RECOMMENDED SONG: Everything I wanted By Billie Eililsh ~?

A slow soothing piano music echoed in the sir of Moonshine immediately relaxing the ears of night creatures who was awaiting for Athena's arrival patiently. Between this chaos, it was impossible to keep an eye on a certain someone who walked for the kitchen zone in rush.

Viviana who also had maiden her way to grab a plate of fruits for Esme was paused midway as an elderly woman started chatting with her randomly. She couldn't even push away the man reconsidering her old figure. She only smiled awkwardly and tried to break off the chatting as soon as possible.

On the other side, Vanessa had already stepped into the empty kitchen before Viviana could approach her. Her lips smiled in relief when she found no one except the brand new utensils. As the castle was full of guests, definitely the maids were all in busy serving them. Her lips curled up into an evil smirk because there was no way that she would let go of this rare opportunity.

She took a glimpse over the doorway and found no one coming on. Thus the speed of her task turned immediately faster than light. After living in Moonshine for a long time, she was well aware of every utensils that Aaron and Esme used to eat. Because of their respective positions in the castle, they were served differently than others. In that way, Vanessa was pretty sure that which glasses would be provided to serve them drinks.

After taking one last glance of her surrounding, Vanessa moved beside the bartender and slipped out the little bottle from her waist. Her breathing turned rapid in ecstasy as she unclasped the bottle impatiently. With those trembling hands, she quickly poured down the liquid into a white porcelain glass that was decades older probably.

After making sure that the warm liquid went mixed well with the orange juice, she heavied a sigh of relief before letting out a sinister smile. Whirling the spoon into the liquid, she murmured lowly as her gaze started turning vicious,

" Tsk... Goodbye baby..."

Her task was done as she gladly stepped out of the kitchen and pretended like she never appeared here before. 

Tingles of glasses and chatter had engulfed the entire atmosphere that made the place quite harmonious. As Esme kept sitting down idle under her husband's strict order, she couldn't move out from her spot and could only roam her eyes around boringly.

Suddenly Jasper made his way towards Aaron who was chatting with a boy beside and hurriedly whispered something in his ears. Aaron's expression immediately darkened further as his gaze dimmed slightly.

Waving his hands dismissively, he kept on putting a stern face and gestured towards Esme to get closer. Esme blinked innocently having no idea of his sudden tensions and compiled his orders obediently.

But her confusion soon after turned clear when an old man in a loose white coat started approaching them slowly. 

Aaron only narrowed his gaze on his way sharply and got up from the couch grabbing Esme's arms gently. Sucking a deep breath to compose his anger, Aaron spoke hoarsely when the man came closer,

" Esme, this my uncle, the old Lord."

Esme blinked before giving him a short bow of respect but in response, she only received his narrowed eyes.

The old lord smiled cunningly after watching the gloominess on Aaron's expression and stated with deeper meaning,

" It seems like My Lord is in very good mood, isn't it?"

Aaron shot him a cold glare and spotted the ruthlessness behind his narrow eyes whenever it fell on Esme. His grip on Esme's arms tightened hardly as he cautiously pulled Esme backwards.

Curling up into an evil smirk, Aaron responded mysteriously,

" Of course, today is such a blessed day in our family. But I feel like my uncle shouldn't pollute his eyes anymore. What if it causes an evil impact on my sister's upcoming future?"

The old lord's expression fell as he clearly noticed the hidden mockery behind Aaron's tongue. He was silently giving him warning to stay far away from this little bitch.

What was so good about this woman?

The old lord couldn't register his thoughts and could only grind his teeth harder. After shooting them a disdainful glare, he huffed before heading away into another direction.

Aaron secretly sighed in relief once the old man was gone. Or else Aaron was afraid that he might do something unexpected to harm Esme here.

Esme kept staring at his retreating back and didn't feel any good impressions on him. She felt like the old lord didn't like her quietly. She tugged on Aaron's sleeves gently and whispered,

" It seems like Uncle doesn't like me that much?"

Aaron looked down at her gloomy expression and instantly panicked. He didn't want her to get affected by any situation thus he changed his way of talking. Using a bit teasing tongue, he barked to cheer up her mood,

" What? Ain't I enough to like you? You need more people as your admirers?"

Esme was speechless before shooting him a cold glare.

Was he jealous again?

She rolled her eyes and rebuked sharply,

" My eyes aren't so bad that I would want an old admirer like him. You think too much."

Aaron laughed softly when he heard Esme addressing the old lord blatantly.

At the same time, the stairs started getting crowded with maids as they stood both sides in a row hastily. All the eyes that were stuck on this sweet couple averted their attention over the stairs where the enchanting lady was coming down.

Athena kept her gaze down as she stepped on each stairs absentmindedly. All the focus was now shifted over the soon-to-be bride who appeared like an angel from heaven. Her black gown was glistening like a pearl as she continued climbing down. Two of the maids held her veil down on her back as she kept landing.

Each step had created thunder in her mind that wasn't noticed by anyone. Her lips were sealed shut as she desperately fought to keep her muffled screams down.

Why was her heart in so much pain? Wasn't this everything that she wanted?

_DALASTIA WORLD_

The high fairies, civilians all started gathering up at the courtyard of White Castle as they all awaited eagerly to see the heirs in armour.

Inside Ethan's master bedroom, he was getting dressed for their final battle as Evan offered him a helping hand. The evidences that he gathered from LG'S den were all passed to Evan for extreme security. He didn't know whether he would come back alive or not but Ester would have to die for his devious crimes contiously.

As Evan pulled up the iron belt on his waist, Ethan suddenly grunted in pain touching his neckline suddenly.

Evan immediately paused as he thought that he used much force to straighten the chain perhaps. Ethan waved his hands and assured while rubbing the spot,

" It's all right. It didn't happen for your push. I am feeling burning pain on my neckline from a while ago. I don't know why it's happening but it is increasing slowly."

Evan frowned as concern flashed across his expression. As he parted his lips to say something, Evan's brain suddenly came to a realization.

With his lips quivering slightly in anticipation, Evan asked nervously while staring at his brother's scrunched expression,

" Se.. Second brother.. Where is the mark of your mate bond with princess Athena exactly?"
