He shook his head. He wasn't ready to give it up that easily. " You still fail to understand. Yes I blame her for what I have lost. But that doesn't guide my actions now. Let her bring peace, should she bring peace I would follow. I will follow you if it brought peace. But something sets me off about the young acid lord. I will not make war with anyone. I'm too tired of it. I love you too much to fight anymore. I wish you could understand this. But please Willow, think hard on what I have asked of you. And....should you still decline that and something happens to me and my son, make sure Rose is safe. You are the only other person I can trust with her safety as she grows. "
He stood and slowly walked to the door. He was broken, and it showed clearly. Torn between the duties of a father, a king, and a man in love. And loosing at every turn had broken much of what was left of his defenses. He opened the door and before leaving spoke again. " I wish you to be my bride, my queen and mother to my daughter. Do not think of your answer with your political points in mind but with your heart. I do love you and will not fight you no matter what may come. When you have an answer, come visit me, or summon me to you. " With that he stepped out and left. Returning to his own room he made arrangements for a quick ride back to his own home come the morning.

In the morning Rose was up before the sun which wasn’t unusual for a child her age. She crawled over to Novakon and nudged him, “Daddy… daddy look what came” She said having a envelope in her hands that simply had the words “Novakon” Written on the front. No one other then Willow called Novakon by his first name and it was written in her beautiful fancy handwriting. Inside the letter Novakon found what Willow had left him and it read as follows:
My Dearest Novakon,
I’ve decided to write you this letter then speaking to you this morning. We would only further argue and make it harder for us to part ways. I’ve thought a good deal about what was said last night and I find no matter what I do I a always thinking about the political aspect of our relationship. We never formally courted and even though it would over joy me more than anything to become your bride I feel that how we feel about the Divine, and how you feel about what you think Lord Acid is doing is what is pulling us apart. The rest of the lords and I agree he’s looking out for the best interests of the planet and you and I may never come to agree with what needs and should be done for the good of us all. I will be leaving late morning to return to the Lightning Domain where I must court and wed a man of my own domain. It breaks my heart to do this when I have come to love you and Rose so deeply, and see Rose as if she were my own. Unless you can prove to me why not to do this then I am sure I will not see you again before you leave for the Fire Domain, and wish you and little rose the short amount of happiness you will have while you can.
Forever thinking of you,
Willow Isura-Drake

He woke to his daughters gentle nudging. He smiled seeing her and laughed softly knowing she wasn't always awake this early. He pulled her into a hug and a kiss to her cheek. " Good morning my little one. Sleep well? " He looked at the letter she handed him and his heart fell. This wasn't going to be good. He sat up and looked to Rose. " Why don't you order us some breakfast before we head out? " When she jumped from the bed and ran into another room to order he read the letter. His heart nearly split in half as he read it. Folding the letter he put it away and dressed. He couldn't let this happen, not now not ever.
He smiled as he poked his head into the other room. Spoke with rose a moment about going to see if he could get Willow to join them and then with the guards watching her again he left and headed for her room. It was still early so he would be in time to catch her And by the divine was his mind and heart raceing with what he was thinking. Reaching her room he knocked and then entered the room. Formality out of the way he was going to throw it all out just for this one last chance.

Rose was rather up beat in the morning but was more interested in getting waffles smothered in berries to care to much about what was in the letter. She noticed him stepping out for a moment as she blinked, “..Daddy?” She asked softly though he didn’t really hear her because he was in a rush. Willow was still in bed when he came burst into her room. She was dressed down into only a think white night gown and the curtains where all closed in her room, the sound of him as her eyes open as she sat up startled as she held the blankets to her chest lightly and tried to figure out why he had just suddenly came rushing into her room first thing in the morning.

He was surprised the gaurds weren't there. But he had taken the short moment to knock before entering her room. His heart pounded in his ears and his throat had tightened. He closed the door behind him and walked over beside the bed and here he knelt down so that he looked up into her eyes. This...was going to be the hardest thing for him to do. " Willow....it pains me to think you can not see past politics and see only with your heart. If it means loosing you then the hell with it all. I don't beleive in the divine because my heart has yet to fully heal. I do not trust Oberon but I will remain in this allience. To loose you would shatter whats left of a still mending heart. I may not like the way things are but if peace through an alliance with the acids is possible and it gives me the chance to be the man you wish to have then so be it. I'll stay but you know how I feel about it. But know that my family, my daughters future and saftey and happiness comes before anything this alliance brings. I'm begging you....please reconsider what you are going to do. I can't be a father or a king without a heart and you have taken that. "
His eyes had the shine of tears flowing down from the corners. Something she had never seen him do. And from what she had learned of him, he had never begged for anything. Her letter had done more than she probably had intended it to do.

Willow gasped when he suddenly moved over to the side of her bed and knelt down and she wasn’t at all decent, her hand clutched the sheet tighter, “Novakon! This is very inappropriate” She said as he started to speak to her and speak quickly. His words brought redness to her cheeks, his words of unconditional love had left her speechless and then to see him cry on top of it. “…Oh…. Oh Novakon” she said reaching out and took hold of his hand and pulled it forward to get him to sit beside her on the bed. She put her right hand on the side of his cheek before leaning in and closing her eyes before placing her lips on his in a soft kiss.

When she took his hand she felt the trembling in them. She had scared him and scared him good. For one of strength he had a weak heart and was easily broken. At her soft pull he moved and sat beside her. He didn't care if it was appropriate or not for what he done. He needed to tell her what he felt, what she meant to him. He looked into her eyes, her face and felt the warmth of her hand against his. And then when her right hand caressed his cheek he leaned into that hand, and then she leaned in and kissed him. His breath caught in his chest at the feel of those soft lips and just for a moment he hesitated, but only a moment. He returned her kiss, slowly, lovingly and deeply as he gently let his arms move out and encircle her, pulling her close.

Willow felt him hesitate at first but get past it quickly as he slipped an arm around her and she felt herself slide slight over the sheet as he pulled her in close to him. She didn’t break her kiss but start another one with him, her free hand loosened on the sheet she had been holding against her and let it come to rest on his shoulder where his shoulder met his chest. She had neer seen him like that before and the whole night had been torture thinking about what she had written in that letter, and everything she thought about while laying in bed alone and awake. She didn’t expect him to just let himself in and say those romantic words to her.

He enjoyed the feel of her body in his arms. The feel and taste of her lips coursed through his mind. He continued the kiss, slowly makeing it more passioate as his hands caressed her y, his arms keeping her close to his own. He loved her so much and he couldn't bare to loose her. But slowly he broke the kiss off, not wanting to do so. He looked into her eyes and smiled softly.
" Willow I . urt me and become my bride. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you in my life. " His heart still pounded in his chest, his body still trembled with anxious fear and hope. But by the divine her lips, her warmth was something he needed to have. A sweet bliss that had long been forgotten and missed by him.

Willow smiled when their lips parted and she opened her eyes as she looked up at him. He said he wanted her to become his bride and after how romantic he had just been there was no way she could refuse. “…Yes Novakon… I’ll marry you” She said softly as she nuzzled him gently before leaning in quickly to kiss him again. She just wanted to feel him there beside her as she leaned against him, putting aside the fact her night gown was revealing and not much to it, and she was usually very shy about what she was seen in. She kept her hand on his cheek as she kissed him again, her excitement about being a bride was on her mind.

He smiled and sighed with releif at her words. He held her even closer and returned her kiss happily. Deeply lovingly and passionately. He wanted nothing more than to have her and to bring her into his life completely. and he would do anything and everything it took to do so. His hands felt the thin nightgown and he just now did realize just how little she was wearing. His face redened just alittle before he broke their kiss, after a few more ing moments. " join us for breakfast? "

She gasped slightly against his kiss when his hands touched her nightgown and he broke their kiss to speak. She could see his face had turned red and when his did, so did hers. He had asked her to come to breakfast with him and even though it was early she nodded, “Alright… I’ll go to breakfast with you… Novakon are you still leaving this morning?” She asked as she lifted the sheet to her chest again. “Give me some time to dress myself… you shouldn’t see me like this yet” She said as she blushed brightly.

He smiled softly as she accepted his invitation. With a soft laugh at what she said he nods. " I know. I'm sorry I just came on in but I couldn't stand the thought of loosing you. I'll wait outside for you. Rose should have everything ordered by now. I let her order us a good breakfast. As far as leaving....I don't know now. You have given me a reason to stay longer. " He placed a soft kiss to her lips and then stood and walked out of her room to allow her to dress.

Willow looked at Novakon as she blushed bashfully from what he said to her and placed another light kiss on her lips before he left so she could dress. She didn’t realize how early in the morning it was or how little sleep she had gotten that night because she had been so upset. She slipped out of bed and pulled on a beautiful dress that what white and had a pink like corset top. She brushed out her long golden hair and then tied some of it back with a pink ribbon. Pink suited her because she had such golden colored hair. She eventually stepped out into the hall and saw Novakon waiting for her as she blushed again and put her hands against her dress in front of her.

He waited with his hands clasped behind his back. Standing still and looking up and down the halls. Where her gaurds where he didn't know. And that was very odd to see. He breathed in and out lightly and then turned when she came out. He smiled warmly seeing her blush and then the dress she wore. He offered his arm to her with a warm smile." You look beautiful. "
