"I don't doubt you believe it at all. It is still a bold claim to make. We will just have to see about that." He says with a smirk at the vampire. There was a whole world of perversion out there and pain is not the only reason one might object to a kink. He doubted he could break the man's pain tolerence with anything short of permanent damage or amputation.<br/><br/>Gabe found his wording strange and it quite quickly occured to him that the man wasn't thinking of marriage as an option. Wanting to probe that a little bit, he lays out his cards in a more plain and simple fashion. "There is nothing to figure out Drake. It's simple, I cannot have premarital sex." He grasps the vampire's chin and looks deep into his eyes. "I 'm not saying now, or anytime soon, but when we both feel we are ready I would have us wed. I want you, my soulmate, to be my husband as well. Then I will fuck you ever loving brains out. Understand?" He says in a gentle, but serious tone.<br/><br/>~°=°~<br/><br/>"I promised to keep him safe and I did a shoddy job. I am glad he is uninjured but it was the best I could manage. We can only be grateful for the outcome." Michael says. He was not happy that Ryan had been involved either, not at all. "Let's go." He says and he turns to seek Abbaddon out.<br/><br/>He shakes his head when he walks in and Abbaddon is cooking breakfast with Reake. The two of them habe made quite the spread. "Ab, we need to talk. How are your wings?" He asks.<br/><br/>Abbaddon turned around and walked over toward Michael while Reake looked on with concern. Ab pulls out his wings and they look just fine, perfectly normal. "It's good Michael. I didn't fall." He says.<br/><br/>"How?" Michael asks.<br/><br/>"I dunno. I should have right? I refused orders. I guess... I just knew they were wrong. I<i>believed</i>they were wrong against all evidence. Father would want me to keep my soulmate safe and I knew that, nothing else mattered. Kane is my soulmate and I love him and need to keep him safe." Abbaddon says without abhint of doubt.<br/><br/>"So... you weren't... defying Father. You simply... believed?" Michael says, sounding dumbfounded.<br/><br/>"Why not? Isn't that what we ask of the humans? Believe? Have faith?" He challenges.<br/><br/>"I... I suppose it is." The arch angel says quietly.
