'Marriage is like a sleepover with your best friend every single night of the wèek.'-Christie Cook

Four months passed and Kharma stood excitedly in her wedding dress, with a very pregnant belly jutting out. Alpha Kingston walked into the room she was getting dressed in.

"Alpha Kingston, don't you know it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding?"

Dior yelled at Alpha Kingston as Kharma felt a sharp pang of pain. She held her belly and decided to ignore it. She had been getting Braxton hicks contractions all day.

"Kharma are you okay?"

Alpha Kingston asked rushing up to her. He could always tell when something g wasn't right with her thanks to the mate bond, and that's the feeling he was having right now.

"I'm fine. Let's get married."

"We are gathered here today to witness the joining together of Alpha Kingston and Luna Kharma."

The minister said as Kharma felt her water break and a small stream of fluid trickled down her leg.

"I'm sorry, but can you skip all that part and go to the I-dos?"

Kharma asked as the minister looked at Alpha Kingston as if seeking his permission. Alpha Kingston chuckled and nodded. It seems his bride was as eager to marry him as he was to marry her.

"Do you Alpha Kingston take Kharma to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold until death for your part?"

The minister asked Alpha Kingston.

"I do."

He replied solemnly. The minister turned to Kharma.

"Do you Luna Kharma take Alpha Kingston to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold until death do your part?"

He asked Kharma.

"I do."

Kharma replied wincing as the 1st contraction hit.

"Then by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride."

The minister said as Alpha Kingston kissed her passionately. He took the ring out of his pocket and slid it onto her finger while she slid his ring onto his finger.

"Hurry baby, kiss me."

Kharma said as Alpha Kingston looked at her puzzled.

"What's the rush baby, we have forever to savor this moment."

Alpha Kingston said as Kharma screamed.

"Okay, what's going on?"

Alpha Kingston asked her.

"My water just broke."

Kharma said as Alpha Kingston swung her into his arms and rushed her to the doctor.

An hour later, Bloom Lia Kingston was born. That was the moment Kharma realized that Kingston had only one name. (Alpha wasn't a name it was a title) and that was so appalling to her. She laughed as she signed Luna Kharma Kingston for mother and Alpha Kingston signed Alpha Kingston in the space for father. Bloom had a red mop of curly hair and eyes that changed with every mood.

"She is perfect. She looks like you."

Alpha Kingston smiled proudly at his daughter.

"No, she looks like us."

The perfect ending, or was it?
