Ryan stood in front of his mirror, he looked down, smiling at his five year old son who was mimicking him. He smoothed his suit and adjusted his tie and Drayne did the same too. Ryan hair was finely combed and his face kept glowing as always, Drayne took his mother's sparkling brown eyes but his father's hairs, one could say he looked both like his dad and mom. Ryan bent over to reached for a comb to smoothen Drayne's hair and he did smiling again seeing how cute he looked in his suit.

"Drayne?" Luis said after walking into the room.

"Yes uncle Luis" Drayne answered.

"Why don't you go play with Diana hmm?" He asked, referring to his three years old daughter as he bent over to ruffle Drayne's hair. Ryan frowned as he said to Luis "I just combed that"

"Okay... Bye daddy" Drayne said waving at his dad before scurrying away.

"Bye Drayne and don't run on the stairs!" Ryan yelled so he would hear, he knew he would anyway, the boy only listens to his mom.

Ryan turned back to the mirror to see Luis smirking at him.

"What?" He asked knowing Luis wanted to say something to him since there was no reason to make Drayne go away.

"You're nervous"

"Yeah damn right I am"

"To come to think of it you never told me why you didn't show up early to the battle ground in Kogaris, I mean even before the battle started you just vanished"

"Luis really?... you're bringing that up now?"

"Well I never get a chance to speak to you Mr billionaire... Now that I have I'm not just gonna let it slide"

"I told Lydia, Lora and... Wait I did tell Bella didn't she tell you?" Ryan said turning to Luis after grabbing his watch. Luis was also in a fine suit, he stood with his legs apart and his hand in his pocket looking as handsome as always.

"Wait what?... She didn't tell me... Ugh I'm always the last person to get any juicy gist"

Ryan chuckled and said "well technically you're not... I didn't tell the whole of Kogaris... It would only get them more terrified"

"Yeah... Okay so go on... Tell me what happened"

"Well when Imara walked closer to me... I mean when she just show up out of no where in Ganzalo's house" Ryan was saying when he turned back to the mirror again making Luis rolled his eyes and say

"Ryan you are fine... Just tell me what happened"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah bro I am... Now go on" Luis said impatiently.

"When she came closer, she blew a poison and it floated into my nostrils, I didn't know it was a poison at first, I thought it was just her bad breath but no Luis... I started feeling it when we were going to Powler, I had to leave you guys so you wouldn't be worried about me, getting rid of the poison wasn't easy Luis, I struggled for hours".

"Damn I didn't expect that... But then how did you do it?"

"Man it's so disgusting to say... You don't wanna hear it"

"Oh no no I wanna hear..." Luis said as he shook his head.

Luis was caught off by Lydia who walked in and said "hey babe... She's ready"

"Oh right..." Lydia wanted to turn around but Ryan stopped her "hey wait hold on... I'm really nervous I could use a kiss"

"Really bro?" Luis said raising his brows. Lydia only chuckled as she walked closer to Ryan and claimed his lips with Luis not looking away, Ryan suddenly felt calm and relieved as he deepened the kiss.

Ryan released his lips and checked his wife out, Lydia was in a beautiful red gown with beautiful embroidery, she had a chain on her neck and a mild make up on her face.

"You look..." Ryan was speechless he was mesmerized by her pulchrintude.

"I think he means ravishing" Luis said and just then did the two realize he was still in the room.

"What are you still doing guys?... She's ready!" Bella said with a frown of her face after barging into the room.

They all left the room while Ryan went to the room Lora was in, he sighed heavily before opening the door.

Lora was standing in front of the mirror in her beautiful bridal gown, it wasn't the same as the usual one, she said she wanted to look like a fairy and they made just the perfect fairy wedding dress. Lora also wanted her wedding on the beach and so they flew to Maimi to have the wedding.

Ryan thought his beach was okay but Miguel had said he had always wanted to go to Maimi so they agreed. Ryan was pleased that Miguel would always let Lora have what she wanted and they agree on whatever they want together. He was happy for his daughter, he knew for sure Miguel would take good care of her.

At first Ryan couldn't believe it when they came out to tell that they were mates but he learnt to accept it and here he was about to give his daughter away.

Flashback

It was Ryan and Lydia's wedding reception, everyone was cheering and laughing, Lora watched how happy her father was, he was dancing with Lydia and they were both smiling brightly at each other, talking indistinctly and she was holding their one year old baby who acts like a five year old already. Lora still couldn't believe he talks clearly at his age, she tried her best to stop him from talking throughout the wedding so the guest wouldn't start looking at them.

Miguel saw Lora and walked towards her, a wine glass in his hands, he has been drawn to her ever since the day he saved them from the dungeon Imara kept them. He decided to keep her company and so he grabbed a plate of salad for her.

"Hey there" Miguel said to Lora as he sat beside her.

"Hi there" Lora said to him as they both chuckled.

"You seem tired" Miguel said looking down at Drayne who was busy tapping Lora's phone.

"Yeah I am tired but happy at the same time"

"I know that feeling"

"Yeah I can imagine... You are the ruler of Kogaris now" Lora said and Miguel only smiled and nodded.

"I never got to thank you..."

"For what?" Miguel asked confused, he placed the salad on the table and Lora reached for it, she knew he brought it for her.

"Well you didn't tell anyone how hard it was to get us out of Imara's dungeon but I saw it and thank you... Thanks for saving us"

Miguel smiled and replied "I'm happy to help" he sipped his wine and turned to look at the couples dancing then his eyes darted to Ryan's stepmom who kept frowning, he rolled his eyes, he detested the woman ever since he set his eyes on her.

"Hey... So what if a female human sees a male healer eyes glimmer sharply, like you know... The one in the movies those glimmer they show in the eyes of the kids in cartoons"

Miguel chuckled and said "well then they are mates, since it happened with Ryan and Lydia, I guess it's vice versa". Miguel said to Lora not looking back at her but then furrowed his brows when Lora didn't say anything again. He turned to her and saw her face already flushed pink and Miguel's mind screamed

"Shit!"

Present

Ryan gave Lora away with tears in his eyes but soon got over it as they danced happily at the reception.

Drayne was in the hotel with Bella and Luis when Lydia and Ryan decided to take fresh air on the beach. They soodled on the beach with their hands entangled, their were both silent for while as they walked, the sand consuming their feet, they decide to let the fresh air help them relax.

"You know..." Ryan said breaking the silence as Lydia turned to him. "We never said the three magical words to each other" he continued.

"Right" Lydia chuckled "I guess since we knew we didn't need too" she continued and blushed brightly.

Ryan turned around making Lydia do the same, he leaned in and claimed her lips, Lydia thought she would get use to the tingles but never did, she slide her hand around his neck and kissed him back too.

He released his lips and whispered to her "I love you Lydia Lucas"

"Hmm do you?"

Ryan laughed hard, he placed his forehead and nose on Lydia's "don't answer me with a question Lydia please" he said between laughs.

"I love you too Ryan Lucas" Lydia said as they kissed again.
