Finally Found Someone" by Bryan Adams and Barbara Streisand was heard as the couple embrace each other and watch the fireworks.??


    Amber: "Harry, thank you for loving me without restrictions, for trusting me even though you already know my background. For loving me without fear, wanting me without demand, and accepting me for who I am."


    Harry: "Silly girl, It is me who is supposed to thank you. Thank you for giving me a chance to love you, you are a royal….a precious gem at the City of Wise."


    Amber laughs as she heard the words "precious gem" as they hug each other when the fireworks are already done Harry informed the Captain of the yacht that they have to go back. "We have to go back now, your family still have a Christmas Family Feast tomorrow. You need to take a rest my pumpkin" Harry told her.


    "Hmm, Harry, you have to attend the family feast with your parents. Since we are now in a relationship, I think it is proper for your parents to meet me" Amber informed him bashfully. "Yes My Pumpkin, my men are already informed my parents about it and they will be at the Villa 8 tomorrow. But don''t be scared of them if they ask you if we already consummated our relationship. My mom always pesters me about having a grandchild, I hope the twins'' will entertain them tomorrow" Harry replied to her as he guides her to the couch so that she will not feel dizzy to their journey.

    Marco and Jessica; Mystic Garden Secret Garden)


    Every girl deserves a gut that can make her heart forget that it was ever broken. ----curiano.com


    Marco and Jessica went to a secluded area of the Mystic Hotel, he asks the help of Cassandra Wu for this because he wants it to be romantic. Even though Cassie cursed him so much for the abrupt request she still helps him for he was Luna''s Knight and friend. Cassie prepared the area full of Pink Stargazer lilies and roses, this secluded area was a secret garden which the Wu triplets and Luna built when they are still in their teens. There are lanterns around that gives a romantic ambiance to them, Marco ushered Jessica in one of the benches at the center of the garden that has a guitar resting on the tea table. As they sat on the benches Marco took the guitar from the table and gave Jessica his devilish smile that all girls die to see on him. Then suddenly….


    Marco: "Jessica, I wanna be the one…your ex will hate, your parents will love, and the one you''ll never forget and the one you''ll spend your lifetime with…. Will you become my fiancée?"


    Jessica was surprised by Marco''s revelation to her. "Why me?"


    Marco smiled as he strums the guitar, "Listen to my song Sweetheart, then you will get your answer." As Marco strum the guitar, he sang the song of a Filipina artist Julie Ann San Jose''s "I''ll Be There".


    "First time I laid my eyes on someone like you


    I can''t forget the hour, that moment with you


    Then I have realized, love''s growing deep inside


    I feel the beating of my heart"


    Then Marco looks at Jessica''s face as she listens to the song he was playing, he asks for Luna''s blessing if he could court her best friend. At first, Luna was hesitant to give it to him, Marco knows that Luna trusts him but she was afraid that Jessica will get hurt again as Luna told him Jessica has suffered from her past relationship and she had broken wings because of what her ex-fiancée has done to her.


    "Cause every day, every night, I keep looking up the skies


    And I pray that someday you will wake up in my arms


    And love will never end


    We belong together, always and forever


    Call my name and I''ll be there"


    Each lyric of the song, he gave emphasis and meaning, he wants her to know that he will do everything for her and he will not hurt her. For Marco, Love is the emblem of eternity; it confounds all notion of time; effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end. And all of his thought about love, he is willing to offer it to Jessica.


    "Spending my days and nights just thinkin'' of you


    How you make me wanna smile with the things that you do


    When will I hear you say, love''s coming on your way


    And that you start to feel the same"


    As he ended the song, Jessica''s face was stained with tears, she can''t utter a word for she was very overwhelmed. Marco holds her hand and looks directly to her eyes, then he wipes off the tears from her face with his thumb.


    Marco: "Don''t cry, Sweetheart. I hate to see you crying. If they will see you crying they will think that I am bullying you especially the twins'' they will think that I hurt you and they will going to torture me."


    Jessica let out a chuckle, "I can''t help it. I am sorry for this act."


    Marco: "I want to court you, Jessica, I want to properly court you the way a man supposed to do. I want us to get to know more and I want us to form a relationship that is bonded by friendship then lovers, then-fiancée and the last one are being a husband and wife."


    Jessica: "No Marco, I am known as the bride left in the altar. I have a broken heart. I am afraid to love and trust again."


    Marco: "I don''t care about your past. What is important will be the future…our future. I will fix your broken heart and I will teach you to love and trust again. It may take time but I am willing to wait, Luna has already told me about your past, she trusted me to you. My parents like you, Amber likes you and the twins adore you. And I am beginning to fall in love with you even though we have just met a couple of weeks, for me, I have this feeling that I need to protect you just the way I protected Luna and the twins."


    Jessica: "My sisters like you also, my parents are already giving their blessings for us to become your wives."


    Marco: "Then are you willing to become my fiancée?"


    Jessica raised her right eyebrows, "Are we not going to be friends first? You have just said that we can take it slow?" Marco laugh out loud, he shook his head, "Didn''t you have just said that your parents already gave their blessings to us to become your husband? I know that Xavier and Alexei are doing something to your sister right now" Marco replied to her.


    Jessica just sigh, "Are you willing to teach me not to be afraid anymore?"


    Marco: "I will not only teach you, my sweetheart. I will take you out of the hard shell that you have built to become the barrier to your fragile heart. If I need to hunt and kill that jerk who has caused you pain I will do it. The Knights and the twins are willing to torture them."


    Jessica smacked him on his shoulder, "Ouch Sweetheart! I didn''t know that you are that strong!" Marco teases her, then he embraces her tightly. "My Sweetheart, I know that you are not believing in the word PROMISE but I want to tell you that I am willing to prove to you that my intentions to you are true and pure." Jessica hugs him back.


    Jessica: "Marco, I think we need to head back inside the venue, my sisters knew that we are here alone at the secret garden, I know them well. They might think that we are doing something that my parents want us to do just to give them little bunnies to play with."


    Marco smiled, "Okay My Sweetheart, but if you want we can comply with their wishes. I am going to marry you anyway" he teases her more.


    Jessica smacks his shoulder again but she had a smile on her face. "Luna will be delighted if she will know that I accept you as my boyfriend" Jessica suddenly blurted out but she was caught by Marco by holding her hands. "You can''t take it back Sweetheart, we are now lovers and not just a friend. You are my woman and I am your man. And we will make it official tomorrow at the family feast, I will mark you by giving you the family ring tomorrow" Marco happily speaks up.
