'' Princess Ashlyn'' Dio greeted.
'' Prince Alen said to use these clothes and jewels for the engagement ceremony. These are all thing from Queen Eliza to her daughters-in-law'' said Dio.
'' Say I thanked Prince Alen''
------- In The Queen Helena's Chamber
'' Queen mother, you can't let that happen. will you wait for a village girl to become empress?'' Olivia shouted angrily.
'' That's true. but who can against prince Alen's order?'' Queen said.
'' Is Queen mother telling me to wait until that village girl takes my palace? ''
'' Hang on Olivia. Ashlyn needs permission from the king and Queen of Arendelle to become empress. Queen Austria hoping her niece to marry Prince Alen.'' After saying that , a sly smile appeared on Queen's face.
The date of the Engagement arrived.
In the throne hall , all the royal members , all the dukes of royal assembly and the high- ranking generals were gathered.
'' Prince Alen , Crown Prince Of Arendelle Kingdom , has arrived.''
Hearing Alen's arrival , everyone in the throne hall fell silent and greeted him.
The black and blue royal wedding dress was embroidered in gold and had a dragon embroidered in silver. His crown was set with black diamonds and gold. His black hair was tied up and his appearance was as solemn as that of an emperor.
At the palace of Ashlyn , she wore a blue and white royal wedding frock , which was also embroidered with gold thread. She wore jewels made of blue and white diamonds. Her brown hair was pilled back in a simple style and adorned with blue roses. she look like an goddess at that moment.
'' My lady , if Queen Emily was here today , she would be very happy to see you.''
'' I think so too , Anna ''I said standing in front of mirror.
'' My lady , I have taken care of you since childhood. Now I hand you over to someone else. I know that you are suborn. but now going to be a wife. Therefore , learn to obey your husband.'' said Anna.
'' Why am I listening to him? '' I whispered.
'' My lady ? ''
'' Ok... OK.. I got it. '' I said .
----------------
The nervousness on the way to throne hall increased even more as I entered the hall . As I walked forward along the flower- strewn floor , the whispering voices in the hall began to echo in my ears.
'' How can a village girl like this become a empress? ''
'' Has she no shame in ruining her own sister's marriage?''
As soon as she heard those words , tears filled her eyes.
Knowing that Princess was uncomfortable , '' Aham'' Dio cleared his throat.
Alen came to his senses as soon as he heard Dio's sound. It was at that moment that he realized that he had been mesmerized by Ashlyn's beauty for some time.
After the engagement ceremony was over after a while , I went back to mu palace. It would take several days to get to the kingdom of Arendelle, so I dressed in a light suit and went to Grant palace. firstly Alen greeted father King and Queen and looked at me. No matter how cruel they were to me , I greeted the king father as well as Queen Helena because they were my family.
'' Do you think you're going to be a empress? You're going to hell even more than here. I'm eagerly waiting to see who will save you there .'' Queen Helena hugged me sadly and whispered in my ear.
Unable to understand what she said , I looked at her in surprise.
'' Before you engaged Prince Alen , A marriage was arranged for him''
After saying that , Queen Helena wiped the tears from her eyes and looked at Alen '' I hope Prince Alen will take good care of our Ashlyn.''
Then Alen nodded.
[ What ? A marriage has been arranged for Alen. Then why did he want marry me ] various questions came to my mind.
I could not describe the pain I felt at that moment. Alen extended his hand as I was about to get into carriage to leave, but I ignored him and get into carriage. Then he also get into carriage and sat in front of me.
Although several hours have passed since the moment of departure , both of them did not speak a word. I was looking out the window and had fallen asleep without realizing it.
Watching Ashlyn curled up and sleeping like a baby , Alen sat behind her and leaned her head on his chest.
As it was late at night , Dio got off the horse and came to the carriage.
'' Your Highness , I arranged to spend the night at this inn.''
As soon as she heard Dio's voice , Ashlyn opened her eyes. when she suddenly looked up , then realized that she had been sleeping all this time , hugging Alen. At that very moment she distanced herself from him.
'' Did you sleep well ?'' Alen asked leaning Ashlyn. But she got down from the carriage without saying anything and entered the inn.
'' Your Highness , what happened to princess ? she looks angry.'' Dio asked.
'' I can't even imagine what happened to her.'' Alen said looking at the inn.
'' Dio, tell everyone to rest.''
In The Room------
'' Knock..... Knock.... ''
'' Come in''
Then Alen came up to her with dinner. Ashlyn , knowing that Alen had come , went to the window and looked at the sky , pretending to avoid him.
Alen placed the food on the nearby table, '' come and eat something.''
'' I will eat. you go from here. I need be alone for a while.'' Ashlyn said without looking at Alen.
