=Epilogue: The Wedding Night=

Amy had fallen asleep in the Lexis Shadow was driving during their journey to the place where they would spend their honeymoon. She had been busy all day long, she became terribly exhausted. Shadow had noticed that she was sleeping and was sure to keep quiet as long as Amy was slumbering. Then, they reached their destination which gave the ebony hedgehog an excuse to awaken his sleeping mate.

"Rose?" he called out softly while gently shaking her shoulder. "We're here."

Amy let out a moan and fluttered her eyes open. The city they arrived in was very Italian like. The sakura hedgehog knew immediately where they were.

"Wow, Shadow! Spagonia?" she marveled.

"Sonic made suggestion." Shadow explained.

Amy got excited. She hadn't been to Spagonia in ages. The Lexis pulled into the main palace parking garage and went into the building. When they got to the sixth floor, Shadow suddenly scooped Amy up and carried her bridal style all the way to their suite. Amy gave a light giggle when he picked her up and clung to him as he carried her. When they entered the suit, the crimson-splashed male placed his new bride on the king-sized bed.

"I'm going to retrieve our luggage, so I'll be back shortly." he quietly told her.

Amy gave a nod and then a yawn. A few minutes later, Shadow returned with an attendant and along with Amy's things. Then the two went back out to get the ebony hedgehog's own things. Amy pulled her overnight bag into the large bathroom and began stripping herself of her wedding gown. It was hard at first, but she managed to get it off of her. The cherry-pink female placed her dress in a garment bag with a hanger. Amy opened her overnight bag that Rouge had packed for her. The first thing that Amy found inside, was the lingerie that the ivory bat had gotten her during her Bridal Shower.

'Seriously, I'm going to kill Rouge when I get back.' the sakura hedgehog furiously thought.

"Rose?"

Shadow had returned from retrieving their entire luggage from the Lexis.

"In here!" Amy called out from the bathroom.

"Are you alright?"

"Yes, just getting ready for bed."

Amy looked down at the black lingerie in thought. Her mind kept going back and forth between wearing it or not. Finally, she decided to just bite the bullet and wear the damn thing. But how would Shadow react to it? Shyly and slowly, the sakura hedgehog stepped back into the room. Shadow was sitting on the edge of the bed clad in boxers and working the television set when she came out. He immediately noticed her in the partially revealing attire. Amy's face blushed madly red and she could feel it heat up. She quickly looked away to avert eye contact with Shadow.

"So, um...h-how many channels do we get?" Amy stammered, trying to make conversation.

Instead of answering, Shadow simply got up and approached the cherry-pink female. He knew she was feeling quite embarrassed of herself, being in a lingerie. The attire to him, actually did her justice.

"You look beautiful." Shadow whispered into his wife's ear.

Amy's ears went flat against her head as she made a whine and buried her face into the ebony hedgehog's tuft of fur. Shadow made a grin and wrapped his arms around her trembling form, nuzzling her neck. Then they shared an intense lip-lock in which Shadow dug his hand into Amy's soft pink quills while his other hand pressed against her back. The young flower emitted a muffled moan into the kiss. Shadow scooped her up and carried her to the bed while they were still kissing. They finally parted and Shadow began licking and nipping at her neck while Amy was busy trying to catch her breath. She let out a gasp when he bit her and then a little squeak when he grinded his body against hers. Amy tensed up after realizing where this would be going. She was still a virgin and never went this far with Shadow. The cherry-pink female was worried if he would like her performance or not. Shadow saw that she was getting a bit uncomfortable with his advances.

"If this is too fast..." he began.

"No, it's not that." Amy softly protested. "It's just...I've never...

Shadow hushed her with a gentle kiss to which Amy returned the gesture.

"My intentions are still honorable." he told her. "We don't have to do this."

Amy slightly shook her head and pulled her husband back down for another lip lock. Shadow took this as her wanting to consummate their relationship at last. He reached behind back and unhooked her bra. Amy blushed madly again when she realized that she was topless and initially covered her torso, making Shadow stop his advances instantly.

"...please be gentle." Amy whispered in a small voice.

"Of course, little one." the crimson-splashed male replied before licking her cheek.

He gently took her hands away and began nuzzling and embracing her bust. Amy let out a series of moans, gasps, and squeaks at Shadow's touch. This encouraged him to go on as things got a little more heat. Amy couldn't believe that this was happening to her. She never realized that it would feel this good. Then Shadow pulled off her underwear, leaving her fully exposed to him. Amy turned her head away in embarrassment at first, but Shadow placed his hand under the sakura hedgehog's chin and gently pulled her face towards his.

"You're absolutely beautiful." he whispered.

Tears began welling up in Amy's eyes as she smiled. Shadow pulled her into a lip lock after wiping her tears away before they fell. Then the midnight clad male positioned himself and eased himself inside the young flower. Amy squinted and groaned at the pressure. Her husband pulled her another lip lock to ease any pain she was feeling. Then he took that opportunity to break the barriers between them. Amy let out a little muffled scream as she squeezed her eyes shut. Shadow paused and held her to allow her to adjust to him. He gently licked her face to soften the great pain that suddenly erupted in her lower abdomen. A few minutes later and after taking a few deep breaths, Amy bumped her hips against Shadow's to signal that she was ready to proceed. It started out slow at first and eventually got a little faster. Small beads of sweat formed on them as a result of the heat created from the friction. Finally, Amy felt a coolness emit inside her as they both climaxed. By this time, she was totally exhausted and about ready to simply konk out from it. Shadow gently rolled over and pulled his mate carefully onto his chest and started to stroke her quills. Amy shivered a bit from the slightly cold air, prompting Shadow to pull the covers over her bare form. He then nuzzled her neck.

"Are you feeling alright, little one?" the ebony hedgehog asked softly.

"Mmmmhmmm." Amy murmured tiredly, snuggling into his chest.

Shadow smiled as she nestled into his arms and nuzzled her neck.

"Get some sleep." he told her.

Amy gave a little nod.

"I love you, Shadow." she whispered.

"I love you too, Rose." Shadow softly replied. "Now and forever."
