Chapter 49 - 47 (2/2)
It was a privilege for them and they were all proud of this, and what's more, they didn't have the families of the bride and groom present.
Irene's parents had died a long time ago and because of them she had no one from her family except Belserion, whom she considered to be her family.
As for Shin, in this world, apart from Irene, he didn't have any...
Thinking about it, the images of his family on Earth flashed through his mind.
His eyes were filled with nostalgia and pain.
But it didn't last long, Shin shook his head and turned those images out of his head.
This was not the time to think about this kind of thing, he doesn't want to spoil his marriage.
Shin walked down the red carpet with a full and radiant smile.
The guests looked at him with admiration and kindness.
Some women blushed against their will.
And the men looked at him with adoration.
He continued on his way, smiling at the guests until he reached the end of the carpet.
At the end, the wall was completely open in the shape of an arch and gave way to a large balcony which had a view of the whole kingdom.
On reaching the balcony, Shin walked towards the railing and had a view of the whole kingdom and its distant horizons.
A superb view.
And lowering his head, he could see all the citizens who looked at him with reverence and respect.
An ounce of pride and joy addressed to him blinking in their eyes.
When Shin smiled at this sight, the musicians who were present in the room began to play notes.
The notes were high-pitched and exuded a peaceful and elegant aura.
Shin stood up as he looked at the door through which he himself had entered.
He stared at it with great expectation.
He waited only a few seconds for the door to open and overlook Irene's glorious figure.
At his sight, Shin's eyes sparkled and were misty and glassy.
Shin was speechless and moved, no words could come out of his mouth and be thought.
On Irene's side, she walked towards Shin with a smile and loving eyes showing how drunk she was with him.
At a moment like this, she stopped running and jumped into his embrace.
The music was to the rhythm of her footsteps, the birds were singing seemingly accompanied by the music and the moment seemed eternal and magical.
The guests around the carpet were absorbed by this divine scene and felt as if they were attending the wedding of gods.
After a few seconds, Irene arrived at the side of Shin who reached out to her.
Irene accepted without flinching and took his hand to present herself to him and the citizens.
The citizens waited with unbearable impatience and silence.
But when they saw Irene join Shin, they all thought the same thing.
”It was worth the wait.”
The married couple were complementary and were a divine pair.
The smile on their faces increased even more their breathtaking beauty that made them mute.
After a long admiration and patience, the priest finally arrived to introduce himself behind the couple.
”...
.....
....
...”
”Shin Ai, do you agree to take Irene as your wife?” The priest asked the obvious question.
With a sincere smile, Shin pronounced himself.
”I, Shin Ai, promise before the heavens that I will love and cherish the woman before me for all eternity, I will bear all her problems and sins and let no harm come to her. Thus I wish and accept, Irene Belserion, as my wife”.
The priest turned his head towards Irene and asked her the question.
”Irene Belserion, do you agree to take Shin here present as your husband?”
”I, Irene Belserion, promise that I will always be present for him in life and in death and that I will fill him with all my love. Thus I accept Shin Ai as my husband.”
Irene's words were full of emotion and her face was enchanting.
Afterwards, Shin didn't wait for the priest to start again to make his gesture.
He put his hand in his costume and as soon as his hand came out, a rainbow colour glittered and lit up the surroundings.
The sudden rainbow lighting attracted the attention of everyone, including Irene.
And when their eyes fell on the rainbow light, they were surprised.
The light came from a ring between Shin's fingers.
A dazzling rainbow ring with shades of ocean blue and purple with a small green feather hanging from it.
The ring shone and glittered and its quality and beauty was extraordinary.
It looked like an artefact sculpted by God.
All eyes were riveted and hypnotised by this ring.
All the women were amazed at such a beautiful ring.
They wanted it!
Shin put his hand forward and put the ring on Irene's yearbook.
With eyes wide open towards the ring on her finger, Irene seemed to realise something.
”All those times you got up early and stopped me from seeing what you were doing, it was all to...”
”Yes, I wanted the ring you're wearing to come from me so I decided to make it myself.”
”Sorry for keeping this from you all this time” says Shin with an apologetic smile.
Irene's face began to tighten and tears streamed from her eyes.
The priest, who had also been attracted to the ring, found the moment perfect and decided to utter the sentence.
”I officially announce Irene Ai Belserion and Shin Ai, husband and wife, the bride and groom may kiss each other”.
The priest spoke loudly but did not shout, yet his voice resonated in the air and echoed in everyone's ears.
Irene then jumped in tears into Shin's embrace and sank into a deep and passionate kiss.
*PAN*
*PAN*
Fireworks exploded in the sky and cries of joy and celebration resounded throughout the kingdom.
Shin, still rooted in his kiss, spread his big wings and flapped them gently.
With a flutter, Irene and Shin reached high into the sky while Shin wrapped his wings around Irene to continue their kiss in peace.
After several minutes of kissing, Shin and Irene came down to the square to participate in the festivities with the citizens.
The party lasted all afternoon and all evening.
All along, the atmosphere was exceptional and nobody got tired of it.
Irene talked with other women about her ring and other feminine things.
Shin was with the men (dragons included) complaining about the image of the ”perfect man” that Shin was giving off, all these statements and complaints were of course second degree accompanied by a bit of alcohol.
Shin was with him with a good fruit juice without alcohol, he was not the most fan of alcohol.
He also had fun with the children (dragons included) who came to ask for stories or to play with him.
During the whole party, all status was forgotten and everyone was friends.
This friendly, cheerful and festive atmosphere was really the best thing Shin could wish for.
He would take a few glances at Irene and smile back when he saw that she seemed to be having fun chatting with the other women.
-----------
The party went on for some who decided to continue celebrating through joyful drinking.
Shin and Irene had left them to be alone in their rooms.
They devoted themselves to their carnal dėsɨrės.
An evening they were not in danger of forgetting immediately.
