The after-wedding party wasn't quite what Lucien's parents had envisioned, but it was still enjoyable.
Since they couldn't afford a DJ or a band, they settled for live music prepared by Gibson—appropriate for a world reminiscent of the medieval era, it was an orchestra.
However, Seren had chosen the music, transforming modern songs into orchestral versions.
Lucien stood against one of the walls, a wallflower in the midst of the celebration.
He watched his parents partake in the "garter toss" after Amane had changed into a simpler wedding dress.
In the middle of the hall, Cassius was already headfirst inside her dress.
Moments later, he slowly retrieved the garter from her thigh with his teeth, sliding it down her leg until it was free.
The room erupted in cheers as he stood up, the garter dangling from his mouth.
