The Dark Side Of Fate

161 The Bluemoon

-Amelia-

Leo did not come home, and I learned that was the tradition. We were supposed to be apart for two days, but there wasn’t much time to do anything because of the events that had transpired. The twenty-four hours separation was the best we could get. The omegas came to get me in the morning, and they led me to the same pool room where we had the spa party.

Stephanie was already there. Claudia and Susan joined us a few minutes later. We had some skin and hair treatments. That took some time. Tamia and the others came to check on us, and they told us stories about their experience. Stephanie also shared her story about when she married Maurice.

It took a while, and when we were done, we were ushered to a room to dress up. Our dresses were already there, and the people that would help us get ready were waiting.

Tamia and Linda came to check on us to let us know that the guests had started arriving and Stephanie and Jake would go first before the lords.

Stephanie wore a simple, white lace dress with a bouquet of white roses. Her jewellery was made from white pearls, and her look was somehow vintage and sexy. She had on white stilettos that added to her height and improved her figure. Dominic came to get her. I heard he would be the one giving her away. She was excited and nervous, but she was overwhelmed with joy. Not long ago, the possibility of her getting married on this day was threatened. We had all thought Jake won’t make it, but thanks to Erik, Claudia and her friends, they were able to turn the situation around. I could understand Stephanie’s joy. To her, it will be like a dream come true.

I was sad that I couldn’t witness Stephanie and Jake’s wedding, but I believed it would be beautiful. Hearing the bell go off, I knew the wedding was in progress.

Susan’s father came to inform Susan that he would be giving her away; since Claudia was an orphan, her uncle Norman would give her away. I did not know who would give me away. We waited nervously in the room, waiting for our turn. 2

Two hours later, the bell rang, and I knew it was time.

We made some finishing touches to our outfit and make-up and were ready.

Although we will be wedded at once, I was placed in front of the three of us; Leo and I had the highest office.

Standing alone in front of the line on the way to the tent, felt lonely. I fought to look back at Susan and Claudia, who had someone by their side. I was still wondering how to walk down the aisle alone when Erik came rushing towards us.

“I am sorry, dear. Had to check on something at the lab. Hope I am not too late,” He said, using his hand to adjust his messy hair, and I wondered what he was late for.

“You missed Stephanie’s wedding, but ours is yet to start,” I replied, and he sighed with relief and looped my hand in his. 1 “Well, I am on time then,” He said, and that was when I realised he was the one that would give me away.

“Since Luis isn’t here, I believe I am the next person,” He said proudly, and I laughed with joy and relief.

“You didn’t think we would allow our princess, the heir to our bloodline, to walk down the aisle by herself, did you?” He said, and I shook my head, fighting my tears.

It was finally time.

walked towards the tent’s entrance, and my heart began to palpitate with anxiety and eagerness. I had not seen Leo in twenty-four hours, but it felt like forever. I wondered if he would like the dress. I wondered if he would like what he saw, what he would tell me, and how he would react. Questions

My eyes searched for Leo, who was waiting patiently at the end of the aisle. The
