Amelia stared at her daughter red face, wondering what could have happened?. Had the king slapped or assaulted her daughter?
She got worried and began to pray to her God that it wasn't what she was thinking.
Meanwhile peter had stepped aside for Aiden to address his people.
"Great citizens, I thank you all for coming to witness and partake of my wedding, so..", he turned to peter who handed him a glass of wine. He took it and faced the people, raising the glass up, "so, let make a toast to this wedding",. Others lifted their cups up, each with different thoughts.
They all drank from the glass of wine in their hand including the king.
Lillia who was a little bit behind watched all this, her blue eyes staring at the huge back of the man she was going to spend the rest of her life with. Then he suddenly turned round, looked at her and pulled her to stand by his side.
"Your new queen, queen lillia",he announced. There was cheers around, many raising up their glasses but not all of them were happy,some girls held envious look at there faces, some where even bold to glare at her.
"Look at her, she isn't even worthy of the king. Her dress is so old fashioned", they murmured among themselves.
Lillia felt cold shiver run down her spine, she wasn't used to this, all eyes on her. She searched among the crowds till she saw a very particular eyes, her body went overwhelmed with relieve. she was so happy that she waved at her mother even when the people was still cheering at her.
Every one was shocked at this, even the envious one's smiled intently, happy that the queen had just made a fool of herself, maybe the king would not be happy and choose them instead.
As for Aiden his eyes narrowed as he followed her line of sight, wondering who she was waving at, his eyes was quick to find the person, then he saw her, a lady, the older version of his new wife. The lady was still as pretty as his wife, the same brown shining hair, blue eyes and same cherry like face. But there was still something that made his wife more pretty. He turned to see his wife and he could see that she was happy, not minding the murmurs around, completely oblivious to her surrounding. He opened his mouth to speak when lillia suddenly moved, turning around she headed for the stairs leading downstairs.
"What is she doing?",
"She haves no respect for the king"
"Such act, she doesn't suit the throne",
People had different things to say about her as she ran towards her mother.
Amelia had a look of shock as she saw her daughter running towards her, she shook her head but none the same when I daughter hugged her, she hugged her back. She didn't know that she missed her little one like this,but when lillia pulled out of the hug, Amelia began to panic.
"What did you do? Why did you come down? The king would be furious at us. We just humiliated the crown", Amelia said worried.
It was at that moment lillia got her self and realize what she had done.
"What do we do, I can't just go back up there", lilla said.
The both of them knew that everyone was watching at them both, insulting them none stop.
"Don't worry, the king might not be that furious", Amelia tried given her daughter hope but Lillia knew when things where wrong or right.
But then the king deep voice echod out, making both mother, daughter and everyone to look up to the platform. The king had his earlier expression on his face, he wasn't angry neither mad.
"Enjoy the ball, even though none of you had never seen me, be rest assure that I don't restrain some rules in ball parties", then he turned around and left. Immediately when the curtain where drawn, an angry expression flashed at his face.
"My milord", peter voiced bowing his head.
"Whose that lady? ",
"The Queen mother, milord",
Aiden already had his guessed.
He walked right into the ball room
Numerous girls who saw him walk in began to walk his way, trying to get his attention but they couldn't because of the guards following the king, pushing any obstacle from his way. Aiden eyes locked into some peculiar blue eyes, he didn't look away and neither did she,he continued walking towards the mother and daughter.
He soon got to them, lillia mother was quick to bow at him and began to plead on her daughter behalf.
"Am so sorry my king, I apologize for my daughter earlier rudeness",she pleaded. Aiden eyes finally broke eye contact reluctantly, there was something about her eyes that pulled him in, the eyes seemed to promise him many things.
He looked at the older woman, a smile flashed at his face, causing the woman to calm a bit.
"No need to worry. Now if you will please give me your daughter to have the first dance with".
The older woman immediately released her daughter, pushing her towards the king even.
"There's no need to", the woman said smiling.
Lillia eyes was locked at the king's not looking away from it, even when he held her hand and pulled her to the dance floor. By the time she finally release herself from the daze his hands were wrapped tightly at her waist, his face barely away from her's.
"You seemed to be the bold one", he spoke to her, causing his hot breath to land on her lip. His eyes trailed downward looking at her glossy lips,how he wished to dig his teeth into her lip. Lillia didn't answer him, her hands that where at his shoulders wrap tight. His hands that where in her waist seemed to burn her up.
She looked away, avoiding his gaze and everything. She just wanted to leave this place and run into her mother's embrace.
Suddenly, Aiden launched his lips at her cheek and bit hard on it. Lillia face went into red, her heart increased it beat. His lips that where on her cheeks burned. The fact that people where watching them only made her body burn, she wished the ground would just turn and swallow her. With the speed of lightening she turned to face him with a very stern expression.
"Much better, this would serve as a good punishment for your earlier action", he smirked at her.
Lillia jaw dropped, she thought that he might have forgiven her.
She swallowed and actually did something she would have never done in her right stage of mind, she dug her nails into his body, making sure to dug up a little bit of blood before she released his skin. In the process, Aiden didn't even flinched as he just moved gracefully with her.
Suddenly the mask man walked up to them and whispered in Aiden's ear.
He suddenly stopped dancing and his hands on her waist tighten. Lillia began to worry, did something happen?
The mask man left and Aiden eyes returned to her,
"Let get you to your room", He didn't even wait for her to reply as he had started pushing her up the stairs.
"What of my mother?"
"Peter would take care of her", he spoke as if he was in a hurry.
"But I need to say goodbye",she began to panic. The fear of living her mother was hard to bare, talk more of letting her leave without saying goodbye.
"You will tell her tomorrow, now stop resisting and follow me",he said giving her a deadly glare.
Lillia swallowed hard, even though she was happy that her mother was staying over, she couldn't help but wonder what peter told her husband.
Her husband? The more she thought about it the more her body seemed to react to it. Looking at the well buildt body of his, she wanted to rub her hands on them.
Soon he took her to a room and suddenly locked her in it.
Lillia panicked, why did he lock up?
"Let me out of here, let me out of here", but her screams weren't reaching anyone. She soon got tired and looked around the large room.
There was a huge king size canopy bed on the left side of the room, the room was painted in white, a huge bookshelf was placed at the other right of the room, which was close to a door which she believed must be the bathroom. There were another door too which seemed to be a bit smaller than the other ones, she couldn't guess what that one was going to be.
Walking deep, her eyes took in more of the room, candle light gave the room it glow and the white curtains flowed and danced with the night breeze, the moon outside reflected it color at the curtain, the room was beautiful, giving the vibe of where a man could just cuddle with his wife but Lillia couldn't think about that now, her body was weak and her eyes was still filled with tears. She laid down at the soft bouncy bed and began to wail, crying herself to sleep.
Two hours later...
The door opened a two pairs of heavy leg walked into the room, walking towards the sleeping beauty who still sniffed in her sleep. Aiden green eyes stared at the small frame in his bed, a person he was going to share the bed with. She looked innocent as she slept, her baby hairs sticking into her cheeks. Looking at the cheek where he has bitten, he could see the bite mark on her face. Looking down his eye lingered at her lip that was pouting. She looked really innocent and cute.
He didn't know how he could keep himself in check. But looking at her, he felt something that he had never felt before.
Since he saw her at the passage way, he felt really intrigued at her person, her blue eyes was so beautiful that all he wanted to do was to look at her.
Pulling away, he walked towards the curtain and opened it. His green eyes over looking all the green grass that matched his eyes colour. All his life he has always been a self because but thinking that he had a new person, a new wife, who was given to him by his late parents. He has a new family, a stranger was going to share a room with him even though it didn't suit well with him. He lifted his hand and fisted it at his silver long hair, that curled at his front.
