Liara gasped, looking at the arrangement. Though she was the one who had explained everything to Raphael that she wanted at the wedding, she never thought that it would turn out to be this beautiful. The moment she reached there, the music stopped, and Steve started singing Perfect by Ed Sheeran, one of his hidden talents.
But this wasn’t in her plan. She wondered if this was his wedding gift or if Theodore had asked him to sing at our wedding.
[I found a love, for me
Darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me]
Brandon squeezed her hand, reminding her that it was time to walk her down the aisle. Eleazer came near Liara, watching her look so beautiful in white.
"You look so beautiful, Mom," he said, watching her from top to bottom. Liara bit her inner cheeks not to think about Lestat, who was also looking at her from top to bottom before he died.
"Thank you, El." She whispered, patting his cheek. He was growing too fast, and all his features were like Lestat's. She wouldn’t be surprised if he looked 2000% like him. Eleazer stood on the other side to walk her down the aisle, holding her hand. Liara looked down and smiled at his innocence.
‘I really hope that you will always be innocent like this, El,’ she thought and then started walking. She watched her relatives, family members, and friends look at her. They looked happy for her, and many of them had tears in their eyes. She passed them with a big smile, trying her best not to cry.
In the end, her eyes met Theodore’s grey eyes. She was surprised to see that he had gotten a haircut. For a change, he looked breathtaking even with short hair. But she knew he was fond of his long hair, so if he wanted he could keep long hair. Her eyes moved to the person who was standing behind him, Alaric.
Shifting her eyes back to her man, she observed that his eyes never left her as she walked toward him. It looked like they were about to reach the final destination of their lives.
"I can hear your heartbeats." Alaric teased.
"Well, wait for my turn." Theodore retorted. He didn’t miss noticing the tension between him and Moana. At the same time, he didn’t miss how Alaric was checking on Moana tonight. She looked different from other days, but he couldn’t tell that she was looking beautiful because only one woman deserved that compliment in his eyes.
Theodore had no words to describe how beautiful Liara looked. He still remembers when his eyes landed on her for the first time, about five years ago. Red hair, green eyes, and glasses at her nose—now she had white hair, blue eyes, and well, she now wears glasses only when she has to study for a long time or while using a laptop for a long time.
He was hoping that her blue eyes and white hair were a couple of years' thing.
They couldn't help but recall the same thing. Theodore recalled how she had followed his scent for her book, while Liara recalled how he had unwillingly protected her from Alaric. Theodore recalled how she had refused to reject him and had decided to give mate bond a chance. Not just that she had given him a beautiful name. Liara recalled how he was adamant to get rid of her and wanted to run away from her, but she never gave up hope. Theodore recalled how he was running away from the truth that he had started loving her even though every single part of him wanted to hate her because she was a werewolf.
