So I'd like to say THANK YOU to all of you who stay with me for so long both here and on NS. net:)
Very special THANK YOU to my beta b4 Dawn 101. You're really amazing! Thank you for all hard work you put into this story:):):)
Epilogue
"Lex! Those pants are 7 years old!" Chloe Luthor exclaimed, seeing her husband reaching for his favorite green pajama pants.
"They're special," Lex explained embracing her and giving her a light kiss. "It's the first present I got from you."
"And therefore the most important?" Chloe laughed, placing her hands on his chest.
"Nope, the most important presents I've ever received are sitting by the Christmas tree with my father and Horatio. They're waiting impatiently for us to go down and help them open presents." Lex smiled at the thought of his two gems.
"Lex, I'm telling you, our children are impossibly spoiled," Chloe remarked. "You, Lionel, and Oliver are pampering them to the extreme!"
"They aren't spoiled, just loved very much," Lex guaranteed with one more kiss. He released her from his embrace so she could pull on her bathrobe.
"Speaking of pampering, could you finally explain me why Lionel and Oliver bought Lois and Lucas that huge layer cake yesterday? They only said something about the kids had made themselves quite useful, but their looks were too smug for my liking."
Lex smiled. "Yesterday Oliver and Lionel took Lois and Lucas to the funfair," he started. "There they meet an old familiar, who was very, very interested in Oliver." He said "familiar" with distaste.
"That's good. I would like Oliver to find somebody nice for himself," Chloe said before she noticed the sparks of laughter in her husbands eyes.
"You can describe Helen with many words, but 'nice' isn't one of them," Lex told her, trying very hard to keep a straight face.
"Ah, I see, so what happened?" Chloe asked, puzzled.
"Well, to make it short, Helen joined them and refused to leave them alone. She simply hung on Queen's shoulder, to obvious amusement of my father. She must have become desperate in her search for a rich husband."
"And what do our children have to do with it?" Chloe asked, placing her hands on hips.
"When Helen bent to admire our children and dream aloud how her children with Oliver would look, Lois punched her straight into nose and told her to leave Uncle Ollie alone because, 'He is only mine!'" Lex said, laughing. He had to admit that it was a great mental image.
"She didn't?!" Chloe exclaimed.
"She did!" Lex winked.
"And you find it amusing?"
"Don't you?" Lex asked mockingly, raising an eyebrow. Chloe paused to imagine it. The initial shock had ended, and now she could vividly picture the confrontation of the tall beauty and their six-year-old redheaded, hot tempered Lois. Helen hadn't stood a chance. Chloe burst out laughing.
"And what did Lucas do?" she asked when she could catch her breath again.
Lex's smile widened. "He ate a few too many sweets. The fragrance of Helen's perfume evoked a backlash. Let's just say that her coat will never be the same!"
Chloe shook her head. Her family was really unique. She loved them.
"Hey, it wasn't that bad. Do I need to remind you what our duo did a few years ago at the Lana and Clark wedding?" Lex asked.
She cringed a bit. "To the end of my days, I will never forget Nell's fat legs sticking out of that cake and drunk Martha Kent singing a song on the table!"
He flinched. "Such a view can bring nightmares!"
"And don't forget Lana, making sheep's eyes at Oliver. Our sweet Lois got sick of it and decided to deprive her of her skirt!" Chloe began laughing again.
"I didn't forget, but I wish I could! The sight of those white breeches was simply too fearful to even mention! But she got what she deserved--Lois had warned her twice that Uncle Ollie was only hers."
"Isn't it interesting that she attacked Helen without such warning?" Chloe thought aloud.
"She's a quick learner?" Lex joked and one more time lowered his head to get a kiss from his beautiful bride. He couldn't get enough of those sweet lips. Their mouths met, and they were oblivious to the whole world.
Lionel, standing in the doorway of the bedroom, cleared his throat.
"A bit of privacy?" Lex asked.
"Pardon the interruption, but a pair of very energetic children and huge dog are waiting for you downstairs. As much as I would like to have another grandchild, I would not be able to stop my current ones from attacking you if you won't show up right now. Come on, later you will have time to continue without interruptions." Lionel winked at the blushing Chloe.
"Shall we, Mrs. Luthor?"
"We shall, Mr. Luthor," Chloe replied. She giggled as a smile lit up her face. Lex was a perfect gentleman. He loved her. She had two beautiful children and a kind father-in-law. Why, she even had a mansion!
She had finally found her prince and her castle.
