Chapter 34 - Chapter 34 - Epilogue

Three years later...

A little boy around two years old is planted in the white sand, busy with his bucket and shovel. His two little black and yellow construction toys are running slowly around him, scattering and gathering sand as they go.

About three meters away, in a baldaquin bed, lies Nyla, looking like a beach nymph in her boho lace maxi-white flowy sundress. Her long hair scattered on a white fluffly pillow behind her head.

Her eyes not leaving the little guy.

Callum walked from the beach house behind in his white linen shirt and beige board shorts. His masculine body being outlined by the gentle breeze hitting his torso.

He put down the freshly made coconut shake in poured into it's original coconut shell at the round table beside the Nyla's baldaquin bed.

He kissed Nyla first before slowly approaching his son.

Yes, it's been a three years since Nyla and he got married in an intimate cermenony with only the closest friends and family in a private island. It' a week-long celebration.

She became pregnant immediately after and now they have this little adorable prince who looks like his chibi version.

Everybody moved on.

Nyla's exes asked forgiveness from her personally, one way or another.

Violet, her imposter got sent abroad to her strict grandmother to be disciplined. She is now being groomed to handle the family business five years from now.

Percy and Gie got married abroad five months after where same-sex marriage is legal and accepted. Gie's father have no complaints, however, both of them were requested to produce heirs through surrogacy no matter how many and they will all be under the bloodline of Hayes.

Heidi and Hank got married locally a year after. Heidi just gave birth to a baby girl a month ago.

Callum looked at his son's features and chuckled.

'Nyla must love me so much to give birth to a mini-me.' He thought.

Sensing him approaching, the little boy called.

"Heyo, Daddy, Heyo..." Carlisle's tiny chubby hand waved. He tapped the space beside him asking his father to sit down.

The little excavator toy bumped Callum's legs. He picked it up and settled it beside Carlisle. He sat beside his son and started playing with sand with him.

From the bed, Nyla rubbed her ring finger gently.

One is the Blue Star diamond ring set in platinum; her engagement ring.

And the other, a Harry Winston Vertical Diamond Row wedding band.

Looking at Callum who gave her hope, new beginning, and stood witness to her transformation.

A quiet awakening to an otherwise chaotic life she once endured.

Lastly, he gave her a family and a chance to create and raise a wonderful tiny human being.

Indeed, Callum was her Purple Dawn.
