Medieval Wedding Gowns

A withering flower at devil's mercy

“These bedchambers have missed your scent.” His voice, low and rough, made her pulse quicken. Her fear surged, boundless, as he closed the stained glass doors behind him. “Please… let me go,” she pleaded, trembling as he pulled her close, his touch burning against her skin. “You fled this place while carrying my child. Why did you come back?” he murmured, his lips trailing down her neck as they had so many times before. “I… don’t know,” she managed, her voice barely a whisper. Luciana Mircea de Amanécer, princess of the Holy Empire that ruled the skies, had once lived in a world of beauty and privilege—a devoted father, joyful sisters, wealth, and a loving fiancé. Yet that life shattered with a single conversation. One day, her father appeared in her chambers, eyes solemn, bearing news that upended her world. “You will be married,” he said, but the name wasn’t that of the man she cherished. Instead, she was to be wed to the ruthless crown prince of the rival Demon Empire, an alliance forged to quell the simmering tensions between their kingdoms. “Father, please…” she begged. “My child,” he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. “It is your duty as the firstborn princess. This marriage will protect the realm… and your little sisters.” For the first time in her life, Luciana saw him bow to her, his plea wordless but clear. Yielding to her father’s desperate request, she accepted her fate. In a single day, she went from princess to wife, her dreams abandoned and her future reshaped. But the white wedding gown was soon stained crimson, marking her descent into a life she could never have anticipated. Could she learn to accept a man for whom compassion was an unfamiliar luxury, or would the love she had left behind rise to rescue her?

Everyone knew Ceres as the villain in her half-sister Ciena’s love story with Ryzel. She did everything to sabotage their relationship...so much so that on their wedding day, where she was supposed to be the maid of honor, she arrived wearing her dream wedding gown, a dress far more extravagant than the bride’s. Spoiled by their father, the wealthiest man in the country, neither the bride nor groom could do anything but endure the humiliation. The ceremony was filled with whispers, but Ceres only smiled, completely unbothered that she was ruining the most important day of her sister’s life. However, as they stepped outside the church, waiting for their cars to arrive, chaos erupted. A truck, its brakes failing, was heading straight for the crowd. People scattered in panic, desperate to escape. Ceres should have been safe. But amid the chaos, she noticed a small girl crying in the truck’s direct path...one that no one else seemed to see. Without hesitation, she ran, pulling the child to safety. She thought she had enough time to escape, but her long gown got caught on something. She couldn’t move. The truck hit her, crushing her under its weight. Even as she lay dying, she wasn’t thinking of herself. Her fading gaze searched the crowd until she saw the child safe in someone’s arms. A weak smile formed on her lips. And then...darkness. Ceres had done too many terrible things in her life. Surely, hell awaited her. But when she opened her eyes again, she was in a different world. She had been reborn as the young widow Empress of a crumbling kingdom...a woman who shared her name and face. But unlike her previous life of luxury, she now ruled over a dying empire on the brink of ruin. What did a spoiled brat like her know about leading a struggling nation? She had spent her past life wasting money, tormenting servants, and looking down on others. Now, she was forced to survive in a world where power, deception, and war reigned supreme. Would she rise as a true Empress, or would she fall just as she did before?

A Lavish Wedding: Tycoon's Pampered Bride

She supported the entire company through the arranged marriage. Five years later, she only received the brutal truth: "The only reason I married you is that it was the condition my grandpa set for granting me the inheritance of the company." She was overwhelmed by sadness and anger. Then, suddenly, he appeared, extended a helping hand to her, and said coldly, "Listen, you hurt those who hurt you. That's what fairness is." Since then, she found herself trapped in this complex relationship with this tycoon... She tried to resist, saying, "We're not suited for each other." He replied, "You've already tried whether we're suited or not. Now you want to leave? That's being irresponsible." "I'm divorced." "How can we get married if you're not divorced? Bigamy is a crime." Abandoned, she surrendered herself to him, a man of immense power, who gave her the whole world. He dotes on her so much that no one dares to bully her... [Highlight One] "You know what? In love, those who are not loved are considered mistresses." A woman taunted her. "So what? I'm the legal wife. Until I'm divorced, you'll always be the mistress." She replied indifferently. Although she disdained the title, she wouldn't allow herself to be insulted. "So be polite to me. Maybe when I'm in a good mood, I'll give you this position as a bone to a pitiful dog." That woman instantly felt extremely ashamed. [Highlight Two] "Boss, today is the opening of Madam's gallery, but her rival's also opening their business on the same day. What should we do?" His assistant asked. "Tell all the media that I'm going to propose to her today, and anyone who attends will receive a red envelope." He sneered. As soon as the news was released, all the media came to her gallery, and all the billboards in the city were live streaming this grand and romantic proposal. As the sky rained with roses, he appeared, holding a red rose and kneeling in front of her, saying, "Marry me." This man, who had never been known for his romantic gestures, suddenly gave her a surprise! It moved her to tears...

She owed him after all... ~ EXCERPT Archie's eyes darkened when he saw her stumbling out of the wine cellar, a bottle of wine in one hand and her night robe, in the other. She was literally half naked. "Hey..." her greeting came out in a slur, and that was all he needed to know she was drunk. Very drunk, at that. "Why?" he asked simply, knowing she would interpret his question as she usually did. "I...I visited them today. The flowers on their stones were already wilted and...and...it broke me. I wanted to be happy and at the same time, I wanted to cry," Avery replied, inhaling short wisps of air before she continued, "Then I found the cellar." "Did it work?" She shook her head slowly in reply, lifting her head up in time to see a mischievous smirk curl on his lips. "Don't be sad, Baby girl. I happen to know a way to make you cry and keep you excited at the same time," he said. "Really?" "Wanna try it, Mama?" Avery nodded, slowly but firmly as he closed the distance between them. As he promised, she did cry...in pleasure. Note: This book is participating in the Cupid's Quill Contest. Your support is highly appreciated!
