I woke after another dream of Galen and me and laid there wondering if he had the same dream. It was after the ceremony, and we were crowned King and Queen of Kaihu. After the festivities and celebrations of our union ceremony, we were shown to this huge beautiful room and several guards standing outside for our protection. The room was white with gold trim and a beautiful white marble fireplace with a golden mantle already lit and cozy looking. There was food and drink for us on a table and a large bed with gold covering. As I looked around I heard Galen's voice, “This is the Ceremonial room. As we are the chosen ones, we must consummate this marriage for our union to be complete, and the power of light to ignite.” He said coming up to me and turning me around and gently began kissing me. “I love you, my sweetness.” “I love you so much,” I whispered as he deepened the kiss, then lifted me and carried me to the bed gently placing me down and began kissing me again and more passionate

The next morning, I was surprised not to have had a dream. I wondered if Galen had one or not. I stretched my arms and yawned to wake up. Then I laid back down and began to think of last night and our date. I couldn’t believe what a great time I had. We drove through the country roads in the moonlight and found a quiet place to pull over and park. There was a lake in front of us, and the moon's light reflecting off the water was like a dream.I was so admiring the sight when Galen turned to me taking my hands in his, and before he spoke he was no longer as Porter but my Galen as he said. “I felt when I gave you that ring…” He touched the ring on my left hand and continued, “I had not properly asked you, and it was as Porter and not as myself. So, Rayana Lynnae Karver I love you forever and always will, will you do me the great honor of marrying me and being in my life forever?”I stared at him and all the love I felt for this wonderful man came flooding through me as I said, “Yes, wit

The following day, I felt as if I was glowing. The date had been chosen, and the place where, is picked out, now we can plan our ceremony. The council was quite upset about being overridden, but the two Queens and King spoke, and their voice is the law. Galen and I knew we could hold off until that special night. It will be difficult, but at least it is no longer a month away. And as long as we keep this a secret there can be no threat to come. I discussed it with Galen, and he said I could invite one outsider to witness and that is to be Sara. His parents, the Westons my mother, Sara, and the Minister of Cainya will be the only ones to witness the ceremony and Coronation of our crowing as King and Queen of Kaihu. Oh, and there will be a camera all set up to record it all to play later for the worlds.I turned and saw my gift on the nightstand… Just like clockwork. I smiled and picked it up and read the card.On the Sixth Day of Christmas, My True Love gave to Me!Our hearts and Minds

I opened my eyes, and they hurt. My throat still ached. As my eyes slowly focused, I realized I was in my room. I tried to sit up, and my head hurt badly.“Honey?” Galen said next to me. “Here.” he tried to help me sit and give me a drink of water. It hurt too bad going down.“Wha…” I couldn’t speak.“Shush. I will explain.”I put my hand on my head it hurt badly. Galen gently laid me back down and he himself lay on top of the covers next to me.“First off,” He began. “I want to thank you for being able to give us the lead we needed to find you. It was my father’s spy who was able to locate the exact location where they had you. After you got quiet, we knew we had to find you soon. I tried for days to contact you.”I stiffened. ‘Days?’He looked down at me. “Yeah days.”Good, the connection was still open. ‘What happened?’“They gassed the room you were in. It wasn’t to kill you, just to keep you sleeping. Only the amount could have killed you eventually. I was concerned when you woul

We got to the stables having to fight a few more along the way, and Galen hurriedly saddled and ready our tayrens, and we climbed aboard and took to flight.Galen wanted to see from the air what was happening and hoped to find his father on the ground somewhere. The damage is bad in the distance we could see the darkness beginning to poison the lands and begin to spread. This beautiful world is being destroyed.‘I wonder if Valaisha is being poisoned too?’ I thought to Galen.‘That is a strong possibility. The darkness had gained more strength since we were married and away.’I looked at him, ‘Was it wise that we were away that long?’He looked back at me. ‘No, we needed that time to gain our strength for this battle. You have to admit you feel stronger, right?’‘Yes, I do and even stronger by your side.’ I said.‘Then there’s your answer.’I smiled at him as we flew closer to the poisoned darkness.‘Cainya is the first we save.’ Galen said, and I nodded.As we flew closer to the dark
