Jessica sat on the bed and stared off into space deep in thought. So much was said and revealed in the past fifteen minutes. She had some decisions to make. Getting up she did not get dressed and head downstairs as Aedan requested. Instead, she took a long shower. Next, she did her hair and makeup before finally getting dressed and heading out of their bedroom. Not making eye contact as she descended the marble stairs Jessica just began to speak. “My mother says everyone you love should get a one time pass to sound like an arse and not have it held against them. Today is that day for you. I will keep Garvis death off the record but you need to know something. I did not marry you for the money or the glitz or the glamor. I married you because I love you. I am quite happy though that you took our first day of being married to point out that if I would be leaving this marriage it would be with the same cardboard box filled with my things as the day I entered it. Wanna know a secret though,” she asked rhetorically moving towards the replicator. “The only thing I ever wanted from you was your love. Apparently, you only want obedience. I will do it this time but don’t ever threaten me again with losing the material things in my life. You can keep your penthouse and your business and your Empire. I have no doubt you can replace me with some yes girl that will fall in line when you snap your fingers. Thank you for making that crystal clear. I’m quite positive I won’t forget it nor have the need for you to ever repeat it. I will make sure I am gone before you ever had to remind me again of how precarious my station is with you,” Jessica’s tone was icy. “Now let’s try to salvage the first day of the rest of our lives with a few forced smiles as I call my parent’s and to inform them about just how happy we are,” she said moving towards the communication console, “or do I need permission to use the comm’s too. I can place the call in my office if you don’t want me to use your unit. “

From behind her in a corner of the penthouse she could not see there was a small cough as Aedan looked at her, a small smirk on his face. “I am not sure that will be needed my love, we can just talk to them here. They were so excited when I told them I made sure they were here for you. Though they weren’t aware of ALL the details but I am sure we can explain the rest as they get to meet their granddaughter.” Aedan said, and as Jessica turned she would noticed it was far more than just her mom and dad. Behind her was four men and a woman standing, all dressed properly and looking quite concerned as they did.

“Oh, yes there is also a wedding planner, cake, dress… mmmmm… what do you do again?” he said looking over at the woman next to her mom. “What was… Heather right?”

The woman looked nervous, with her mousy figure she nodded as she pressed her glasses up. “I am the photographer sir.” she said eyes darting about.

“Yes… yes, sorry Heather my bad. So, love as I was saying I brought them here and I wanted to ensure your parents that while we were officially married, that they would never loose a chance to see their daughter walk down the aisle. We can iron out the other things later, you don’t need to worry pumpkin the rest can surely wait another time.” he said as he walked over, placing his hand firmly on her side as he pulled her in close, his grip[ tight and firm on her arm as he leaned in.

“And you are never really replaceable… or one I would ever want to try and do so to. I love you, but don’t confuse me for a weak willed man.” he said softly, for her ears only as he leaned in and kissed her deeply before spinning her around as he looked at the people in the room, his eyes focusing as he looked them all. Aedan had those icy blue eyes that seemed to force almost everyone to cower, yet the smile could just as easily melt them all.
