The Werewolf King's Bride

Chapter 274: Luc And Ruby's Wedding

(From Blue's Perspective)

I was getting ready for Ruby's wedding ceremony. It was five hours away, but I needed to start getting ready this early. The ceremony was going to be held in a very well-known park. It was reserved for the Royal family only.

The park's main attraction was its dandelion field. Just like many other people, it would be my first time visiting the park.

I wore a red long body fitted dress. The train was pretty long, which was my favorite part. The neckline showed a bit of my cleavage. My dress was ordered to be made at the same time as Ruby's wedding dress was being made.

I kept the ornaments at a minimum. Even so, I could not avoid wearing the tiara. Personally, I did not like wearing a tiara, but it was important this time since I was joining as the Queen. Dem was going to wear his crown as well. He hated it as well.

Over the dress, I had to wear the Royal coat. It was uncomfortable to wear something like that. It was black and the fur around the borders was golden in color.

It took more than four hours for the maids to get me ready. The makeup today was not my usual style since they put on red eye shadow on my eyelids and dark red lipstick on my lips. I usually wore natural shade makeup. But I decided to make red my priority today as per the wedding theme.

My hair was not tied today. They curled it a bit and let it fall on my back. The tiara on my head made sure that no hair fell on my face.

"It was a good choice to go with these thin earrings," one of the maids said. "They look better with this look."

"Your Highness looks very different and dangerous. It's very much different from Your Highness's usual look."

"That's true. The usual look made Her Highness look beautiful and cute. But this look makes Your Highness look gorgeous and hot. Both looks suit Your Highness actually."

"Thank you for your hard work," I said dismissively. "I will be leaving soon. So, take a break then."

"Yes, Your Highness."

I stood up and looked at myself in the mirror. Though they said that I looked gorgeous, I still had a hard time adjusting to the look. Something was wrong with this look. My eyes, for some reason, did not suit the red makeup at all. Or was it just me?

I took a deep breath and took Perita's arm that she offered. She was here the whole time, observing my makeup and complaining that it was taking too long. The maids now had learned not to pay attention to her.

"Your Highness actually looks very gorgeous. Everyone is going to keep looking at you today."

"Well, even if I am ugly, everyone will look at me. I am the Queen, after all," I said. "It's actually very uncomfortable. I just hope that I won't freak out."

The moment Perita opened the door, I found a familiar face waiting outside for me. He smiled the moment he saw me.

I glanced up and down at him. He was wearing his usual King's attire. Along with that, he just wore a ring with a ruby on it. He said that it was enough red for him.

"How do I look?" I asked. "You know, I thought I should make red my priority today."

"... Do you have the dagger with you?" he asked without answering me.

"Yes... But why?"

"So, you can stab any man who approaches you, not as the Queen, but as a sexy and hot woman."

"Jeez, is this your way of complimenting me?"

"That was a surprise attack," Perita nodded.

"You truly look very hot today," he said and kissed me on the lips suddenly. Perita was used to this kind of situation, so she quickly stepped away from me.

Thankfully, the lipstick could only be removed after ten hours. I wore it keeping my husband in mind.

"Dem!"

"When my wife looks like this, it's hard to resist, you know."

"You are really... Anyway, should we go there now?"

"No, we are going to be the last ones to go there," he said. "Even after Luc and Ruby enter."

"Hmm..."

"The ceremony is going to be held for a long time. It's not an Imperial marriage, so it will be different."

"But it's still being held at night."

"It's evening," he corrected. "Werewolves usually get married in the evening or at night. The ceremony will start at six-thirty and it will go on until twelve. You said that we are going to stay until the end. After the main ceremony is finished, I mean, marking each other, it's time for a little party. Remember, after our wedding, we held banquets for seven days.

You and I left very early because it was very crowded. But they kept partying. Tonight, it will be like that as well."

Because I briefly showed my face at those banquets, I did not know many nobles. Now, I had an idea since I read all the important documents about the noble families.

"We will stay a bit at the party as well. A lot of important people are coming. They will be staying too, I guess."

"People usually love to party. And the people invited at the wedding are all important people, at least, that's what they say."

"Yeah, yeah, no one is important to you."

"You are," he said firmly.

"Ah, that's right," I mumbled.

After some time, Dem said that we could leave now. Flint was the one who teleported us there. Flint was invited to the wedding as well. Luc even said the reason.

"He is a talented guy. That's why he is invited. There is no place for idiots in my wedding," he had said so.

We teleported at the end of the aisle. As soon as they got the sight of us, it was announced that the King and the Queen had arrived. Everyone turned their heads to see us.

Dem was unbothered by the stares as usual. I was bothered less than before since I got used to this a bit.

They stood up and bowed as we walked toward the bride and the groom. Ruby looked really beautiful. The designer was right. She looked better without a veil. Luc looked very handsome as well. It was my second time seeing him not wearing his robe.

So, I was a bit taken aback.

Both of them bowed slightly. After that, Dem and I took a seat in the front row beside the duke and the duchess.

"Oh my god, Blue, I mean, Your Majesty looks gorgeous!" Iris exclaimed. Since we were in public now and anyone could hear us, we were to talk formally with each other. No matter how close we were, it was not alright to call the Queen by her name, according to the general people.

"The duchess looks very beautiful too," I smiled.

"Greetings, His and Her Majesty," the duke greeted.

Dem nodded just a bit. "I have not seen the duke in a while. How have you been?" I asked.

"I have been well. Thanks to the grace of His and Her Majesty," he replied.

The wedding ceremony started. Though it was Luc's and Ruby's wedding, I could feel most people's gaze on me. Was it because I was a human?

"Luc looks great in a suit," I said. "Shouldn't he wear it often?"

"Don't call another man looks good in front of your own husband. No, don't ever say something like that, no matter what," Dem said.

"You are saying this kind of stuff... Won't others hear us?"

"Not when we two talk. See the ring on my finger? You are wearing the same ring, right? It will prevent others from hearing our conversation."

"So, it's not a simple ruby?"

"I don't like the color red. It doesn't suit me if it's not blood. So, I thought if I were to wear something red, it might as well be useful. That's why I made one for you as well."

'If it's not blood? Do you know how creepy that sounds? I am glad no one else can hear you.'

"Ruby looks very beautiful. I can, at least, say that, right?"

"She looks the usual to me though?"

"... Hey, does everyone really seem the same to you other than me?"

"Of course," he said. "I actually don't find the necessity to properly look at other people if it's not someone I love. I look at you because I love you. And since you are the only person  I love, I don't care about others or their appearance."
