Lesso:
I couldn't properly process everything that just happened. I stared at y/n with wide eyes as she stood over Rafals dead body. I turned my head to the side and finally had the brain cells to check Doveys pulse. I sighed in relief when I found a strong one meaning she was just knocked unconscious. I heard footsteps behind me and I turned my head to look at my girlfriend. We both were in shock about everything that just happene,  but deep down I think we both knew that it was good he was dead. "You ok love?" She asked me softly as she knelt down infront of me. I smiled at her and nodded my head. "We should take dovey to a healer." "You to Leo. You've literally been held captive for weeks!" The fact that weeks had gone by since I was locked in that room sounded almost impossible for myself to fathom. "I guess we probably should then..."

No one's pov:
Y/n managed to summon some fairy's and wolves to help carry Dovey and much to her dismay Lesso to the infirmary. Once they arrived the entire staff immediately raced over to examine Lesso. Although she acted fine and had a tough guy act going on, it really wasn't fooling anyone. They placed her on a bed and started running magical medical diagnoses on her. Her usual suit was gone and in its place she was wearing a filthy dark grey tunic. The healers stared with the 'easy' stuff first which was taking care of the thick gashes all along her back and thighs. Y/n hadn't seen these when she was in the cell and had to excuse herself to be physically sick from looking at the destructive aftermath of the psychopathic man. The part finally came that everyone was dreading, examining Lesso's baby. Lesso herself was absolutely terrified even though she didn't wasn't to admit it. To everyone's shock her baby was fine. Clarissa had transferred all of her hood magic into casting a protective shield around Lesso's womb to insure that the child would be safe.

Lesso:
I heard the healer say that my baby was alive and well thanks to Clarissa. I think it was then I realized a thought that I had known since the beginning. I wasn't ready to be a mother. I remembered a conversation I had with Clarie years ago when she first told me she couldn't have kids. There wasn't a curse or anything she just simply wasn't able to. I've always known that she would be an amazing mother and her sacrificing her own magic for a baby that wasn't even hers proved that for me. I'm not saying that I never want kids ever but I know that as much as I would love this child there just would be a part of me who would always resent it for what Rafal did to me. I wouldn't be fair for me or this kid to grow up knowing that it's own mother resented it.

Time skip to one year later (sry I'm lazy):

Lesso and y/n sat side by side to each other watching something that was a long time coming. Emma was dressed in an elegant white flowy pantsuit while Clarissa was in a off white wedding dress with floral embroidery. The ceremony took place by the lake and was an unforgettable event. The most adorable sight though was Clarissa and Emma's daughter 'Ivy Rose Dovey-Anemone' walking back down the isle with her moms holding each of their hands while wearing a baby pink dress. Lady Leonora lesso dean of the school for evil. A woman who overcame unspeakable atrocities in her life found her never after with y/n y/l/n of gavaldon. The one thing the two women learned is you can't change the past but you can't let it define you. Leonora learned that love can be found in the most unexpected places. Everyone in this tale went through struggle but they learned how to have there never or ever after.
