Here's the epilogue to this wild ride of a story.
Kiernan and I were given special permission to attend certain events as they happened in the mortal world. As spirits, we were kinda white and ghostly looking, but that was fine.
The first time we were allowed to visit was after Mika gave birth. Orianne had been wrong, and she had a little baby brother named Sage, who Orianne didn't like at first, at least until she realized that he probably wouldn't have been interested in her cars like she was had he been a girl. Ben was not happy about having another sibling, and moved out as soon as he could.
We were allowed to attend our daughter's first birthday, in which she managed to smear cake all over Jay's face.
We were allowed to attend my mother's wedding to Chelsey's father. They had met at a bookstore and fallen in love.
We attended Jay and Maddie's wedding, as well as their baby shower. I was happy that they had stayed together. And that Whitney would have another child her age in the family to grow up with, not that she didn't know Sage, as they visited the farm all the time. Their son was about two years younger than her. But things move more quickly when you're a demigod.
We attended Chelsey's wedding to a boy named Aaron from the high school we had all gone to. It took him awhile to understand the whole mythological world, but he accepted it. And he was really excited when they had a little son who showed signs of being able to use powers from being descended from Hecate.
And we also got to attend Lydia's wedding. She ended up marrying a woman she met through college. It ended in divorce, but they remained friends. They worked out a schedule to raise the little boy they had adopted. Lydia then went on to marry a boy she met at her job as a photographer. They had a son who absolutely adored his adopted older brother.
We also got to attend Cypress and Nikita's wedding. It took them until Whitney was five to realize they liked each other, and until she was seven to realize they loved each other. They got married when she was ten, and they had her be the flower girl. She loved it and the attention, but all of her cousins didn't like sitting around during the wedding. The moment it was over, they were all chasing each other around in the grass. Whitney even joined in, kicking off her sandals and holding up her skirt with her hands.
So, what did you think of this whole story? Was it any good? Did you get hit by the feels at all? I know I did, and I knew everything that was going to happen.
Thank you to anyone who has reviewed, followed, or favorited! You are not inclined to do any of those things if you do not wish, but it would be much appreciated! I send my love to all of you!
More Than What You May Think, Part II - More Than A Mortal is officially over! Look out for More Than A Girl, the next installment of the series! Summary and first chapter will go up on next Tuesday, a week from now. Posting schedule will be once a week, to allot more time for my working on the series.
