His Forever
On the day of their wedding, the weather couldn't have been more perfect. The summer was mild despite the sun being straight overhead. To Henry's standards, it was more of a spring in Hydrogia, which was why summer was his favorite.
The duke wouldn't call what he was going through cold feet, but when he thought about how he would have to stand before their families and bear his heart in only a few hours, he felt nervous. The looming night was also weighing heavily on his thoughts.
He couldn't stop pacing back and forth in the guest house. However, he was eventually kicked out, and the place was decorated for the wedding night, further driving a stake in his heart of nervous energy.
He wasn't allowed to see Irene at all before the ceremony so he couldn't lean on her for comfort either.
