Kings And Queens

Sad or happy feelings?

"You look so beautiful." Said a royal makeup artist while placing a small crown on her head.

"Really... Am I pretty? But I heard, almost all of King Louis' consorts are beautiful." Helena looked at herself in the mirror.

She barely recognized herself, except for her blond hair, which had not changed at all.

"All of Queen Revania's choices are unquestionable, including you. It's just that you are the youngest empress in the kingdom of Aarez." Said the royal makeup artist and held Helena's chin.

"Relax, I'm sure you can get through all this."

Helena could hear all the voices whispering behind her. She knew exactly. What they were all talking about because Helena knew. Perhaps, she didn't deserve to be the consort of King Louis Aarez.

Even Helena was not sure, with her decision she made, the right one? Will she be able to get through all of this? When she was only nineteen years old, to decide to get married.

"You look so beautiful, Helena." Praise Queen Revania. She is already close to her.

"I'll take you to the altar." Shee said softly and held Helena's hand, which felt very cold.

"No need to be afraid Helena, my husband will not bite you. Even..." Revania's blue eyes glanced at two women who were sitting neatly in a row.

"...the other two beautiful empresses over there, my husband never touched them." Revania continued.

"What? He never touched..."

"Shhh... You don't have to think about it. I hope you can enjoy your first night with the King ... Oh Helena, look at your hands so cold." The Queen Revania patted the back of Helena's hand.

"Calm yourself, Helena. You must be able to get the heart of King Louis," Revania said and still led Helena's hand.

The flash of light continued to shine towards Revania and Helena. Various media press had arrived, covering the news of the King's wedding, a marriage for the fourth time.

Of course, it shocked all the citizens of Aarez.

The King even previously had a very beautiful Queen Revania and two empresses.

Surprisingly, when the news came and informed that the Queen Revania chose the consort candidate for the King.

A man looked at Revania and Helena, men who had brown eyes and neatly shaped brown hair. He is wearing a black suit that looks elegant, plus a bow tie pinned between his neck.

Helena was sure the man was King Louis Aarez. The first time for Helena, seeing the King directly.

Usually, she only saw from a few television shows or posters that were on the side of the Aarez State highway.

A handsome man, a perfect face with all the facial sculptures will make women fascinated and amazed. Maybe even a lot of women would give themselves just to get Helena's position.

Helena's heart immediately beat fast. When Queen Revania, handed Helena's hand to the King. Felt so warm, so much different from her. And King Louis seemed to be aware of the tension felt by Helena.

Louis looked at Helena with a cruel look, slightly furrowed his brows, and after that, he looked back at Revania.

Revania bowed respectfully, and a faint smile appeared on her beautiful face. No words came out of the queen's words, but King Louis turned back to face the old man who was about to start the sacred ceremony of the wedding that afternoon.

The ceremony started, Helena could only be silent and listen to the old man speak for a long time.

While the King also no longer glanced at her, then about ten minutes passed. The old man had already announced that Helena had officially become the consort of King Louis.

Helena and King Louis turned around, allowing the media to take their picture. Many flashes of light, made Helena have to close her eyes a little. While one of her hands had hooked on the arm of the King, who had not said anything to her.
