Zoleka laughed.
“She thought that he was only a Count, and it will be delightful for her when he takes her to Vienna to meet his family.”
“Of course it will, but I am not worried about them any longer. Find her a wedding gown and let them enjoy their ball. After that I want you all to myself.”
Zoleka smiled at him.
“That is what I want too.”
Her voice was almost a whisper as she added,
“I have prayed and prayed so often that some day I would find love – the real love that my father and mother had for each other. When you walked across the garden towards me, you answered all my prayers.”
“Did you think you would be able to marry me?”
Zoleka shook her head.
She knew the Prince was very moved by what she was saying.
He looked down into her beautiful blue eyes and sighed,
“I only wish that it was you and I who were being married tomorrow. But my precious, beautiful Goddess, I cannot wait very long.”
“We will arrange our wedding as soon as we go back to Papa. I know how pleased he will be as he admires you so much for all you have done for your country.”
“And I greatly admire him too,” he insisted. “So we must try hard not to make him feel too lonely because I have taken you away from him.”
“Only you could be so kind and understanding. Oh, Vaslov, I love you so much that it is very difficult to think of anything else.”
“I will tell you just how much I love you, my dear darling Zoleka, the night we are married.”
They looked into each other’s eyes.
They were both convinced in their hearts that they had been searching for each other through many lives and their love was so incredibly strong and unbreakable that it would last through many more lives yet to come.
For them this was the Love they had always sought.
It came from God, was part of God, and would be theirs for all Eternity.
