"I now pronounce you husband and wife you may kiss the bride" the pastor said and the whole church erupted with cheers as Cathy and Tommy kissed. She had the twins four months ago. Cathy had a girl and a boy. Clara Sydney Holland, after her mother, and Tyrell Jaiden Holland.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The reception was lovely. Had nice decor and everyone was engaged in conversation.
"Mommy! Mommy!" Nat heard and when she looked down it was Nathan and Brent. She picked them up and then came Ben panting.
"Those two are fast" he told her and she chuckled. He stretched his hands to Brent and he shook his head.
"No. Mommy" he told Ben burying his face in the Nat's neck.
"How many times do I have to say it Brent? I am--" Ben stopped her.
"His mother is in a Psych ward. Just give him this one" Nat sighed before being hit in the chest with a bouquet that Nathan grabbed.
"Did you throw that at me?!" She asked Cathy who was on the balcony.
"Maybe!" She yelled back before turning back to Tommy and kissing him. Nat walked over to Dr Charles who was holding Tyrell.
"Nathan give it to Dr Charles" Nat told her son and he passed it to Dr Charles. Instantly about four guys circled her.
"Come on Nat. You got the bouquet you know what that means" Ben said grabbing her waist and pulling her close.
"That you will stop trying?" She raised a brow.
"You didn't tell me stop last night" she stepped out of his grasp and put the kids down.
"I hate you" she said before walked in away and he tried to grab her chuckling but she pulled away.
"Dont touch me!" He stood there laughing.
-----------------------------------------------------------
"All of you move before I tear all your heads off in front of all these people" Ivan pushed through all the men that encircled Dr Charles earlier. "Give me my grandson" he said taking Ty from Dr Charles then he held out his hand to her motioning for her to take it. "She's mine" he said and she took his hand.
"Sorry we didn't know" Jerrod said.
"Shut the fuck up" Ivan replied as Jerrod chuckled.
"Sorry boys" Dr Charles
said sheepishly as he pulled her away.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Tommy and Cathy made their way to Ivan, Dr Charles and the twins.
"There's the lovely couple" Dr Charles greeted them.
"We came to say bye to our babies" Cathy picked up Clara from her car seat and kissed her. "Mommy will be back soon" Cathy said then passed her to Tommy and picked up Tyrell. "Love you baby, I won't stay long" she kissed him then she turned to Tommy. They held them for a minute then put them down "Don't get jealous dad" Cathy chuckled giving him a hug.
"I wasn't" Ivan defended hugging her back.
"Sure you weren't" they parted and she hugged Dr Charles.
"Have a nice time sweety" she said and they pulled apart.
"Don't know if I want to go I don't wanna leave my babies" Cathy said sadly.
"You deserve it. Don't worry about them they're fine." Dr. Charles reassured her.
"I still don't like this idea of you going on a honeymoon" Ivan said.
"Get use to it" Cathy replied. "You're going on yours there weeks after I come from my honeymoon so shush" she said as Christina blushed before fiddling with her engagement ring and a wide grin spread cross her face.
Cathy smirked at Christina before walking away holding hands with Tommy. They said goodbye to Nat, Ben, Nathan, Torisa, Brent, and to the rest of the guest. Then they were off on their two week honeymoon.

*sixteen years later*
*Cathy's POV*
Honestly I never thought things could end up so messed up. Everything was slowly falling down and I feel as a leader I've failed. I've failed my kids, my family and myself. I once thought I could protect everyone and stop them from getting hurt but damn was I wrong.
We all must feel pain and get over it ourselves cuz sister and mama won't be here forever. I'm glad I realized that before it was to late. My kids might be having their own problems but when I was their age I had a lot worst to deal with. They'll survive.
To live this life you have harden your heart and you have to play smart. It's one big chess game and every piece you move counts and at the end of the day checkmate is my goal.
If I let this empire fall I'll be a disappointment and we all know quitting isn't my thing. I hope I move all the right pieces because when I hit checkmate it's my time to obliterate.
You might remember the girl who wouldn't hurt a fly but she's a woman now and there's nothing she won't kill if it stands in her way. Just sit back relax and watch as the story unfolds and how we all cope with the changes. Trust me it's gonna be wild and dangerous.
