Epue

"And dont you worry. I can handle what happens to you," I say. "I dont think Levi would like cuffs on his bride." I smile, teasing them a bit and I say, "I'll go ahead and leave you all."

Levi

I nod and reach into my pocket and slip a ring onto Erika's finger. "So people will know that YOU are mine. I do love you, Erika," I say to her, squeezing her hand still. "Once you get better, I promise that I will never abandon you or let you die of a broken heart."

ERIKA

"You all act like I am miraculously over my anger at Ephraim and his wife and that place" I say to him

"but you'll get over it with guidance and learning to trust" Belial says walking in "Lucifer might not be the kind to check, or maybe he will, but I will. Especially after I saw Levi snagging that ring out earlier" he winks and pats his little brother on the head.

I blush a bit, getting red and thinking of the things I did to Belial earlier that day. It already seemed like years ago with all that happened today. I close my eyes and listen to Belial and Levi talking a bit, something about Levi will take me back to the saloon and let me sleep in his room and maybe help me adjust to the place and my new 'home-town' so he's calling it. I admit he's moving fast for my taste but we'll see.

For now I just fall asleep for the night, knowing Levi will be there still when I wake up.

When I DID wake up it was to a huge ruckus outside my room at the medics. From the voices I am pretty sure it is Levi and Lucifer getting into it.

Levi

Lucifer and I got into a fight. He rarely brings guns so I know I wont get shot. He hands me my ass pretty good but I get him a few times myself.

"Son of a bitch!" i say, "You hurt her I SWEAR you'll pay for it!"

I see him smirk and laugh. "You got guts. Alright, I'll let you marry her with no complications. Dont forget Miss Willow's funeral atleast. NEVER forget that," he says cryptically as he walks out. I swear, he's so fucking weird.

ERIKA'S EPILOGUE

It would of taken me a few days to get out of the medics on my own but Levi helped me and did most of the work. I wanted to go to my motel but he said it was better I stayed at the saloon. He wanted me to stay there, adjust, try looking at it with a less heavy heart. I know when I went in with Levi's help that Eirika was not impressed at all. The other girls kept to themselves away from me for a bit too. Lianda and Ephraim welcomed me though so the others started responding eventually. In time I healed and started walking around better on my own again. Eirika sure was a pretty damn good shot, so close to my heart that I should of been ended but fate spared me...with the help of Epue.

We did of course go to the funerals. Willow, Set...River too. As it turned out she hung herself in the county jail. We all know it was heartbreak, either from murdering or from losing Set or both. All three were buried and given proper services. Her death ontop of all the rest really made Epue resolved to change the place around completely. Thane got off free. His dad Seth is the mayor of the town and friends with the sheriff. Turns out Epue and Lia KNEW Seth and didn't realize it. His wife was a former saloon girl in the days of my dad being here and Kaellan being shot. Turns out she changed her image and haircolor a bit and made herself unrecognizable to put those days behind her.

It took me a good six months to start calling Epue by that name and not his real full one. I had refused to use a 'nickname' on someone I hated. But in those six months I was healing, spending time talking to Levi alot, getting to know eachother. He really did turn into a wonderful lover. Sometimes the place probably still sounded like a saloon. I chuckle to myself about that. I did start talking to Lia and Epue more, becoming friendly and working it all out.

Right after the whole 'incident' Lianda, Ephraim, Levi, Eirika and Dani started making the preparations to change the saloon into a Bed & Breakfast. Lia and Eirika, with help from Dani, did most of the picking out of wallpapers and paints, decor. I had to admit those three had wonderful taste. The place when they started to tear it apart and redo it started seeming ALOT less sleazy and like a saloon...and more like a home that people could enjoy. Cleaner, more color, more 'freshness' I said to them. They made sure all the girls got to put some contributions in to make the place more 'home' to all of them. Some of the town folk weren't happy about the saloon changing but they found new places to do thier thing.

Along with the saloon other changes were made too. Kiyah stayed and is going to be a maid now, surprisingly she applied to do some cleaning and housework. Cleaning rooms after guests and travellers used them for a night of sleep and rest. Dianna and Amy wanted to stay too. They decided to serve in the breakfast and dining area. We knew we'd feed people at all hours like a restaurant so we'd always need servers. Dani stayed on too, wanting to serve as well, taking a night shift while Amy and Dianna chose mornings and afternoons. Miracle disappeared off, I've seen her around town with Tade though. I think he finally got the courage to ask her out and take her away. None of us minded, they seem so sweet together when they are around town.
Some of the men even joined in. There needed to be someone willing to help Kiyah clean the place and even do laundry. Some of them applied to help in the kitchen with a new head cook the Epue found, his name is Darius. Really good hard working guy. Levi even took a liking to him, the two became friends. It definately became more like a family.

When the place opened up again with it's completed renovations it became an instant success. We kept finding ourselves busy and booked up for nights on end. I chose to do alot of paperwork with Epue, booking in guests and the likes. Levi became a part owner with Epue and when he started getting the profit he found us a home to buy and make our own.

It was needed since about a month after the mess I created and being shot I found out I was pregnant. I know it was from the very first time me and Levi were together. When the others found out it created quite a stir. It was that fact coming out that Eirika actually started talking to me again. She felt awful about realizing she shot a pregnant woman. Not like any of us could of known or expected it.

Amy and Dimitri and Kiyah and Caleb got married that year quickly too. They stayed working with us though. Dimitri stayed playing on the piano in quiet tones for the guests at any hour they requested music or certain songs, or more loudly when the place was empty to draw customers in. Caleb helped Kiyah with the cleaning, laundry and he turned out to be a great chef too, bringing in new food ideas from the east for us to serve. Made us more of a hit. Dianna is still with Aric but he has his own job on the other end of town. Jonah also bounces around, he helps his parents and volunteers time here too. Currently him and Eirika are deep in wedding planning too.

I sit this morning, a year later, and watch. Everyone is so happy, smiling, getting along, working more honestly for thier livings. I smile. I learned to drop my anger and hatred and accept this place as a second home. Levi comes and sits next to me and I smile and hand him our almost three month old daughter. We named her Eva. Turns out Lucifer and Belial became overprotective uncles which gives me and Levi good laughs some days. We made Epue and Lianda her 'god-parents' basically since I have no parents and neither did Levi anymore. We thought Lucifer would give us shit about it, but he took it well actually.

In a couple months me and Levi will officially tie the knot. I wanted to wait til the pregnancy was over and Levi respected it. I see Levi get up and go outside with Eva, she likes it on the front porch/stairs of the place now, get some sunlight and play in the dirt there. I look up

'D&L Bed and Breakfast'. Thats the sign above the place now. It stands for Dark and Livingston. I smile and sit beside Levi, leaning into his arms and watch Eva play. Epue and Lia see us and come out too, sitting with us and watching. They are as close as I have to parents now. Epue changed the place to have better for his family and I gained one of my own too. It was perfect.
