Chapter 37：Epilogue. (2/2)

Before I could continue to freak out, even more, a hand touches my elbow and spins me around.

A voice that belongs to a female, screams at me to 'QUIT IT!' and to 'CALM THE FUCK DOWN!'

If I was under some kind of spell or trance, I wonder if it may have been enough to snap me out of it due to how piercing it is.

I am about to scratch my head out of frustration until a hand shoots out and grabs my wrist.

My attention finally lands on this intrusive being and I finally notice that it's none other than my sister Illana.

Deep creases form lines around her brows and if I look closely enough, there may even be a vein popping out the side of her forehead.

She finally calms down and breathes out deeply. ”My big, lovable, beautiful, dumb, idiotic, stressed-out sister...” Her voice trails off as she stares straight into my eyes.

Hey! Why did it start out good and then it's suddenly turned into insults?!

”I know you're probably stressed out because you've already been married once. And hey, with a great catch like Jett Harland, who WOULDN'T worry?” My beloved sister smirks at me as she continues. ”... But seriously though, you're DUMB for even worrying about anything! After everything you've been through, do you really think it'd be THAT easy for you to get rid of him?!”

... Well... I guess if she says it that way... I guess not.

”Hmph. Looks like you've finally come around to your senses.” She steps back and looks all over me as she holds onto my shoulders.

”Your face is finally free of those ugly dips, crevices, and valleys. Some were so deep that maybe an animal might have built a nest on it.” Lana laughs hysterically at her own awful, or even more accurately, lame-ass joke.

As always, I only react with an unimpressed stare every single time she does this.

It's not until a few moments after that I notice her being unusually quiet.

Her head is bent down a little. I realize right after that she's been holding it in. I sigh and try to hug my sister, but she raises a hand up to stop me.

”I-It's okay. I'll be fine. I-I'm just being a little emotional. It's all good.” She sniffs and looks up at me with slightly wet eyes.

Feeling concerned, I reach out to her, ”Lana...”

”No! I don't want to ruin your dress. Ju-Just... promise me something...”, Lana says with her slightly quivering voice.

I nod.

”... You better not move away from here anymore, alright?! You better not!”

I nod again, smile and tell her 'I won't. I promise.'

I guess that seals the deal as she runs out the door. Probably to cry in a more controlled space and fix her make-up right after.

Oh, my dear, sweet, sweet sister - I don't know what to do with her sometimes.

As if taking her place, my brother Ethran and parents come in to see how I am and perhaps talk to me before my dad walks me down the aisle for the second time in my life.

...

In slow movements, my arms are linked with my father's and we are slowly waking our way down the dark red carpet.

Gorgeous planters, floral arrangements, ribbons, and other elegant items decorate the ends of each pew.

I look straight at the groom that is waiting for me at the end of this path.

The pinnacle moments of a wedding ceremony for me is not the kiss, but the look on the groom's face as he sees his bride makes her way towards him down the beautifully adorned aisle.

I've already instructed the photographer to take as many pictures as they can of this moment so I may treasure it for life.

It's so as I grow older, I'll be able to see my wonderful other half's smiling face even when my memory starts to fail me.

I'm sure, even then, I'll be able to say 'Ah... that man, really and truly loves this woman.'

My mind floats back to the present, and I smile back in return as I anticipate being wed to the man of my dreams.

[FLASHBACK END]

I blush and sigh happily as I finish reminiscing about that day. It was wonderful and one of the best days of my life.

After the wedding, we were too tired to do anything. So after changing and getting ready for bed, we talked about our day, laughed a lot and cuddled each other until we eventually fell asleep.

It was perfect.

I cross my arms on the desk and rest my head for a little bit. I want a bit of a break before I start my work again.

I've already sent Jett a text earlier saying that I'll be working late tonight and he can go on ahead home.

A sigh escapes my lips and I feel pretty lonely. We're going to be really busy so I'm really missing him at the moment.

I turn my office chair around and glance out the huge window in my office that overlooks the city.

Many lights of different colors illuminate the night scene before me.

There's an event happening in the city soon, so they've put up special decorations that make everything look a lot more special compared to most days.

It makes the area look more lively, romantic and yet calming than usual.

A soft rap from behind me makes me spin around on my chair as I look towards the door. I tell them to come in.

Half-way, I could see that it's the very person I've been thinking about this entire time.

My face becomes warm and I blush slightly.

Upon realizing this, my eyes widen and I look to the side like I've been caught or something.

Way to make it more obvious, you freaking idiot. I bite my lip and a laugh comes from his direction.

”Why are you acting so suspiciously, Rysia? Have you been thinking of something naughty?” A beautiful smile graces Jett's handsome and slightly tanned face.

”Of course not! I'm still working!”, I respond with a huff.

”Hmmm...? What is this? I think I see something pretty cute that I don't want to miss.” He comes even closer, with his face just a few inches from mine.

A child-like grin replaces his previous expression - which heaps more pressure on me so that I'd admit my defeat and squeal.

”God! Are you a child or something?! Stop it!” I try to smack his shoulder as a warning, only for him to expertly hold my hand in his and he gives the back of my fingers a kiss.

Argh! He's so irritatingly smooth sometimes that it makes me giggle.

My face that was full of playful annoyance a second ago has now changed to one that's full of smiles as I belt out a few laughs.

Jett pulls me closer and I wrap my arms around him as I melt into his embrace. He leans in and whispers in my ear, ”You're the one I've wanted most in my life so I guess I've become a bit more selfish when you finally became mine 4 years ago.”

He moves backward a little and sits on the edge of my office desk. He lovingly brushes the sides of my face before looking straight into my eyes with so much longing.

Jett nuzzles gently against my face and brings his mouth to my ear. ”So... I've been wondering if this feisty wife of mine will finally let me meet our children?”

Gosh, this guy is persistent.

Children, huh... Mine... and Jett's...

I close my eyes and mull over this for a bit.

Mm... Well, I guess it's time. It's been 4 years after all.

My eyelashes flutter open and I lift my right hand and see our wedding ring.

Giving him a gentle smile, I press my lips against his and give him a light peck. ”Okay, Jett... let's do this then. We can start tomo---” Before I could finish my sentence, his tongue slips through my mouth and opens the slight gap between my teeth even wider.

Our tongues swirl against the other and I moan when Jett presses himself up against me with his already slightly stiff member.

”Where do you want to do it?! on the desk?! against the window?! Tell me! I'll do anything you want!” Jett huffs and his hands ravage my body and clothes.

”JETT!!! I didn't mean NOW! Co--” I get cut off yet again by this idiot who can't seem to keep his dick in his pants once I gave him the 'okay'.

I'm about to slap his arm and exasperatingly tell him off when I meet his sad puppy dog eyes. However, it wasn't like ANY of his previous sad puppy dog eyes that have NOT worked even ONCE... it seems like he has acquired a few extra levels that it's almost impossible to say no to this sad, pitiful creature!

I scream in a softer, but extremely high pitched sound for a little bit and I stop.

”FINE! Have it your way then!” I push him off me and he pouts.

”If we're really going to do this though, then you need to follow me and do anything I say tonight!” I look back at him hungrily with a type of madness that has overcome me completely for the night.

[THE END.]
