The Complete Box Set: Saving Her
Page 91
I wink and walk out. All is as it should be. No cameras. My family is here. I’m going to marry Sam. The one person who saw me as an individual versus a product, and made me earn every ounce our love.
Epilogue (Alex):
Dusty and Jazmine walked Sam down the aisle. It may not be traditional and all that crap, but it was perfect. Dusty was honestly the cutest thing ever. I mean Jazmine looked like a princess, and I adore that kid. Dusty, however, oh my God. He kept this stern expression on his face as he walked Sam down, but I could tell he was so touched to be involved in their family in that way. It was also cute because he kept fixing Sam’s dress and giving her pats on the back. I swear if Sam hadn’t adopted him I would have.
When Sam walked down the aisle I almost cried. Like I almost lost it. Rex laughed at me.
“Are you crying?” he asked with a laugh when he heard me sniffle.
I glared at him and turned away, which made him laugh harder. If I opened my mouth, yeah, I would’ve cried. So many memories came to mind as I watched my best friend get married. I remembered the unorganized smartass that showed up on my doorstep when I was looking for a roommate. I remembered her terror when she found out she was pregnant. I remembered finding out she was involved with the celebrity Logan Prescott. I remembered her in the hospital. I remembered when she tried to kill herself. I remembered when she got kidnapped for me. I remembered all of that, and now here she was getting her much deserved the happy ending. It was almost too much for my little heart to take.
Sam and Logan thought of the best honeymoon spot. They are flying back to Nashville and renting a house that overlooks their lake. Honestly, so fucking cute! It was Logan’s idea, which made it all the cuter. He could afford to take her anywhere, but he thought of the place that held the most meaning. He knows Sam could really care less about fancy things.
Jazmine and Dusty are staying with Ms. Arnette while their away. I offered, but I am in Missouri. That wouldn’t work. Dana would have offered, but yeah, she’s in Missouri too and… Gunner and kids. That’s a no.
Dana and I have become even better friends since we live relatively close to each other now. Rex is pretty busy with the boys, and I got a job at a rehab in town. I work the front desk. I’m not going to lie. It’s hard for me to figure out what I want to do with my life. It’s hard to be ambitious. I’ve been in fight or flight mode for so long that I’ve never given a second thought to my future. Now that everything's calm I’m a bit little lost, but it’s okay. Dana figured her life out. I can figure mine out too... one day. Dana is officially in school to become a therapist, which is perfect for her. Gunner is super supportive, which is really sweet. He’s not a shrink type of guy, but he believes in her and I like that.
That’s it really. I’m just hoping for normality from here on out. No more stories. Sam visiting me. Dana and I visiting Sam. Stupid soccer games and dates and careers. That’s all I want now. That’s all any of us want.
Love.
Life.
Safety.
We all just want to be safe. It's never just been about the safety of our bodies. No. It’s about the safety of our hearts and minds. We all finally have that. Finally.
We are all SAFE.

Author Notes
Well guys. It’s done. Their stories are told. I hope they touched you like they did me. This series was a bit of a different style of writing than is typical for me. Far more emotional and less suspenseful. I hope you enjoyed it. I probably won’t write anything like this again. Their stories were just ones I had to tell. You have no idea how grateful I am you read these stories.
I wanted to touch on something else as well. This series deals with a lot of heavy issues. Really heavy issues. If you’ve been through any of the things these characters have I am so deeply sorry. Know that, whether you have been through this stuff or not, there are so many ways you can help people who are struggling. You just have to do your research. If it touched you or inspired you in any way I hope you can find the right avenue to help out!
On a positive note! There will be a spin off series much different than this one, possibly dealing with two complicated European assassins. Just wait. These books are killer. Literally ;)
