chapter 122
Alana’s point of view.
Spring had arrived, painting the forest with its vibrant colors, and we found ourselves amidst a cluster of quaint cabins. Alec and I had our wedding plans sorted, a bit quicker than some might expect, but our guest list was intimate. Among them were Killian, Izabel, my folks, Ryan, Sean, Naomi, and her plus one, Lucas. Even Luke and Andrea got the invite, along with Luke's kids and grandkids.
Alec, true to form, didn't fuss much; he simply craved a triple chocolate cake, fairy lights, and some greenery. I suggested an enchanted forest wedding, and he fell head over heels for the idea.
We flew everyone in for the occasion, and amidst the hustle, they decided to keep Alec and me apart. The buildup to this day has been a mix of joy and stress. Alec sold me back his 50% of the studio, and now I had a bunch of new movies. Feeling ambitious, I took on three projects at once. Luckily, Ryan and Izabel took charge of the bachelorette party, and it turned out to be a blast but one that required a lot of time to plan which wasn’t my job, my friends did just fine.
Now, I found myself sneaking out of the cabin I shared with my mom to meet Alec in the woods. We couldn't stand being apart. Waiting outside, Alec caught me as I leaped out of the window, grinning widely.
"Thought you might bail on me," he whispered, lifting me effortlessly as we ventured into the woods.
"Missed me that much already?" I teased, tracing his chest with my fingers before leaning in to kiss him.
"You have no idea. Can't wait to have you all to myself on our honeymoon." Alec winked.
"Isn't it bad luck to see the bride before the wedding?" I teased. He stopped, and I glanced around. We were far from the cabins, near a creek. Little lights twinkled around, and a blanket was laid out with a few snacks.
"We're practically married already, and the big day's tomorrow, not tonight," Alec said, settling me on the blanket, his gaze intense. "Now, let me cherish you," he murmured, his hand trailing beneath my dress, discovering I'd come prepared, bare underneath.
“Are you finally gonna fuck me, Mr. Fisher?" I grinned, tracing the bulge in his pants, and inviting him closer. He sure wanted this as much as I did.
"Whatever happened to foreplay and just kissing?" Alec chuckled, leaning in to kiss my neck softly, cautious not to leave any marks.
“We don’t have much time, I need to go get my beauty sleep,” I winked and let out a soft moan when I felt his cock nudging my entrance and slowly entering me.
“As you command my love, you seem to like using my body,” Alec thrusts faster and deeper into me.
“And your money too,” I winked and wrapped my legs around him, pulling him closer.
Alec let out a soft moan and started focusing on his thrust, his thumb teasing my clit and I bit my hand to muffle my moans. The pleasure of his cock constantly hitting my g-spot paired with the trace shape on my clit sent me over the moon. I felt the coil of pleasure snap and his name left my lips as a loud moan.
Alec’s fingers tightened on my hips as he yanked me closer and leaned over, burying his face in my neck as he came.
“I can’t wait to marry you again,” I whispered and caressed his face.
“I can’t wait either,” Alec laughed.

The day of our wedding unfolded like a dream. Stepping into the bridal suite felt like entering a magical realm. The transformation was beyond imagination—a fairy princess emerged, adorned with delicate flowers in perfectly curled hair and a makeup look that emanated warmth and enchantment. My dress was the epitome of perfection, a floral corset intricately detailed with tiny diamonds, the flowing skirt adorned with delicate floral accents along the edges. It was the quintessential attire for our whimsical enchanted forest celebration.
The ceremony proceeded in the usual way. As I walked down the aisle, Alec’s smile appeared almost permanent, his eyes fixated on me as I made my way to him. The officiator’s words blended into a soft murmur until it was time for us to exchange our heartfelt vows.
"Alana, I vow to stand by you, support you, and share in all your joys and challenges. You are my forever, my love, my joy, and my heart's desire," Alec promised.
“Alec, I promise to listen, to comfort you, and to stand with you through life's adventures. With you, I've found my home,” I vowed, expressing my heartfelt sentiments.
As we slid the rings onto each other’s fingers, sealing our commitment, the rest of the day unfolded flawlessly. The dinner, meticulously prepared by Luke and Andrea, exceeded all expectations. The flavors danced on our tongues, and I couldn’t help but notice my dad sneaking in for seconds, a sign of his utter delight in the feast.
After Killian’s heartfelt speech, the time arrived for me to share my news. It was something that had kept an uncontainable grin on my face since I first heard it. The timing seemed almost too perfect, and I couldn’t believe the moment of it all. Tapping the fork against the glass, I beckoned everyone’s attention.
"Um, wow, all eyes on me," I started nervously, gathering my thoughts as I looked at our gathered friends and family. Taking a deep breath, I reminded myself that these were my cherished people and that this announcement should flow naturally among them.
“You’ve got this,” Alec’s whisper reassured me, his hand covering mine on the table. Bless him; he had no clue about my revelation, yet he backed me up wholeheartedly. As always, he stood by me, and I couldn’t help but love him even more for it.
The announcement echoed through the room, and a rush of emotions ensued—some cheered, some gasped, and my mother’s eyes welled up with tears of joy. Alec's reaction was immediate; he leaped from his seat, his hands cradling my face.
"Is this for real?" Alec’s voice quivered, his eyes locking onto mine with an intensity that sent a shiver down my spine.
“Yes, the doctor confirmed it this morning,” I affirmed, a soft smile playing on my lips as I felt Alec’s trembling hands against my cheeks.
His gaze softened, overwhelmed with emotion. “I love you more than words can say,” Alec declared, drawing me into a passionate kiss, and enveloping me in the warmth of his embrace.
“This is beyond incredible!” My mother hurried over, tears of happiness streaming down her cheeks as she embraced me tightly, her joy palpable in the air.
“Just imagine all the adorable little clothes!” Izabel exclaimed, her excitement filling the room. She wisely kept her distance, knowing my mother’s embrace was unyielding—I wasn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Amidst the flurry of congratulations, the evening continued flawlessly. The cake, a masterpiece of whimsy and taste, was savored, and our first dance marked a moment of shared joy and intimacy. As the night wound down, Alec and I embarked on a short journey to the cabin that held precious memories from our first honeymoon—a cozy retreat he'd lovingly gifted me.
The drive was filled with anticipation, and upon arrival, we unloaded our supplies. Alec, ever the protective partner, insisted on carrying everything except the food and my phone. I locked the cabin doors behind us, turning to take in the familiar warmth that instantly eased any lingering tension.
“I’m over the moon about this,” Alec murmured, drawing me close for a tender kiss. His arms wrapped around me in a gentle embrace, his touch filled with a mixture of excitement and tenderness. “Did you have any inkling about this news?”
“I’d been feeling off lately and decided to see the doctor. But even with a missed period, I was too nervous to take the store test,” I admitted, tracing the outline of Alec’s jaw with gentle fingers.
“This timing is absolutely perfect,” Alec mused. “I promise to love and cherish both you and our child for an eternity,” he vowed, sealing his lifelong commitment with a heartfelt kiss as if reaffirming his love in every delicate touch.
