Mick’s grin returned and he asked a question of his own. “Are you up for one more adventure?”
Epilogue
Seven months later
“I can’t believe we finally made it to the Bahamas,” Ali declared as she and Mick stepped onto the balcony of their suite. Their entire suite was a spacious one bedroom, with a spa-style bathroom, and a small kitchen off the living area. Everything was high-end and beautiful. It’d be the last time in a while that they could afford something so nice, but they’d saved up their money especially for this trip ever since fleeing Michigan together.
It’d been months and Mick was still avoiding the Council. Apparently they were the unforgiving type. But he seemed confident that they’d be okay as long as he never ran into certain witches face-to-face. Apparently the whole idea of keeping real names a secret ran deep. Even though his parents had been close to a Councilman, Mick swore they’d never revealed their real surname. Meaning traveling as Mick Darringer was safe so long as she never traveled as Allison Drake.
And, they’d decided, if she was going to travel as Allison Darrigner then it was high time they made it official.
To that end they’d mutually agreed it only appropriate that they finally make a trip to the Bahamas, the original destination of the cruise ship that had brought them together. But they’d had to wait a while, since it would be assumed that they might make a return trip sooner than later. And though the Salty Sweet Euphoria was no longer sailing, its burgeoning reputation too damaged by the disappearance of so many passengers, Mick and Ali had chosen to fly in this time around. They could only hope that Boris had never made it all the way to the Bahamas.
“Are you ready for today?” Mick whispered in her ear as his arm came around her waist.
Tingling chills danced up her back and Ali smiled. “Oh, I’m more than ready. I’ve been waiting for this day for seven months now.”
Mick chuckled and spun her into him for a long, wet kiss. His tongue delved into her mouth and stroked hers until she was all but climbing him. She buried her fingers in his thick brown hair and arched dramatically into him, assuring him that his little tease was working even as she returned it.
The kiss broke with one of his hands on her ass and one of her legs looped around his.
“We could always go tomorrow,” Mick suggested, his voice thick.
Ali swatted his arm and lowered her leg. “Oh no, buster. You don’t get out of it that easy. You’ll just have to wait until tonight.”
He grinned, his green eyes dancing. “Trust me, I’m very eager for tonight.”
Allison rolled her eyes. “I’m sure you are.” She eased out of his arms and gave his chest a push. “Go get dressed and we might just make it to the chapel on time.”
“Can’t wait to marry me, huh?” Mick teased.
“As a matter of fact,” Allison replied, fingering the engagement ring he’d given her four months earlier, “I really can’t.”
“Then you’d better get your dress on, baby,” Mick said with a smile. “So I can tear it off you in a few hours.”
Allison laughed him off the balcony and all the way into the bathroom. But her body tingled at the promise even as her heart fluttered at what would happen first. In just a few short hours she wouldn’t be traveling as Allison Darringer. She would be Allison Darringer. And she didn’t know everything that the future held for them beyond their vows, but she knew they would find out together. That was enough for her.
