“Of course” said Rochelle.
“This time, not as a guest, but as my wife”.
He went down on one knee and took out a small velvet box. He opened it. Inside, the diamonds of the ring blushed the colour of the sky.
“Rochelle, would you marry me?”
“Oh Xavier”, she squealed, “Yes!”
Xavier slipped the ring onto her finger. It was refreshingly cool against her skin.
He stood up and kissed her.
They walked back along the path together. Rochelle felt as though she was glowing. The future held so much promise for them as the next Duke and Duchess of Wyvern.

Knight-in-Arms Series
Part One: Secrets
A mysterious, handsome, and rich white stranger holds several secrets and there’s one in particular he’s determined to keep: he’s a shifter who eats humans.
In an attempt to keep a low profile, he finds himself in the quiet English town of Lower Ferton, where a chance encounter introduces him to his beautiful, black, inquisitive and adventure-seeking neighbour, Rochelle. Unable to resist her charm, he finds himself starting to fall for her.
The inward battle to suppress his monster side and keep her safe leaves him fighting to cling to his humanity, but when Rochelle comes to visit unexpectedly, will he find this is a battle he’s about to lose?
Part Two: Trust
When Rochelle wakes up in Xavier’s mansion and finds out the truth about what he is and what he did to her, she is shocked and disgusted. Despite his apologies, she’ll never trust him again, and never forgive him.
However, forced to see him nearly every day, she realises she is still attracted to him and that their situation is not so clear-cut, especially when certain events throw her life in danger, and she finds she has to trust him to survive.
But how can she trust a man who tried to kill her once and is unable to stop himself doing so again?
Part Three: Demons
When Xavier takes Rochelle to Italy for her birthday, it promises to be the perfect holiday – for Rochelle at least. Xavier, on the other hand, finds himself plagued by demons, past and present, as he tries to suppress his deepest and darkest desires.
But when Rochelle gets caught up with Xavier’s demons, can he summon the strength to face them and protect her, or will his beastly nature take over and attack her instead?
