The next morning, I woke up to the sound of bustling activity echoing through the castle corridors. Today was the day before our wedding, and I knew it would be filled with final preparations and last-minute details. I stretched, feeling the excitement and nervous energy bubbling up inside me.
"Morning," I whispered to Leora, who was still half-asleep beside me.
"Morning," she mumbled, snuggling closer. "Big day today."
"Yep. Time to get everything perfect," I said, giving her a quick kiss before slipping out of bed.
As I dressed, I could hear voices and laughter coming from outside our room. The castle was alive with activity, servants and family members running around, making sure everything was ready for the big day. I took a deep breath, bracing myself for the chaos that was sure to come.
I stepped out into the hallway, immediately greeted by my sisters, who looked equally excited and frazzled.
