Glen sat staring at Rev for several beats. He couldn’t have been more stunned if lightning had just struck and paralyzed his tongue.
“Catch?”
“Yes, sir?”
“Are you with me?”
Glen took a deep breath. “I am. It’s just… That’s the last thing I guess I was expecting to hear when I reported. I was pretty sure I was being fired.”
“Well, you’re not. So what’s your answer?”
“The only thing that keeps me from saying yes on the spot is that I promised myself I would never make another career move without taking Rosie into consideration. I need to run it by her.”
“Send her a text. Time’s wasting.”
“Yes, sir.”
Glen walked past the admin’s office into the hallway outside the Sovereign’s suite.
Glen: Can you come to the hallway outside the Sovereign’s office?
Within three seconds of sending the text, Rosie was standing in front of him holding her phone.
He smiled. “I think I’ve actually gotten used to that.”
“What’s up?”
She could see that he was trying not to smile. “I just got offered the Sovereign’s job. Here. At Jefferson Unit,” he whispered.
Rosie squealed with excitement for him and leapt into his arms, legs straddling his waist.
“Madam,” he said, “this is conduct unbecoming a Sovereign’s wife.”
“Well then, if you want me to behave, you better hurry up and make me a Sovereign’s wife.”
“Deal.” He grinned, looking years younger than when she’d first seen him on her return to Jefferson Unit. He’d been damaged and scarred, but his core was indomitable.
Rev heard the muffled squeal outside his offices and smiled, thinking sometimes things do turn out the way they’re supposed to.
Glen and Rosie were married at Jefferson Unit at two in the afternoon so that all active duty knights could attend. Sovereign Reverence Farthing officiated. He was empowered to marry, although he’d never done it before and thought it a fitting end to an illustrious career.
The Lady Elora Laiken, not to be outdone, went into labor as soon as the groom kissed the bride. Beautiful twin girls were delivered in the infirmary, with perfectly shaped elven ears and a smattering of white blond hair. Rammel, never ashamed to emote, shed tears of joy as he posed for photos holding one in each arm.
He also vowed to tell the new Sovereign that he was retiring from vampire hunting as soon as Glen returned from his honeymoon. It was looking as if there would always be more vampire, but more time to spend with his growing family could not be manufactured.
Glen and Rosie took a two week honeymoon to Paris. Among other things they revisited the places they’d seen while looking for Falcon and discovered that Paris was even more magical when seen through the eyes of lovers. One of the things Glen enjoyed most was inviting Baka and Heaven to dinner at Le Train Bleu and forcing them to watch he and Rosie engage in hot make-out sessions between every course.
The newlyweds were offered the Charlemagne suite at Jeanne d’Arc Unit, but chose instead to take the top floor at the Auberge du Jeu de Paume in Chantilly. Glen was well-armed with pills so that transportation was never a problem.
They agreed that their next vacation would be a cross-dimensional tour of exotic experiences unavailable from the corner travel or tourist agency.
After three weeks of intensive dinner conversations with Monq, Falcon was cleared to return to work.
He stopped by the Operations Office on the way to mess one day to request travel home for his mother’s surprise birthday party being arranged by his older brother. When he stepped inside, there was a young woman standing, facing the door as she read something lying in front of her on the counter while her auburn bangs obscured most of her face.
She looked up with clear amber-colored eyes so exotic they could only be called arresting and flashed a brilliant smile. “Hello. Can I help you?”
Falcon dragged his eyes away as fast as humanly possible, looked around nervously, and frowned. Without making eye contact, he said, “Where’s Farnsworth?”
“Retired. Didn’t you hear? I’m Gretchen Galen from the San Francisco office. I work here now. You can call me Great. Short for Gretchen.”
She waited for Falcon to tell her his name and state his business, but he did neither. He just walked out, leaving her wondering if it was something she’d said.
“I was just kidding about the ‘great’ thing,” she called after him, but he’d already disappeared.
