Cursed by the Fountain of Youth

Epilogue

Fae stood in front of the full-length mirror, amazed at her reflection. The wedding dress was perfect. Becca was right. With the capped sleeves, scalloped neck, fitted bodice, and full skirt, she looked like she had stepped out of a fairytale. She seriously felt like Cinderella after her wish was granted.

"Come on." Morgan took her by the arm and pulled her forward.

"Morgan's right," Becca said. "It's time to get that ball and chain shackled to your ankle."

Fae frowned. "That ball and chain is your brother."

"Yeah, so I should know what you're getting yourself into. Did you know that when Nick is feeling down, he likes to listen to Hall and Oats?"

"Who are Hall and Oats?" Fae asked.

"Believe me, you don't want to know!" Becca said with a sparkle in her eyes.

"Sorry, but nothing you say will change my mind." Fae tried to hold back her smile. She didn't succeed.

"Don't say I didn't warn you." Becca smirked.

Fae didn't know what she would have done without Becca or Morgan. She couldn't believe they pulled off this wedding so quickly. They were miracle workers.

Thomas and Mason stepped into the room. Her would-be guardian didn't even give her a passing glance. Mason's eyes were on Becca and he was actually smiling! Becca smiled in return as a blush touched her cheeks. He approached her, leaned down, and whispered something in her ear. Becca's face lit up as she nodded. Mason offered her his arm and they followed Morgan out the door. Fae wondered if Nick knew about this development in his sister's love life.

Probably not. She'll wait until after the honeymoon to enlighten him.

Everyone but Fae and Thomas filed out. Thomas stepped to her side, and she linked her arm in his. He grinned as he looked down at her. "You ready?"

Fae nodded and swallowed.

With Thomas on her arm and her bouquet clutched in her hand, Fae stepped into the cathedral. Light spilled in from the stained-glass window, blanketing the throng of guests—who were all looking at her. Her chest quivered in nervousness as she searched for the one person she wanted to see.

And there he was, smiling at her. Standing in his tux, Nick looked so handsome she could swear her heart stopped. Her nervousness evaporated as she focused only on him.

The music began, filling the cathedral, and Fae took her first step toward her new life.
