Chapter 402: The ceremony (4/4)
Astrid, Donna, and Helena arrive on the stage. Lucien kisses his wife before hugging his sister, and she gives him a quick kiss on the cheek, making Eve laugh very loudly at her sister's embarrassed expression.
The shy Fallen Angel looks at Lucien with a fake hostile expression before going to the corner of the stage with Donna on Eve's left side.
Next, Daisy and Rose arrive on the stage. The mature vampire passes her daughter's hand to Lucien as she looks at him with an expectant and confident expression.
"Do I need to say anything?" Daisy smiles at Lucien.
He smiles back at her. "Let me see... protect her with my life, and if she ever gets sad, you will beat the shit out of me, right?"
"Exactly." She nods.
"Fair." He responds and takes Rose's hand. His fingers end up touching Daisy's hand for a second, which has no meaning for him, but a wave of pleasant energy running through her body. That is his demonic energy wanting to go into her body, naturally.
While Lucien kisses Rose, Daisy goes to the corner of the stage to be with Ghalenna and Laure. She can't help but think about that wave of energy. [So powerful... and so good...]
Then Lucien looks at the third carriage. He can hear Marie and Lena arguing about who gets out first, which makes him laugh alone.
As soon as Daisy regains focus, she moves her hands in the air, and the door of that carriage turns into dust, which next becomes stone stairs, too.
Then everyone sees two young ladies in blue trying to leave at the same time. Of course, they can't, then delicate hands appear over their shoulders and pull them back.
"Oh??" Everyone is curious about what's going on.
Eve giggles. "They are really close sisters."
"..." Lucien sighs. He is already used to the rivalry between them and does not try to change them because he loves them the way they are. Also, that rivalry only makes them try their best and not cause any harm to anyone.
As soon as Marie and Lena are not pulled back, Angela appears and starts walking down the stone stairs. Of course, everyone starts to applaud and praise her because her look is really amazing.
Her beautiful blue hair is tied in a full bun atop the back of her head and decorated with several shiny white ornaments. Her long blue dress is also decorated with shiny white ornaments, making her look like a blue star.
"So beautiful!!"
"So noble!!"
"She really does look like a Queen!!"
"Majestic..."
The fox-people praises Angela a lot as they feel a royal aura that emanates from her. If they could describe her in one word, it would be kind, and she would be known as the Gentle Queen.
Angela smiles at people, but she continues walking over the flower corridor with her head held high. She knows the difficulties she has been through to get there and is only grateful to Lucien for her life being so good now.
As she continues walking towards him, the second woman gets out of the carriage. It's Lena, and she fixes her dress, which is a little messy.
Still, she receives applause and praise from everyone in the courtyard as she looks as beautiful as Angela. Lena has her hair free, and it is also decorated with ornaments similar to those of her mother.
People quickly notice that Lena is Angela's daughter because their facial features are very similar, as well as their hair having the same beautiful blue tone that no one has ever seen.
Although Lena doesn't have that aura of noble mature beauty, she also doesn't seem to be simple and really looks like a princess. In fact, all of Lucien's young wives look like princesses.
Before she starts walking down the flower corridor, Marie also gets out of the carriage and smiles at everyone, also receiving the same amount and praise and applause.
Also wearing a beautifully decorated blue dress, Marie has her medium-sided hair braided. Like Lena and Angela, she is also wearing white jewelry on her wrists, ankles, and earrings.
The sisters look at each other with a confident expression and then smile at each other before starting to walk down the flower corridor holding hands. Big ice-birds appear in the air and begin to fly above them, making people impressed again.
From that short time, the fox-people can see that Marie and Lena are sisters with a high level of rivalry, but they also love each other very much. And that they are very talented, of course.
Because both Angela and her daughters have a bowl in their hands, everyone understands that they are Lucien's wives and that it awakens specific jealousy in the hearts of the fox-men who observe everything from afar.
While Angela is received on stage by Lucien, another woman steps out of the carriage. Also impressing everyone with an incredible Royal aura, Cassidy leaves no doubt that she was born to be Queen, one of Lucien's Queens, of course.
With her beautiful black hair tied in a beautiful bun with braided parts, she also gets many applauds and praises for wearing a beautiful golden dress that matches her yellow eyes.
As soon as she steps on the floor, Mia gets out of the carriage behind her, with her hair free and wearing a golden dress similar to her mother's.
The fox-people applause and praise them even more. And, of course, they do not fail to notice that Lucien does not seem to like having mothers-in-law because he also marries the mothers of his wives.
"Hmmm..." On the stage, Eve makes a thoughtful expression. She hadn't thought of that before, but it is clear that Lucien likes mature women.
She looks at him with a curious expression. "Luci... have you ever been attracted to your stepmothers?"
"What???" Lucien is taken aback by that question. He has seen his sisters' mothers before, but there have been few occasions on the rare visits that Michael allowed.
At that time, he was too depressed to think about such things, but now he regrets not having a clear picture of them in his mind.
The other girls on stage hear that question, and while Lucien's wives laugh, Donna makes a worried expression as she thinks. [Does he think my mom is hotter than me?]
"Just answer the question," Eve speaks as she looks him in the eye.
He shakes his head as he answers honestly. "I never thought of them that way. Also, I don't quite remember what they look like."
"I see..." Eve comments while wondering what it would be like if Lucien stole their father's wives.
"Hahaha..." Then she starts to laugh alone while thinking about that. [That would be a perfect punishment for that jerk!]
While Lucien kiss Angela, Lena, and Marie on the stage, and Cassidy and Mia walk down the flower corridor, another woman gets out of the carriage, or rather, a young little girl.
"So young!!"
"She is already a beauty in such age."
"Just adorable!"
Everyone applauds and praises Kara as she shyly runs towards the stage while holding her bowl. With her hair tied in an adorable ponytail, she wears a white dress with a cute black flounce, very similar to the maid uniform she loves so much.
She giggles while feeling very good about receiving as much praise as Lucien's other wives. However, she is still very embarrassed and wants to get into his arms quickly.
Then another woman gets out of the carriage. Shocking everyone for wearing a dress but shiny armor, Jenna swings her long pink hair in the air while everyone applauds and praises her.
"A knight!"
"A beautiful knight!!"
"So cool!!"
"Her hair is amazing!
While the fox-people praise Jeanne, Eve makes a thoughtful expression. She realized that their hair color is very similar when they first met, but she thought it was just a coincidence.
However, now, while watching Jeanne, Eve realizes that their bodies are also similar. She looks at Lucien while wondering if he has approached Jeanne because she looks like her.
Lucien welcomes Cassidy, Mia, and Kara on stage. The beautiful pair of mother and daughter kiss Lucien's cheeks at the same time while the timid little girl hides in his embrace.
Then another woman gets out of the carriage. It's Dawn, wearing a beautiful pink dress with flower designs, while her hair is tied in a long ponytail.
She puts a lock of free hair behind her ear, drawing everyone's attention to her beautiful shiny earrings. She is wearing little makeup, which highlights her natural beauty.
With a modest yet radiantly happy posture, Dawn starts walking over the flower corridor while avoiding eye contact with the fox-people as she still feels ashamed and guilty for all the bad things that her army has done to the demi-humans in the past.
Although Lucien's troops have talked a lot about him to everyone, they have said nothing about his wives, and only Laure and Clovis know that she is the feared Marshal of the Light Empire.
Lucien has no intention of hiding anything about that, but they have no reason to publicly declare the mistakes of her past either, or rather, the mistakes of the damn racists who have nothing to do with the fair and honorable person that Dawn has always been.
So, people just know that Dawn is one of Lucien's beautiful and amazing wives. And they continue to applaud and praise her while they are also curious about her background.
Jeanna and Dawn arrive on the stage, and Lucien receives them with affectionate hugs and kisses. And everyone wonders if there is anyone else in the big carriage.
With most of his wives beside him, Lucien looks at the carriage with an expectant expression. Then a woman starts walking down the stone stairs slowly.
As one of the most popular women in the Alliance today, everyone recognizes Amelia as Eve and Lucien's sister.
"Wait! Why is she holding two bowls?" Some people ask, while most of them don't understand that.
"Is she helping other girls?" Another person asks as they get more and more curious.
With her beautiful medium-sized hair totally free, Amelia is wearing a short black and white dress. She doesn't use any makeup and yet is one of the most beautiful women there. Her perfect facial features are very similar to those of Lucien and Eve, leaving no doubt that she is their sister.
Holding her bowl with one hand, she extends the other bowl to the side, and Envy materializes her body to pick it, surprising everyone.
Envy does not wear a dress but gray armor, and her hair is tied in a ponytail, which highlights her beautiful face. Although all Lucien's wives are gorgeous beauties, Envy and Amelia are definitely at the top, alongside Eve and Donna, of course.
"So beautiful..." Many people forget the questions about how Envy appeared out of nowhere or why Amelia continues to hold a ceremonial bowl because they are hypnotized by their beauty.
Side by side, like good sisters, Amelia and Envy walk over the flower corridor while receiving lots of applause and praise.
Lucien's wives cannot deny that even they think Amelia is radiantly beautiful and even without wanting to, their feminine instincts make them a little jealous, which makes Amelia and Envy smile even more while generating demonic energy, and getting stronger.
"She looks so beautiful..." Donna comments.
"Both of them..." Lucien responds.
Eve nods as she smiles at him. "Our father would freak out if he saw you having a wedding ceremony with your sisters."
"And you would love to see him in such a situation, don't you?" He asks.
She starts to laugh. "Yeah... I would split his skull in half as soon as he tried to attack you."
Lucien also laughs while the fox-people near the stage are shocked and scared to hear that conversation. In fact, they can't even believe that they actually heard those words.
