Fafnir and Tabit came out after the king and the queen after a few minutes. But as soon as they came out hand in hand, the crowd started cheering them too. There was so much excitement and happiness around that it was infectious.
That night it was impossible for the grooms to wait any further. While Rigel was standing with Lerna to showcase their relationship in front of their subjects, Fafnir was under no such obligation. He grabbed Tabit's hand and snuck out from there.
"Fafnir!" Tabit said, surprised as to where he was leading her. "What are you doing?" she asked, giggling.
