"Sorry," the priest said, trying to calm his persistent cough.
Ronan smiled lopsidedly at the surprised face of Priest Elis.
"Sorry, Your Majesty. I didn't mean to be rude."
"It does not matter."
Priest Elis tried to calm his heart from being shocked and thought calmly.
"Do you want to get married, Princess Arielle?"
Priest Elis turned to Arielle, whose face was glorious. The girl nodded slowly in agreement which made the man smile.
"This news is really shocking, but I'm so happy to hear it."
Priest Elis told the truth. After a long search for a queen candidate, eventually, the position would be filled again. He thought getting Princess Arielle as their queen was a gift in itself. From the first time he met Princess Arielle, the man knew that the girl was very special.
