Maverick grabs me first, dipping me in his arms and landing an all-consuming kiss that marks me as his. When he tilts me back up, my head is swimming. But then Hendricks is there, patiently waiting his turn with a smile on his face. He turnsme in his arms, twirling me so that my dress fans out before bringing me in against his chest. He tilts my head by cupping my jaw taking a moment to study my face before his mouth meets mine.
The kiss is soft, but passionate. Just like Hendricks.
Jack is the last to take me into his arms.
“Hello, wife,” he says before leaning down and taking my mouth with his. He tilts me slightly, gripping the back of my head as his tongue sweeps into my mouth. When I open my eyes, I’m lost in the way he looks at me with such love that I feel it all the way to my toes.
Then Hendricks and Maverick kiss and I look on with tears in my eyes. The love I have for my husbands is unmatched.
There’s a cacophony of applause that erupts around us as we’re declared, husbands and wife.
We run down the aisle, and I toss my bouquet over my shoulder.
Iris catches it and I don’t miss the way she immediately looks at McKenzie. I wink at them, and they smile back at me. Faye lets out a loud whistle and Audrey and Stephanie dab at their eyes. The fact that even after I transformed into a vampire and they still showed up for me and are still my friend means the fucking world to me. I love those girls with my whole soul and I’m grateful to know them.
Jack gathers me into his arms, picking me up as we reach the end of the aisle and we leave our wedding to the sound of applause and cheers.
After our party where we dance until dawn, they take me to our brand-new cabin, made just for us. Jack carries me over the threshold and into our married life. He sets me down and I take in my surroundings. The high ceilings and expansive open floor layout is just what I pictured. They even made sure to havemy own library that’s stacked with all my favorite books and a rolling ladder.
I can’t wait to start making a lifetime of memories here with my husbands. My monsters. My soulmates.
Nightmare Acres might have started out as a silly vacation idea, but now it’s become the place I don’t ever want to leave. It’s a place I found myself in the midst of chaos and fell in love along the way.
“Is it everything you wanted?” Maverick asks.
“It’s everything and more,” I answer with a smile on my face.
“Now how about we show you the perfect wedding night,” Hendricks says, spinning me into him.
I laugh. “Lead the way. I want to be shaking so hard from how much you three make me come.”
“Challenge accepted,” Maverick says, picking me up over his shoulder as he carries me off to our massive bed.
I never considered myself a lucky person, but now looking at my life, I feel like the luckiest bitch, and I wouldn’t change it for anything in the world.
The End.
