The Veilwood Haven

She smiled brightly "mmm...hot chocolate and peppermint!" She read the note and kissed him deeply.

Kalvath is shocked by the abrupt deep kiss and as she pulls away from the kids he whimpers softly and blushes really hard and is trying to say something but keeps on stuttering " I well uh uh that was ya know it made me quite aghhhhhh I want to say that I love you and that abrupt deep kiss really got me flustered but here I go" he grabs her face gently and kisses her softly yet with a deep passion that is radiating throughout his heart trying to use the kiss to truly show how much he absolutely believes she's his universe he pulls back from the kiss he iniated himself and is blushing even harder covering his face slightly with his right hand and his tail is wagging faster than ever before he can't speak so he uses magic to simulate a starry night sky on the ceiling of the carriage

When he pulls away she is blushing too. Her whole face beat red. Her tail is swaying happily. "I love you too"

His thought is god she is the most beautiful woman ever I can see all her beauty best under the moon light and it really gives her a godly glow that makes you fall even deeper in love with her and honestly I hope one day we can have a happy family together then turns to her looking longingly into her eyes brushes his hand down her arm to her hand and holds it like he can't let go "hey save me a couple of those strawberries love" and he grabs his hot cocoa and starts to drink it

They made it to the restaurant. "Ooh this place looks cute." SaraBella smiled and took Kals hand. "Let's go! I'm excited I dont think ive ever been here"

Kal lets her lead he's just happy to see her smiling again "okay okay it's not going anywhere haha" they get inside and see it's been reserved for only them the only other people are the chef the waiter and the owner who steps over and begins talking to Kal like they are close

SaraBella watches as he talks to the waiter. When the waiter leaves she looks at him. "Do you know our waiter?"

He looks at SaraBella and gives a knowing look "yes I know her and she the owner not the waiter and she is my cousin jetta she as you saw was a human and cow shifter and the only family I had left and since she just opened this is a family only dinner your included since we are dating plus I wanted you two to meet since I have a plan I'm working towards" has a determined look on his face as he grabs her hand to go to the table he pulls the chair out for SaraBella "here sit down snowbell I want you two to talk a bit while I go speak to the chef and setup your surprise"

SaraBella blushes. She felt stupid now...she had been jealous of the girl he was talking to... idiot...why were you jealous?...she was his cousin....so stupid... " she thought to herself. She began fidgeting with the hem of her sleeve.

He gets in close to her face and puts his hand on her cheek and says in the voice she likes "by the way I could tell you were jealous you have no need to be because you and only you are my girl" his eyes glow a bit while he looks into her eyes then he kisses her "now I'll talk to the chef my love I'll be right back you two talk but jetta no stories from when I was a kid please"

SaraBella was very embarrassed after he announced she was jealous. After he left there was silence for a bit. She was nervous, didnt really know what to say

Meanwhile a doe and a rabbit were happily together making a strawberry cake, Max stayed for the rest of the day too.
But they had a slight problem as the cake left the fire place, it was all nice and sweet and surely tasted very well. But there was only one lonely strawberry standing out on top of that baking.
But the trio had to laugh out loud, Max even had a few strawberry colored traces on his lips, not speaking about the smeared face of Elenore. Henry got the one or another strawberry to tats too.
In the end Lizbeth could only put just one single strawberry on the cake.

He is still talking to the chef about his surprise

Elenore was eating the frosting out of the bowl and attempting to feed her stuffed bear Henry some too. Henry was stained pink from strawberries and frosting. He was going to need a bath.

SaraBella still didnt know what to say. She blushed deeply at Jettas words. "Uh...thanks...I haven't dated anyone in a long time...but ...I really like him..." she said looking down at her hands as she picked at the skin around her nails.

He's explaining the very special surprise that he's planning he wants to make her a chocolate cake two layers high covered in vanilla frosting and crushed bits of peppermint candy canes with a small figure resembling her on top playing in the snowfields as a light snow fall happens and a figure of him closer to the edge of the cake just watching her with a gleam in his eye both figures were carved by him personally and this cake is depicting the first moment he ever saw her and fell for her immediately but he never got to see her again after that cause he was taken by humans

"A few months now I think..." she looked up at her. "What do you mean a deep meaning?...ya...he said he did see the future."

SaraBella smiles and blushes. "i...i love him too..."

He comes back pushing a cart with something on it he get in front of them and reveals his cake made out of red velvet with a subtle vanilla icing and crushed peppermint all over it and a little doll of sarabella on top that's playing in the snow and he looks at SaraBella and says "tap on your head and you'll see a show" she does that and it begins the magic covers the room and plays his memory of the day he first saw her she's making snow angels and he's hiding behind a tree reaching out like he's wanting to go talk to her and he gets kidnapped as they run off she looks back and sees nothing and goes back to playing while he get tied up and a heavy metal collar gets put on him and he gets sold as a slave he lives everyday for the next five year in pain by getting beaten for the fun of it and being starved just because they didn't care and after those harsh years his 18th master dies the collar falls off he runs to a city where he isn't known and steals some clothes gets a way into a school since he's 13 now and he sees someone bullying a little rabbit boy and he jumps in and helps they become fast friends and they spend everyday like that for three years then zyar and his family moved and he didnt see him for a long time after that since the one person he saw as a brother was now gone he finished school and left bouncing around towns and jobs but always being miserable cause everyone hated him cause he couldn't fully shift for four years he's now twenty two and has grown cold towards humans and most others due to their constant treatment towards him when he turns twenty three he runs into his brother again sees he got married and has a newborn child he walks up and says hey zyar been a while zyar has a shocked look on his face then gets super happy and runs and gives Kal a hug something Kal didn't get since he was five and he cried a bit and zyar says hey bro come meet my wife azira and our daughter elenore kal gets over to them bows to azira and says hello zyar says honey this is the wolfman I told you about the one I wanted to be elenore's uncle and God father azira looks him up and agrees she moves the cover over so Kal sees baby nori and he says hello lil nori your really cute and your parents are going to love you you know then he uses magic surprising everyone and he creates the magic teddy bear nori still carries with her now and he says I made that bear be able to store a message for nori to watch then they magically film and implant the message from before he stays with them for a year to help them with nori but he tells them goodbye and he loves them and hopes to see them again later on but he's gotta go where his heart is telling him he needs to go he steps out that door and sees their future and that they die he starts crying and hugs them for a long time before saying goodbye in a way that says forever he left thinking everyone was gonna die cause he only saw his brothers dead body laying near his wife and he gets into the forest then breaks down sobbing and holding his chest knowing he can't do anything to change the outcome he was a bit glad he told them to record a final message for nori tho and the next couple years were numb until he turned twenty eight and saw a little girl who needed help sensing his childhood crush nearby watching him like he did back then and he grew happy enough to use his magic again because he knew she could help him feel love again and it briefly shows them showing each other their homes and it ends with them both saying I love you in the carriage ride"

tears stream down her cheeks "Kal..i...im so sorry that happened to you...but...that day...i felt someone there...watching me...that was you?...." she wiped away her tears. "and...Elenore...you knew her parents?...im sorry what happened to them...that must have been hard not being able to stop it...but...couldnt you have told them what you saw?...." she looked down "im sorry...i-i shouldnt have said that...i dont mean to make it seem like it was your fault..." her voice cracked. "im ....im so sorry i couldnt...i should have...maybe if i saw you there when we were kids...maybe i could have done something...told someone...maybe i could have helped...." her heart broke. "i love you so much...i just wish you didnt have to endure that..." she said
