Chapter 3

Other clothes from the royal clothes' storage room were taken by the fashion designer. The matching colored clothes with the badly damaged clothes looked a little less luxurious, like the previous ones, but they had no other choice. If you continue to insist on wearing the garment, the repaired tear will be very visible and spoil the glamour of the previous wedding dress.

"I don't understand what you are feeling right now, but this is an important day, and you agreed, right?"

"I never agreed to it."

"But also never refused, right?" said the mother as she tidied up the new clothes her son was wearing.

Axel was silent with his mother's words, he couldn't refuse because he didn't have any reason. If the reason is loving another person, he also cannot present that other person to his parents. Also, if indeed he expresses his feelings and the person in his heart, it is not certain that his parents will agree. This was like Axel's deepest dilemma, so he chose to follow his father's plan.

Axel's new wedding clothes looked perfect, and his mother smiled happily seeing her son so handsome. She also wore a royal hat bejeweled with diamonds to her son.

"You will be a great king after this," said the mother smiling.

Axel ignored his mother again, he looked at the window and saw many people arriving in horse-drawn carriages. The arrival of these people indicates that the event will start soon, and Axel must be ready at the altar.

Before long, the king came to see his son's preparations. He gave a warm smile and radiated happiness because so far Axel was not against anything. However, he was a little surprised and annoyed that the clothes his son wore were different from the clothes that had been prepared beforehand.

"Where were the clothes yesterday? Why are you wearing these clothes? " Asked the king.

"Never mind, this dress is also more or less the same as the previous one," replied the queen. The Queen does not want any debate ahead of the event, she knows how her husband and her children are. Although Axel tends to be silent, he can also get angry and explode at any time, if that's the case, you can be sure they will argue like they are on the battlefield.

The king who was annoyed chose to leave his wife and child. It is more important for him to welcome guests who come.

Axel and his mother walked out of the room towards the altar, but before that, they stopped at the king's room. Axel's mother again warned her son about this important event. She also asked Axel to take responsibility for the decisions he had made.

"Remember, this is not the time to show your protest. You have been allowed to refuse for a month, but you are only carried away in your sadness, which sadness you don't know who you are aiming for, "said Axel's mother.

"Without a mother saying that I already know. This marriage is only for you, not for me," replied Axel.

"At least you already know how the rules are in all kingdoms."

Axel smiled. "Okay, I just smile, make a promise, and go back to my room."

Axel also went to meet his father who was chatting with other members of the kingdom who have guests. Even though his heart still really refused, Axel could act like he was happy. This is the bitter part of being in the royal circle, and being part of a reliable royal member.

But, another part of being proud of is that Axel is always praised for his bravery, good looks, and success, which always wins on the battlefield, and can lead troops well. He has also complained that he would become a great king just like his father who succeeded in leading the kingdom.

Talking for a long time with guests who have come. The royal gatekeeper announced that the bride was near. The soldier assigned to secure the event also asked guests to be in the position that had been prepared, namely on the left and right of the red-carpeted road.

Axel was escorted by his father and mother to the altar to welcome Charlotte.

Axel, who had been trying to smile, and was acting happy, could no longer emit a smile. His face turned flat as his bride drew closer to the venue.

Everyone looked and whispered about the prince, but they only thought that Axel was very nervous at his wedding.

"Remember! Watch your attitude in this event," whispered Alex's mother.

"Smile, Charlotte will get off the horse carriage," continued the father.

Axel was depressed by what his parents were doing. Finally, he, who was in his father and mother, expressed his latent heart. What he said made the eyes of the king and queen immediately widen their eyes and stare seriously at the crown prince.

"I can't do it anymore."

Axel stepped up to turn around.

Charlotte listened to her father who was talking to the king of the Nirvana Kingdom. She already knows how the kingdom reigns in this country. All the regions under the king's leadership were very prosperous, and they belonged to the very rich kingdom category. Charlotte imagines what life would be like if she entered the Nirvana Kingdom as the son-in-law of the king.

"You overheard your father's conversation?"

From behind her mother rebuked her who was watching her father and the king of the Nirvana Kingdom talking.

"N-no," said Charlotte.

"Do you remember, Axel? Didn't you guys play together a lot? " asked Charlotte's mother.

"Yes, I still remember it, but I'm not interested in it."

Charlotte then left the room to her room.

Along the way to her room, Charlotte just smiled remembering what she had heard earlier. If indeed the marriage did happen, it would seem like he was reaching her dream of marrying someone she dreamed of. she had admired Axel for a long time, wishing her father would make a deal long ago, and now it's happening.

However, Charlotte doesn't want to be seen as accepting and liking Axel so much, she doesn't want to be a woman who is underestimated by Axel. Charlotte wants to act firmly and sell expensive so that Axel knows that she is not a women who easily accepts men.

"You ignored me the last time we met, Axel, and now your karma has come. I will come back and be your best woman, you will not be able to refuse it again, "said Charlotte.

Charlotte seemed to be taking her revenge on Axel. She just needs to prepare to hear the official notification from her father about the marriage. Even though she actually couldn't take it anymore, and wanted to ask directly.
