One week later

I am looking in the mirror at a person I do not recognize, maybe because Alex has put way too much eye make-up on me.

“I look like a raccoon, Alex!”

“No, you don’t! You look like you are wearing a smoky eye and it’s gorgeous, if I do say so myself.”

“Alright, but when people think I am a hooker tonight, I will kill you.”

“Calm down, everyone will know that you are Cole’s hooker, so no worries.”

I laugh because tonight my mother is throwing a huge party downtown, for Cole and I to announce our marriage and to celebrate my progression. Talk about timing.

After the team grabbed Carter, they offer him a deal he can’t refuse. He can confess and admit he was of sound mind, and go to jail by the shore, or they can make him disappear. I don’t ask if the threat is real.

Thankfully, Carter is taken into custody by the police and admits his guilt. I am free from him and tonight is the night we start our lives, unhidden.

Cole peeks his head into the room with his eyes closed. “Everyone decent?”

“That depends. Is personality included?” I laugh, looking over at Alex. “Bitch,” she mouths.

Cole comes up behind me and looks in the mirror. “You look spectacular, I mean it. You will easily be the most beautiful woman in the room.” Alex snorts, and we both turn our heads to look at her.

“Sorry, I’ll just take my ugly self into the other room.” She gets up to leave us alone.

“Okay,” Cole says. I slap his arm and he laughs. He turns me around. “Are you ready, Mrs. Parker?” I turn around, looking in the mirror at my gorgeous ivory gown, my hair tucked to one side. I feel elegant, like a 1940’s movie star, and I’m about to announce to all of our friends and family that we are married. I am so ready for this moment.

My mother has spared no expense, renting the most enviable venue overlooking the city. The ballroom itself is expansive, hosting a twelve-piece band and covered from floor to ceiling with pink roses and candlelight. She has managed to create a room that is both spectacular and cozy at the same time. It could not be a better setting for tonight’s plan.

I walk in and take in the room with awe and appreciation. “It’s beautiful, Mom. Perfect, really!”

“Well it’s not every day your only daughter gets married. Or remembers being married!” She is obviously thrilled, joy emitting from her like heat from the sun. I laugh with her and she takes me around the room to show me all the details. We spend some time talking about the menu and the events of the evening; then Richard clears his throat and says, “Dearest, people will be arriving. We should make ourselves available to greet them.” My mother squeezes my hand and walks toward her husband, to join him greeting guests.

“We should join them, Cole.” I look over at him, taking a call a few steps away.
