Now let my brother go," Blossom said, sticking her tongue between the space in her teeth. Harlow opened her mouth to shoot back a comment, but quickly closed it and let go of Vince when Gore entered. Blossom sat up straighter, fixing her top, then battled her lashes at him. Harlow watched her act, then snorted. "You are not going to look any better doing all of that."

Brine clung to the wind and tampered the scent of burning peat moss from their dying fire. Relaxed, Kaida took in the lattice arch just outside their circle, which led to the extravagant gardens beginning to bloom. Vines were turning green and buds forming on the groundcover. The gems hanging in various spots caught the moonlight. Ceara tapped Kaida's arm from the chair beside her. "How has it been going with Brady? What do you guys do when you get together?"

"You… You two…" I raised my hand, which was intertwined with my boyfriend's, and smiled. "This is my boyfriend." Benjamin closed his eyes, then forced out a pained, bitter smile. "Ah… Hello," he greeted. Then, he turned and walked away. I looked at his slightly hunched back and was momentarily at a loss for words. My boyfriend didn't ask me anything. He simply squeezed my hand a little tighter. That was the last time I ever saw Benjamin. After that, I became busy. I founded my own jewelry brand—specializing in delicate, one-of-a-kind pieces. There was no mass production, only unique designs.

And just like that, without speaking further they both knew what's next. The garden was blooming again. After years of storms, fire, and shadow, the roses had returned—bright and unburdened, as though they too had waited for this moment. Petals of crimson, ivory, and soft blush danced on the morning breeze as sunlight filtered through the ancient archway of flowering vines where Damon and Juliette now stood. Juliette reached out and brushed her fingers across the same rose bush she’d leaned into on the day of their first kiss. Her fingertips trembled.

Qri glanced briefly at Emma's expression, gently asking. "A pot of Sea Blossoms." The weather was warm, perfect for flowers to bloom. It wasn't surprising. Emma frowned, glancing at Luther, who had led in someone carrying the Sea Blossom. At a glance, she knew it was a masterpiece. The Sea Blossom flowers were starting to bloom, a vibrant shade of red resembling lipstick. Most were already in full bloom, petals intermingling gracefully, creating a beautiful contrast of shades. The backdrop of the leaves was exquisite, too, with a light and refined green complementing the red perfectly. It was as if the red was floating over the green background, creating an indescribably enchanting scene.

The fragrant scent of blooming flowers wafted through the air, creating a serene ambiance that was both calming and invigorating. As we strolled along the garden paths, the gentle rustling of leaves and the occasional chirping of crickets provided a soothing backdrop to our thoughts. Emily's determination was palpable, her resolve like a beacon guiding her forward. I admired her strength and unwavering spirit, knowing that she was on a mission that meant so much to her. "Brianna," she said, breaking the silence as we reached a stone bench nestled beneath a blooming rose bush. "Thank you for being here with me."

Liam continued, "Today, we're going to transform the palace garden into a place of enchantment. I want every corner of it to reflect the beauty that Bloom brings to my life." With that, he divided them into teams, each responsible for a specific aspect of the garden's decoration. Some were tasked with arranging vibrant flowers in elegant vases, while others hung delicate lanterns from tree branches, ensuring the garden would glow with a soft, romantic light. Liam, with a clear vision in mind, went out to the town to find the perfect dress for Bloom. He knew her style and taste well, and he was determined to make this surprise date a truly unforgettable experience.

The town was bustling with activity, the streets filled with locals and tourists eager to soak up the mild weather and the charm that only a coastal town like Seabreeze could offer. For Claire and Ethan, the season symbolized not just the renewal of nature, but also the blooming of their own dreams.

Stone cracked like eggshells. The vessel reeled back, hit with a power it couldn’t simulate unity. For the first time, it didn’t adapt. It stumbled. It fell. And moonfire hummed warm against my bones, whispering like it recognized the alignment. Bridge. Core. Storm. Three pieces. One pattern. Not the goddess’s. Yours. My breath caught. “Ares…” I whispered. “Clara… it’s not trying to merge us.” Clara blinked. “Then what the hell is it doing?”

After soothing both our families, Edward and I had just settled into the bridal suite for a moment of peace when an unexpected visitor showed up. Alfred and Becky burst in, dragging Trevin with them, and blurted out urgently, "Ms. Lawrence, Trevin just got a bit mixed up. We know we've spoiled him rotten, but deep down, he's still got eyes only for you! And… and he was trying to save someone. Can't you cut him some slack?" I was perched on Edward's hip, looking at them with a mix of amusement and contempt. "I'm a married woman, Mr. Hoffman. Are you really trying to wedge yourself into this as the homewrecker?"
