"I cannot, and I will keep you from doing so," he whispered, and then kissed her.

Susanna kissed him back tenderly at first then deepened the kiss.
((Does anyone know what happened to Ani? My friend is like...OMG! IS ANI ON?!?!?!!? and I'm just...no...-_-'))

Alexander held her close and kissed her fiercely.
"I love you," he whispered against her lips, "and I will not let you go to him."

Susanna was shocked at his unexpected confession. "Alex..." She gently pulled away and whispered, "You're committed to another..."

He stroked her hair.
"I am not in love with you," he said gently. "You must know that."
"But neither will I let you give yourself to a man who loves you not at all."
He stared down at her, meeting her eyes.
"Marry me."

((I KNOW!))
Susanna stared at him. "You would rather have me agree to a loveless marriage?" Anger was boiling inside of her again. "Am I some object that you can give away or keep at your will?" she shouted.

((I hate you all. He's desperate to save her from this, okay? And to him, this is NORMAL.))
Alexander gripped her hands to keep her still.
"It would not be a loveless marriage, and it would be far better than a man who would strike at you or use you whenever the mood struck him!" he thundered, staring at her.
"You are no object, but I swear, Susanna, I will keep you safe by any means necessary!"

((I know~ And she kinda loves him for it...well...not now but...she will! XD))
Susanna didn't break eye contact with him..."I'll take my chances. None of it's true anyway." Tears welled in her eyes once again and she pulled her hands away from him and made her way down the stairs.

Alexander swore violently, but didn't go after her. Instead, he bent his head and laid his head upon Apollo's knee.
"Brother," he whispered, "where have I gone wrong?"
"I wanted only to love her."
