I had a half-hour before my mother and friends got here to help me get ready.

Garlands of flowers in white and deep fuchsia decorated the yard. The three-tier cake had been delivered.

I'd thought this day would never come, sure I'd be alone forever while the rest imprinted and found happiness—even if happiness came with a lot of drama. Lack of pain was all I asked.

Then gravity shifted for me.

Would I be here now if Sam hadn't left me, if I hadn't phased, if I hadn't been a leech bodyguard?

No.

It was so worth it.
