------------------
A month later all preparations have been finished. All of the Immortal World was in a festive mood. The day everyone has been waiting for was coming.
The Immortal King's wedding.
The capital was busy with the final check of the wedding preparation and the palace was in chaos. Lia sat in her room and sighed as she looked out of the window, "I never thought you all would make such a fuss about it"
"What are you talking about? It's our dear Immortal King's once-in-a-lifetime-ticket to absolute happiness!" Lily grinned as she stuffed some popcorn in her mouth.
"Lia!'' Suddenly the door flung open and a breathless Susa appeared.
"Why- Hey! Make sure to keep him properly at bay! It's bad luck if the groom sees the bride before the wedding!" Susa shouted into the hallway as chaos and shouts erupted.
"Wifey!" this whine was clearly the person Lia was going to marry.
"Damit Yano, play by the rules!" this was Mil.
"Don't use your power for this!" this was Mika.
"When Maria and I get married, I won't act this pathetic," and this was obviously Timo.
Susa shut the door when more shouts appeared. Embarrassment crept up and Lia buried her head in her hands while Lily only chuckled.
Holn was a bad influence. But the slight nervousness Lia felt instantly evaporated.
Did Yano do this on purpose knowing how restless she felt?
This was a big day for Lia. It was her wedding. Her first and only wedding. Her engagement with Min was long forgotten and thrown away.
"Lia! Why haven't you changed yet? Hurry! Your wedding will be in a few hours already!" seeing the messy hair on Susa, Lia couldn't help but laugh, "I was waiting for you, of course. It's fine, the wedding doesn't have to to be perfect. It just needs to be full of happiness. Even if it's a messy one, as long as we're all happy, that's all that matters."
"Lia!" Susa teared up and held Lia in her arms.
"Look at you two go. Yano will be devastated with this affair," Lily wriggled her eyebrows.
"Right. How can you refuse the attendants? We need to doll you up!" Susa quickly got into her event planner mode again.
"I can dress myself."
"No, you can't! Lily, put down the snack and hurry to call them over now!"
"Yeah, yeah," once Lily opened the door, luckily Yano and the whole theatre was taking place somewhere else.
"Have you taken a bath yet?"
"I took one yesterday."
"Lia!" hearing her name being loudly abused again, Lia could only helplessly smile.
"Take one now! I won't take a no!"
Susa was scary when she was in this big mama role, "Don't forget tonight's also your wedding night!"
Oh.
Oh...
Lia almost forgot. She did promise Yano that after the wedding, they'd they'd... Lia instantly ran to the bath to clean herself. Afterwards, the attendants merciless whipped Lia into the routine they have been planning for so long for this day. Lia had to look absolutely impeccable.
Since it was the Immortal King's wedding naturally everyone wanted to witness this joyous occasion. So, the plaza has made way for many people to enjoy the sight of Lia and Yano tying the knot on the palace's balcony.
Honestly, Lia preferred a small and private wedding but her assistant was almost despairing and sulking after Lia didn't bring him some snacks from the Mortal World and as the Immortal King, she wanted to withhold such a grand ceremony from the Immortal World? Impossible!
Lia's assistant reminded her of Thelo, the whiney attendant in Noel's family. After they tied the knot, it was tradition for Lia and Yano to ride in a big carriage across the capital while the whole Immortal World celebrated with a festival.
Then, back at the palace, a banquet and party with everyone would take place. For this, all the families have been invited and once all of this has been endured, exhausted Lia would've to deal with Yano's abundance of stamina.
"Lia, look at you!" Nana, Eri, Maria, Skyla and Lini have all invaded Yana's room to see the beautiful bride.
Lia couldn't help but feel uncomfortable being stared at with big sparkling eyes as if everyone was living their dreams through her.
"Don't look at me like that," Lia stared at her reflection in the mirror before the red veil fitting to her red, magnificent and elegant dress covered her head.
It was undeniable that Lia in her wedding attire had a charming aura that could make everyone swallow their breaths and gape in awe.
"Ha, that fool will be going crazy seeing you like that," Skyla suddenly felt the urge to protect Lia from Yano and cancel this whole wedding.
Lia did hope Yano would find her beautiful, after all, which bride didn't want her soon-to-be husband to be head over heels seeing them in a wedding attire?
"Let's hurry! Everyone's waiting!" Lini rushed to the door.
"Rest assured, I made sure the security's impeccable," Eri proudly proclaimed and indeed, once Lia and Yano stepped onto the balcony, the peaceful crowd that had gathered on the plaza loudly cheered for this newly blessed couple.
Thanks to Yano, the whole wedding was broadcasted across the whole Immortal World. Yet in the dark night, illuminated by warm lights and countless lanterns filling the sky, on the balcony, there were only Yano and Lia living in their own world.
Holding hands they faced each other while the pastor carried on with his speech.
But for Lia, she could only hear Yano's cheeky comment, "Shall we run? Just the two of us?"
Lia lightly laughed and squeezed his hand, "Be serious."
Under her red veil, she could barely see Yano but she could feel his trembling hands, his warmth seeping into her and his nervous breathing. So, Yano was also not so confident.
The pastor finished his speech and declared, "Long live the Immortal King, long live the happy, married couple!"
The crowd cheered again. Massive shouts drowned out both Yano's and Lia's wildly thumping heartbeats.
The moment was here now. After exchanging the rings, the pastor said, "You may kiss the bride now."
In an instant, the world seemed to stand still, everything was plunged into silence and filled with anticipation.
Once Yano lifted Lia's veil, her bright eyes stared into his warm and loving ones.
At this moment, Lia was surprised. She reached out to wipe the tears from his eyes who said, "You look so beautiful."
"You're very handsome yourself."
The crowd who heard this exchange, heartedly laughed until they broke out in loud cheers again as Yano and Lia finally kissed.
The Immortal King was happily married. The couple, two people who have been through so much, joined each other's journey, created their own path and future, finally, finally attained the happiness they deserved.
Suffering, anguish, longing, despair and years upon years of excruciating and nostalgic waiting... all vanished in this very moment and faded away with the last breeze carrying the lanterns towards the moon conveying everyone's well wishes.
A destiny conquered, a fate defeated and an eternity of bliss to come.
With their lips parting yearning for more, Lia gently held Yano's face, smiling at him still tearing up.
"The carriage is ready," Lia softly said.
A long time ago, Lia, under a suffocating and cold atmosphere, boarded a carriage like this when her engagement to a cruel and heartless Ghost King was announced.
But now, stepping into this very same tradition, nothing but pure happiness, laughter and joy awaited her.
In Yano's arms, they watched the scenery all these immortals have worked hard on to turn into a festival worthy of this occasion.
"It's beautiful," Lia couldn't tear her gaze off the lanterns that graced every part of the street, the immortals clad in beautiful attires and the vendors and houses who went an extra mile to decorate their little place.
"It's not as beautiful as you," Yano pulled Lia away from the window and kissed her before he whispered, "It's a sin for you to be so enchanting, I hope you take proper responsibility for it tonight."
A few seconds after Yano's words settled in, Lia tried to escape him but they've already arrived at the palace again.
"Wifey, you can't run from me. I hope you know that."
With a bright red face, Lia covered underneath her veil again, they stepped into the party.
"My dear daughter-in-law who I've warned not to marry my good-for-nothing son, come here," Oldie took Lia into his arms.
"Why are you still wearing the veil though?"
"Oldie," Lia quickly took it off and beamed a smile.
"Call me father."
"Dad!" Yano embarrassed shouted, as all guests chuckled.
It was a wonder, a miracle, that Oldie was able to witness his son's return and happiness. Oldie didn't have long but when Lia told him Yano would be back, Oldie, with all of his might, hung onto his life and survived until his day, but it wasn't clear just how long he had left. Soon, very soon was the only thing Susa could say.
It wasn't only Oldie but Elder D, Elder T and Susa's parents all came to congratulate the happy couple.
Eri's and Maria's parents, as well as even Elder L, all wished Lia and Yano the best. Nana's siblings have prepared Lia a big flower crown, "Big sis wear this!"
While Eri's brother slightly embarrassed said, "Big sis looks very beautiful."
Yano instantly detected a rival which only made Lia scowl slightly.
A while later, as Lia and Yano sat at their table, they witnessed that for the first time Lu and Holn met each other's parents.
Holn's parents were the strict type, so Lu didn't to make it hard for Holn and didn't tell his parents about Holn's mischievous nature.
Everything was peaceful and joyous until midnight when Lia and Yano excused themselves under everyone's very knowing gazes that made Lia incredibly embarrassed.
"Wifey, don't be afraid. I'll be very gentle and loving."
Lia was fine until Yano had to open his mouth and say this because she was sure that Yano would be the complete opposite!
It wasn't that Lia was afraid to entangle with Yano, it was just that she was embarrassed. Having Yano see all of her and whisper sweet loving words of nothingness made Lia want to bury herself.
His care for her and his love was something she never experienced from Min, so when Yano showered her with all of it, Lia was still at a loss about what to do with it.
Of course, she wanted to return it all but sometimes Yano was too overwhelming.
She was sure her would make her even more embarrassed in bed. He already teased her but the dirty things he'd say Lia... wasn't ready for it!
"Don't worry, I'll ease you in," Yano said as he laid Lia down on the bed.
There! There it was! Saying things like this made her go on a roller coaster!
"Aren't you a virgin?" in her shock, Lia blurted anything and instantly realised her mistake.
"Oh?" Yano's voice was dangerously low, "Lia," he purred into her ear, "If you make me angry, you won't be able to rest for a week and leave the bed for a whole month."
Then he captured Lia's lips before he trailed along her neck and moved down to her chest.
She misspoke! Lia has misspoken! How could she appease Yano again?
He was definitely in a bad mood because she reminded him that she gave her first time to Min! She of course regretted it as well!
"My husband is the best, of course," Lia quickly said and wrapped her arms around Yano's neck as she suppressed a moan, "My wife is clever."
Another kiss. One kiss after another, one hickey after another, Yano's hands and lips moved down before they found themselves between Lia's legs.
Inexplicable pleasure and desire welled up and Lia gave herself fully to Yano.
A night filled with entangled lust, breathless cries and endless pleasure. A night of many, many to come.
"Don't be mad," Yano coaxed Lia as the sunlight hit the room and Lia, face down, laid on the bed unable to move.
"Who was the one who said 'gentle and loving'?"
"I'm sorry," Yano sulked and wanted to kiss Lia but all he got was the cold shoulder again.
Yano instantly laid back next to Lia and took her in his arms cautiously, "I'm really sorry, it was just the more I thrusted in you, the more I wanted you, I couldn't get enough, each time it drove me crazy how you swall-"
"STOP!" how could Yano how could he.. just how in the world was he shameless enough to say such lewd words?
"Of course, I'll let wifey rest during the day, then at night we'll-"
"Night?" Lia raised her eyebrow.
"Wifey, I'm already generous, if I could, I wouldn't leave your insides for the whole night and go for another round now."
"You! Get out now!" truly unbelievably shameless!
It seemed like Yano didn't know the consequences of stepping over the line!
Angry, Lia pushed Yano away but when her hand fell on his bare chest and saw all the scratches she left on it and his arm and also his back, Lia instantly hid under the blanket.
"I won't talk to you for a week!"
"Of course, all you'll be doing is moaning my name after all."
THUMP!
With all her might, Lia kicked Yano off the bed and summoned ghosts.
"W-Wifey?"
"Go and rethink what you've done wrong!"
And so the legend of the Immortal King's husband being chased by ghosts after his wedding night was told for generations to come.
Some say it was because he was too good, some say it was because he was too bad and some say it was because he fell asleep. Either way, this occasion happened many times over the course of the second Immortal King's reign. To the point, no one was surprised anymore.
