 "Alright everything is set and all we have to do is get the bride and groom ready" My mother smiled as she entered Azrael and my bedroom, which was half full of rushing brides maids and maids, while I sat in a make up chair drinking tea and staring at my wedding dress, which was on a mannequin, through the mirror of the vanity. Azrael was downstairs getting prepared in the guest room with the twins, my step father, some other men, and a few male help.

 "Alright, come along, now dear, it's time for you to get ready." My mother said as she gently pulled the teacup out of my hands and set it on the vanity in front of me. I looked at her through the mirror and smiled, before easing out of my seat and walking over to the mannequin.

 "My hair and make up are done all I need to do is slip into this." I mumbled looking at the floor length dress. The dress was tailored so that it would curve in, to hold my breast up instead of going straight down.

 After thirty minutes everything was ready, everyone was dressed, the flowers and food were set up, Azrael and the men were already at the alter, the brides maids and maid of honor and I were all dressed and waiting to go. My step father came in and smiled as he looked at me.

 "Are you ready dear?" He asked as he stepped in a silently greeted the other after me.

 "As ready as I'll ever be." I smiled back and he wrapped his right arm around my left and as the music began to play for the brides maids to go out first. They each wished me good luck as they passed and a small kiss on the cheek.

 "Break a leg" My maid of honor and best friend winked at me before it was her turn to walk.

 Hades and I stood in the archway that led to the alter. Everyone stood as soon as they saw us. Many gasped with smiles on their faces, many of them people I didn't even know. There was only one person who's attention mattered to me the most. A few feet ahead of me, the man I was going to marry.

 He stood at the alter looking as sharp as ever. When my soon to be husband turned and graced me with his loving smile, I couldn't help but blush. My mother stood in the front row smiling at me with tears in her eyes. Her dress was blue and faded to purple at the ends of the skirt the and the straps of the dress. There was a cluster of purple and blue flowers pinned on the left side right above her heart. My step-father, Hades, wore a black tux with a blue and purple tie along with a blue flower bud pinned to the jacket of his tux.

 "You are beautiful, it's obvious my dear, that Azrael thinks so as well." Hades whispered to me as he led me down the isle toward Azrael. My wedding dress was long and strapless. It was a white ball gown with a trail of glitter going from the top of the dress to the bottom. I wore a small tiara with a veil connected to it, one side went down from top of my head to my waist and the front went from the same spot to just above the bulge of my pregnant stomach.

 "I feel beautiful, and thank you, fore everything." I answered looking to him then back at everyone around the large chapel.

 "Dear, as your new father, I do this out of the love I have already grown for you. And you now have brother's and sisters, and cousins and so on" he gestured to the women that stood as brides-maids on the left side, one of my dearest friends that had died long ago stood as my maid of honor, then he gestured to the males and other females that smiled warmly at me and Hades.

 "Your right, and I also thank you for taking care of my mother, god knows she needed someone to care for her." I was tearing up as I remembered what my mother had gone through. We got a few feet away from the alter and Hades let out a low chuckle.

 "There will be no more suffering for you and your mother, the past in where it should be, today you are creating your own family." Hades encouraged.

We stopped three feet away from the alter, "Who gives this woman away?" The Priest who was more like a Gothic church man asked in a voice that wasn't as powerful as hades, but had demanded attention. My mother looked over at my then Hades and smiled.

 "We do." They said together. Hades smiled, lifted my veil halfway and kiss my tear stained cheek before letting it fall back into place and taking his seat next to my mother. I walked up to the alter and stood next to Azrael and in front of the priest. The two children that cupid created set the train of my dress down. The little girls threw some flowers around us before taking turning into doves.

 The dark priest began to say the vows as Azrael and I stared at each other. I held my bouquet of flowers in my right hand and Azrael's left hand in my right. He would squeeze my hand lightly from time to time and eventually it was our time to say 'I do'. After we made our promises, the priest then took out a blade with a golden bejeweled handle.

 He made a slice in the palm of Azrael's hand then mine and held a blackish gold jeweled cup between us as we let the blood run from our wounds into it, mixing together. He said a quick prayer over the cup after adding a dark liquid and tying our wounded hands together. Azrael drank from the cup first then me.

 "I now pronounce you Reaper and Wife." With that said we leaned in and kissed each other long and deep as cheers erupted around us.

 "And now, it's time for the reception!" Hades boomed. Peopled cheered louder, while Hades created a large portal for everyone to go through.

 "We'll go separately" Azrael informed my parents as he lifted my up like I was the lightest bride and teleported us to ballroom in the underworld mansion.

 "So tell me, what do you plan to do now that your married and have a baby due any day now?" I asked Azrael as we walked through the crowds of people dancing laughing and drinking.

 "I plan to make more babies with my lovely wife Mrs. Oriana Daemon, and I plan to start a whole legacy with our little family." He explained kissing my forehead and laying a hand on my stomach.

"I plan on doing the same with my husband." I laughed as we walked to the large dining table at the back of the ball room.

We danced around until my feet got tired and at ten-thirty on the dot, it was time for dinner to start. Everyone sat at their assigned tables and became silent.

"Let the dinner commence!" His voice announced triggering the distribution of food to the tables from the dozens of waiters.

"Thank you mom, Hades, you both have mad this a wonderful day for me and I appreciate everything you've done for me so far," I announced to them before digging into my plate of steak and potatoes.

"Life will be much sweeter for you now my love, this I promise," Atesh's husky voice invaded my ears through all the chattering voice around the ballroom.
