Kapitel 144: The Tree Blessing Ceremony

"Congratulations your highness! I heard the news!"

I blinked at Adina. "What news?"

"It's swirling everywhere, about the Union Ceremony after the Tree Blessing, You and Prince Aldon will be official!"

My blood ran cold, the news has spread… already? I quivered.

"Shall we continue?" I said with a forced smile and Adina nodded as we resumed our singing practice. I didn't want to think about what awaited me, because the more I do, the more anxious I feel and dread pooling like an endless pit, and I can't contain it.

I don't know what to do

Aldon has waited for so long and soon his wait will be over but Aveline, barely smiles or speaks to him and spends all her time riding away and keeping herself in the wild or singing instead of spending every waking moment with him. I wanted her closer, in his arms as he tells her stories upon stories and mumbled beautiful things to her ears because she is worth everything.
