RECOMMENDED SONG: Die For You By The Weekend ~????

Ayra found herself exasperating at the way that he kept holding her in his dark hooded eyes. A smugness could be seen in his dark eyes that made her heart racing no less than like a racing horse. Even the sound of her heart jumping was so evident in the year that she could detect her own beating sound.

Cedric spent his precious time on her flustered face that kept raising panickness as each moment passed between them. Ayra muttered incoherently,

" I..I.. have people to dress me up..You don't have to worry.."

She spoke before looking behind at the doorway and hoped that Siemus would appear anytime soon. But there was no trace of her coming nearby. Cedric paused before beaming into a quirky smile. Raising his eyebrows up amusingly, he commented frantically,

" I insist."

Ayra had to swallow hard after his audacious word. Even without hearing out his true intentions, she could tell that he had come with ulterior motive. So far her intitution told her that he couldn't come over to her without his sole purpose. Ayra replied with a stubborn voice and assured that they stood at least few metres away from each others,

" I don't want it. Just speak what do you want now."

Cedric's lips curled up dangerously after her rude tone. He stepped ahead despite her reluctantance and murmured looking deep through her stunning eyes,

" I don't like being ordered. Hope, you keep it in your mind, love?"

Ayra gulped a little and looked away from his threatening eyes that somehow made her quivering in little. Sensing her nerves getting tensed up, Cedric added with a cringy smirk and closed the gap between them again without any notice,

" All you have to do is just ask and use your honeyed words to ask me. Why do you insist on fighting with me?"

Ayra growled in a low voice,

" Simply because you are the person that I never wanted to get married."

Cedric beamed into an amusing smile and replied back,

" It's too late. The day I laid my eyes on you, I knew that I needed you the most in this life."

Ayra exhaled deeply and urged pushing her back pressed against the dresser nervously,

" Please don't embarrass me, anymore. Someone might enter anytime soon."

Cedric shrugged shaking his shoulders off,

" I don't mind."

Ayra rebuked sharply lifting her hazel eyes up,

" But I do. So get back to your room. You can speak to me after the wedding."

Cedric showed no sign of leaving and continued standing on his foot. Beaming into an another smirk, he amused opening the box from his hand,

" I actually came to deliver you this but as you were rude to me, I changed my mind."

Ayra blurted casting a curious look at the colorful box in his hand,

" What.. what do you mean?"

Cedric only smiled without giving her a word and diped his fingers down inside the box. With a slight pool, a gold chain was pulled out from the box under her watchful eyes. Ayra was stunned before looking suspicious as he started to approach her again after throwing away the box leisurely.

Before she could dodge away, Cedric gripped her slender waist sensually and made her turning around effortlessly. Having her back pressed against his firm chest, Ayra gasped parting her lips apart astonishingly.

Captivated in his posseive embrace, Ayra started to exasperate unknowingly then felt his arms running through her back. She stiffled, wanted to move away but his other hand was still caged around her waist.

Her breathing hitched, attention was alarming when she felt him swimming forward to touch her navel. Her shamise was short, barely covered her chest and left her slender waistline to showcase. Her stomach deepened inside when his slender fingers grazed around her navel.

She gritted to not show off her reaction and was having hard time to control her whimpers. Cedric who was fully aware of her reaction blew hot air on her face from back on purpose and whispered sweetly,

" A little gift from my elder sister."

Ayra slightly frowned at his words and waited for his words to resume. But without saying anything, she felt a slight pull from her back. She gasped sensing a metallic chain around her waist. Her face flustered at thought of her own imaginations that went deeper.

She whispered nervously,

" You.. you could have just handed to me.."

Cedric breathed heavily. Her sweet rosy smell burned the forbidden desire that he held down inside his chest. With a bit struggling, he replied hoarsely,

" I thought so but you played hard. So it's my time to teach you some lessons."

Ayra wished that she could roll back her eyes at him. She opened her mouth to say something but the sudden force of opening the door broke apart them astoundingly.

" Oh my! ", Siemus exclaimed before turning her back around and started to mumble shyly,

" I haven't seen anything..I haven't heard anything.."

Returning back to reality, Ayra jumped aside shyly and shot Cedric a cold glare which face showed that he was genuinely irritated. With a helpless sigh, Cedric turned around and spoke to Siemus tentatively,

" Aunty Siemus! We were just talking."

Siemus muttered holding back the laughter that she needed badly right away,

" Yeah,yeah! I saw everything, Your Highness. It's just..You can continue this talk after few hours. Right now, I am running fast to prepare her for your wedding."

Cedric forced an awkward smile before heading off,

" Then I won't take your time anymore."

Siemus finally laughed out loud after his departure and walked over to Ayra whose face was blushing. She couldn't help but teasing a little after reaching out for the long gown,

" Baby..I never knew that your husband is so romantic."

Ayra shrugged biting her lips down gently,

" He..he just came to deliver me a present from his sister. You think too much.."

Siemus faked to fall in deep thoughts and murmured lowly,

" Hmmm! Is that so? Then why did I watch you two embracing so affectionately?"

Ayra's face reddened further as she rebuked powerlessly,

" Aunty...Can you do it fast..We are getting out of time.."

Siemus finally stopped teasing her anymore and went back to help her in dressing up.

The wedding venue was set up outside a little distance away from the main castle. The prominent figures from the kingdom were all present including Ayra's maternal grandmother who couldn't hold back her excitement anymore.

Alexander and Arthur were in charge of managing the wedding venue. The twin brothers worked side by side and captured everyone's attention easily. Suited in a black coat, they both emitted a noble aura which charmed the young girls who came with their parents.

Alexander took a final glance of the surrounding and walked ahead to stand beside the stage. Arthur spoke darting his eyes back and forth curiously,

" Alex, have you seen Elizabeth? Where did she go? Why hasn't she arrived yet?"

Only then Alexander looked up to swipe his gaze around attentively. Having not seen Elizabeth nearby, his brows tightened a little. He couldn't help but feeling little guilty for misbehaving with her yesterday.

His attention was interrupted when one of the guard shouted the arrival of Ayra from the backyard. Everyone shot their attention back on the way eagerly. Alexander and Arthur quickly rushed over to accompany their sister towards the stage.

Ayra was standing with her long veil followed by Elizabeth who was the bridesmaid of her wedding. Actually she had come a long time ago but didn't wish to meet Alexander after the argument. She found that she was being too nagging and vowed to maintain a distance from him.

Arthur commented with a broad smile,

" You look amazing today, Elizabeth."

Elizabeth thanked him with a smile but didn't cast a single glance at Alexander who was staring at her deeply. Indeed Elizabeth was looking stunning at her pink gown today. Her black hairs were longing down lazily and she naturally gave off an angelic aura.

Ayra stood at the end of venue for her fathers who couldn't wait to walk with her to the stage. She wanted everyone around and asked Alexander, Arthur and Nathan to follow her afterwards. Nathan didn't come yet.

Arthur walked in front of Ayra to hug her emotionally. Finally having Elizabeth alone for a while, Alexander coughed before sliding beside her hesitantly. Noticing no reaction from her face, his eyes twinkled before scratching his brain hard whether to initiate a conversation or not.

Finally giving up his egoistic mood, he mumbled loud enough to reach her ears,

" You..you look beautiful today..."

Elizabeth "...."

She pretended that she didn't hear anything and maintained a cold face. Alexander narrowed his gaze deeply and again spoke stressing on his words,

" You look amazing.. today.."

Elizabeth "...."

Again a dense silence from her!

Alexander grew anxious and muttered again impatiently,

" You look gorgeous..aah.. beautifully angelic today..I..mean it.."

Elizabeth "..."
