Aven paused as she cupped his face, and melt, his heart certainly did. The worry drained away, and he relaxes into a smile.
When should they get married? He was unsure about the question himself, though he'd originally planned to set the date after the war had ended, as he hadn't been quite sure whether he would survive the plan he had in place to overthrow Calent. With recent events, however, he'd come to understand that his first priority was not his plan, but Hakon, as selfish as the idea would have sounded to his former self not a year ago. Not only that, but in actuality, as they'd been... experimenting, he couldn't be positive if she ever became pregnant. He couldn't have her suffer the disgrace of a pregnancy out of wedlock.
Aven gazed lovingly into Hakon's eyes, pulling her tight to his chest. "I think we should be married as soon as possible. Maybe I'm not confident in my prospects as a father, but there's nothing in this world that would make me rescind my desire to be with you for the rest of my life. So... why wait?"
