“Would you look at that?” The Scarab pointed up at the sky as he and the Viper made their way back to their caravans with their wives. Tariq followed his gaze. There hung Thiadra and Pamos, together once again, shining a deep, regal gold.
Tariq couldn’t help but smile up at the heavens. “It would seem the Jackal and his princess will be richly blessed.”
“We have all been richly blessed,” Sabine said, poking Tariq in the ribs. He grinned at her.
“Indeed, my flower.”
“Look!” Trianna exclaimed, gasping as she continued to gaze at the moons. “I don’t believe it!”
The Scarab laughed so loud, it seemed to echo across the tent city. The Viper arched a brow and chuckled himself. “It would seem the new Cobra and his wife are blessed as well!”
There, before their eyes, the lovers in the night sky changed their colors from gold to a deep purple.
“The new Cobra Prince didn’t waste any time!” Qadir said, continuing to grin. “A man after my own heart.”
Trianna slapped his shoulder but laughed right along with him.
Tariq’s heart was light as he gazed at his friends and pulled his wife close.
Tonight, the gods were smiling.
