Epilogue
Five years later...
“Elsa, don't run so fast. You will get hurt. Come and change your dress. Guests will be here soon.” An eight-year-old Teddy ran behind a three-year-old girl. She was just the replica of her mother Sarah except for the eyes. She got her father's green eyes.
“Mama, Elsa is not listening to me.” Teddy called Sarah.
Sarah came and caught Elsa. She handed over Elsa to Bella and said to Teddy,
“Bella will take care of Elsa. Come with mama.”
She took him to his room.
“My Teddy bear is a big boy now. You are the most precious gift from God. Today I want to tell you the most important truth of your life. I know it's going to hurt you but I can't hide it from you anymore. Today is your birthday and mine too. But today is also another significant day. Today is your mother's death anniversary.” Sarah said,
“What do you mean mama?” Teddy asked as if he was about to cry.
“I'm not your biological mother. I didn't give birth to you but you are my son. This is Emma, your mother.” Sarah showed him a photograph.
“She gave her life to save you. I got you the same night and you became my reason to live. You are my son and you will always be my priority. I could have hidden this truth from you but I don't want your mother's sacrifice to go in vain. She loved you so much. I know you are a strong boy and will always cherish your mother's sacrifice.” Sarah said,
“Mama, thank you for loving me so much. I know you love me more than anyone else in this world. Thank you for telling me that I have two mothers. Now go and get ready. Guests will be here soon.” Teddy sends Sarah to her room.
He already knew about his biological mother. Sarah and Milano always send Teddy to William's house once a month. He did hear Mr and Mrs Williams talking about the way his mother died. Sarah and Milano always send Teddy to William's house once a month. It was almost a year ago but he didn't tell anyone. He had always wondered why mama and daddy asked him to call Mr and Mrs Williams as nana and nanny. That day he got the answer. From that day on he loved his grandparents and gave them more respect.
The grand celebration of mama and son's birthday began as soon as the guests arrived. The whole Coleman family came to wish them both well. Harry met his mate before the banquet ended on the same day of his crowning. They recently became parents to a baby boy. Aunt Rachel and Uncle Herman supported Ileana in reviving from her past life. She was so dearly loved by everyone that she soon came out of her shell. She recently met her mate who was the Alpha of a French pack. They met at a meeting of alphas from different parts of the world. She had accompanied her brother. She is now learning French. Aunt Charlotte and her family also came for the birthday party. All her children are now settled down with their families. So she visits Sarah whenever she gets time.
Sarah and her daughter Elsa wore identical red gowns while Milano and Teddy twinned in their black suits. Even after being nine months pregnant, Mary and Liam had made all the arrangements. Mary has taught Teddy lots of magic along with Sarah to prepare him as the future Alpha of the nightfall pack.
The celebrations began with the entry of Sarah and Milano with their kids. Everyone had brought gifts for both mama and son
Sarah even invited Uncle Jacob and Aunt Martha from the countryside and they came to attend the party. After the cake cutting Teddy took the microphone and said,
“Daddy, you said that I can ask you anything as my birthday present.” Milano agreed with a smile.
“Then I want you to welcome mama to the Raymond family.” Teddy said,
“She is already a part of the Raymond family.” Milano said,
“No, she is still a Coleman. Marry her and make her a Raymond.”
Yes, they are not yet married because Sarah didn't want to take the position of his late wife until Teddy knew about his biological mother. Hearing Teddy's words, Milano looked at Sarah and she smiled at him indicating that she had already told Teddy about Emma.
With a smile, Milano took out a box from his pocket and knelt down in front of Sarah. It was actually a birthday present but now it's going to be her proposal ring.
“Sarah, my love, you have been there through all the thick and thin for the past five years. The day I recognized you as my mate, I became complete. Teddy, our son, definitely was the binding factor between us and I am proud to be his daddy. He is my blood but you gave him life. I fell in love with you even before your identity as Princess Jovita Coleman came to light. Today, with the permission of my boy and my family I would like to ask you, are you ready to become a Raymond forever? Princess Jovita Coleman, will you marry me?”
Sarah pulled Teddy for a hug before looking at Milano. She has been waiting for this moment since the day she let him mark her. Now it's happening just because of her son. Even though she is the Luna of the pack, she has the feeling of an outsider just because of her name. She is happy because it's happening in front of her whole family. Sarah turned to Milano who was still on his knees and said,
“Yes, I will marry you because you are my Teddy bear’s daddy.”
Milano got up and put the ring on her finger. Then took her into a breathtaking kiss in front of their children. Teddy closed his eyes and covered Elsa’s eyes with his hands.
The End.
