When I woke up, I heard my door open. Sara and Mariana were pulling me out of bed. "I have been waiting for this day for years." Sara said as she started to wash my hair. Even though I would never admit it so was I. It was finally time for Bruno and I to get married. Isabella had already made my wedding gown out of the most crimson of roses and Mirabel stayed up all night making the bridesmaids dresses. "Girls, I am so nervous right now."

"Rosa felt exactly the same on her wedding day. I was her maid of honor." I turned it to see Alma with the brightest smile on her face. "Ladies, if I could have a moment alone with my daughter-in-law." Sara and Mariana immediately left the room as Alma had begun to brush my hair. "Even though I have done this with two of my daughter's, I still feel so excited." She said to me. I sighed. "Mariana has asked me to walk her down when she marries Isabella."

"I think that's a wonderful idea." Alma then took my hands. "Your mother was my best friend. She was practically my sister, and I know she would want me to walk you down the aisle in her place." I almost cried when she mentioned Mama. I had to accept. "I would love that Alma." I then gently embraced her. "Reina, you are the best thing that has ever happened to my son. You are the light in his life. You are his miracle."

"He has been the light my life and my miracle since forever. He is my future. He always was and he always will be." The door then opened revealing Sara. "Everyone's in Church. It's time."

Alma stood up and held out her hand. "Are you ready Reina?"

"I've been ready for years." I smiled with excitement and anticipation as I took her hand and we walked out of my Casita to the church.

When the doors opened, everyone was there. All eyes are on me. My new nieces Isabella, Dolores Louisa, and Mirabel. My new nephews Camillo and Antonio were smiling widely at me. Ready for me to officially become their tiá. Julieta, Augustin, Felix and Peppa had tears of happiness in their eyes. Finally, I was going to be there sister-in-law.

And the one that I had always loved. The one who had always loved me. The one who has green eyes I can't help but stare at for hours. Bruno I could tell with holding it all in. When we got to the end of the aisle. Alma let go of me and handed me off to her son. "And as always, your vision has come true." He chuckled lightly, knowing I was right.

The ceremony was beautiful. The vows we exchange to each other left everyone in tears of happiness. After the priest pronounced us husband and wife, I grabbed him, dipped him and kissed him. Drowning out the applause of the Encanto. When we had all exited the church, we had noticed that my Casita had formed with the Madrigal Casita to become one big family chateau.

During the reception, Bruno and I had shared our first dance as Mr. and Mrs. Madrigal. It was the hottest Tango we had ever shared together. If it wasn't for Sara I could have burned the whole Ballroom. During the dance, my whole body had erupted into Flame but not a flame of anger. A flame of passion and love. And instead of Bruno being burned by the fire, it embraced him. There was no pain. Just warmth.

Ever since I met Bruno, he has become the light of my life. Our love shines brighter than any fire, our passion for each other is more intense than any dance we could share. What we say to each other is more beautifully said than any romantic dialogue. Our future was set in stone and even through suffering and heartbreak, this beautiful day still came. And we all came out stronger.

The flame of our love had now become a rapid wildfire burning with intensity each day. And even when the hourglass of the sands of time empty, and the fire is snuffed out, No one will ever forget the Wildfire of our love. They will never stop talking about the fortune teller and his Queen. The story of Bruno Madrigal and Reina Rodriguez.
