Very obliviously, the coronation ceremony was going to beco one of the magnificent occasion that the DALASTIA World ever had. Though the preparation was made in rush, Queen linda didn't give any less effort of preparing the grand ball. The throne was redecorated with new clothing that seed eye-catching from exterior. Hallway was filled with crowd as all were anxiously waiting for their king to claim the throne Officially.
The officials ca one by one and stood two sides in a row. So of them were happy that Ethan won the final round wheraous others had a little dissatisficton over this outco. The reason was crystal clear that they didn't want to be dominated by soone who was far more younger than them. It was truly an epic event that soone who didn't even finish the trial of high fairies had achieved the throne by his own powers. So were truly chard by Ethan's willpower and the others were simply jealous.
The guards shouted out loudly indicating Ethan's arrival. The crowd went silent imdiately and looked up at the way where everyone was entering together. Ethan was in the lead followed by Queen linda, Evan, Katherine's Mother, Katherine and few others. Katherine's eyes couldn't hold back the contentnt of being at everyone's sole attention as they entered in. Her happiness grew stronger when she noticed that Athena didn't seem to appear nowhere.
She secretly smirked and put back her elegant imposter quickly. They all stopped at a corner and watched Ethan striding towards the throne elegant. He had worn a snow white colored long coat along with white attire that looked glossy in his figure. His face was calm without having any excitent as he slowly approached the throne tortoriusly.
He paused just in front of the throne and suddenly found out the missing person. His face turned grim as his oceanic eyes quickly road across the surrounding scanningly.
Katherine's joyful expression dropped when she noticed the anxiety on Ethan's gaze. Though no one noticed his expression, she could able to see through his emotions this ti. As people say always that a man in love can't be ever hidden from everyone. Her jaw tickled in anger and at the sa ti, her sharp nails dugged through her skin.
No, she couldn't let go of this attention, prestigious status in this world. Even if she had to die, she wouldn't let go of her position.
With this thought, she tugged at her mother's arms and whispered sothing lowly. Her mother nodded in response and stepped beside Queen linda who was eyeing on her son proudly.
Katherine's Mother was a wise man. She knew very well that how should she initiate a topic naturally. Putting on a wide smile, she spoke sweetly to Queen linda,
" Besty, you have finally reached your goal. You must be very proud."
Queen linda nodded compherensively and replied with a grin,
" True, besty. After all, he has my blood. Why wouldn't I be proud of my son? "
Katherine's Mother smiled in agreent and sighed heavily. Faking a concerned tongue, she whispered softly lowering her gaze into the ground,
" Sigh.. what about our agreent then? Ethan is becoming the king and soon everyone will question about our living in the castle. Don't you think that you should announce our child's wedding fast? What if the netizens start to spread rumour telling that we have been staying here to seek this opportunity of becoming your in-laws? I don't want to hear any hurtful rumours regarding Katherine's upbringing. You know that how educated child she is? She wouldn't have the heart of enduring this humaliations."
Queen linda's expression dropped instantly. Her lips tightened in anxiety as she knew that Ethan never listened to her command. Though recently Ethan had given her promise verbally that he would marry Katherine, she still didn't feel optimistic. Furthermore if she made this announcent without having any prior conversation with Ethan, would he agree in front of everyone so easily?
Queen linda dwelled in her thoughts and didn't feel confident about this decision. Beside her, Katherine's Mother seed to see through her hesitation. Her mouth sneered secretly before her prepared words ca outside,
" What are you thinking besty? You are his mother. You have the right to determine right or wrong for him. Are you going to wait and sacrifice everything for his sake?"
Queen linda's expression clouded after hearing her last comnt. She felt much confident which satisfied the other woman beside her. After all, it was all her intention to provoke this proud woman. Katherine's Mother smirked cunningly and pulled away when she finalised the fact that her tricks had worked on Queen linda.
As expected, Queen linda rushed over to an official hastily. Under everyone's watchful gazes, she inford to the officials that she would like to make an announcent after this crowning ceremony which they approved fast thinking that she might have any ungency.
On the other side, Ethan was non-bothered about everything. His anger started to fire up when he didn't see the person whom he was waiting for eagerly. Before his anger could brust out, the crowd once again diverted their attention on the pathway deeply.
Following their gazes, Ethan finally saw the woman walking in. Her purple gown highlighted each curves that made her appearance more enchanting. Her hairs were cascaded down and were placed quite ssily. As their eyes t, Ethan's lips curled up into a devilish smirk.
Lucky, she knew that it wouldn't be a good idea to provoke !
Ethan thought to himself and happily proceeded for the further process of coronation. Athena rolled hee eyes back at his childish impression and stood far away from the crowd. She was well aware of the fact that the fairies didn't like her that much.
A senior officical ca in front holding the crown with a big smile and gestured Ethan to sit over the throne. Ethan compelled gracefully and sat down with elegancy.
The senior spoke to the crowd loudly,
" Today I announce Ethan Chole,the new appointed King Of Dalastia World."
He gave a long speech with vows and finally put on the white crown on Ethan's head. The crowd cheered happily and gave him a long bow. Ethan exchanged greetings with other officials and finally his eyes fell on her. Athena tried to reduce her presence here and prayed for him from a distant corner. When his brooded eyes leaped on her, she felt her heart skipping a beat.
Amidst this chaos she wanted to walk back to her room but the man with crown suddenly strode downstairs. His paces started to make his way towards her slowly. Her stomach tightened in anticipation. Her face showed instant panic at her approach but she didn't find her answer.
Under everyone's watchful gazes, Ethan finally stopped in front of Athena. His dark eyes reflected her flushed expression which ignited the fire inside her more feverishly.
Nobody spoke for a while!
Few monts later, the entire Dalastia beca dumbfounded when they saw him kneeling with one knee. Ethan without a slightest hesitation on his face knelt in front of Athena happily. His gaze locked on her deeply as his deep magical voice echoed in the air of hallway,
" Athena, will you marry now?"
Athena jolted as if thunder had fallen down over her head. Her expression turned horrified as she heard gasps around them. Her heart raced like a wild horse but the fear was still there to destroy her happiness. She wanted to look up and see their expressions but lost her courage. After all, this news could be too explosive for them.
Before any of them could talk, another roaring voice ca out from the back. Katherine seed to go insane as she shouted from the top of her lungs,
" No, brother Ethan. How can you propose her in front of ? How can you abandon .. and...and... our child? "
