Good Novel
Chapter 198
Six weeks later, the royal wedding took place, and it was the largest wedding in Lycan and werewolf history...because werewolves were never invited to a Lycan’s wedding, let alone the Lycan King and Queen's wedding.
In the confinement units of prison, the police once again tied each Kylton to a chair and placed the same televisions from the coronation day in each of their units, courtesy of the King. They taped the heiress's mouth after her first scream this time.
Xandar decided that he would use the short period of time after the wedding and before the honeymoon to tell Lucianne about forcing the Kyltons to watch her coronation and their wedding. He didn't tell her when he sent out the order because he didn't want Lucianne to blink her doe eyes and talk him out of doing what he wanted to do. It wasn't as if he was doing anything bad. He was simply doing everything within his power to avenge her, and besides... Christian agreed that it was a good idea. 2
Xandar was standing at the altar, adjusting his sapphire blue tie which matched well with his pastel blue shirt finished off with a black tuxedo. Christian was by his side as his best man, and Juan, Toby, Raden, Tate and Zeke stood in a row after Christian, all of whom were in black tuxedos and sapphire blue bow ties which stood out against their white shirts.
The room was packed, and the parents made sure they held onto their children this time to avoid repeating what happened during the coronation. When the wedding planner gave the cue for the band to start the music, everyone quieted down and stood up.
The flower boys and girls walked down the aisle first. In pairs, one child held a basket filled with freesia petals while the other scattered them on the aisle as they walked. After them came the bridesmaids one by one in lilac dresses, each custom-designed and made by Hale. Lovelace walked first, followed by Zelena, Slyvia, Annie and Hale. Each of them held a bouquet of freesias that were of a different color.
After the ladies took their places at the altar on the opposite side of the men, the moment everyone was waiting for arrived. Lucianne came into view with a hand around Ken's arm, and the attendees cheered and clapped, blurring out the music that was playing in the background. Her braided updo and skilfully-done make-up highlighted her bright eyes, small nose and plump lips. Her off-the-shoulder wedding dress offered a striking view of her neckline and accentuated her regal silhouette and the visible curve of her baby bump. Also designed and made by Hale, the color gradient of the dress starts out lilac from the top before darkening into a majestic onyx towards the bottom. In her free hand was a bouquet of multicolored freesias.
The sight was so breathtaking that Xandar heaved a sigh before pressing his lips together to stop himself from crying. When Lucianne and Ken reached the end of the aisle, the former-Alpha’s eyes glistened as he muttered to his adopted daughter, "You'll always be my little girl, Lucy.”
Lucianne smiled even wider and wrapped her arms around her adoptive father as she whispered, “I know, daddy. Thank you.”
Ken sobbed once before they left each other's embrace, and the father placed Lucianne’s small hand into Xandar's larger one, uttering only two words to his soon-to-be son-in-law, “Thank you.” Ken then went to join Janice at the front row to avoid bursting into tears in front of the entire congregation. Lucianne stepped onto the platform and stood opposite Xandar, who held her hands in his as he chuckled with watered eyes.
Seated in the front row with her parents, Evie studied the sight at the altar with focused eyes before starting to sketch skilfully with her pencil on a large art block paper placed on an easel in front of her.
When stray tears trickled from the corners of Xandar blissful lilac orbs, Lucianne’s thumbs came to gently wipe them away. He was about to close their distance to peck a kiss on her forehead but the marriage officiant placed the Scriptures of Matrimony between their faces to stop him as he said, “You're paying me to do my job, your Highness. Let's not render my presence even more insignificant than it already is.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
-A stream of laughter followed from everyone else, especially from the bride, igniting a more radiant fire in the groom's heart as his
animal cooed. With a wide smile, the marriage officiant opened the scriptures and began reciting from it. When it was time to exchange their vows, Xandar regurgitated whatever he had been practising over the past few weeks.
“Lucy, from the first moment we met, I knew that my life would never be the same again. You bring a gentle warmth, thawing the heart that I've kept cold and hardened for so many years. Your words of assurance and your solution-oriented mind give me hope whenever I feel like I'm at the bottom of an abyss with no way out.”
“Your eyes have a way of keeping me awake and alert. When we're together, you awaken emotions that I could never even imagine feeling. You make me better, make me more than the man I once was. I know I said this before but I still can’t fathom how I got this lucky to be bonded to you, my love. You're amazing beyond words, more perfect than any Queen from the past, and you're going to make an exceptional mother for our child.” 1
Lucianne’s vision was blurring from her tears as she let out a soft chuckle. Xandar placed her hand over his heart as he continued,” It beats for you, Lucy. I have only ever been and will only ever be yours. I promise to hear you out whenever you have something to
say; to hold you close whenever you need a hug or a shoulder to cry on; to celebrate you not just as our Queen, but as a person and a s my mate; to kiss away any doubts that you may still hold for yourself; to protect you and our child in any and every way; and to keep telling you and showing you how much you mean to me and how much I love you. I love you, my little freesia.”
