Katherine's POV:

Everything was going as planned. The venue was our place, the planetarium, and the theme was beige and gold. Lilies were forbidden from the place this time, and instead, we had different types and colours of roses. The wedding and the reception were both in the same place, outdoors and under the sky, as the number of people invited were little.

We decided to have a secluded and intimate wedding this time, since everyone had already seen our wedding. Only close people to us attended, and it was the perfect way to begin our almost new start. 

For the wedding dress, I chose the same one as before as I was the one who chose it and fell in love with it, and opted for a different hairstyle and different accessories to change the overall look a bit. The wedding was my choice this time so I decided to go with the wedding tradition this time of something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a silver sixpence.

My choice of something borrowed was just like last time, the diamond necklace along with its matching studs that mum borrowed me for the tradition on my first wedding. As simple as it may sounds, my something old was my wedding dress as I have wore it before, while my something new was a custom made bracelet with both my initials and Nate's. We both wanted to re-wear our wedding bands, so the bracelet seemed like the perfect idea.

As nerve-wrecking as it was for me, it was also exciting for my choice of something blue, a royal blue garter. Something classic that brides do all the time, yet it was something new to me. No one would see it except for Nate, but till after the wedding. It wasn't something I'd usually think of doing so that was why it was nerve wrecking for me, but Nate was written in my stars and that's why I wanted to start this part of a relationship with him.  

The silver sixpence was put in my heel last minute, chosen from the year Nate was born in, just because I considered him as my good luck. And now I was ready to go, but for some reason I couldn't move. I was stuck in my place, looking at my own reflection, and even though I didn't get the wedding jitters because I knew Nate was the one for me, I was getting them now.

But it felt more like nervousness. I was nervous because the one walking me down the isle this time isn't my father, instead it was Nate's. My father was long gone to me the moment he sold me into an arranged marriage, while Nate's father grew on both Nate and I. He proved his words to us, divorcing his wife and working on earning Nate's forgiveness.

I was nervous because I didn't know what's yet to come for Nate and I, now that we were starting fresh. But I knew something, and that I was certain I wanted to marry Nate. Spend the rest of my life with him and live our happily ever after.

And that was more than enough for me to leave my reflection, along with all my doubts and fears, and head to the point were I am supposed to walk to the cause of my happiness. 

My father-in-law was already in his place, waiting for my arrival, and as he sees me walk towards him, a bright smile appears on his face. Once the music starts, hand in hand we start walking down the aisle, and unlike the last time, nothing felt forced, it didn't feel like I was being dragged down the alter, and I wasn't about to faint. I was willing and happy. 

It all went smooth, from saying our vows with words we actually meant this time, to dancing our first dance in our almost new page. Time moved in a blink of an eye, but that didn't mean we didn't get to enjoy it, seize it, as well as shed a few happy tears over it.

In no time we were boarding the royal family's private jet, heading to God knows where since Nate wouldn't tell me up till now. We were tangled in each other's arms, seated on the sofa that would easily fit four of us, yet we only occupied the corner of it. I was comfortably laying my head on Nate's chest, soothed by the even beating of his heart, while Nate was playing with my hair, brushing it with his hand, with his other arm wrapped around my waist, keeping me close to him.

"Aren't you going to tell me where we're going now that we are on the plane?" I asked, still in the same position.

"You'll find out when we reach there" I could feel him smiling through his words, teasing me a bit. I faked a soft groan.

"This isn't fair love"

"How about a hint then?" I nodded in reply.

"It's a secluded place, just the two of us there being ourselves and enjoying our time together"

It wasn't enough for me to know the place, but I nodded knowing I won't get any more out of him. Still I smiled, because I knew the place we were going to was going to give me what I wanted, privacy with my husband.

Nate and I spent the rest of the flight in the same position, talking all the time about everything we could think of, including our future plans, that we felt time pass in a blink of an eye. I could see water surrounding all sides of the land while we were landing and I figured we're on an Island. Still it didn't look anything like secluded, the Island was huge in fact.

"Where are we right now?" I asked once we got off the plane.

"Welcome to the Maldives" he extended his hands pointing at the Island.

"Nate, this doesn't sound anything like your hint"  I was confused, but still took a glance at the surrounding.

"This is just a stop, don't worry love, you will like it"

I nodded, still breath taken by my surrounding. Everything was beautiful and even though we lived on an Island, this was a whole new level. I couldn't see much since the car never stopped until we reached the other end of the Island. We then took a speedboat and were taken to a much smaller Island, but wasn't that far from the main Island.

We didn't stop at the Island, instead we circled it and stopped at a house that was built in water, a bit distant from the Island. A two story house, that had more glass walls than actual walls, revealing all the shades of blue surrounding it. There were similar houses close to it, but the one we stopped at was the farthest of them all, in a way much more private.

Our honeymoon went in bliss and it felt like a slice of heaven. For once we were free, no one knew who we were so we used that to our advantage and went crazy. From sunbathing and swimming in the ocean, to experimenting in the kitchen and using all the other rooms.

By the time half of our honeymoon had passed, which felt like no time to us, Nate suggested we'd start touring the hotel, slowly expanding until we've explored the main island, claiming that I'd get bored of him.

"What do you think about doing something different today? Maybe explore this little Island and then go to the main Island, I mean I wouldn't want you to remember our wedding as boring since all you did is spend the whole time with me alone"

"I could never think that way and you want to now why? Because spending a second with someone could suffocate me from boredom rather than spending hours with you alone. I wouldn't want to do anything other than spend all the time possible with you, never think otherwise"

He grinned at me, moving closer, and gave me a small peck before taking my hand and walking us to our room to change and start our tour.

I could remember it all as if it were yesterday, and as I snuggle myself into the arms of my sleeping husband, I thank God for everything and especially for what I have now. The two most important things in my life.

Falling asleep in Nate's arms was the easiest thing I could ever do because in the blink of an eye, I'd be starting my first dream. Waking up was the hard part. Being so warm and comfortable as warm hands settle around me, while enjoying the dream so much as if it were real, so waking me up was like forcefully dragging me away from it all.

It's been almost a month since our honeymoon now and my symptoms started last week. It repeated every day and that's when I started to suspect there was something and this wasn't just a flu, even though I made Nate believe it was.

I went to the doctor yesterday and confirmed that I was three weeks pregnant, but no one knew yet.

"Is it what I think it is doctor?" I grinned hearing myself ask this question.

"Well that depends what are you thinking of?" she was teasing me, but I just knew it. Call it a mother instinct.

"I'm pregnant, aren't I?"

"Indeed you are, as a matter of fact, you are three weeks pregnant. Congratulations your majesty"

Just thinking of this news brought a wide smile on my face, I wonder though what Nate's reaction would be? Would he faint from the unexpected news? Or would he react just like me and already be expecting this surprise?

Either way I would still surprise him with it, tonight in fact, since I'm so eager to see his reaction. I made it seem as if I just wanted some time alone with him, so I suggested we'd have dinner tonight at our special place. Nate of course said yes, being unable to say no to me and being just as eager as I am to spend some time together. 

We drove in a comfortable silence, our fingers tangled together all the way until we reached our destination. Since I wanted this to be a memorable occasion, I dressed a bit formally and asked Nate to do the same. He was confused since he didn't get any reason from me, but nonetheless, did as I said.

I wore a red floor length fitted dress, my hair was let down in soft curls, and I had a deep red shade lipstick. Nate on the other hand, wore a black tux, looking just as dashing as he'd always be, maybe a bit more tonight.

I was struggling a bit with the dress as we got off the car and walked towards the planetarium. Nate was walking behind me, leaving a bit space between us fearing that he would step on the end of my dress, and maybe sensing my struggle as well.

It seemed like the perfect opportunity to surprise him, so I took advantage of it. I stopped waking and turned to face Nate, smiling lightly at him. He was just as confused as he was when I asked him to dress formally, yet he patiently waited for me to talk.

I lifted my dress a bit revealing to him the flat sandals I had on, then looked back at him "The dress is dragging on the floor as I didn't wear heels since I can't for a while, so could you help me with it?"

He nodded confused, lifting the hem of my dress a bit as he continued to walk behind me, but this time closer.

"Since when don't you wear heels and why can't you wear them? Do they hurt your feet that bad?" I could hear the concern in his voice as he asked. I stopped walking and turned to face him again.

"My feet are fine, it's because of another reason" I laid my hand on my still flat stomach. His eyes widened a couple of seconds after taking the news and he gasped.

"You're preg-" and my first guess came true, he fainted.

I chuckled a bit and keeled next to him, unworried, knowing that this was only the aftermath of the shock. I tapped my fingers lightly against his cheek and shook him until he regained consciousness. 

He quickly got off the floor, back on his feet and went back to his shocked state. I slowly got off the floor, and chuckled again. He was terrible at responding to surprises, yet somehow appeared adorable to me.

"You're pregnant?" he asked once again.

I smiled and nodded.

"I'm going to be a father?"

I nodded again.

"You're pregnant?"

He didn't let me nod once again as he swept me off my feet and twirled me until I was dizzy, still I was laughing all the time. My legs were shaky once I was back on my feet and I held onto Nate strongly, fearing that I would continue to the ground. He gave me a guilty smile and held me until the unpleasant feeling was gone.

"You know, if you told me this news a year ago, I probably would've ran away from the fear. But now, this feels like a dream come true. I was lucky enough to get you as my wife, and now that I'm having a baby with you, I feel like the luckiest man in the world. You are my happiness and our son is the cherry on top"

"I guess that makes me the luckiest woman in the world, I love you my rich snob"

"And I love you my queen"

The End

...............................................

Can I cry now? Because now the story is really over. 

This book was a long journey, but a good one. A lot of times I thought I'd never finish it, since it took me a while and since I'm not really good at commitments that take long time, especially when they're not an obligation, but now looking back, I'm really glad I did. So many emotions were put in this book. When I'm sad, I'd let all my emotions out through a chapter and same thing for when I'm happy.

Now I know this book isn't perfect and it probably needs a lot of editing, which I'm terrible at if I'm being honest, yet it still means so much to me. 

I probably said too much, so let me say one last thing. I want to thank everyone who supported me and my book, and I really hope you enjoyed it guys.

Love,

Alex
