Time surely does fly by, bc in the middle of the night, Selene went into labour. To Selene's shock (and the Watcher's dismayal), she had two healthy baby boys, named Deacon and Duncan.

One day, after work, Knox showed up to Selene's apartment. He couldn't help but notice the baby bump and immediately assumed she was pregnant with his baby. Selene didn't have the heart to tell him the truth and accepted his want to be there for their future child.

Selene met her first Cupid's Corner date, Knox Greenburg, at the spice festival. They had a lot of fun.
Second Cupid's Corner date was Joaquin Le Chien. And he was everything Selene could dream for in a man.

Both dates ended in the same result: some risky woohoo. She's not too mad about it though.

Little makeover 🥹🥹

Thank you. My Mint heir seems to think Darwin's soo cute that they should have another baby. I swear the Bucket List is my enemy! 😤

Ugh the typos in this 🤦🏾

Cont'd here (Part 3):

Julep scooped Nalani up into his arms, the passion reignited once more. He carried her to their bedroom and began their own celebration of their engagement and future marriage.

Julep gets up and pulls Nalani into a kiss. All Julep's nerves melt away as they kiss. He's said it before and he'll say it again: *how* did he end up the luckiest guy in the world.

While Nalani started rambling on about what their wedding would look like, who should come, and so on, Julep was just wondering how he ended up the luckiest guy in the world.

There was a pause, the ocean waves crashing against the beach sand and the music and chatter from inside being the only sound in the air. Nalani slipped the ring on her finger and stared at it for what felt like centuries to Julep. Then he finally exhaled as he heard her say what he'd hoped for.

Julep exhales a shaky breath before dropping down to one knee. In shock, Nalani places a hand to her chest. Watcher, this couldn't be… a proposal could it?

Nalani finds him out on the patio and asks him if he's okay. He's usually not alone during any event, he's the life of the party in her eyes. Julep reassures her, but admits something is on his mind.

With all the festivities having moved inside, Julep headed to their patio overlooking the beach for a bit of fresh air.

Nalani recommends Julep throw a party with some of their friends. So what better than to destress than with a Keg Party?

It's been 3mo living together now (6mo having been together). The two have gotten into a nice routine. Actually Nalani has been contemplating quitting her job to be a writer while Julep is starting to feel some burnout from his job.

Julep swims over to Nalani, pulling her close to him and shaking his head. He was never offended about her mermaid form and took this moment to speak truly from the heart.

Not fully a shock to Julep, (he did ask her multiple times) but he learned his girlfriend really is a mermaid. And she is even more stunning in her aquatic form.

We're back to the Baie family, where Julep and Nalani are sitting on their patio. Julep, his jealousy starting to rise, inquires about Nalani's whereabouts at night lately since he's moved in.
