The Playboy's Marriage

Epilogue

~Your love is all I need to be complete~

Lopèz

I stood at the aisle. I'm in my neatly tucked Armani suit with my hands joined together feeling more than nervous, I was shaking underneath my composure. The thousand plus guests were all seated waiting for the beautiful bride to appear. My family was seated in front,I glanced at Marquez- he nodded at me with a proud smile.

Of course he will be proud! This was what he has always wanted for me.

"Where's Isabel?". I asked Daniel my friend who stood behind me.

"She's the bride,let her take her time bro".

He gave me an okay sign.

My hands were trembling at this point,I could not keep them still.....I loosened my bowtie a little, it was holding my breathing.

I got so nervous, thrilled and overwhelmed with happiness. Isabel being my wife was all I ever wanted, it's not even an arranged marriage this time.......we both want this.

We held our wedding ceremony in the church. It was our wish to celebrate our togetherness in the presence of a priest. The church was filled with decorations, mostly red roses, tiny white flowers, lace trimmings, and gold ribbons.

My eyes focused on the entrance of the church where the bride would come in. I kept on glancing at it, waiting for my woman to appear.

I suddenly remembered our first wedding. She looked at me with so much irritation and disdain, her expression was so cold but her beauty was mesmerizing I could not take my eyes off her. At that moment, I knew I was in deep trouble.

I smiled remembering that day.

"Congratulations, man". Alfonso my best man tapped my back, "To think I thought arranged marriage isn't for you.......it actually works".

I shrug. "What can I say? I'm simply perfect".

Music played, and the wedding ceremony started. The entire entourage walked down the aisle and took their places at the front. The bridal march song started playing, all heads turn to the door so keen to see the bride.

My heart pounded so hard, anticipating the moment of seeing Isabel.

The doors opened so wide revealing Isabel.

I was rendered speechless! Isabel was looking so beautiful in her white wedding gown and her long veil flowing behind her.

My jaw simply dropped to the floor. She looked a million time more beautiful when her eyes held mine and her smile broadened at me.

Everything and everyone seemed to vanish. My mind drifted off to another universe. There was only me and Isabel, starring at each other as we came closer to each other.

When she stopped in front of me, I mouthed to her you're beautiful.... She blushed smiling.

The priest cleared his throat in front of us and started.

"Do you Isabel Fernandéz accept this man right here as your lawfully wedded husband......in sickness and in health, through rich or poor and till death do you apart?".

Tears of joy filled her eyes as she gazed at me. "Y-yes I do. Of course I do, I'll always accept him".

I released a breath I didn't know I was holding. The priest faced me.

"And you young man, Lopéz Fernandéz accept this beautiful woman here as your lawfully wedding wife......",

"Fuck! Yes I do! I accept".

"With the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife......you may now kiss-",

Oh damn it!

I held her waist and slammed my lips on her's, there were so many gasps and laughter's and soon there were loud cheers and claps.

Isabel smiled against my lips wrapping her arms around me possessively. "I love you so much".

"I love you hundred times more".

The end of a beautiful love story...
