Underworld Desires (COMPLETE)

Epilogue (1): A New Chapter

The DeLuca estate buzzed with excitement as the day of Bella and Enzo's wedding approached. Sunlight streamed through the grand windows, illuminating the elegantly decorated hall. White roses and delicate lilies adorned every surface, filling the air with their sweet fragrance.

Bella stood in front of the mirror, adjusting her veil as her heart raced with anticipation. Her reflection showed not just a bride, but a woman transformed by love and courage. Clara entered the room, a wide smile on her face.

“You look breathtaking,” she said, stepping closer. “Enzo won’t be able to take his eyes off you.”

Bella chuckled nervously. “I hope so! I can’t believe this day is finally here. After everything we’ve been through, it feels surreal.”

“Everything you fought for has led to this moment,” Clara replied, her expression turning serious. “You deserve all the happiness in the world.”

Outside, the sounds of preparations filled the air—laughter, music, and the clatter of dishes being set. Marco and the other men were busy organizing details, ensuring everything was perfect.

As the time drew closer, Bella felt a mix of excitement and anxiety. “What if something goes wrong?” she fretted.

“Nothing will go wrong. It’s your day,” Clara reassured her. “Just focus on the love you and Enzo share.”

With a deep breath, Bella nodded, letting Clara’s words sink in. She had fought for this life, and today was the culmination of that struggle.

When it was time, Bella walked down the aisle, her heart pounding. Enzo stood at the altar, his eyes lighting up as he caught sight of her. Dressed in a sharp suit, he looked every bit the formidable mafia boss but with a tenderness that melted her heart.

As she reached him, the world around them faded away. They exchanged vows, promises of love and loyalty, each word sealing their bond even tighter. Bella could see the emotion in Enzo’s eyes, a mix of passion and vulnerability that made her heart swell.

“Now, you may kiss the bride,” the officiant announced, a smile on his face.

With a shared glance that spoke volumes, Enzo leaned in, his hands cradling Bella’s face as he captured her lips in a kiss that felt electric. Time stood still; the chaos of their past faded away, leaving only the two of them in their own world.

As they pulled away, laughter erupted from their family and friends, the joy of the moment washing over them. Bella looked up at Enzo, her heart full.

“We did it,” she whispered, her voice barely above a breath.

“Yes, we did,” he replied, a broad smile spreading across his face.

Hand in hand, they turned to their loved ones, ready to embrace this new chapter together. The journey ahead would undoubtedly have its challenges, but now they were united, stronger than ever.

And as they stepped into their future, Bella knew they would face whatever came next side by side, bound by a love that had conquered all.
