***************************
Ayra felt a little calm after his soothing words beside her words. Regaining her calm composure, she was awestruck over herself before retracting her fangs from the depth of his skin. Her cheeks burned in shame when she noticed the stern look on her father's expression. Her stomach still growled hungrily after having only a sweet bite from its favourite food. It had been a long time since she last drank blood from creature. Her quiest wasn't fully satiated but she couldn't deny the truth that this man was her legal husband now.
Cedric whimpered lightly as soon as her fangs were pulled out from his skin. He smiled smugly at Ayra who was biting her lips hard to cover up the shame. Rubbing on her leftover mark, Cedric commented looking at her uneasy face,
" I thought that you were not going to stop. Well, I didn't mind at all. It's just..we have too many audience to see in here."
Ayra glared at the blatant faced man harshly and whispered in her low voice,
" If we didn't have so many audience in here, I wouldn't even mind becoming a widow. Your Highness! "
Cedric "...."
He could finally declare that he had married to a cruel pathetic demoness who was always ready to ruin his mood. But Ayra had misunderstood his level of shamelessness. Cedric merely smiled at her response and whispered benting his head down a little to hear her ragged breathing,
" I will take review once again after I have you on my bed."
Ayra's face almost bleeded in embarrassment when she was forced to endure such perverted words silently in front of so many people. Especially her fathers were observing them from afar. Lucky, the priest interrupted with his thoughtful words,
" Your Highness! The rituals are all done now! Please seek your blessings from the elders."
Cedric paused between his flirting and hummed obediently at his guidance. Clutching her palms casually, he inteneded to led her down there but heard Ayra's alarming voice,
" You... why did you grab my hand without asking me.."
She was deeply speechless watching him acting so coyly just after their wedding. Cedric who already was on his second stair glanced up at her awkward face like a little fool. Curling his lips up into a devilish smile, he annouced in a proud and arrogant voice,
" I guess, you have forgotten that I don't need your permission to hold your hand anymore. Wife! Come down."
Ayra bit her lips to suppress her fury. Reminding of his posseive nature, she gave up resisting and followed him to greet the elders soon after.
Arthur followed by Alexander and an absentminded Elizabeth walked in unhurriedly. Their eyes travelled on the empty seats in where people were crowded just a few moments ago. Except the families coming from ministers, no one stayed to watch the rest of their wedding after the priest words. Arthur subconsciously wanted to raise his voice but Alexander felt something odd. He stroked on Arthur's hand as a indication to shut up and the loyal brother did.
Something might have happened during their absence!
Ethan patted on Ayra's head lovingly with an emotional smile and wished from the bottom of his heart,
" Live well, baby. Don't forget about this papa! "
Ayra's eyes teared up as she murmured back with a smile,
" I don't dare! "
Ethan chuckled bitterly at her response and shifted his attention beside Cedric who was giving a silent privacy to their family moment. Ethan spoke with a hint of warning edging from his domineering voice,
" Don't ever upset my baby! Remember that she doesn't lack any status in here. Even if she chooses to give up her queen status, she can still become the princess here."
Cedric didn't mind any of his words. He understood too well that his wife was extremely pampered by her family. He replied courteously with his head bending down a little,
" I know, uncle Ethan! I will try my best to keep her happy."
Ethan snorted out coldly and started to give Ayra random advices regarding her duties as a queen.
At that moment, Siemus was suddenly summoned by a guard who was in charge of the main entrance. The guard passed her a gift box wrapped in a colorful paper and told her that Someone had delivered it as a present for their princess. Siemus frowned lightly, wandering who could be so eager to send a present so early after wedding. Carrying the box inside cautiously, she walked beside Ayra and whispered lowly,
" Princess, you got a present."
Ayra frowned turning her face aside and asked,
" Who sent it?"
Siemus shrugged eyeing on the box deeply and mumbled something lowly,
" No name! "
Ayra hesitated for a while and later ordered,
" Open it, aunty! Perhaps the sender wants to surprise me with his gift."
Siemus thought it reasonable and started to unfold the wrapping paper lazily. Just when Siemus opened the box, her face sank and she dropped the box out of astonishment. Ayra also exclaimed staggering back in ecasty and watched the staffs scattered down in horror. Siemus cried out in shock before narrowing her eyes suspiciously,
" Bones! Who dared to send bones to our Princess? What is the meaning behind all of these? Guards! Come here all of you. Explain this now! What nonsense are they doing?"
_DIXON PALACE_
Isabella was placing orders to her maids in an urgent manner. Her big belly was giving her hard times to stand longer than usual but she didn't care. Without her assistance, there was no one who could manage the post rituals well in this palace.
Jessie secretly rolled her eyes at her sister's impatience behavior and wanted to stay invisible as much as possible. To avoid this formalities, she dressed beautifully and started to stride down through stairs hoping that she could go out to have fun in the inn. Just when she reached at the final stair, Isabella's alarming voice came out from her back,
" Jessie, where are you heading for?"
Jessie cursed lowly under her breath and turned around to face her sister with a forced smile. Puting on an innocent face, Jessie replied awkwardly,
" I..I was going to meet a friend..I am just too bored in my room.."
Isabella frowned upon hearing her rumbling and explained patiently,
" Jessie, Cedric is coming with his newly wedded wife. Isn't it our responsibility to greet them together? At least as a princess, you should stick to your responsibilities."
Jessie lost her calm sanity after the mention of Cedric's wife. She went completely out of her character and sneered crossing her arms jokingly,
" As if I care? Well, sister. You are generous enough to still dote on such a unreliable brother who caused your own husband's death even made you getting kicked out of your in-laws family. But I, Jessie Arnaldo Dixon isn't so generous to support a killer like him. Hence,you don't want to see his trueself, I have no say on that. But please don't ask me to greet those two who are perfect match for each others. Oh wait! I have even heard that his wife had a boyfriend before the marriage. What happened with that? Did she fall in love just after knowing Cedric's obsseison towards her or she just couldn't resist the temptation of becoming the queen of Basarisk? "
Isabella stood broken hearted in her spot. She couldn't believe that Jessie could be so vicious worded each time they conversed. Isabella sucked a deep breath and reasoned with a bit cold voice,
" Then you should also remember that each time you kill people, Cedric is the first person to clean off your name. Or else did you think that you can still be so bossy to roam around?"
Jessie's face paled after she was reminded that she was being pitied by Cedric so far. Her chest heavied ups and downs angrily. Sneering out coldly, she barked like a bitten dog,
" It's his sole duty. He made us loosing our parents. Shouldn't he remain guilty for us forever? Don't think that he is doing it for our wellbeing. He just feels guilty! Hmph! I am going outside! Don't call me midway! God knows what disaster he is bringing in our palace! "
Isabella still parted her lips to say something but Jessie headed off without sparing a single glance. Her back dissapared behind the door. As soon as she left, a single teardrop dropped down from Isabella's eyes. Her palms started to shake as she placed them on her protruding belly and whispered softly,
" Baby...you..you blame me for everything too?"
She heard no response in her subconscious mind but her tears kept rolling down uncontrollably. Sometimes accepting reality is far more difficult than believing a lucid lie.
