Right, the time has come! The Epilogue... ENJOY!


Epilogue

6 Months later…

The arms and top of the dress had a naked effect, sheer fabric with small pieces of fabric almost looking like little flowers all over. The bust dipped down just enough to show some cleavage. Marking my waist, the skirt were full as it was falling towards the floor. The flower effect slowly faded from my waist down, doing the same form the bottom leaving the mid part of the skirt in just a sheer white chiffon.

To add to the regal effect, a long train in style of the sheer flower effect, floated out at least a few yards behind me. The sleeves were three quarter, at my elbow the fabric grew longer blending into the long train of my dress.

It was truly unique, truly a Tasha Master piece, and it was my wedding dress.

With a strong red lip and eyeliner we have kept it simple. My hair was in soft waves, Tasha hand braided pieces of hair, creating one of the most beautiful looks I think I have ever had. Small white flowers were pinned in where my hair had been pinned back. I was wearing my mamas emerald earrings, I couldn't think of wearing anything different And my beautiful ring of course.

The Tiara of choice is the same my mother wore. It had small green gems incorporated but the rest was all diamonds. Tasha had twisted a few strands of hair to keep the tiara in place.

Looking at my reflection in the mirror I had to fight back a tear, firstly because I cried on my last wedding day, I wouldn't do it this time. Only this time, I was marrying out of Happiness. That and I think Tasha would actually kill me if I ruined my makeup.

Taking a deep breath I could see Tasha appear behind me. Funnily enough she was already crying. Snickering I turned towards her. "I thought we agreed no tears?"

Waving her hand in front of her face she was shaking her head, "You're just so damn beautiful, I'm so happy I finally got to dress you properly for your wedding"

I couldn't help but laughing at the way she had made it all about her. "Me too" I said before looking back at my reflection.

I was in the dressing room attached to the cathedral. I knew everyone had almost arrived and in less then half an hour I would walk down the isle towards the rest of my life and I couldn't be happier.

There was a knock on the door. "It's Papa" I heard from the other side. Smiling I said, "One minute!"

Tasha helped me fix my dress so I was facing the door before she opened it. On the other side was Papa and Oscar dressed to the T in their uniforms. I could hear them both gasp a the sight of me, grinning I held me arms out so they could get a good view, "What do you think?"

Papa came over taking both my hands, "You are always beautiful my darling, but I think this is truly one of your best moments" Cupping my face he continued, "You're a vision, just like your mother"

Smiling the door suddenly opened. Looking over there was no other than Olena Belikov. I chuckled at the look on her face, "My beautiful darling" she said teary eyed with a ridiculous smile on her face, "You look Gorgeous!" She exclaimed.

"What happened to your manners Olena? Haven't you heard of knocking?" Papa joked as she was coming closer. She waved him off as she didn't have time for his nonsense.

Stopping in front of me she eyed me head to toe, still tears in her eyes, "I can't believe this day has finally come, I couldn't have asked for a more stunning daughter in law"

"They're not married yet" Oscar said elbowing Papa. I shot them both a look which had them both looking the other way. I had ordered strongly NO guns at this wedding, I doubted anything would happen but you couldn't be too sure.

"No Vail?" Olena asked curiously.

"Vail's are for innocent brides" Oscar teased, Papa hit him in the back of his head. I couldn't help but laugh.

"My mother didn't wear one" I said to answer Olena's question, "Neither will I"

Grinning Olena nodded, "You will make a fine Queen my darling" Then she turned to Oscar and Papa, "Now hurry along, we need to sit so we can start!" She took Oscar in arm as papa chuckled. He was walking me down the Isle after all.

Walking down the hall, the doors into the church were now closed, next time they would open were my cue to enter.

"How are you feeling?" Papa asked, squeezing my hand.

"A bit nervous" I smiled sighing, "But very excited at the same time"

"Me too" He grinned. Tasha came over with my bouquet of flowers. It was lilies and small white roses, The bouquet was cascading down slightly with inputs of greens.

As we were ready in front of the big doors, I knew the music would start any minute. Turning towards Papa I smiled, "I Love you Papa and thank you for being so good to me"

Grinning he squeezed my hand, "I love you too my dear, Forever and always"

The music started, I have had the unusually request to have them play the same song we first danced to, instead of a traditional organ piece. The sweet strings and piano filled the room as the double doors came open.

The church was filled with people and the Isle seemed ridiculously long when you are standing at the end of it.

Slowly starting to make our way down the isle there were so many familiar faces. I could see Sydney, her newly wed husband and her family, I recognised people sitting in the council in Russia, to my surprise they smiled at me and giving me a friendly nod. I smiled in return.

My eyes fell onto Karolina Belikov, who were sitting with her sister and their partners, I gave her a small smile. I was not going to be the one to hold any sort of grudge, I was for once going to be the bigger person, and to my surprise she smiled in return.

Viktoria was sitting on the other side of her and her smile was huge as she mouthed, "Beautiful"

Grinning in return I sent her a wink.

Meeting my fathers gaze I grinned as he squeezed my hand. Looking down at the floor I took a calming deep breath before looking up, knowing I was getting into view of Dimitri.

My eyes found their way to him straight away.

He was smiling, grinning! Even his eyes were smiling more than I think I have ever seen before. He was wearing a all black uniform with his countries army colours accentuated in. All his medals were proudly hanging on his chest and I had told him to wear his hair out. I didn't want formal Dimitri, I wanted my Dimitri.

And he looked absolutely gorgeous with his hair out, hanging to his shoulders. Next to him stood no other than Oscar, to my surprise, along side Olena.

But seeing him standing there, knowing that the smile was for me and me only, was one of the most beautiful and special moments I think we've ever had. Apart from all the amazing sex we're having at the moment, I know it's not the time to think of it but damn, that man can do things to me!

Shaking my head I couldn't help but blushing slightly as I felt so many eyes on me, almost as if they knew I was thinking naughty things. Meeting Dimitri's eyes I could see him chuckle. Sometimes I was sure he could read my mind, but that's impossible, right?

Reaching the bottom of the steps, Dimitri waiting for me at the top, I turned to Papa who I could swear looked like he was tearing up. Snickering I reached a hand up and placed it on his cheek. "I love you" I mouthed to him and his face broke out into a grin.

The arch bishop spoke, "Who gives away this bride today?"

Papa cleared his throat, "I do" giving me one last smile he turned towards Dimitri who stood next to the arch bishop. "I, Ibrahim Mazur, give this bride to you Dimitri Belikov, Promise me to love and cherish and look over my daughter for me?"

Lifting my hand to pass it to Dimitri, he stepped down, his eyes were filled with bliss as his eyes never left mine,"With my life"

In that moment I knew he would never fail me. In that moment I knew that this was the happiest day of my life.

!

After spending an hour driving through the town, waving and greeting the people, we returned to the palace.

We were greeted by an ocean of guests, Dimitri was first out, turning to help me out I squealed as he lifted me up. It had turned into something that was our thing, spinning me around once, he put me down to meet my lips for a kiss.

Grinning against his lips I moved an arm around his shoulders as the crowd clapped and hollered. Breaking away I laughed leaning my head back before Dimitri brought me back up again and we met the crowd. Hugging my father, Oscar, Olena crying as she hugged us both at the same time. Even his sisters gave me a hug. Maybe I had been wrong about them forever disliking me, people can change.

As we all gathered inside in the ballroom, raising our glasses in a toast papa made for us, Dimitri was leading me out onto the dance floor for our first dance.

Taking me in his arms, we were swiftly moving across the floor. Sighing in contempt I looked up to meet his gaze. "We made it" I smiled resting my head on his chest.

Chuckling he kissed the top of my head before resting against it, "No injuries nor objections" his lips came to my ear as he murmured, "Mrs Belikov"

Grinning I lifted my head to meet him, "I couldn't be happier right now Mr Belikov. I love you!"

"I love you too" he murmured as he reached down to capture my lips. We kissed so much lately, I didn't even care if it was inappropriate.

He was now mine and I was forever his.

Forever.


How do we feel? What was is like? Is that what you thought i was going to be?

I am leaving it very open, there might be a follow up, I'm not sure. I haven't decided. That's why I want to leave it open, so if I want to pick it up and do a sequel there is definitely a possibility!

What do you think? Any wishes or ideas for the next story?
