Chapter 280: Love and Happiness
At Stewart Manor, Kingdom of Ebodia
The day came and went, and before Krisha even knew it, the day of her own wedding had finally come. She knew it would happen eventually, but she didn’t think that it would happen this quickly.
Well, she wanted it to happen, but still. She didn’t even think that she would get married to a vampire of all people.
"It’s really happening," Krisha whispered to herself as she looked at herself in the mirror. "I’m going to get married..."
As the servants around her went and tended to her every need as the bride, Krisha couldn’t help but stare at herself in the mirror as she wore her wedding gown. It was her mother’s and it fit her perfectly. Even she could admit that she looked stunning in a wedding dress, and she could only imagine what Taro would say the moment he saw her.
[Where are you?] Taro suddenly contacted her through their bond. [Everybody’s already waiting for your arrival. I can’t wait to see you too...]
Krisha felt her brow twitch even as her heart hammered with excitement. She wasn’t at all mad that she was being called up, but the fact that Taro could get to her through their bond somehow felt like they were cheating the spirit of the traditional wedding.
[I’ll be right there,] Krisha quickly replied as she spun on her heels to check on herself. [Also, how many times do I have to tell you not to contact me through the bond today? Just because we can technically talk to each other while not seeing each other doesn’t mean we should do it.]
It was in Ebodian tradition after all that a bride and groom shouldn’t see each other until they were both in front of the altar. While it was recently being forgone by most people simply because they’d rather see their spouse before they got married during their big day, Krisha honestly thought that it was a rather exciting and important tradition. Sure, they were technically still doing things right by preparing in their own separate rooms, but the spirit of the tradition should at least be preserved.
