I had found my other half, my better half. And I officially was going to start showing her that every day.

EPILOGUE

Meri

“Thank you again for all that you have done,” Reesa said, shaking Ryker’s hand. “You helped me stay focused for all those speeches, and the material you created, had been spot on.”

“I was glad to be of help, but really, there wasn’t anyone who could do what you have here in Tabiq, and with the number of votes you received, the people obviously know that too,” Ryker replied.

“Guess I am, and I better get started. Five years go by too quickly.”

Finn said, “Let’s concentrate on the next six months. We have the baby's room to get ready and a country that will want to celebrate the birth of our son with us.”

“You’re having a boy? Why didn’t you tell me?” I asked.

Finn laughed. “Hey, I had to be the first to know something, don’t you think?”

I shrugged. “I guess. But I do miss being her confidante.”

“Don’t worry. I hear how much you two are on the phone. I’m sure you still know a lot more than I do,” Finn shook his head.

Ryker chuckled and added, “I know that feeling, Finn.”

I thought that was hilarious because I heard him on the phone talking to his brothers, and I swear they talk more than we ladies do. “Just so the two of you know, Reesa and I are talking about the wedding plans. She is my sounding board for all the different ideas I have. It’s hard to plan two weddings.” We had decided to have the first one in the US and another here in Tabiq.

“You don’t sound upset about it,” Ryker teased.

Smiling, I said, “Not one bit. And I even recruited your brother's help. Bennett already said that we can haveoursuite for the entire month when we get married.”

“Your suite?” Reesa asked.

I nodded. “We always get the same suite.”

Ryker said, “I told Bennett that they should remove the number twenty-one and just put our names on the door.”

“I am not sure about that. Ryker, mean it seems that twenty-one is your lucky number,” Finn joked.

He wrapped an arm around my waist and said, “I must agree with Finn because it brought us together.”

“That wasn’t luck. That was fate,” I said.

“So, the fact that our house number in Boston is twenty-one is just a coincidence?” Ryker asked.

He had a valid point too. “Okay. So maybe twenty-one is our lucky number.”

“I think so. We’re even getting married on the twenty-first,” Ryker reminded me.

Reesa chuckled. “I think you two areluckythatfateintervened and brought you together.”

Finn shook his head. “And this is why she wins all our disagreements. Now if the two of you will excuse us, I want to get my wife home. It’s been a long day, and I’d like it if we could do a little celebrating her victory alone.”

Once they were gone Ryker pulled me closer and said, “I think Finn is right.”

“About the arguments?”

“No. About getting out of here and going home to celebrate,” he said.

“I think it’s a wonderful idea. What are we celebrating?” I asked.

“Does it matter?” he replied.

Shaking my head, I said, “I think we should celebrate that we don’t have anything to celebrate.”

“Perfect Another night making magic in suite twenty-one. Maybe we can celebrate it a couple of times tonight,” he winked.

Linking my arm in his, I replied, “I already planned on it.”
