RECOMMENDED SONG: Willow By Taylor Swift ~????

Isabella barely heard Cedric's words. Her eyelashes fluttered shakingly and she had to bite down her tongue hardly to hold back her emotions. No matter how much she was strong from outside, she still had emotions. His cries still rang in her ears before leaving her soul and sometimes she had nightmare of that vision.

The more Isabella didn't answer him back, the more Cedric felt guilty. Perhaps he wasn't worthy of anyone's love. Whoever loved him dearly, they all faced the same tragic ending. Sometimes he even questioned the reason of his birth.

Why was he different from others?

Cedric pressured on her plams more hardly and snapped her back to reality. Knowing that he was waiting for an answer, Isabella formed into a faint smile and comforted his hesitation with her soft,calm voice,

" You didn't kill my husband, Cedric. You killed a culprit. So don't blame yourself."

Cedric smiled back awkwardly and changed the subject at once. He clapped his hands together and soon a maid appeared with a palate of jewelries. Cedric beckoned with a doting smile,

" Won't you choose ornaments for my bride?"

The smile on his face really warmed Isabella's heart. She teased before reaching for the palate,

" Looks like you are very much impatient. What will happen to your beauties outside then?"

Cedric sighed in relief when he was rewarded with her beaming smile. Since she was pregnant, a bad mood could affect the baby. He replied with a chuckle,

" Her mother has already made me taking a vow that I won't touch a single woman except her daughter. I had to accept that."

Isabella's mouth agaped in disbelief. She couldn't believe her ears that Cedric had actually accepted their proposal even with this condition. Isabella finally reached on the conclusion that this girl had a great effect on her brother. She couldn't wait to meet such powerful girl.

_WHITE CASTLE, DALASTIA_

Ethan summoned Seth's father early in the morning who was already very ashamed of his son's behavior. Although he still hoped that Ayra would stick to his son but knowing that her marriage was fixed with the king of Basarisk, he was lost. With a dissapointed heart, he had to leave the castle with his head down. As a punishment, he was removed from his position for one year. Needless to say that his whole family was invited in Ayra's engagement and wedding ceremony. In a word, Seth was invited too.

The castle was in uproar since the morning. Ethan and Aaron both joined in preparation including the boys who was already shedding tears thinking that Ayra would leave them very soon.

As the preparation continued on the hallway, a middle aged woman accompanied by three maids rushed in. As soon as she entered, the staffs all bowed their heads in front of her and saw her blue veins.

Ethan glanced at the way and greeted the woman with a smile,

" Mother, you came back finally."

Former Queen Melinda pouted and huffed angrily while looking around at the decorations,

" How dare you fix my granddaughter's marriage without telling me? What happened to that Seth boy?"

Ethan knew that his mother was going to make a fuss. He walked over to her and explained patiently while leading her inside the room,

" Calm down, mother! Everything happened in rush. Even we didn't expect this wedding. Ayra suddenly changed her mind and wanted to marry the king of Basarisk. He came here as a guest and proposed us to marry Ayra directly. Since Ayra was assertive too, we couldn't deny at the end."

Melinda's eyes dialeted a little at the mention of Basarisk. She heard about their influence a lot but didn't expect that one day her granddaughter would become their queen. Her features relaxed a little when she knew who the groom was. She scoffed arrogantly and boasted of herself,

" Finally, my baby has taken a right decision. Who would marry a typical person like that boy? She sure takes after me. You have made a right decision Ethan."

Melinda never liked Seth from the beginning. In her vision, she always felt that Seth was stick to Ayra only because of her prestigious status in the kingdom. Ethan shook his head helplessly. Many years had passed but his mother still valued position,status above everything. Well, who could blame her? She had to become the queen right after her marriage.

Ayra was still asleep in her chamber. Since she had stayed up till late night, her body was tired and wanted to sleep longer. But she was awakened by a yelling voice and the door of her room brust opening.

She shot up to sit straight and was still panting heavily. Widening her eyes apart, she exclaimed with joy when she saw the person rushing inside,

" Aunty Siemus!"

Siemus stretched out her hands and pulled Ayra into a tight hug before chirping enthusiastically,

" Baby!! Wow! You are getting married! We all were urged by your mom early in the morning."

Ayra giggled in her embrace and tilted her head up unhappily saying,

" You didn't come back visit me for a long time. Why? Is it because I am a grown up lady now?"

Siemus pinched on her nose teasingly and assured with a smile,

" Yes but now I am going to stick to you for a long time. Your mother has asked me to accompany you in Basarisk."

Ayra's eyes dialeted in excitement as she exclaimed with joy,

" Really? You are going to stay with me like the past? That's awesome! We will have a lot of fun."

Siemus hummed in response and suddenly her expression turned serious. Looking down at Ayra, she asked with worry,

" But baby, why did you change your mind? What happened between you and Seth?"

Ayra suddenly went silent. Images from last night flashed across her mind and she felt hatred towards Seth. He was literally thinking about consummating their relationship over there. Ayra didn't want to talk about it any longer. Her close people was coming one by one and she wanted to enjoy this moment longer.

Ayra didn't answer her questions and diverted the topic suddenly. Still cuddling in her embrace, she spoke with a sadistic voice,

" Aunty Siemus.. Will sister Anna come? I miss her sometimes. She never visited us after that night."

Siemus fell in dillemma for a while. Giving it a deep thought, she responded reasonabley,

" She shouldn't miss your wedding day at least. I believe that this time, she will definitely come."

Ayra sighed dropping her head down silently,

" Hmm! I just hope that she will come. Or I will never talk to her when she comes back."

Siemus caressed her head softly and asked with concern,

" Baby, are you happy with this wedding? You can tell me! I have had enough experience regarding this emotional staffs. Your mother made me experienced."

Ayra chuckled bitterly and sighed heavily. Arching her head up, she reasoned casually,

" Since Seth is out of my life, I will definitely have to marry someone sooner or later. It doesn't matter but honestly, I hate the man that I am going to wed tomorrow. He is one kind of narcissistic pervert, trust me."

Siemus laughed at her cursing words and comforted her with a smile,

" Well, Life of Princess is always like that. You never know whom you are going to marry in the future. I just hope that he treats you well, that's it."

" Of course, my master is going to treat her well."

An unfamiliar voice rang in Siemus's ears whose eyes turned sharp immediately. Wandering her eyes around, she spoke with curiousity,

" Who is talking?"

Ayra blinked but didn't hear any voice. Looking here and there, Ayra replied nervously,

" Aunty..I really can't hear anyone speaking.."

Siemus immediately got alerted and replied sternly,

" Then there must be someone hiding in your room. Who dared to hide in here?"
