Looking into the mirror, Mara couldn't help but laugh at the third time she'd prepared to be married. After spending the night in Luke's warm embrace, Leia and Allie had graciously offered to help Mara get ready. Mara was also keenly aware of the bodyguards outside of her room to protect her against some unseen danger. Luke's doing, she was sure.
"Beautiful." Leia smiled, as she adjusted the veil.
"Yes, certainly." Allie smiled. Despite Allie's own refusal to not help out at the wedding, Leia had managed to convince her it was for Mara. And Mara was glad that her friend had come, despite all their problems.
"Leia, Luke…he doesn't mind, does he? I just…I don't want anything interfering in our lives again." Mara said, her eyes staring at Leia's reflection.
"Are you kidding? Luke's thrilled. I've never seen him so happy Mara." Leia reassured her.
"Then why am I so nervous?" Mara grinned slightly. Leia laughed.
"You ready? We don't want to be late!"
"Of course." Mara whispered, checking her reflection again.
"May I come in?" A male voice called from outside.
"Of course Karrde." Leia smiled and let him in.
Karrde stared at Mara as she turned to meet his gaze. "Wow, Mara…" He whispered gently.
"Karrde, don't get mushy on me now!" Mara grinned and stepped down off the small platform to greet him.
"Do I have to give the bride away, or can I keep her for myself?" He laughed and took Mara's arm. "All ready sweetheart?"
"Yes, I guess I am." Mara said, moving with Karrde out the door.
"You look much calmer than I did when I was about to get married." Han laughed. Luke looked over at him and grinned.
"Yeah, well, I'm not marrying Leia."
"Good thing too. You sure about Mara, kid?" Han asked.
"Absolutely. There's never been anyone else for me." He smiled and checked his hair, fighting with it for control.
"You look fine, kid. Too calm though." Han laughed. Luke could only grin. "Well, its show time."
Luke could only nod, and take a few deep breaths. He was getting married!
The small church was filled with family and friends, and a few associates. It was beyond Luke how Leia had managed to fill the room with all these people, and had it so perfectly decorated. From the moment he'd entered the room, Luke was in shock. And as he waited at the altar for Mara to arrive, his knees quivered despite his best relaxation techniques. Suddenly, the music shifted tones, and Luke was shook out of his reverie. In the doorway, Leia began walking in and down the aisle. Luke smiled warmly at her and watched as she made her way to stand opposite Han. Then, he turned and saw Mara and Karrde start in. Luke was beyond words. He'd seen her in her wedding dress before, but she'd never looked so radiant. Karrde slowly walked her down the aisle and whispered something in her ear before stepping off to the side. Mara grinned at him, and made her way up the steps to stand beside him
"You look…amazing." He whispered gently. She smiled warmly at him.
"You look pretty good yourself."
"Dearly beloved…" The minister began. The two turned and looked at him. "We are gathered her today to join Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade in the bonds of holy Matrimony. Is there anyone in this room that objects to the two being wed?"
Mara and Luke couldn't help but hold their breath as they turned to look. The room was silent, until the door was flung open and a woman with long wavy hair came streaming in. The whole room turned to look at her.
"STOP!" She called out. "He can't marry her!"
Mara turned to look at Luke, who was in complete shock. His jaw was hanging open, and Mara almost fainted.
"Callista!"
