Lights of the Wedding: A New Beginning in the Palace

Days passed quickly, and the wedding day arrived. The sky was clear, the sun bright. Celesia woke up early, attended by maids eager to make her the most beautiful bride. She wore a white wedding dress made of silk and lace, adorned with pearls.

Felix knocked on the door and entered, dressed in a stylish suit, holding a small box to surprise her with its contents.

"You look exceptionally beautiful today," Felix said gently.

"Thank you for your compliment," Celesia replied gratefully.

Felix approached her and opened the box to reveal a beautiful crystal tiara.

"This is our mother's tiara that she wore on her wedding day. She was named the Golden Bride after the way the sun's rays reflected off her golden hair, hence it's called the Sun's Tiara," Felix explained.

"You seem to know a lot about our mother," Celesia remarked in surprise.

"But why are you giving it to me?" she asked hesitantly.

Felix took the tiara and placed it on her head, saying, "If our mother were here, she would have done the same. I'm sure of it."

Celesia felt warmth and wondered to herself, "What would our mother's reaction have been?"

"Thank you, brother, for always standing by my side," Celesia said softly.

"Alright, I'll leave now," Felix exited the room, heading towards the hall, leaving Celesia waiting alone in the room.

*Knock... Knock...*

Henry entered wearing majestic royal attire adorned with insignias and ribbons. His shimmering white hair was carefully arranged, and his crimson eyes gleamed with excitement and nerves.

"Are you ready?" Henry asked.

Celesia turned to him, saying, "I'm ready," with a smile on her face.

Henry blushed upon seeing her and started to feel nervous, extending his hand towards her, which made Celesia feel his hand trembling.

"Why are you shaking? And looking so shy?" she asked.

"I don't know, seeing you just makes me nervous," Henry replied shyly.

"We signed the marriage contract on our engagement day, so we've been married for three months already. Yet you've never seemed this nervous before," Celesia teased.

"I suppose you're the reason. You look exceedingly beautiful today," Henry confessed shyly.

"Thank you for the compliment, but let's go now. Everyone is waiting," Celesia said coolly.

"It seems she's already accustomed to this," Henry thought to himself as they made their way to the hall.

They quietly entered the hall, where all eyes were filled with astonishment and admiration.

"They look extraordinarily beautiful," most of the guests thought.

The wedding ceremony proceeded successfully, and the guests cheered joyfully. The hall was adorned with flowers and candles, tables filled with exquisite dishes and fine foods. Guests enjoyed delicious meals and luxurious drinks, everyone happy and celebrating.

Guests offered their congratulations to the newlyweds, and the celebration continued into the night.

After the festivities, everyone returned to their homes, and Celesia was escorted to her room by the maids, quickly falling asleep.

"She must be very tired today," a maid remarked.

"I hope she has sweet dreams."

Morning came, and Celesia found herself surrounded by luxury and tradition in the royal palace, having entered the life of the royal family. Initially, she felt immersed in a completely new world, where strict protocols and precise schedules prevailed. She listened attentively to the daily scenes in the palace, trying to understand every aspect of the roles and functions of the individuals.

"Royal life is very challenging," Celesia sighed while resting in comfort. At the tea table, Empress Catherine sat sipping her tea with a friendly smile, "Don't worry, you'll get used to it with time."

Suddenly, the Empress's attendant entered and approached her whispering, "Your Highness, they've arrived."

"Oh... really?" Catherine exclaimed in surprise.

"Celesia, come with me to the palace. I want to introduce you to someone," Catherine said excitedly.

Celesia was surprised by the Empress's reaction but accompanied her inside. There, she found a young girl around her age, with beautiful blue hair like the sky and eyes as pink as jewels, who greeted them formally.

"I am Lena Etherlin. It's a pleasure to meet both of you."
