Mireyu woke up early in the morning.
‘Perfect.’
In fact, she could not easily shake off her anxiety even after receiving Queen Isabella’s permission. This was because, contrary to what the saint said, Mireyu was not actually pregnant.
‘It’s something I personally blessed you with. Who would suspect?’
‘But if I get caught…’
‘You can just pretend that you had an accident or miscarried before that. In the meantime, you can do what Mireyu did with her fake scar.’
As the saint said, it was a pointless worry. Not only was Mireyu’s pregnancy a problem, but everyone was clamoring to get involved in this huge wedding with the saint’s blessing.
Aristocrats and famous celebrities also wanted to attend her wedding. She even supported the cost of the Swan wedding hall and wedding ceremony, which cost a lot of money, under the pretext of investing even in Te Miller, which did not sponsor.
‘I can’t believe I’m getting married at the Silver Swan Wedding Hall.’
The most famous wedding hall in the empire. It was a wedding hall that every bride dreams of, as it was located in a forest that symbolizes eternal love. Since reservations ware not always accepted, Queen Royam was unable to make a reservation for the Silver Swan Wedding Hall.
‘I finally got my happiness back.’
Queen Isabella and Hessen took care of Mireyu with even greater care because she had a child. Diana was also at a loss as she didn’t know what to do because she was stressed out.
‘The days will continue to go on, right?’
She bathed in a bathtub filled with roses and milk, then changed into a gorgeous wedding dress. She didn’t like the wedding dress she had previously chosen because it had a design that covered her neck, so she got a new one. Her wedding was even more spectacular with diamond earrings and bracelets specially made for her bride.
“Oh my god, is it because I received the saint’s blessing? You are truly dazzlingly beautiful today.”
“Lady Juti was originally beautiful. So, Prince Royam must have fallen in love at first sight.”
Every guest who came to the bride’s waiting room heaped praise on Mireyu’s beautiful appearance. In reality, it was quite different from Mireyu’s plain and delicate appearance, and was even more dramatic.
“Mi, Mireyu. Congratulations on your wedding.”
As soon as nobles from the Juti family came to visit, Mireyu was offended. But there were still people around her.
“Welcome.”
People gave her space so that Mireyu could have time with her family. Mireyu was not very into meeting the Juti family who had their own thoughts.
“Look, I said I would take care of everything. Do I really need to see the results like this?”
“Yes, I should have trusted you and waited for you then. She is my daughter after all.”
When Baron Juti approached with a big smile, Mireyu kicked him in the shin.
“Is that all you have to say?”
“Then what…”
“I am now the one who will become Queen Royam. Don’t you need to understand the situation?”
Mireyu rubbed her stomach as if showing off, and Baron Juti, who had been silent, apologized with an expression that hurt her pride.
“…I’m sorry for ignoring you and calling you an illegitimate child. I was so excited that I did something I shouldn’t have done.”
“Is that the end?”
“Honey, you also apologize to Mireyu. Mireyu, who is pregnant with Royam’s blessing, is heartbroken.”
Baroness Juty seemed taken aback, but she took her daughter, bit her lip, and said that she would do as Mireyu wanted.
“I’m sorry, Mireyu. I said I cared about you, but you may have felt ignored.”
“Ugh, are you still saying that?”
Mireyu shook her head in disgust and shooed away her baroness and her daughter. The next person she came to visit was Diana.
“Diana, I’ve been waiting for you!”
“Did you have a good conversation with your family?”
“Sure. Although I was a little tired…”
Diana smiled tiredly as Mireyu patted her on the shoulder.
“My new sister Mireyu, congratulations on your wedding. We are finally a family.”
“That’s right, family.”
Mireyu looked at her stomach with affection.
“I am so happy to be able to give my child a good family.”
Diana, who seemed to be looking at this with satisfaction, spoke to Mireyu.
“I chose a wedding gift for my sister in law’s future child. I will give it to you after the wedding.”
“Even something like that…”
“If I, the princess, care about my child like this, everyone will bless the child more.”
Mireyu’s cheeks blushed at Diana’s words.
“Thank you. Once she knows that this kid has such a great aunt, she’ll want to come out right away.”
Diana left to see Hessen, and Mir Eu was again surrounded by her hand-picked guests. It’s a perfect wedding.
* * *
Mireyu’s wedding started at lunch.
She also woke up in the morning and started getting ready. Betty, who was helping her dress up next to her, grumbled.
“It’s a shame that I can’t decorate you more beautifully because you are a wedding guest. If I decorate you further, then that girl…!”
“Will I be pushed out if I decorate more?”
“Of course not! You will look more beautiful even if you go out dressed in rags!”
Betty, who helped her with her makeup, went out for a moment to get some accessories.
“Time is really important today.”
In the meantime, she talked to the trees.
“This can’t happen suddenly like last time. Okay?”
-Hehe, I told you not to worry.
-Yes, baby. There will be absolutely no mistakes this time. Your fairy powers have been restored and you can now control trees. Everything will be fine!
Sigh-
“Betty, are you here?”
When she turned her head, what she saw was not Betty, but John. John appeared carrying the jewelry box that Betty had gone to pick up.
“Where did John go?”
Recently, John has been busy and has been away from his desk often. So she felt like she hadn’t seen him in a long time, and she was a little embarrassed. Meanwhile, she wasn’t quite sure what she wanted to do with John. So, she deliberately put off making a decision while concentrating on her thoughts about Mireyu. But as she was doing so, John confused her mind with just his face.
“It’s important, so I have to come back just in time.”
“Would you like to go to the wedding together?”
When John comes to the wedding, the plan changes completely.
“No, I’m not going.”
John, who had put the jewelry box on the dressing table, stood behind her and lightly brushed her hair.
“Is there something else you want to do?”
“Huh. But aren’t you curious?”
“I’m curious, but not to the point where I’m asking about things I don’t want to talk about.”
John’s long, strong fingers gently trimmed his hair. Decorating with blue roses and ribbons looked much more familiar than Betty. However, she occasionally found herself flinching because she was concerned about his skin naturally brushing against her neck and ears.
“This is the end.”
John took out his earrings from his jewelry box and hung them on his ears.
“Do you like it?”
She saw John through the mirror. He was met with red eyes. His gaze was very intense, as if he was trying to dig into her and look inside her. Without knowing why, his mouth became dry and he swallowed.
“Yes, it’s pretty. When did you ever get your hair done like this?”
“A long time ago?”
John smiled and answered.
“I had a sister who always went around with her hair messed up.”
It’s about family.
‘This is the first time he has talked about his family like this.’
She was very nervous, perhaps because of anticipation for some unknown reason or because of John’s breathing trembling as we were close to him. She asked, pretending not to know anything.
“Sister? Is this a family story?”
“Huh. My family that I can’t see now.”
“Ah…”
“I’ll tell you later. You don’t have more time than me right now, right?”
She felt secure as she saw John naturally resting his chin near her head.
‘Can I trust him now?’
At that time, John kissed her cheek as if by surprise.
“…!”
When she opened her eyes like a rabbit at the sudden contact, John playfully lifted his mouth.
“You should get used to it now.”
“It’s because you don’t say anything.”
The low voice sent goosebumps down her spine. John’s thumb subtly rubbed the area around her lips.
“Then I can do whatever I want as long as I say so?”
“What?!”
“I will do as you say very well. Now let’s kiss.”
What?! However, contrary to expectations, John hugged her tightly from behind. John let out a low laugh like a well-fed beast.
“It’s just a joke.”
Now, every time she was in his arms, she felt a sense of security and a familiar excitement. She hit John with her elbow, and he fell with his hands up.
“Now that I think about it, I have a place to take you tomorrow.”
“Where?”
“A place you might like. I’m going on a date there, just the two of us.”
She was embarrassed that her heart was pounding, so she deliberately opened her eyes brightly.
“How do you know I’ll like it?”
“I know everything.”
John smiled arrogantly.
“It’s your job, why don’t I know about it?”
* * *
The wedding has begun.
“The bride is entering!”
Mireyu entered her ceremony hall escorted by Baron Juti. Silver Swan Wedding Hall was as great as its reputation. The guests were happy with the reception at the wedding hall and were in a friendly mood, but when they saw Mireyu appear, they applauded her.
“It’s really so beautiful.”
“I had no idea Lady Juthi was so beautiful. By the way, there really is no scar.”
Mireyu fully exposed her pretty and smooth neck beneath her gorgeous chandelier. The people looked at Mireyu’s clean neck and recalled the saintly blessing.
“Crown Prince Royam, too, they are such a nice man and woman.”
“It’s a wedding blessed by a saint… I’m so jealous. “If only I could have a wedding like that.”
Mireyu was handed over to Hessen, where the escort, Baron Juti, had previously stood.
“Please take care of me.”
Hessen did not respond, but moved to escort Mireyu.
‘Am I weird?’
Because the veil covered her face and she could not turn her head as she pleased, Mireyu could not look at Hessen’s expression.
‘Is Hessen just as nervous as me?’
She was obviously nervous, as her marriage was the most important event in her life, so she may have misheard Baron Juty’s words. So she whispered to Hessen first that only he, who was walking next to her, could hear.
“Hessen, it’s so cool.”
“…Mireyu is also beautiful.”
Upon hearing Hessen’s answer, Mireyu felt relieved.
‘As expected, I was right.’
At the end of the red road, a cardinal personally invited from the Kingdom of Royam officiated for the couple. The officiant congratulated the couple on their marriage and asked for their final vows.
“Bride Mireyu Juti, do you pledge to follow your groom, Hessen Royam, for the rest of your life and live as husband and wife?”
“Yes.”
‘At last.’
“Do you, the groom Hessen Royam, swear to live as husband and wife to your bride, Mireyu Juti, for the rest of your life?”
Mireyu smiled brightly, unable to hide her overwhelming emotions. But Hessen said nothing to the cardinal’s words. The ceremony became heavy due to the groom’s silence. She could feel the guests shaking in the air.
Mireyu, who was nervous, called out to him cautiously, as if whispering.
“…Hessen?”
“…”
At that time, Hessen, who had not said anything, slowly turned his head and looked at Mireyu.
“Mireyu, do you love me?”
“Of course I love you. What’s wrong?”
Only then did Mireyu feel like she could truly see Hessen’s face.
‘Why?’
Hessen’s face was strange.
His appearance, which was originally praised like a prince in a fairy tale, was particularly stunning, perhaps because it was their wedding day. But his mouth, which was always smiling softly, became stiff.
“Then can you tell me everything you’re hiding from me?”
In the meantime, his orange eyes as he looked at Mireyu were warm.
‘Is not it?’
A chill ran down her spine. Maybe he was desperate, maybe he was sad, maybe he didn’t love her at all. Mireyu thought that she was always easy to grasp with a big Hessen like a prince. But just for today, the most important day, she was strangely unsure of Hessen’s feelings at all. It was like she was seeing him for the first time.
‘Estelle said something strange to Hessen.’
However, the more anxious Mireyu felt, the more confidently she decided to come forward.
“What does that mean?”
Mireyu asked back casually.
“Hessen also knows. How sincere I was to you. I’m not hiding anything.”
Everything that could be problematic has been dealt with. Her scars, which had been faked through black magic, were completely cleaned up with the blessings of the saint. Naturally, she also disposed of the gold ring, which was a medium for black magic.
‘There is no such thing as evidence.’
Hessen lowered his head and spoke softly.
“…Is that so?”
“Yes, that’s it. Don’t worry too much, my love.”
When Hessen nodded his head as usual, Mireyu finally felt relieved.
‘How dare you try to ruin my wedding?’
As soon as she would get married and became Queen Royam, she would immediately take her place and find out what tricks Estelle had been up to.
At that moment, Hessen dropped his ring box. The ring box on the floor opened and the ring rolled around on the floor. Mireyu looked at the couple’s wedding rings rolling around on the floor without realizing it.
“I’m sorry. I loved you but…”
Hessen said in a sad voice.
“I can’t believe your love.”
“Hessen…?”
“I don’t think I can bear your ugly lies any longer.”
For a moment, Mireyu felt like everything was a lie.
“Sorry, guests.”
There was contempt in Hessen’s eyes as he turned around. Hessen bowed his head to the guests behind them.
“This wedding is invalid. This woman is said to be a nobleman, but she is the illegitimate child of Baron Juti, who deceived me.”
