Chapter 342 Royal Wedding (The End)
As the wedding ceremony started, the Moon Goddess gave her blessings to the couple. She chanted some words that no one could understand.
The second part of this ceremony was the exchange and drinking of each other's blood. They mixed a droplet of their blood on the wine and drank it.
Kira and Marceline could feel their power increase after that ritual. Everyone cheered for them.
"Now, it's the right time for you to exchange your vows." The Moon Goddess said, motioning them to hold their hands and face each other.
Marceline and Kira looked into each other's eyes. It seemed that they couldn't see others. They were only focused on each other.
"Kira... my King... my beloved mate. Our first meeting always leaves a mark in the bottom of my heart... either a thousand years ago or in my second life. I might have forgotten our memories but my heart will always remember you. I know... even from the start... my heart beats for you." Marceline reminisced about the moment she met Kira in the human world and in the Kingdom of Phantasia. She felt a strong attraction toward him.
"You are the only man who made me feel how special I am. I feel your love... your genuine care. It turned out... you are my mate." Marceline tightened her grip on Kira's hands. She had a lot of things to tell him but she couldn't express them in just a few words.
"Now... I am making this vow... in front of everyone... our Moon Goddess... and the bright full moon above us... I, Marceline Silvano... the Werewolf Princess of this kingdom, will always love you... forever... until the day I die." Marceline's eyes became teary as she felt emotional.
"Thank you for finding me... for giving me courage... for inspiring me... for loving me. I will always stay by your side... in sickness and in health... for better, and for worse... together... we will live happily together with our son... with our family and with our future children. I love you so much, Kira."
Kira could no longer hold it. He pulled Marceline into a tight hug and kissed her forehead. He was touched by her words. Her vows were engraved in his heart.
"Now... it's my turn." Kira softly mumbled. He cupped her face and kissed away her tears. Marceline was shedding tears of joy.
"I didn't believe in mate bonds before... but I believe in us... our fate... our love. Marceline... my Selene... my Queen... my Mate. You are the reason why I am still here. You've protected me, instead of me protecting you." Kira smiled with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
"You sacrificed so much for me. And this time... I, Kira Alaric... will promise to protect you with my life. I will devote my time... my life to you... only to you. You've suffered enough. This time I swear to give you happiness and treat you with utmost care. I will never doubt you. I will always stay with you. I will stick with you like glue."
"I won't allow you to get separated from me. And together, we will rebuild this kingdom in peace. Let our family live in peace and harmony. No more killings, no more hatred... only pure love." Kira rested his forehead on hers as he continued speaking.
"And I can't wait to make more babies with you," Kira naughtily added, making everyone laugh including the Moon Goddess.
'When did Kira become so naughty like this? Tsk tsk tsk.' The Moon Goddess shook her head while grinning from ear to ear.
"But kidding aside... I will be your knight in shining armor... I will no longer let you make sacrifices. I will do it for you. Just stay with me... always... my Lady... my Queen. I love you more than anything else in this whole world. You are my life."
Everyone couldn't help but feel envious of the couple. They could feel the profound love between the couple. It was so amazing to witness them.
Lyca was so happy for her best friend. She couldn't help but cry in tears. Then Dylan immediately comforted her.
"Why are you crying? Don't worry... I will also give you the grandest wedding of your life!" Dylan tried to cheer her up.
Lyca could only smile as she hit his chest. "Stop it. I'm just happy for my best friend."
Dylan nodded his head. "I'm also happy for both of them. They matched each other well... like us. A PERFECT MATCH!"
Lyca could only pinch Dylan's cheeks. Soon, the crowd cheered for the bride and groom who were now kissing each other as they sealed their promises.
"Oh, Hail the Queen! And Our King!"
"Both of you will be great rulers!"
The crowd continued cheering. Then the Moon Goddess announced the coronation of Kira and Marceline. Dominique and Serena walked toward the altar. They stood next to the Moon Goddess while Kira and Marceline kneeled before them.
Serena took her golden crown and placed it on Marceline's head. Dominique also did the same. The two stood up and faced everyone. After the last ceremony, Kira and Marceline were declared the New King and Queen of the Kingdom Phantasia.
Everyone congratulated them and showed courtesy as they kneeled in front of their new King and Queen.
Kira motioned Little Lowell to come over. The young boy ran to them. And Kira carried him. He put the crown on his son's head as he presented him to them.
"Our son... will be the next King of this land..." Kira declared to them. He didn't plan to rule the Kingdom for so long. He just wanted to live simply together with Marceline.
Marceline could only narrow her eyes at her husband. Their son was still young for that responsibility. "Ki... don't pressure our son. Let him enjoy his freedom and childhood, okay!"
"Uh... okay, my Lady... I will." Kira smiled sheepishly, scratching his face.
Soon, the wedding banquet started. The palace became so lively and cheerful tonight. As everyone celebrated, the Moon Goddess also bid her goodbye.
"Now... I have to leave. But I will continue watching everyone. No more violence and war. Our mediator of peace will punish whoever breaks the rule... and our laws. Congratulations again to our newlywed... our New King and Queen."
Marceline hugged the Moon Goddess tightly before allowing her to leave. "Mother... Thank you. I owe you a lot. I am indebted to you..."
The Moon Goddess watched Marceline and caressed her face. "No need to thank me, my dearest daughter. I just did what I had to do... the right thing to do. Take care of yourself. And be happy always."
*****
After the wedding banquet, Kira and Marceline went to the Valley of Promise. In the valley, they reminisced their past as Kira hugged Marceline behind.
They were watching the night sky and the palace in the distance.
"After so many years, we are back here... right in each other's arms," Kira mumbled, placing his chin over her right shoulder.
Marceline bobbed her head, smiling faintly. "Yeah. You fulfilled your promise. And our wishes were granted here."
"So what is our next plan?" Marceline asked him.
"Make another baby... so that Little Lowell will have a playmate!" Kira replied with a naughty smile on his face.
Marceline giggled. And before she could reply, Kira immediately pinned her on the ground. He trapped her with his own body. His face was so close to hers.
"Ki... we are outside the palace... someone might see us here." Marceline tried her best to resist. But she was as hot as Kira. She also wanted him.
"Don't worry... they are still at the banquet, drinking and eating to their heart's content." Kira lowered his face, bringing his nose closer to the nook of her neck. He was smelling her scent and planting soft kisses on her collarbones.
Kira's hands were slowly undressing her. His palm cupped her breast through her white gown. Marceline moaned in pleasure when Kira squeezed her breast so hard. Damn! She loved it. She could no longer resist him.
"Oh, Ki... take me... Make love with me right here right then." Marceline began to tear Kira's upper clothes as she wanted to feel his body.
"Your wish is my command, My Lady...."
In a flash, Kira pulled her gown up to her waist and unzipped his pants. He positioned himself in between her legs and Marceline parted them wide to accommodate Kira.
In one swift move, he thrust inside her, filling her emptiness. The next thing they heard was Marceline's moans and Kira's groans along with the sound of their flesh-to-flesh contact.
"Aah! Aah! Aah~ Ki... faster... Oh... harder! That's it... I need more!"
Kira kept pounding on her body, thrusting in and out of her in a pleasurable manner. Marceline crossed her legs around Kira and she also moved her hips to meet his every thrust. Their lovemaking was so intense under the moonlight. They longed for each other. They missed each other. And now, no one could separate them... ever again.
