His Moonlight Saviour

Third Person's Pov

"I won't miss it so much." Zulu said, taking her earrings and shoes off, plopping on the bed. "What will you not miss, darling?" She motioned around the room. "This. I thought I would. I thought I would miss the WIFI, the food or even the movies but it's not important to me anymore."

He sat next to her on the bed, kissing her cheek. "Why is that?"

She looked at him in his eyes, smiling softly. "This really large man with a sexy man bun changed my mind." Her lips met his for a second before she pulled away, sitting on the floor between his legs, grabbing the comb on the night stand, throwing it on him.

"Work your magic."

"Only if you agree to hold the wedding as soon as we get back."

"Deal."

Zulu woke up with Artemis and Nemesis shaking her. "What?!" Zulu groans, falling off the bed. "Wait, why am I here? I thought I was-"

"He brought you back home last night while you were sleeping." They rushed me to the tub, stripping me, pushing me in. "Alright! Stop!"

They looked at her with wide smiles. "Why is everyone rushing? Is something happening?"

"Of course something is happening!"

"It is your wedding day! We need to get you ready!"

Zulu was shocked beyond belief. She agreed to get married when they got back. "This man really doesn't waste time."

Zulu stopped them once more. "But I don't have a wedding dress or -" They rolled their eyes at her. "You have little faith in us."

After scrubbing the her clean, they pulled her out the tub, drying her and in walked Bethany with a smile on her face as she was dressed in a silk, blue gown, her hair tied in a high bun. Zulu smiled at her, her wedding ring, shining on her slim finger as she opened the double doors wider as female servants piled in.

"Bethany arranged this entire thing, we offered to help since she was busy with the wedding dress." Zulu placed her robe around her as she smiled at everyone around her. She never thought that she would see the day that she would be married to a god.

Once her makeup was finished, Bethany helped comb her hair, curling it, placing it in a fancy bun, having some of her hair drop at the side of the face. "You look amazing already." Artemis spoke softly, sniffing softly in the corner.

"Are you crying?" Nemesis snickered at her friend.

"Stop getting distracted and hurry. We only have two hours to have her ready and one is already gone." She fiddled with the white veil in her hands, looking everywhere but at Nemesis.

"It is alright to cry, weddings are a beautiful thing."

Zulu giggled at her friends, looking at herself in the mirror. She couldn't believe that this was her. She wasn't even this happy at her wedding with Roy. 

"How do you feel, Zulu, this is your big day." Bethany smiled at her.

"I feel- I feel content, loved, joyous, peaceful, I just feel beautiful and happy. When I came here, I thought that it would be just like on earth. I would be like a nobody, looked at with pity and have no friends."

"You were wrong, you have us, we love and care about you." Artemis rubbed my back.

"But you have someone who loves you more than anything and he is waiting for you right now. So please get into that dress."

Zulu stood to her feet , slipping into the dress and Bethany placed her veil on, covering her face. "Beautiful."

Her heart was pounding out of her chest, tears glassed her eyes but they didn't fall. "This is really happening. I'm getting married."

Volkan looked at Zeus and Zephyr. "I thought I would never see the day, Volkan, the beast is getting married. The god has finally fallen in love." Zeus laughed alongside Zephyr.

"I can still be a beast, if you prefer that."

"Careful, the weather might change." Lightening strike across the sky, making Volkan laugh.

"Having an angry bride is nothing compared to you." Elder Gartha walked in with smile, kissing her husband.

Many gods and deities filled in the room, taking their assigned seats. 

"The bride has arrived."

Volkan stiffened, he clenched his hands together, looking at the closed doors. The monster was getting married to the woman that he loved and he couldn't wait to have her in his arms forever.

 "You are about to rip your clothes if you clench up again." Zephyr chuckled.

The double doors opened and in walked Zulu with her friends close behind her. His jaw dropped as he watched her glide down the isle. Her eyes made contact with his, immediately bringing tears to his eyes.

He was crying. Volkan loved this woman so much that the very thought of just having her made him cry. He thought he deserved nothing but pain and suffering but Zulu proved him wrong.

Zulu saw the tears fall down his face making her cry, after trying her best to hold them in all the way here. He stretched his hand out, taking hers in them as they stood at the alter with Zeus. Her hands went to his cheeks, wiping his tears away.

"You look absolutely stunning, my darling." He whispered as the ceremony begun. 

"We are joining two gods as one. They have decided to join together in harmony and unity. They have brought together under horrible circumstances but have fought through it all and stand here to make their tie permanent."

Volkan brought his hand out as well as Zulu as Zeus poked their hands, drawing some blood from them. He mixed it together, placing it in a vile. "The bond is formed."

Everyone cheered in the crowd but Volkan stopped them. "In our custom, we do not share wedding vows but I have taken liberty of writing them. Forgive me, I am not strong with words."

Zulu smiled at him as he held her hands in his, looking into her eyes lovingly.

"Zulu, the day you arrived, I know that I was horrible to you, I made you feel unwelcomed when you did not want to be there. After everything I put you thought, you still decided to accept me and give me a chance as your friend."

"I never had a friend before and it made me feel welcomed. It made me feel like I had someone that was there for me when everyone had turned their backs on me, not that I blamed them for it."

"The day that I started loving you was the day you, accepted me after hearing all the horrible things that I did and still treating me the same. You never ran."

"You stayed and proved to me that I was more than just a monster and I love you for it. I promise to always show you love you and laugh at your horrible jokes."

Zulu teared up slightly at his words as Zeus clapped his hands together, bringing a scroll in the front of them. They both signed it as the crowd cheered once more as he picked his wife up in his arms, kissing the daylights out of her.

"I love you so much, Volkan."

"I love you too, my beautiful Zulu."
