Chapter 14

Ninety days later...

“Hector Claude von Greiner, do you take this woman, Cassie, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, to love, comfort, and desire, for better or for worse, for rich or for poor, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, cleave only unto her, for as long as you both shall live?” Red asked the groom as part of the vows.

“I do,” Hector gulped, feeling his heart almost reach his throat.

“Cassandra Isabelle von Greiner, do you take this man, Hector, to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, to love, comfort, and desire, for better or for worse, for rich or for poor, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, cleave only unto him, for as long as you both shall live?” Red now turned to the bride to complete the exchange of the vows.

“I do,” Cassie blushed a bit as she realized that this moment, bittersweet without their parents, had come at last.

“Now, let us exchange the wedding bands. Is the ring bearer prepared?” Red asked Ryan, who brought up the wedding rings.

“I am,” Ryan grinned as he presented the rings for this part of a mostly old-fashioned wedding.

Emphasis on mostly.

Well, if one left out the fact that the bride and groom were not only siblings, but twins. Unlike most of their brothers and sisters, this couple was monogamous and they had a greater tendency toward traditional and sentimental practices compared to the rest of the family. Theirs was a very “sappy” or “mushy” romance in many ways, but most of their relatives found it cute and adorable in the youngest von Greiner twins. They couldn’t even stand to be apart for a month to prepare for college, after all.

“With this ring I thee wed and with all I am and all I have I honor you,” Hector told Cassie now as he placed the ring upon her left hand.

“With this ring I thee wed and with all I am and all I have I honor you,” Cassie repeated the words as she put the wedding band on her brother’s ring finger.

“Then, by the power vested in me by the State of Texas, and evidently the Supreme Court, I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride. Congratulations!” Red announced the nuptials.

Hector didn’t hesitate to dip Cassie for a very deep and amorous French kiss. He also lifted her bridal gown and slid her panties down, making her giggle as she helped him and tossed her underwear to the crowd like a bouquet of flowers. There were limits to just how traditional this wedding was, given that the couple were exhibitionists who loved to tease others with what they could never have. The fact that Cassie briefly mooned the wedding guests could scarcely escape notice, after all.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Hector von Greiner. If the happy couple are ready, we will sign and witness the marriage license while the rest of you depart for the reception. Let the witnesses come forward to sign the license as well,” Red smiled, even as Margie approached him with Cassie’s underwear in hand.

“After the signing, meet me upstairs in my room. Don’t act coy. You know what I want. No sense in not taking full advantage of a home wedding, right? Don’t worry. The wedding cake and candied mints aren’t going anywhere,” Margie openly propositioned the man.

It was time to move beyond the twins and start her life afresh. With a better man than that vile rapist of a priest. Now that she ditched the habit, Margie wanted to seek out all of the pleasures denied to her as a nun. Hearing that exchange, Cassie winked at the pair and then at Hector.

“They’re not the only ones gonna fuck like rabbits in a little while ... though, we might want to wait until after feeding each other the first slice. Some folks will want to film or snapshot us, right?” Cassie whispered to Hector.

“You don’t seem bothered by giving up your panties,” Hector teased her as they signed.
