Chapter 47 The Wedding Ceremony

The wedding was moving forward far too fast. I didn’t like it, but it had to happen.

I was assigned to do one last round of security checks in the wedding venue before the wedding party, and the guests were coming in when I saw Sophia. She was standing up by the altar where the ceremony would be held, and she had something in her hands, something small and delicate.

“Put it down!” I commanded.

Immediately, she set the ring that she had been holding back on the pedestal where it had been sitting. She seemed to have something else in her hands, too, but she hid it from me, and I didn’t have a lot of patience for her bullshit right then.

“What are you doing here?”

She scoffed, “What’s the big deal? He has already chosen her and I’ve accepted that fact. Are you saying that I can’t even take a look at the ring? It was supposed to be put on me!”

“You wish!” Brook arrived behind me and said with scorn, “That isn’t just any ring! Your Majesty chose this ring as some- thing special just for her. You will never, ever have any chance to wear it, no matter what!”

I knew how the ceremony worked. The couple would choose something special as a token of their love. This ring was the first real gift that the king gave to his mistress when

he confessed his affection to her, and now it will solidify their promise to stay together.

It wasn’t just any ordinary wedding ring.

“Stay out of it, you lowly servants!” Sophia shouted at us. “You have no idea what you’re talking about! He loves me, not that stupid bitch.”

Just then, the high priest came out. Although Sophia swore and grumbled, she did move to the back corner of the room. Seeing that the ridiculous woman no longer posted a threat, Brook and I also backed away.

I kept an eye on Sophia; her hands were in her pockets. It seemed strange that she’d wear a gown with pockets, but she was. Everything about her was peculiar. She shouldn’t have even been there. But the guests started to enter the venue

and I didn’t want to cause a scene.

I was close enough. If she dared to cause trouble, I’d be able to take control of her immediately.

Warren appeared next to the high priest. My brother had always been a good-looking guy, and today, he looked even more regal and outstanding. Would Ciana really fall in love with that handsome face? I shook my head and forced myself to focus back on the security of the wedding instead.

The music started and there she was, walking gracefully

toward the altar.

I didn’t notice how beautiful Ciana looked in her wedding gown as she stood at the front of the chapel, next to my brother. I refused to notice how that flowing white gown hugged her in all of the right places and made her legs look so
