The happy couple and the girls fly home. Lily has been busy preparing a party and celebration for Zakina and Rosa, the girls rush to Lily to regale her of their vacation, Lily hangs on their every word, seeing how happy they are. The girls are reaching puberty and their powers should be all over the place, but due to their happiness, they're calm and not one single outburst is seen. While they were gone, Jaclyn gives Veronica another chance, there's a possibility that she is falling in love. Lily doesn't approve of the relationship because of what she tried to do. Lily however is too focused on Zakina, she can't believe how much she's changed. Samael even tells Lily that she's truly changed for the good.
Samael sends her and Rosa a gift, it's a ring, it's a black diamond, it's for Zakina's finger, it's spelled so that Zakinas temper is kept in check, he sends Rosa a necklace, it's a blue diamond, it's spelled to give her and the new family she's creating a constant source of happiness. Jaclyn is a tad jealous of the new family Rosa is creating but she's trying to be happy for her. The girls are given charms for their bracelets from Samael. The girls call him and thank him.
The guests begin to arrive, Zakina and Rosa are given gifts from each invitee, they pile high, the best thing about Zakina being a mind reader, she can tell what the gifts are, she said to herself, "these are a randy bunch, most of the gifts are sex toys and lingerie."
Lily organised the best of everything, tasks for the girls and ways to celebrate with the adults and have as much fun. The house was full to the rafters of people mostly members of the society, not many had met Zakina, especially the new members. They were immediately intrigued by her. Those that knew of her, they knew of her history, but before them was a different woman, not the woman they heard vicious stories about. Zakina looks almost identical to Lily, but to many she was far more beautiful and alongside Rosa, they made quite the beautiful couple.
The people could feel their chemistry in their blood. Everyone could. Lily starts the evening by congratulating the happy couple and thanking the people for coming and their gifts. The people clap, they see her happier than ever before. While making her speech, a face they thought they'd never see stood beside her again was Gabi. They were to make their own announcement but, not to steal the girls thunder, they hold back on their announcement until the evening was at a close.
Zakina and Rosa look at each other, they realise that there might be a double wedding on the cards? The guests are excited to see Gabi, then Jaclyn turns up with Veronica, the family still unable to trust her, but they allow her to enjoy the evening with everyone else for the sake of Zakina and Rosa. Jannelle turns up with her husband and Joslin turns up with a date, a guy she met through Jannelle's husband.
The girls and their friends enjoy their part of the evening, Jennifer is quite the rebel, she stole a bottle of vodka and have some to her sisters and her friends. The girls are becoming rebellious but that's normal for girls of their age.
Zakina sees it and takes the bottle, she says, "i won't be telling your mom about this, but do it again, I'll tell her and your friends parents." Zakina isn't a huge drinker, neither is Rosa, they lead a very healthy lifestyle. Zakina watches them, she knows they're not drunk she doesn't worry about accidents but it's the parents of her friends that she worries about, she wants to be seen as a good parent.
The evening is amazing, so they finally set a date. They're to marry in a months time. Lily tells her, that she must seek permission from Samael can the date work?
Zakina tells her, "mom, I've spoken with uncle Sami, he gave me full permission and that if I carry on down this path, he will allow me to remain here, he won't call me back."
Lily says, "but there's things baby that can make you fade, make you feel like you're being pulled home."
Zakina says, "uncle Sami won't let me fade, he's already told me this, he only allowed you to begin to fade because you were doing nefarious things against his wishes. He says if you marry Gabi, steer clear of dad then you've nothing to worry about."
Lily replies, "it would seem you have his ear more than I do. You have him wrapped around your little finger."
Zakina snaps, "are you jealous?"
Lily replies, "don't be absurd, it's just that he's my oldest friend, ex love of my life, my confidant and muse, yet you his niece, he gives you everything."
Zakina snaps, "mom, he punished me too, I've been made to do awful things, he knows I won't cross him again."
Lily smiles, "well just keep him happy."
Zakina says, "my priority now is my family, Sami knows how important that is, even though my family are human, he loves that, he loves them. He's happy that I am."
Zakina and Rosa see out all the guests, then sit down with the family once all the strangers are gone.
Lily is sat next to Gabi, she has her hand and says, tonight is a double celebration, Gabi and I have decided to marry, the girls are happy, all six of them every one with a J in their name is happy.
Lily calls for Veronica by her side, she says, "Veronica, not too long ago you misunderstood this organisation but you tried to murder us all, you thought that we were to blame for your mothers sickness, but Jaclyn loves you deeply and we now accept you."
Gabi says, "get me a huge bottle of champagne, we must celebrate all broken links, that have now reconnected."
The love in the room was overwhelming, Samael made an appearance in the living room mirror asking that everyone gather round.
He says, "sorry I couldn't be with you all, there's been a huge battle down here, many have wanted an escape hatch that Zakina got, but since it's all Lily's children, my brother is shirking his responsibilities as a father, so I need Lily for a few days to talk sense into him and those wretched little brats."
Lily asks if she must come immediately? He replies, "yes, the sooner the better."
Lily kisses Gabi and says, "I'll be home soon." With that they part.
