Chapter 217



The grand wedding was to take place outside in the lush flowery meadows near the marble palace. There were intricate tables and chairs placed in the flowery grass, strings of flowers crisscrosse the sky above, and little fairies and pixies dusted the terrain with golden dust. The entire place looked like something out of a fairytale.

Gareth, Finwe, and the queen had just finished welcoming the visitors to the very important event. Nobility from all the races were in attendance all dressed in golden clothing, the color that represented prosperity and good fortune in elven culture.

The maidens who worked in the palace were floating around assisting guests to their designated tabled while the chefs served each table with a bottle of fine wine and a few bowls of fruits and biscuits to nibble on.

Gareth was from welcoming the Morrells and showing them to their table when someone gently grabbed his shoulder. When he turned around he found Clovis smiling at him, and on his side was the most unlikely of guests. By Clovis’ side stood the small dwarvish woman who had been obsessed with Gareth the longest of times, Julia.. who from what the elven king was told, now went by Darla.

Gareth couldn’t help but notice how Clovis and Darla’s fingers were intertwined and how closely she cuddled up next to him. Even though she looked a little uncomfortable, most likely from standing next to Gareth, she seemed very cozy next to Clovis.

“How are you feeling?” Clovis asked without letting the green eyed woman beside him go. “Are you nervous?”

“I have waited a century to wed this woman, I actually wish things would move a little quicker.”

The two men laughed before Gareth moved his eyes to the green eyed woman who was practically hiding behind Clovis. “Glad you could make it princess Darla of the dwarves, your attendance is really appreciated.”

.....

Trying to hide the embarrassment on her face, Darla gave Gareth a nod and a small smile, “it’s my pleasure..” she whispered in response.

“Hopefully soon that title will change from ‘princess’ to ‘queen’,” Clovis mentioned with an estatic smile on his face.

Gareth had already guessed that these two were together but it was still surprising to say the list. The elven king wondered how they ended up together, and judging from the bite marks Darla was so desperately trying to keep away from Gareth’s line of vision, they were not just together, they were mates.

“Congratulations to both of you,” Gareth responded genuinely. He was happy for Darla, it was about time she found her own happiness as well.

“Well then I should go check on my broteyt quickly before the ceremony starts.” Clovis let Darla’s hand go and gave her a light push towards Gareth. “I’ll leave you two to catch up, I will be back momentarily.”

Darla almost protested when Clovis turned to live but decided not to, she had promised him after all, that she would finally bury the hatchet over her past altercations with Gareth. She had a lot to apologize for and she had to do it.

“So.. you and Clovis huh?” Gareth asked in amusement. “I have to say that took me a little by surprise.”

Darla’s hand went to her neck and trailed her fingers on the mark, “yes.. he is a good man. I know we are probably the most unlikely of couples but he treats me well and I love him.”

“And I can tell he adores you as well,” Gareth responded with a smile that made Darla blush a little. “Well then, I hope you both enjoy yourselves..”

“Gareth wait!”

The handsome elf turned back around and found Darla facing the ground and clutching her dress.

“I’m sorry..” she mumbled.

Gareth knew exactly what she was apologizing for, and truth is he had never even blamed her for it so there was nothing to forgive. Infatuation was blinding and made people so t he craziest of things, I mean look at Elric. Hearing Darla say the words ‘I’m sorry’ was more that he had bargained for. He was actually happy with her just coming to his wedding, that was proof enough that she had truly found herself and in the process found someone who loved that side of her without a second thought.

“Don’t..” Gareth responded before Julia could apologize further. “You need not apologize. It’s alright, what is in the past should remain where it is, in the past.” He pointed towards Clovis who was taking to his brother while stealing glances at Darla, “it’s time to focus on the future now, and yours is over there eyeing a bottle of my best wine.”

Darla’s lips curved into a big smile. She curtsied and thanked Gareth before making her way to where Clovis was standing.

Gareth nodded in approval when the silver haired man wrapped his arm around Julia lovingly and gave her a quick kiss. It was such a beautiful thing, having all these people here with nothing but love filling the air. The handsome kind ceased his musing and turned to the man who was tugging his collar.

“We should go up front.” Aiden wore the same black ensemble as Gareth and had his now long red hair died back in a slick ponytail. “Our beautiful brides will be arriving be arriving shortly.”

“Was it necessary for you to wear the same clothing as me?” Gareth teased the nosferatu prince, “it’s embarrassing.”

Aiden threw his head back and laughed heartily before smacking Gareth playfully on the back, “this was your mother’s idea you pointy eared bastard.”

Gareth had actually never heard Aiden laugh before, as a matter of fact, he couldn’t remember if he had ever had been seen him genuinely smile. This was what a woman’s love could do, it could make your or break you, and both Aiden and Gareth had been on both sides of the spectrum.

Zander walked to the two grooms and gave them a nod, “it’s time, let’s get you two married..”

When the maidens were done dressing Melissa up, one of them led her to a dressing mirror and smiled bashfully. “Goodness princess, you look absolutely gorgeous.. you probably put every elf to shame. His majesty is so lucky.”

Melissa looked up at the mirror and gasped at her reflection, was that even her in the mirror? The long form fitting golden dress hugged her maternity curved very beautifully, it was sleeveless but had soft golden fabrics that were connected at her wrists with two golden bands and the same way at her cuffs, making her look like she had fairy wings.

Her hair was let loose and a wreath of golden flowers sat on her head, matching the golden earrings and necklace that dazzled her ears and neck.

Melissa brought her hands to her stomach and gasped a second time in awe. The dress did not hide her baby bump at all, instead it did the exact opposite. The area around her tummy unlike the rest of the dress had a sheer golden fabric, showing the little bubble where new life was growing. Melissa thought she didn’t want her tummy to show, but after seeing how amazing this design looked, she wa grateful she was pregnant on her wedding day.

“Princess Estel and the queen will be hear for tut shortly princess,” another maiden spoke with a curtsie, “would you like anything as you wait?”

Melissa shook her head while still staring at her reflection in disbelief, “no I will be alright thank you.”

The three maidens curtsied and exited the room leaving Melissa alone to take in her appearance.

“I bet you’re very happy with yourself?”

Melissa turned around and found Ronda standing at her door giving her a smile that made Melissa frown. “I thought you left Ervelon,” Melissa spoke as she took a step forward.

When Melissa had arrived in Ervelon in preparation for the wedding Ronda had gone into a crazed fit and caused commotion in the palace. For the sake of peace, the queen had sent her away to some settlements outside Ervelon.

“And miss the wedding?” Ronda chuckled, “I would never.” The woman eyed Melissa from head to toe before turning to leave, “you may have won the battle vampire, but the war is far from over.”

Melissa frowned and balled up her fists, what war was this woman even talking about?? Melissa was getting married to Gareth today and he loved her, and on top of all that, she was carrying his child! The nosferatu princess cursed and sat down on her bed, she was not going to let someone like Ronda ruin what was supposed to be the best day of her life. She would deal with that little maiden later.
