~ A few hundred years later ~
⊰ Adelaide POV ⊱
I sat at my desk signing the final documents for Dad while I mentally prepared myself for the upcoming meeting. I sighed softly before rubbing my eyes when they became indistinct.
I felt relieved as I sent off with one of my angels the last file of documents that Dad needed. I stood up stretching before sighing as the tension disappeared from my back. I don't know how much I spent on the papers but I need to relax.
I opened the balcony door before opening my sashes and stepping into the air. I was glad that my dad office was on the outskirts of heaven where I had peace and quiet not like in the center like my brothers.
I opened a portal leading me to the Garden of Eden, flew between the trees gently soaking my feet in the lake below me before landing not far from the cliff.
It's been more than 785 years since I arrived back home, 10 when I solemnly took my seat again as the Archangel of Balance and Harmony.
It's been 688 years since I faked my death, 785 years since I visited the world when I was born again, 50 years since Charlotte and Vaggie became queens of hell. It's been 780 years since Lucifer asked Alastor to marry him.
Which resulted in 200 years of each of my brothers finding partners and being married. I am now the proud aunt and great aunt of 27 children.
Each of my brothers had three kids each our family in truth has grown. Even dad started seeing a very nice Angel for a few weeks.
I managed to get Heir rally Potter Black name could still, however, they did not have my angelic nature.
I took all the signs about traveling between worlds as well as cast a jinx on those who knew about it. I looked beyond the sunset sighing softly watching the beautiful sunset before I felt a presence behind me
'' I could sense that I would find you here '' said dad sitting down next to me. He placed a plate of fruit and two glasses of wine between us
'' I needed to relax a little from all the papirology as well as the chaos that is happening '' I said
'' What could you my love. The princess of Heaven and my only daughter is getting married in two months to the Angel who won her heart '' he said
'' He saucers all our standards, has done all the challenges thrown by your brothers. He has back bone sides, he's also stubborn like you, polite, kind, charming and not afraid to make you angry '' he said with a small laugh towards the end
'' You know that most fathers would be 100% against their daughters getting married '' I said while taking a bite of a strawberry
'' Nicholas has proven his worth so I don't have too many worries '' he said
'' Besides, I've vetted him thoroughly, I won't make that second mistake '' he muttered under his breath remembering Hermes.
Hermes was an angel I met 600 years ago. We thought he was the perfect partner for me.
He was always a help to me and my siblings as well as did not let me overwork myself. He helped me with everything as well as my brothers when he could.
We all thought he would be my Happy Ending. I would have married him those 595 la ago if Emily had not discovered his true nature.
She recorded him when he was talking to his friends about how he now has me in his grasp. He boasted that he had found a ritual that would make me his servant and bond me to him. Dad won't be able to do anything about it if he doesn't want to lose me.
Emily showed it to Dad when he was with Michael and Lucifer who were furious when they finished watching the video. I can say that Hermes' execution was public and in truth cruel.
It was also a lesson to everyone what can happen if people start messing with the Divine Family. Nicholas was a pleasant surprise for me that I ran into 300 years ago.
Surprisingly I didn't recognize the 5,000 Seraphim of Protection and Care. Nicholas is a very good friend of Emily's and became her right hand when she became the Head Seraphim. We became friends after knowing each other for a few months.
What I didn't expect was that Nicholas was slowly destroying the walls I had put around my heart. I could feel that he wanted me and not who I was and what he could get out of the ego.
It took years before he asked me to be a girlfriend before he spent 100 years to assure my family that he was a good match for me. The day he proposed to me was one of the most beautiful and romantic days of my life
'' The last wedding of the first generation of royal children '' I said looking at the ring Nicholas gave me
'' The beginning of your happy ending '' he said
'' This is pure imagination '' I said before he sighed and I knew what he would do
Dad: Hold your breath
Make a wish
Count to three
Come with me and you'll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you'll see
Into your imagination
Me: We'll begin with a spin
Trav'ling in the world of my creation
What we'll see will defy

'' Know that I will always be here for you just like your brothers. It doesn't matter if you are 800,000 or 2,000,000 years old. You will always be my little harmony '' said dad
'' And you Father will always be the most important man in her life '' said a male voice
'' Nicholas '' I said looking back
'' What are you doing here? '' I asked standing up
'' I wanted to take you where you could rest but it seems Father has warned me '' he replied bowing respectfully to Dad
'' Nothing like that Nicholas in two months you will be my son too '' said Dad smiling at the two of us
'' I have to get back to my duties. Why don't you take advantage of this moment of peace and quiet for yourselves '' he said before disappearing into the white light leaving the fruit and wine with us. We both sat down where I had previously sat with Dad before Nicholas fed me a strawberry
'' How is my fiancé doing '' he asked
'' Tired but happy to spend restful time with her fiancé '' I replied feeding him a grape
'' How do you feel knowing that in two months we will be husband and wife? '' he asked
'' A little nervous, but it's not because I'm afraid to marry you. I know you won't hurt me, but more because I never expected to get married " I said
" I understand and I'm nervous myself, but I know our day is going to be amazing " he said
" And I believe you with all my heart " I replied with a smile before giving him a quick kiss, taking away the strawberry he wanted to bite
'' Hey '' he said laughing a little
'' Mine '' I said
'' I love you '' he said
'' I love you harder '' I replied
'' Impossible '' he added before pulling me into a hard and passionate kiss
