Capítulo 24: CHAPTER 24: THE ENGAGEMENT
Estella threw her arms around Ignacia's neck, then caressed her nape.
"I will talk to my parents to meet your parents officially, Estel" Ignacia said while cuddling her, gently.
"It's a good idea. I have never talked about us to my parents but they knew it from the social gossip," Estella said while caressing her cheek, affectionately.
"Did they say something?" Ignacia asked and continued to kiss her on the chest while playing with her breast.
"Haa…they did not…say anything," Estella said in a trembling voice.
"Are you afraid, Estel?" Ignacia asked her kindly. She knew that Caelum always supports her after she helped Estella.
"I'm a little bit worried," Estella said, thoughtfully.
"Don't worry. I will run away with you, Estel" said Ignacia affectionately. She kissed sucking her breast.
"Hmm…what about your parents, Igna? Will they agree with us? They might want you to choose a man because you are only heir to Virtusarium," Estella asked, curiously. She looked at her in the eyes.
"They knew I likes woman since I was young. So, they have been talked to The Great Sage finding the way to make me become pregnant by using magic. They told me the project has succeeded and they wanted me to find a woman I like," said Ignacia honestly.
"Is that so?" said Estella surprisingly.
Ignacia held her to sit in front of her and hugged her from behind. She kissed her on the neck while massaging her breasts.
"Ahh…what about the law?" Estella said in a trembling voice. Her face turned red with the excitement.
"I think our families can talk to The Emperor. It's hard for His Majesty to do something against the will of our families, not even talk about the things that Vulcan did to you," Ignacia said and continued to kiss her on the shoulder while playing with her nipple.
"Ahh…all right. I will talk to my parents first," Estella said while caressing her cheek.
Ignacia kissed her on the hand, then said, "I enchanted magic power with the ability of teleportation on the ring. In case of emergency, you can activate you magic power on it. It will take you here. I will prepare the better ring for our official engagement later."
"Thank you, Igna" said Estella pleasantly. She fell in love with her more. She turned her face to kiss her on the lips.
Ignacia kissed her back passionately.
"I love you, Igna" Estella said and looked at her affectionately.
Ignacia hugged her and kissed her on the cheek, then said, "I love you more, Estel."
Estella felt warm with her hug, her kiss, and her words.
"Would you like to stay here after our parents had officially talked, Estel?" Ignacia asked her kindly.
"Yes, I would like to," said Estella shyly.
"If so, you should move to my room first," said Ignacia affectionately.
"Yes," said Estella shyly.
"You can't change your mind later, Estel. I will not let you rest," Ignacia teased her.
"Igna!" said Estella embarrassingly.
We spent time together until the day before Ignacia went to work.
The next day,
Estella went back to The Medietas Palace after she spent the lovely time with Ignacia many days.
"His Highness and Her Highness are waiting for you, Your Highness" a butler said and led her to Caelum's office.
'Knock' 'Knock'
"Princess Estella is here," a butler said.
"Let her in," Caelum said.
"You are back, Estel" said Aeliana worriedly.
"You said you would stay over for 3 days, Estel" Caelum said.
"I'm sorry, Father, Mother" said Estella guiltily.
"Did something happen, Estel?" Aeliana asked.
"The thing is, Ignacia proposed to me," said Estella shyly.
"Hmm…Did she does something to you?" Caelum asked, pretending to be serious.
"…No, Father" Estella told him a lie. She was worried that her father will punish Ignacia.
"Well, what did you answer her?" Aeliana asked.
"I…say yes to her," said Estella shyly.
"Are you serious, Estel?" Caelum asked, still pretending to be serious.
"I…love her. And she loves and cares about me so much, Father" Estella said, anxiously.
"Did you just realize the fact that she loves and cares about you, Estel?" Caelum asked, smilingly.
"Father," said Estella surprisingly. She looked at her parents confusedly.
Aeliana smiled at her kindly.
"I told her I would betroth you to her after that incident. Do you know what she had told me, Estel?" Caelum explained to her kindly.
Estella was surprised and asked, "What did she say, Father?"
"She said she didn't help you because she wanted something in return. She even refused my offer because she was afraid you would be hurt. She knew you were not willing to marry her at that time," said Caelum kindly.
"I was surprised after I heard it as well," said Aeliana, smilingly.
Estella impressed Ignacia, falling in love with her more and more after she heard everything from her parents. She could see why Ignacia was not worried about the opinion of her parents much.
"I was worried that you two would not allow me to marry her, Father, Mother" said Estella happily, she has tears in her eyes.
Caelum and Aeliana hugged her with dearly love.
"We hope you can find your happiness on your own," said Caelum gently.
"We love you so much, Estel" said Aeliana softly.
"I love you, Father, Mother" said Estella happily.

In the evening,
Ignacia teleported to The Oriens Castle to talk about her marriage with Felix and Isabella.
"Where are my parents?" Ignacia asked Garner.
"The Duke is in his office. The Duchess is in her bedroom, Lady Ignacia" Garner said.
"Tell my parents I will have dinner with them," Ignacia said.
"Yes, Lady Ignacia" Garner said and left.
In the dining room,
"Why didn't you tell us you would come today, Igna?" Isabella asked her kindly.
"I have something to talk to you two urgently, Father, Mother" Ignacia said, "I will marry Princess Estella."
'Cough' 'Cough' Felix coughed with a surprise and asked, "What did you say, Igna?"
"I will marry Princess Estella and I would like you two to have a formal talk to The Grand Duke and The Grand Duchess as soon as possible, Father, Mother" Ignacia said.
"Wait…," Felix said and asked, "don't you think you over-assert yourself, Igna?"
"Your father is right. She is a Princess of Dignita. How come you would marry her?" said Isabella worriedly.
"We should not offend The Grand Duke, Igna" Felix said.
"Well, actually, The Grand Duke betrothed her to me after I helped her from the danger but I refused him at that time because I would like to win her heart first," Ignacia said.
"Is it true, Igna?" Felix asked, surprisingly.
"Yes, everything I told you is true. The Grand Duke support me, Father" said Ignacia honestly.
"That's good, I didn't expect you could marry the perfect noble like Princess Dignita. We have to talk about the cooperation with The Grand Duke to produce your heir, Igna" Felix said, happily.
"Is it all right for marriage equality?" Isabella asked, curiously.
"I think The Grand Duke can deal with this matter, Honey" said Felix delightedly.
"I could not believe you will marry woman for real, Igna" said Isabella gently.
"I love her, Mother" Ignacia said.
"At least, she chose a woman from the great family, Honey" said Felix nicely, "all right. I will send a letter to The Grand Duke for you, Igna"
"Thank you, Father" Ignacia said.
"Do you want anything else, Igna?" Felix asked, delightedly.
"Yes, I would like to renovate some parts of my private estate. I will go there on my honeymoon, Father" Ignacia said.
"All right. You can tell the detail to Garner. I will handle the rest," said Felix kindly.
"Thank you, Father" Ignacia said.

Two weeks passed,
Felix, Isabella, and Ignacia went to The Medietas Palace to talk with The Grand Duke of Dignita, The Grand Duchess of Dignita, and Estella. We were having a conversation in the drawing room.
"Let them get engaged first and hold the marriage ceremony after I dealt with the marriage law," Caelum said.
"I agree with you, Your Highness" Felix said.
"All right. I will process all the documents," Caelum said.
"If I could say one more thing about our family heir, Your Highness" Felix said.
"Of course," Caelum said, curiously.
"We knew our Igna did not like men romantically since she was young. That's why we invested money to The Great Sage for researching into the way to make woman become pregnant without intercourse with man. Please forgive my rudeness, Your Highness" Felix said and walked toward him, lowing his voice to a whisper, "So, we need…."
"Ah, I see. It's a good idea. We will relate for real in this way. I will tell Celestino to cooperate with Commander," Caelum said, pleasantly.
"Might I ask why Brother have to do something with Igna?" Estella asked, curiously. She knew that Celestino have feelings for Ignacia since he was young but he must give up because they both were the heirs.
"It's not like that, Your Highness" Felix said, awkwardly. He did not know how to explain things to her.
"I will explain everything to you later, Your Highness" Ignacia said.
"It would be wise if you did so, Commander" Caelum said, gently.
"Might I ask you for permission to let us stay together, Your Highness?" Ignacia asked.
"Hmm…why are you in a hurry, Commander?" Caelum asked, nicely.
"I would like to take care of her, Your Highness" Ignacia said.
"Haha…you know how to say the good words, Commander" Caelum said and asked, "What if I say no?"
"I will wait, Your Highness" Ignacia said.
"Father!" Estella said.
"It's look like someone is in a greater hurry." Caelum teased Estella.
Aeliana looked at him giving signal to not make things complicated.
"All right. Come to pick her up next week," said Caelum nicely.
"I'm grateful for your kindness, Your Highness" Ignacia said, then turned to look and smile at Estella.
Estella blushed with embarrassment.
Isabella had a sigh of relief. She was worried that Ignacia would offend The Grand Duke.
"If there is nothing else, we will take our leave, Your Highness" Felix said.
"All right. I will send the news to you, Duke Virtusarium" said Caelum nicely.

A few days passed,
Victoria came to meet Ignacia at her office, Black Knight Forces, The Royal Palace.
"I heard you got engaged to Princess Estella, Igna" said Victoria, smilingly.
"Yes, I will marry her," Ignacia said.
"You know, my father received the document from The Grand Duke. He asked me 'Will you marry woman if I agreed with this marriage law?'. I almost burst out laughing, it was very funny," said Victoria amusingly.
"Why didn't you tell His Majesty you have an interest in harem? So, he can revise the marriage law at once," said Ignacia amusingly.
"Argh…he said he will allow marriage equality case by case and not make it as a law. Forget about the harem, I would be scolded," Victoria said and asked, "well, I wondered how you could win her heart. She didn't seem to show any interest in you back then."
"It's thanks to the rumor about me finding partner. She expressed her feelings for me," Ignacia said.
"Ah, I heard about your rumor as well. Anyway, Congratulations! Igna" said Victoria nicely, "There will be many people having broken heart."
"Come to think of it, why don't you consider Maximus to be your partner? He's great in many ways. I think he could be a wise choice for you, Victoria" said Ignacia honestly.
"He likes you so much," Victoria said.
"You see, he likes me because he's a second son and I'm the heir to Virtusarium. We knew the fact that he has less chance to inherit title of The Duke of Magnarus. That's why I am his best choice. Isn't it the same condition with you now? You are even The Crown Princess of Mirarus Empire," Ignacia said.
"I will think about it," Victoria said. She has never thought about the romantic relationship before. She wondered whether she could fall in love with someone.
The next day,
Ignacia went to The Medietas Palace to pick up Estella. She saw Caelum and Isabella seeing her off.
"Your Highness, The Grand Duke, Your Highness, The Grand Duchess," Ignacia greeted and bowed to them.
"Please take care our Estel, Lady Ignacia" said Aeliana gently.
"Yes, Your Highness" Ignacia said.
"We will send the other luggage to you later, Estel" Caelum said.
"Come back to visit us sometime," Aeliana said and hugged Estella.
"Yes, I will do so. Please take care of yourself, Father, Mother" Estella said and left.
