Savitar's POV
"Do you, Nicholas Ambrosius Gautier, take, Risska Alethea Blaze, to be you're lawfully wedded wife?" Acheron asked Nick.
Nick nodded. "I do."
Acheron turned to Risky. "And do you, Risska Alethea Blaze, take, Nicholas Ambrosius Gautier to be your lawfully husband?"
She smiled and nodded. "I do."
"Then Nick, you may kiss your bride."
He laughed. "About damn time." He then pulled a laughing Risky into his arms and kissed her deeply which earned him a wolf whistle from Talon.
I laughed at my daughter and son-in-law. The music then came on and everyone started to move the chairs so the wedding guests could dance on the lawn. As I was about to ask Risky for a father-daughter dance, the sefa in my pocket grew warm. I knew who was calling without even looking. Guess the dance would have to wait.
I went up to Risky. "I have to go Risky. Your mother's calling and we both know she hates to be kept waiting."
She nodded and hugged me. "Tell her I love her and miss her. Thanks for coming Sav…Dad."
I nodded. She wasn't use to calling me dad due to the fact I didn't tell her that I was her father until way after her training. I turned to Nick.
"Treat her right Malachi."
He nodded. "Is there any doubt?"
I looked into his eyes. Truth was the only thing that I saw. I flashed out into the domain of Apollymi, Risska's mother. She was standing with her back to me, looking into her sefa.
"You know, I would like to have danced with my daughter on her wedding day," I said putting venom into my tone.
"Was she beautiful?" she asked with a sad tone, something I never heard in Apollymi. She must have really be hurting over not be able to hold her daughter since she gave Risska her powers back.
"Yes."
She wiped a tear away and turned to me. "Why did you tell her that you were her father Savitar? Do you know how much danger that puts her in?"
My voice grew in anger. "Just as much declaring herself in front out the Greek pantheon that she is your daughter. Acheron has many enemies. Don't you think they will be after her as well?"
"You underestimate our daughter's abilities Savitar. She has the DNA of not only us, but she also has part of Acheron's powers. She'll be fine."
I mulled that over. "You're right. Do want to see her wedding?"
She nodded and I pulled out the sefa that showed the entire wedding. I saw Apollymi's face light up when I gave it to her. I flashed out so she could have her privacy.
Risska's POV
I rolled over in my bed to face Nick. "I love you Nick."
He rubbed his hand up and down my arms. "And I love you."
I moved closer to him and fell asleep in his arms.
CRASH!
I jumped awake. I looked at the clock and saw that it read 2:00. Someone was downstairs. I moved out of Nick's arms and opened the doors. I moved down the stairs and manifested a long sword. I listened hard for any movement to indicate if the intruder was human or Damion.
When I got to the last step, I looked into the living room and saw the back of a woman with long blond, almost white, hair. She was looking at the picture of me and Nick, stroking it.
"Put the picture down, and turn around slowly. She looked up from the picture. She put it down and turned slowly toward me like I said. I gasped when I saw her. She had three scars, scars that must have been VERY deep when they were made, across her face. That wasn't what shocked me. She was…me.
