Epilogue

Two and a half years later

Bastien

“I still can't believe you're real sometimes.” I picked up my two-year-old daughter, Aleesa, and held her out at arms length, looking her over.

It'd been about three years since I came back to be Olivia's bodyguard, and knowing that we made this little monster together still blew my fucking mind.

Sometimes I had to just look at her, to convince myself that she was real.

Aleesa had my black hair and big nose, unfortunately, but she had her mother's piercing blue eyes and beautiful face. I couldn't help but smile whenever I saw her cause a little trouble. It drove Olivia nuts...

Which made me smile more.

“Oh thank God!” Trisha rounded the backstage corner of the theatre. She placed a hand over her chest in relief. “She certainly takes after you, running off halfcocked like that. Aleesa nearly gave me a heart attack!”

“She's just keeping you on your toes, grandma.” I smiled as my mother eyed me. She was still as graceful as she'd always been, but with Delvin now in prison, some of that fire had returned to her eyes. They were as pretty as I’d remembered.

“Mommy,” Aleesa excitedly exclaimed, seeing Olivia on the stage behind me. I pulled her close and made all the right noises to quiet her during Olivia's rehearsal. Olivia was almost done for the day so I figured we'd all surprise her for dinner.

“Are you sure we can be here?” Trisha side stepped some of the bustling human traffic. “I'd hate to get kicked out of a Broadway show.”

“I'd love to see them try.” Olivia was their show's lead actress at the Palace Theatre in one of their biggest plays. They weren't going to kick her family out of a rehearsal.

Now that we had Aleesa it was impossible to go to all of Olivia's rehearsals, but I still never missed one of her actual shows.

I turned and watched Olivia flit around the stage, hitting her marks and delivering her lines with crisp perfection. It was hard not to fall in love with her every time I watched her perform. She radiated talent and passion like she had when I watched her in high school. She seemed so much happier now that she was done with film. Stage acting had always been her real passion anyway; Delvin just forced her to do otherwise.

Olivia had overcome a lot to get to where she was now—the hottest new talent in the theatre world. Between the viral video of Olivia kissing her bodyguard in an illegal underground fight and the news of Delvin's arrest and eventual conviction, the media wasn't too kind to the Ward legacy.

The craziest thing was how fast it all went away.

For two whole months, Olivia was crucified in every major outlet, then it all disappeared. The news moved on to the next scandal, then the one after that.

Weirdly, Olivia began getting this cult following that loved her new bad girl image.

In the end, it actually helped solidify Olivia as the 'Broadway Bad Girl.
