Chapter 12: Loving the Beast

Zoya's POV

"The gown is so beautiful, no more than beautiful. I'm lost in words right now." I gasped for air as it suddenly felt so difficult to breathe.

"You deserve it, My Lady. Would you love to fit it now?" The head maid asked courteously and I shook my head.

"Merely looking at it, I know it's my size." I crossed my arms with a smile on my face. "I'm going to wear it on the big day." I said happily.

Was I excited that my status would be uplifting soon after our marriage or there was more to it.

The entire palace and court yard was bustling with activities. The guards were active and had increased more than usual, the servants were also up and doing, decorating and cleaning the place.

I could already smell my incoming wedding, the preparation was something else, everyone was serious and focused.

How would it have felt if it were to be a marriage with my true mate and love?
