Malcolm stroked her hair. “It was a long time coming, but you're right. We see each other more clearly now. What I see is our future together. And that's all that matters.”
Malcolm claimed Nicole's lips to seal his promise with a kiss.

PILOGUE
Nicole stood in front of the hot, bright lights outside the movie theater. She watched the male news reporter smile into the camera, waiting for his cue to begin.
His smile widened when he got the signal.
“Ladies and gentlemen, joining us on the red carpet are the producers of
InterDimensions: The Movie,
Malcolm Bryant and Omar Carter. And the author of the
InterDimensions
books, Nicole Collins-Bryant.” He turned to them. “Your movie premiere. How are you feeling?”
“Very excited,” Malcolm said. “We have a really good turnout tonight.”
“Yes, it's tremendous,” Omar agreed.
Grinning, the reporter turned back to the camera. “The turnout's understandable, though. This project rose like a phoenix from the ashes. The movie actually was jeopardized, Nicole, when one of your fans threatened you and actually killed Malcolm's first partner, Tyrone Austin, and your agent, Denise Maitland.”
A cloud settled over Nicole at the reminder of the deaths of her friends. “Yes, that's true. But we're grateful to the police for helping us find the people responsible and bringing them to justice.”
The reporter continued. “A tragedy, to be sure. But it does have a happy ending. Not only has the movie been completed, but you and Malcolm were married last year. And it looks like you'll soon have an addition to your family,” he said, referring to Nicole's obvious pregnancy.
“Yes. Our first child is due in eight weeks.” She smiled up at her husband from the cradle of his arm. “Another reason to be grateful.”
Malcolm shared a loving smile with her.
Reclaiming the spotlight, the reporter wished the trio a successful night and moved on to interview the movie's stars.
Two hours later, as the final credits began to roll, the audience erupted into applause, which dwindled to a respectful silence when the last frame appeared: “Dedicated in loving memory to Tyrone Austin and Denise Maitland.”
