“I’ll take care of Lexi.” I stare into her eyes, knowing she sees the adoration and promise in mine. “She’ll never want for anything, especially not love. I’ll flood her with it, cherishing her every damn day.”

Her smile grows before she and I turn toward our parents. Our friends step closer, standing in unison with us.

“Our family is gathered around us.” I gesture toward my friends. “And the love of my life, the reason for my entire fucking existence, stands right here beside me.” I look down at Lexi, who beams up at me, love and radiance flowing from her like an ethereal light. “I have everything I need.”

My head turns to my father and Cynthia, my expression cold. “The two of you can go straight to hell.”

Epilogue

ALEXIS

The diamond shimmering on my ring finger as I fix the veil on my head captures my attention.

A smile curls my lips as memories of the proposal pop into my head. Evan proposed after he ravaged me in the corn maze while he was shirtless and wearing the Ghostface mask.

I knew it was him because he now sports a tattoo engraved on his chest. It’s a heart with bellissima written across it. My new favorite thing to run my fingers over whenever he’s shirtless.

I was terrified when he chased me into that section of the corn maze. Evan knows me so well that he instantly replaced the panic with pleasure.

It wasn’t long before I was focused solely on him, completely in the moment before he shoved me to my knees. I never thought I’d enjoy choking on a man’s dick as much as I do his.

Then he pulled me to my feet and dropped to his knees, worshiping my pussy until I was hoarse from screaming his name.

But it was when his cock was deep inside me that he tore off the mask, his charcoal eyes incinerating me with love and respect.

He slowed his thrusts, his kiss matching the rocking of his hips, before he said, “I’ve never loved anyone before you, bellissima. And I’ll never love anyone else. You’re it for me.”

Tears welled in my eyes. I was too emotional to say a word.

Then he grinned and said, “Well, except our kids, if we have any.” His sexy smirk indicated he’d prefer to have me all to himself.

“You’re my first and last.” I choked out, brimming with emotion. “My everything.”

He pounded me into oblivion until I screamed his name and orgasmed so many times I could barely walk afterward.

Evan helped me get dressed before he dropped to his knees, whipping out a velvet blue box.

Beneath a heavenly sky full of stars, he proposed. I can barely remember his heartfelt words, but the way he looked at me while he said them is engraved on my heart.

I said yes and threw myself in his arms, sobbing and clinging to him, before he could even get the ring on.

He carried me through the corn maze like he did the weekend before. Only this time, I wasn’t bleeding and broken.

This time, I was brimming with love and hope for our future together.

As we approached the maze entrance, the gang stood there—Trent, Sophia, Ryker, Devyn, Luca, Zayne, Jaxson, Nyx, Bentley, Skylar, and Londyn—holding a giant banner that said “Congratulations.”

I shook my head and laughed as they converged on us, throwing orange and black confetti.

Evan barely had time to set me on my feet before the girls descended, screaming and hugging me.

Pulling myself from my thoughts, I admire my reflection in the mirror. I look like a princess in my wedding dress.

There’s a knock on the door, and before I can yell for them to come in, Sophia, Devyn, Syklar, and Londyn pour into the room, clad in red bridesmaid gowns.

“Hey, gorgeous bride.” Sophia bounds over, wrapping her arms around me. “I’m so damn excited about this wedding.”

I laugh, returning her hug. “Me, too.”
