Chapter 58: THE DAY OF THE CEREMONY (4)
Dawn felt overwhelmed with the attention that she got from all the people inside the main hall. How many were there? Five hundred? Seven hundred people? The room was dead silent. She could hear her own heart beating so fast in her ears.
The dress that she was wearing felt heavier than before, as if someone sewed additional fabric to the trail of her dress. She didn’t think she could take another step.
Her hands were clammy and she was having this imagination that the small bouquet of daisy flowers that she was holding started withering in her hands.
[I think she is going to cry.] Zander said through the mind link, he was standing on the highest platform, ready to bless this union and crown Dawn as a princess, but after a minute, he realized that woman couldn’t take another step under the pressure.
Zander was not the only one, who realized that, of course, Zenith could also tell.
[Hey! You are not allowed to go get her!] Zander frowned behind his golden mask when he saw his brother walk toward Dawn to get her instead.
However, Zenith closed the mindlink and Zander couldn’t complain when that was what he did.
Zenith came to get Dawn, she indeed looked like she was going to cry. The expression she made looked more like she would go to the gallows, instead of the ceremony of their union.
Dawn’s eyes widened to see Zenith walk toward her, he did it with ease, even under so many eyes, as people wondered what he was going to do.
