My Lady Chef

Ezran's POV:

She was overwhelmed.

but in a positive way.

I can tell as the priest from the Temple recited the vows of marriage, his sonorous voice carrying over to the crowd of people who were witnessing our wedding.

The day when I dragged her to the small town parish in Orza was still clear in my mind. She was scared but she endured as we were tied together for life. 

This was in exchange for her father to live and come home alive...

Back then, I admired her guts when it was evident that she was frightened.

It was funny how contrasting my feelings towards my bride made me want to be someone that she can depend on and trust. I gave her nothing to hold on to when we first married and dumped her at my estate.

But now I want to set things right.

Set a new beginning for our married life.

"The vows between the bride and groom will now be given. Shall we start with the bride?" the priest looked to Alaina took a deep breath and smiled.

" It was not love at first sight when we first met. I was intimidated when I laid eyes on you but you proved me wrong when you honored your promise to me and continued to show me a different side of you no one has ever seen. By then....it was too late for I began to develop feelings for you and it still continues to grow. Please continue to stay with me no matter what." Her voice were spoken in soft tones and I was sure not everyone heard her but....

Her words were filled with love and hope that I wanted to kneel and promise her the world but a loud cough from the priest made me remember that it was my turn.
