Two lovers walked up the steps leading to the gallows. They stayed as close as possible, holding each other's hand as well as the shackles hanging off their wrists would allow. Their heads were held high, looking defiantly out over the crowd that gathered.

"Prince, you are accused of adultery and treason against His Majesty, High King. Do you have anything to say?" The executioner bellowed, more for the crowds benefit than a chance for the prisoner's redemption.

The man stayed silent, neither defending nor arguing against his alleged actions. The crowd jeered.

"Commoner, you are accused of adultery and treason against His Majesty, High King. Do you have anything to say?" The executioner repeated his words.

Then woman followed her partner's example, staying silent. The crowed jeered louder.

"Then, by order of the High King, I hereby sentence you to death by hanging," the executioner said grimly.

The couple were forced apart to their separate nooses. The rope was fitted around their necks, checked over to make sure it didn't break.

The pair turned to one another, staring into the other's eyes.

"I love you, Bella," the man whispered, just loud enough for the woman to hear.

"I love you too, Edward. Until the end of time," the woman whispered back.

The executioner pulled the lever, and the couple swung.
