Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN NOTHING! The only thing I own is the story line, but the characters were used, which I totally don't own! I also borrowed ideas from various movies, anime, books, and friends' ideas. And nor do I own the Red Ninja characters.

A/N: Thank-you all who have my story and I hope you enjoy… since I needed help with this last bit… there is a lot of nonsense… but good though… so it may be a bit long, which is why I have put it into two chapters… hehe…

Also thanks to who have reviewed, and who are going to review… Those who have read my story and haven't reviewed, that's kool, but it would be nice to know what you think of my writing style… the idea… what ever… it's always nice to know that little stuff :)

From there on, the talking went on for another two hours and they retreated to slumber. But like that night and early morning, every other night for the rest of the week was the same. Except for the dress fittings sessions for Serenity with her bridesmaids; and the tux fitting sessions for Endymion and his best men.

"Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, OH MY GOODNESS!" Serenity breathed as Emily stood back to look at her masterpiece. Serenity was currently looking it to the full length mirror of herself. The gown that was chosen for her to wear thanks to Emily was extravagant; like not big or frilly, it was plain… but absolutely stunning, and the hair was amazing… and overall… she honestly looked like a real princess.

"If I may say so myself… but you look so much like your mother… it's not funny" Emily said with glassy eyes. "She would be so proud" she begun to cry.

"Emily" Serenity turned to her, "Thank-you sooo much. I probably wouldn't look half as good if you hadn't have been here for me" she smiled and gave her a hug.

"You're too kind" she smiled. "But we better be going and meet the others down stairs… I'm sure all the braids maids will be waiting to see how you look" she smiled.

"Yeah… but can I ask you a question first?"

"Sure? Anything fro you my dear?"

"What… how…" Serenity sighed, "what kind of woman was my mother? How do you remember her?"

Emily took a second to think, "Well… one thing is for sure" she looked at Serenity, "You look exactly like her… though your face us more rounded and your mother had a love heart face… but" she sighed, "She was kind, and her aura was always pleasant… and she never seemed to get angry. But unfortunately, your mother was also brought up to do what she was told and never have her own opinion. But you my dear, have inherited your fathers stubbornness, and have a mind of your own" she laughed. "And I'm sure, just like your mother, you will make your husband a very proud man" she smiled.

"Thank-you so much Emily" Serenity hugged her again, "To be honest, I have always looked at you as a mother figure… and I think you for always being there for me" her eyes too were going glassy.

"Hush, hush now. The bride can't cry just yet. You'll smudge your mascara and eyeliner… and make-up" Emily was stressing, trying to take her mind off the whole mushy crying scene.

Serenity rushed back to the mirror and made sure everything was still alright. But as she turned, she couldn't help but look at her full self again. It was like someone else was in the mirror.

She was wearing a pearl white satin dress that had golden circles around the top of the dress and sleeves. The sleeves were off the shoulder and were slightly puffed. Just under her breasts the dress has a small slightly thick ribbon that went around. Under the ribbon the rest of the dress flowed freely to the ground and the back had a small train. Even thought he dress was very plain, it was elegant, and Serenity's figure only made the dress all the more beautiful. Along with the dress she wore pearl white heels that had a golden circle on the top. She also wore a pearl bracelet on her left arm and necklace. Her hair was placed in two buns atop her head with her hair loosely curled as it flowed from the buns. Around the buns were also little pearl clips that secured them.

"Come now, we don't; want to be late" Emily said as she opened the door, gesturing for Serenity to hurry up.

She took one last look and left with Emily. Finally they reached the other girls that were already ready in their pearl white dresses, much like Serenity's, but there was no gold and the sleeves were actually straps and the front was a sweetheart neckline, and there was no train. They all wore the same jewelry, and all the braids maids had their hair in French rolls with lose bits curled to soften the affect.

"Oh Serenity, you look absolutely stunning" a red haired girl named Molly said. She was one of Serenity's best friends, and also her maid of honor.

"Thank-you Molly" she smiled. Then turned to the rest, "lets go" she said nervously.

"The carriage waits, I'll send for them to come to the door" A random person said as they ran outside for the Carriage to be brought closer.

When it did, all the girl; Serenity, Molly and two other brides maids hopped in and were on their way towards the temple where they were having their wedding. There was also another carriage that held Emily, and a few other people, just in case something went wrong, or there needed to be last minute touch ups on Serenity and the other girls.

When they pulled up towards the temple they were taken to a side entry away from the guests and led inside to a chamber where they were told to wait until everyone was inside and the guests were quiet and the groom and his men were out.

+-+-+-+-+- o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o -+-+-+-+-+

"So how do you feel?" Andrew asked as he walked up to Endymion.

"Nervous" he said nervously, "you?" he was playing with the cuffs of his suit. His suit was a frost grey suit. It included a pearl white long sleeved shirt, frost grey vest, jacket, and slacks. He was also wearing a tie that was a shade darker in the grey. They shoes were black and they wore little pearl roses as their cuff clips.

"Loving it! I have never seen you like this before… and it's funny" he admitted. The groom's men all wore the same suit as Endymion.

"Thanks drew" he laughed.

"Hey Chad, Ken, what do you guys think about Endymions… actions today?" Andrew asked the others.

"Weird… nervous… but I'm telling ya, you should be excited" Chad said as he walked over.

"Yeah man. You have a woman who loves you, and she was the one who asked you to be her King… so dude… if you have any worries about this wedding, don't…" Ken assured him.

"Yeah, I know… but what ever happened to last minute change of mind… what if she realises something…" Endymion stressed.

"Dude… if it helps, do you want me to ask for some liquor?" Andrew suggested, "cause honestly, your worrying over nothing."

"He had a point" Ken sided with Andrew.

"Though the liquor sounds good" Chad added.

They all laughed. But then someone came threw the door. One of the people who were organising this celebration.

"The brined and bridal party has arrived, and the last of the guests are arriving, so you guys have 10-15 minutes left, then head for the side door" the caterer said then disappeared.

Endymion and the guys then gave each there prep talked and reassured Endymion that everything was going to go smoothly before heading to the side door where they were expected. And not soon they were sent in to wait for the bride to come.

+-+-+-+-+- o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o -+-+-+-+-+

"Okay ladies, lets go" one of the caterers said as she lead the girls towards the door. "Umm, also, who is walking you down the isle?" she asked Serenity.

"I have arranged for a very dear and old friend to walk me" Serenity replied, "He should be waiting at the entrance for us".

As they rounded the corner, there at the door was standing a young looking man with high cheek bones and a square face. He had shoulder length wavy chocolate hair and syrup golden eyes. He was wearing a typical black suit and smiled at their arrival.

"Serenity" he bowed, "look at you, all grown up" he hugged her, "How long has it been?"

"Too long Jaqumai" she hugged him back, then turned to the others, "This is a dear friend of mine. We have known each other since I was small. He was the one who taught me everything there was to know about being a female" she laughed. "And for that I have always looked up at him as a second father, since father was always busy, and Jaqumai always took me places" she smiled.

"Very well then" the caterer said, "The two brides maids will go first, then the maid of honour, then the bride and friend" she said ushering everyone to get in line.

When the first two brides maids went down they walked the full length and stood at the front in line with the guys on the opposite side. Then it was the Maid of honour, and she did the same as they other two. But when Serenity came threw, everyone turned to look at her, and Endymion smiled as she looked at him. Anticipating her to hurry up and get to him.

When she reached the front, Jaqumai gave her two kisses on either cheek and hugged her, then went and sat down as she took her place next to Endymion at the alter.

The ceremony went smoothly and with out a mishap. Basically perfect! Balisimo!

They both said their 'I do's' and kissed. And the guests all awed in happiness and clapped in rejoice.

When the couple pulled away from each other, the Priest then said something about them now being coroneted as King and Queen.

After a really long and boring speech by the priest and a few other gentlemen, they dubbed and crowned in front of the people and were finally ushered out of the temple towards a carriage that awaited them outside.

The carriage was white and the driver, Germei, was driving. As the newly weds stepped inside, the people watching still clapped, cried and awed in delight about their new King and Queen.

Finally out of sight and heading towards the castle, Endymion and Serenity waited.

"So tell me, dear husband, how does it feel to be King?" Serenity asked playfully as they headed towards the castle.

"I don't know…" Endymion looked down at Serenity who was rested her head on his should as he held her around the waist. "I feel the same… dear wife" he laughed.

"Mmm… how do you feel about tomorrow? When we officially start our duties as King and Queen?"

"You know, you ask a lot of questions" he tickled her lightly.

"Endy" she whined as she punched him playfully to make his stop.

When he stopped Serenity pouted her lip and looked at him innocently, "You never answered my question though."

"All in due time" he said as he kissed before she could say anything else. Once again, they were smothering each other and mauler each others mouths.

As they pulled apart they panted for air, "you know—" Serenity started, but was cut off.

"I actually do not think of tomorrow… right now I'm just thinking about 'us'" he smiled. "We're husband and wife, king and Queen… and how we are going to consummate our wedding… and coronation… I mean should we do it two times, since there was two celebrations… or once?" he asked thoughtfully. "Like one as husband and wife, then another time as King and Queen… like how do you want to do it?" he turned towards Serenity.

"Arrg… how about I let you decide" she said blushing, "This really isn't my topic of conversation… never was" she tried to smile as raw embarrassment washed threw her.

"You know, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. It's a natural part of any kind of behaviour. And I think we should talk more about his stuff… I mean we have to make decisions together… so why not start in the bedroom… right?" he asked her.

Serenity just looked at him wide eyed, "Arr… umm… sure… hehe…" she smiled weakly.

"Well what do you think" he pressured her. Loving the fact that this certain topic made her act all weird and embarrassed.

"Umm… I dunno… you make a good point… but I dunno how it works" she quickly said. "What ever is fine with me" she smiled weakly again.

Endymion immediately cracked out laughing, "You are so cute like that… maybe we should talk more about this subject… anything to get that reaction" he laughed.

Serenity furrowed her brows and slapped him lightly on the arm. "Well like I said, this isn't my favourite subject to talk about…"

"Talk about" Endymion wondered on, "so you don't like talking about it, but you do like it? Right?" he asked curiously.

Serenity sighed; she really didn't want to talk about this… "You remember, at your kingdom, and I was apologising for setting orders, and you took me to that little office, or whatever? Do you remember a certain scene?" she asked.

Endymion looked at her with a raised brow, "You mean the scene that was interrupted?"

"Yeah" she smiled.

"How I was like" he moved closer and kissed her lips roughly, "this" he did it again, "AND THIS" he said as he pushed her dress up, kissed her roughly again.

"Yeah" she said dazed as Endymion's hands roamed around her body.

Suddenly the carriage slowed up and was about to stop. Due to the change of speed, Endymion restrained himself and helped fix Serenity's dress. "Shall we continue this inside, dear wife?" he asked as he held out his hand for her to emerge from the carriage.

As they got out of the carriage and walked to the castle guards at the front door, the carriage rode off and the guards had already opened the doors, waiting for their highnesses to enter.

As they did, they noticed the castle was empty, and felt lifeless. There were no maids scattering around. All that was hard was Serenity's heels clicking on the ground, and Endymions boots hitting the ground. They were somewhat running, more like gliding threw the corridors, up stairs, around corners and came to a sudden halt when they reached large double oak doors.

As Endymion pushed them open he picked Serenity up bridal style and trotted he inside, and closed the door with his foot. They were no allowed in the main master bedroom that had all oak furniture and marble walls and floor. The bed canopy was oak and the sheets were pure black silk and the quilt was a creamy tan colour. Everything was either cream, brown or black.

"Now, where were we?" Endymion said as he placed Serenity on the bed. "Oh yes, now I remember" he said as he shrugged off his suit jacket and propped himself on top of serenity, supporting his weight on this hands and knees as his lips found their ways to hers again.

Serenity grabbed at the buttons to Endymion's vest and shirt and started to unbutton everything as his tongue penetrated her mouth. As he deepened the kiss, he moved his hands to the back of her dress and unzipped it the whole length. He then grabbed the material and pulled it off down her shoulders till her small breast were free. She automatically arched her back, her breast pressing against his chiselled chest she managed to set free from the vest and shirt he was wearing.

As he felt her hard nipples against his chest, he moved back to her mouth, still grasping the dress at her waist. With every kiss it deepened and got more urgent. Then with out warning, Serenity grabbed at his waist and undid his belt, pants button and zip, but before she could remove them, Endymion grabbed her wrists and held them together in one hand above her head.

As his mouth left hers, she let a small moan out as he started suckling on her neck. As he moved down he let her wrists go and placed his hands just under breasts. Her hands then tensed and grabbed at the quilt material as his fangs lightly grazed a spot on her neck, sending a small rush of adrenalin threw her body, leaving her feeling hotter and moist down there. After he lapped up the small amount of blood that he spilt from her neck with his tongue, he placed small kisses around the spot then moved down towards the valley between her breasts. As he did, she felt her body start to go limp under him, feeling the need, and excitement to have him now!

Due to that feeling, she tugged at his waist, gripping his pants, wiggling under him. "Endy" she breathed. Sending a pleading look, panting with anticipation.

Upon seeing her in such a state Endymion tore the rest of her dress off, including her little satin underpants and removed his own as well. He then bent back down to kiss her, smothering her lips in urgency. As he moved the kisses from her mouth, slowly down her neck to her breasts, she wrapped her legs around his waist, moaning in pleasure.

Endymion then slid his tongue down the valley of her breasts and straight across her stomach to her belly button. She closed her eyes as her breath hitched and allowed him to continue his venture over her body, touching and feeling her however and wherever he pleased. She gasped as she felt his hand lowering and finally touching her womanhood. She felt herself being drenched every which way, weariness never kicking in. She moaned as she shut her eyes feeling him insert two fingers.

He moved them back and forth, and then in sheer pain he paused to look back at Serenity's face. She winced when he stopped, she wanted, no need him now.

"Tell me," he whispered as he leant towards her ear, placing a small kiss under her lobe, "Back to our other conversation, how do we do this? Once or twice?" He breathed as Serena kept on panting. "Man and wife, King and Queen?"

"I don't care!" she stressed, "twice sounds nice" she suggested. Endymion merely smiled at her response, devouring her mouth all over again.

"Yeah, I like that," He breathed as he felt her body go ridged, waiting for him to stop his torture and take her. She smiled in response as he continued to finger her, but stopped abruptly as he removed his hand from down there and lifted her onto the sitting position; she was nestled in his lap as his hands trailed down her back, supporting her. Endymion slightly pushed his head back to one side, encouraging her to start the consummation ritual. Serenity slowly leant down towards the exposing part of his neck and opened her mouth, letting her fangs extend and sink into his flesh. She took a few small mouthfuls and tilted her head away from his neck. She swallowed the last of his blood and look at Endymion. He tightened the grip on her back, and she responded by throwing her head back, exposing all her neck to him. He pulled her closer and sunk his own teeth in her. She breathed heavily as he sucked. Waves of pleasure and excitement washing over both of them.

As he pulled away she moaned in anticipation, and he laid her back down again, his mouth working covertly on her mouth.

"Now" she begged as he left her lips.

"I love you, you know that?" he murmured as he pressed her lips against the open bite mark he just tainted her neck with. Sending another wave of bliss threw her.

"I love you too." She panted.

"Ready?" He smiled as he positioned himself over her. Serenity couldn't help but roll her eyes… hoping he would finally stop the torture and plunge deep inside her.

"I'm not a virgin, Endymion. Of course I'm- AHH!" She groaned surprisingly as he slid into her with out warning.

Endymion laughed to himself at Serenity's reaction. She was panting, her muscles widened to his size. Nothing cared to her anymore; she just felt hella good –like the 'No Doubt' song- and encouraged Endymion to fasten his pace with her moans.

"Oh- OH!" She groaned as their hips rocked to the same beat. Their hips worked in unison with each other. Serena gripped onto his arms, her nails slicing his skin, drawing crescent moon marks. His arm drew blood from where her nails pierced them, but it didn't hurt him. He was too focused on giving her the best pleasure of her life, and felt her act was rather arousing.

He felt her orgasm bubble within her. He was getting close as well. They were reaching their climax and he needed to sink his fangs into her skin again. She threw her head back, her body arching with his sweet rhythm. He brought his face down and pierced her neck once more. Serena was scorching hot from all the passion, and felt the need to sink her own teeth in him, settling for the conjunction of his neck and shoulder. Both of their body's were reaching their peak. Endymion could feel their climax home and he thrusted into her one last time.

"Endymion!" Serenity screamed as they hit their peak.

Endymion released himself from Serenity and rolled off next to her. They were both panting and breathing heavily.

"Wow" Serenity breathed as she turned towards Endymion and kisses him.

He then snaked his arms around her waist and kissed her back. "Wanna do that again?" he said as they broke apart.

Serenity looked at him wide eyes, "So soon?"

Endymion merely shrugged and pinned her down with his legs, devouring her mouth and massaging her breast. "Yeah" he breathed as his right hand grabbed at her hip and his left hand held the inside of her thigh, and plunged in for the second time running that night.
