91 Beginning Of Her Reign season two epilogue

Gradis sat in front of her mirror, adjusting her hair and putting on the final layer of lip tint on her lips. 

At the corner of the room on top of a couch was a mountain of clothing that he had gotten from her trip with Julian and Matheio. Mixes of clothing, stuffed animals Julian had insisted on winning, chocolates and jewelry were in the bags but Gradis was dressed in the best. 

Her dress was crimson red, decked out with sequins and a heavy price tag, the dress fit its new owner perfectly. Hugging all her curves, it had a heart shaped top that revealed her chest then ran down her slim body, her tiny waist to her wide hips. Then at the top of her left thigh was a long slit that exposed the porcelain skin on her legs and showed the tall silver heels on her feet.

If the figure 8 the dress exposed and the deep red that complemented her light skin, wasn't enough then her accessories added elegance to the look. She had a diamond encrusted necklace around her pretty neckline and teardrop diamond earrings hung from her ears. Her face was devoid of large amounts of makeup as her poreless-skin looked better than any foundation could make her look. On her pink lips was a crimson red colored lip tint, laying on top of a layer of the same shade lip-stick. Her eyes with only bronze colored eyeshadow and sharp and crisp black eye-liner curves that popped the shapes of her upturned hazel eyes. To complete the look, her hair was tied in a high bun with little pieces of her dark-brown hair falling down along the sides of her face in curls. 

She looked stunning and she knew it. She threw a jacket over her shoulders.

Standing up from her seat in a hotel room she had booked just for this occasion, she walked out the doors clutching her diamond encrusted handbag which hid away items she might need at the party. Down the hallways her loud heels clicked, stealing the attention of everyone she passed, dazing them with the appealing scent of her perfume and the heavenly aura her presence held.

Finally at the floors of her big apartment, a long black limousine was waiting for her, her two dates waiting for her in front of the car. A little red rose in her little date's hands and a banquet of red roses in her tall date's hands. 

"Matheio! Julian!" Gradis grinned, waving to her boyfriend and the cute little one beside him that called her mommy. 

"Mommy!" Matheio giggled, his eyes sparking up when he saw Gradis. He handed her his little red rose.

She walked up to Matheio, ruffling his hair. "Thank you love," she thanked, "you look dashing," she praised him, punching his cheeks softly.

"Thank you beautiful mommy," Matheio smiled. He knew better than to hug her though, the way she was dressed up made her look like she was a god he had the honor of meeting. "You look like a queen mommy!!"

Matheio frowned, punching Juian in the leg, "daddy! Compliment mommy!" he scolded.

Julian flinched from Matheio's hit like he had been snapped back into reality. He looked up to Gradis again, his face reddening severely. His eyes soaked her in as he tried to figure out the right words to say out his tongue-tied mouth.

"Y-you.. G-gradis… U-um," He stuttered, his gaze darting to anywhere but her face. Finally when he found courage, he sucked in a deep breath and locked eyes with her. He outstretched his hand, presenting her with the banquet of roses he got her, "Y-you look gorgeous babe. So bewitching."

Gradis grinned, her heart skipping a beat. "Thanks love," she chuckled and then eyed him up and down. Her eyes glowed in satisfaction. She stepped closer and patted down the black suit of Julian's tux and refitted his tie then locked eyes with him, "you look ravishing."

"Ah…��� Julian blushed, his hand rising to cover his neck nervously, "t-thanks."

Gradis grinned, "no problem hun." She nodded towards the limousine, "shall we go?"

"Hmm," Julian smiled, opening the door of the limousine.

"Thank you," Gradis nodded, following Matheio into the car.

"No problem," Julian grinned, watching Gradis enter the limousine. When they were seated, he closed the door, and walked around the car, trying the best not to hide his face. The image of Gradis flashed in his mind again and again, her beauty was so unnerving that his legs had trembled. 'That's not fair,' he thought to himself with a smile, 'how am I supposed to do nothing if she looks like that?'

*

Finally they reached the building, and entered the line of limousines waiting to present their owners in their pristine conditions, ready to be judged by the eyes of the media and adoring civilians. 

"You ready?" Julian asked. He was seated beside Matheio who had insisted on sitting in between him and Gradis because he wanted to be near Gradis. 

"Ready?" Gradis looked out into the crowd, camera flashes and gasps of awe could be heard every time a limousine opened and rounds of claps followed, accompanied with the many clicks of cameras. Each picture a candidate to be put on the next morning's news feeds.

To be honest, she was beyond ready. Ready to take down all the large kingdoms in her sights, topple large businesses and grace the news reports week after week, her face being the main focus in everyone's life. She was ready to have her bank account overflowing with money for her new businesses, she was ready to restructure the city and have her companies be the major holders over the city. She was ready to be the most respected woman in the city for both beauty and having incredible power over everything.

But something about that red carpet made her hesitate. The flashing cameras a reminder that all eyes were on her, the screams of glee from the audience watching the celebrities, and the reporters writing up articles as they watched the people coming out the limousine.

"Babe?" Julian asked.

"Hmm?" Gradis muttered, turning to him abruptly. 

"It doesn't matter if you're ready or not," Julian smiled, reaching over Matheio to take her hand, "just remember that we're right here. So whether you're ready or not, we'll be here to go with you."

Gradis blinked blankly before a smile formed on her face. "Yea… together."

"Good," Julian grinned, booping her nose, "let's go now."

He turned around and began to open the door when Gradis called him back.

"Julian?" Gradis muttered.

"Yea babe?" Julian replied, turning back to her.

"I love you," Gradis smiled.

Julian blushed, his lips rising in happiness as his heart thumped faster. "I love you too."

He pushed open the door and walked out of the limousine, gasps from outside could be heard immediately and screams from adoring fans as they called him 'Master Julian' could also be heard.

Gradis watched as his figure traveled around the car and stopped in front of the car door in front of her. Her heart skipped a beat. This was it. This was the moment she was waiting for, this was the moment the world would see her. 

She clenched her hand into a fist and grinned. 'Yea, this is my time,' she grinned.

She turned to Matheio and took his hand in hers. "You ready to go love?"

Matheio gave a nod of approval as he gazed into gradis' confident eyes. "Let's go mommy," He grinned.

"That's right," Gradis smiled as the car door opened, to reveal Julian's smiling face. She put her hands in his and stepped out of the car with Matheio coming out behind her. They stood before the media, bracing the camera flashes together. "Let's go love."
