Tempting Fate-Chapter 135

135 Chapter 135: The Wedding

Reed and Emy’s wedding will begin shortly. After Reed got dressed, he immediately went to Emy’s room. When he opened the door, he saw the girl first. She looks stunning in a dress. He requested that Emy wear white, which his servants followed. The servants immediately left them in the room. Reed approached the girl, both hands in his pockets while staring at his wife.

“You’re so beautiful...” Reed said.

Emy blew out the air and smiled slightly. “My mind is telling me not to do it, but my body and heart are.” Emy giggled slightly. “I don’t know if it’s nervousness or excitement...”

Reed smiled. He removed one hand from his pocket and stroked Emy’s cheek with the back of his finger.

“Let’s go? I can’t wait to marry you again...”

Emy nodded slightly.

——-

As Reed and Emy stood on the stairs, there was loud drumming and a trumpet. They were all looking at the one below who was looking down on them. Emy was nervous. She was sure that everything in her life would change after that moment.

They started down the stairs. They could hear a piece of mesmerizing royal music throughout the kingdom. There were many people there, and the whole hall was almost crowded. Emy swallowed hard as she looked at the group of creatures in the distance. She could see their eyes twinkling and smiles on their lips. She suddenly felt fear as she tightened her grip on Reed’s arm.

.....

“Wifey, don’t look anyone in the eye,” Reed whispered.

Emy took a deep breath and continued down the stairs with Reed.

The two stood in front of the throne while one of the highest mages stood in front of them. The wedding ceremony began until Reed and Emy put on the ring. Then the crown was placed on them and even the black cape. The two faced everyone there, and loud drums and trumpets sounded again.

Devin was standing not far away. He was glancing at Emy, who was already seated on the throne on the left side of Reed. He turned to the other demons there. Everyone stares at Emy from soul-eating demons, vampires, wendigos, and other demons that eat humans alive or dead. Devin then left his seat.

“Are you alright, my queen?” Reed asked.

Reed stood up and approached Emy, who was still sitting. Everyone was having a good time inside the palace. A servant came to Reed, and Emy and Reed turned to face the servant. She had a tray of wine and was about to give it to the two of them, but Reed’s noticed the servant’s hand was shaking. The contents of the cup handed to him by the servant, which he promptly seized, can be seen moving. Next, she handed another cup to Emy. When Emy reached for it, the servant was about to walk away, but Reed spoke.

“Wait a minute,” Reed said.

The servant glanced over and immediately averted her gaze from Reed. “My king...”

Reed took Emy’s cup and handed it to the servant. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

“Drink it,” Reed ordered.

The female servant was surprised and did not move immediately. “I said drink it,” Reed said again.

Reed’s voice got louder, and everyone stopped what they were talking and doing. The whole hall fell silent. There was a look of fear on the waiter’s face, and he slowly reached for the cup that Reed was holding.

None of those present spoke. “Reed...” Emy said, but Reed ignored her.

Little by little, the female servant applied her mouth to the cup. “Drink and consume,” Reed ordered.

The servant followed, but before she had half the contents of the cup, she dropped it, and it fell to the floor. The servant grabbed her neck. She knelt in front of Reed and Emy. Eldron immediately brought the soldiers closer to the king and queen. Emy stood up and immediately held Reed.

Everyone notices the black blood spread on the floor from the servant’s mouth.

“Shut down the whole kingdom. No one will come out of the kingdom.” Reed growled, released black smoke, and it surrounded the entire kingdom. “Mage, help this servant. I want to know who ordered her to poison the queen.”

The two soldiers immediately approached, forced the female servant to her feet, and pulled her closer to the mage.

Reed looked at everyone there, who seemed surprised by what had happened. From Reed’s palm, he released black and red colored smoke. A symbol that he is the king of the whole realm.

“Anyone who attempts my queen’s life, I will make sure to pay with their lives. No matter how high or low your position in the realm, I won’t miss anything.” 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

Reed’s voice echoed throughout the kingdom like thunder. Strong and authoritative. Emy felt Reed’s fear at that moment.

“My king...” a mage whispered to Reed.

Reed turned to the mage. “She’s ready to talk.”

Reed nodded and turned to Emy. He grabbed Emy’s hand and pulled her away from the throne. But what everyone didn’t expect was what happened next. An arrow suddenly appeared out of nowhere, hitting the servant’s head and even penetrating her skull on the back of the head. The soldiers immediately approached Reed and Emy, then released black smoke enveloping the king and queen. Soldiers surrounded even former Eldron and the mages.

“Find out who did it and tell me...” Reed said, then pulled Emy into a hug as the soldiers surrounded them and headed up the stairs.

——

Reed feels angry and very annoyed while his soldiers stand guard outside their room. He stood by the window and peered out. Still, no one came out of the palace, and the soldiers patrolled outside and inside the kingdom.

“What’s going on, Reed?” Emy asked. “Does someone here want to kill me?”

Reed turned to Emy. He immediately approached her. He doesn’t want his wife to be afraid of their realm, and he needs to ensure she is safe there.

“I’m their target, not you,” Reed said. “Well, the soldiers are already looking for the culprit. You’ll be safe as long as I’m here.”

They turned when they heard a noise from outside the room. Reed heard Devin’s voice.

“Just a minute, I’m going to find out what’s going on outside,” Reed said.

Emy nodded and just sat on the bed. Reed immediately left the room and closed the door. Devin caught a glimpse of Emy seated on the bed.

“How is she?” Devin asked.

“She’s alive,” Reed said.

“That’s a relief,” Devin said. “Did you find out who was planning to poison him?”

“Couldn’t you?” Reed asked.

“Come on, Reed, that’s bullshit,” Devin said. “You know I can’t do that to Emy.”

“Then I don’t know. Still looking for the traitor who did that thing to the queen.” Reed said. He turned to the soldiers. “Find out what happened. I want to see the traitor who attempted my queen. If they don’t find the traitor, everyone in the palace, even the servants, will be imprisoned in the dungeon.”

One of the soldiers nodded and hurriedly walked away.

“What you’re doing. The guests at your wedding are elites, and you can’t have them...”

“They heard what I said earlier. If no one confesses or points out the audacity that who attempted on my queen, there will be punishment. I don’t care if they are elite or not because the welfare of my queen is more important than their lives. If you don’t have anything to say, you can leave. It’s our wedding night, and it’s only right that no one disturbs our honey milk.”

Reed turned and walked towards the bedroom door. He left Devin with his fist clenched as he stared at Reed.

——–

Emy turned to Reed when he entered. Reed’s eyebrows rose as he noticed that Emy was in Reed’s clothes. It was long and loose for Emy’s body. However, he did not lose his arousal for her wife.

“I wasn’t comfortable with what I wore earlier, so I changed. Is it okay if I borrow your clothes?”

Reed walked closer to Emy. Of course. All mine is yours, my queen.” Reed caressed Emy’s cheek with the back of his finger. “How are you feeling? Do you want something to eat?”

“There is...” Emy whispered. “You..”

Reed smiled. “My naughty queen.” Reed immediately picked up Emy and laid her on the bed. Reed placed both hands just above her head, then sensually kissed her husband’s lips. It only took a moment, but Reed also stopped.

“I’ll summon the mage...” Reed said, trying to get up from on top of Emy. But Emy grabbed his neck and stopped him from leaving.

“Where are you going?” Amy asked.

“I’ll have the mages check on you. I want to make sure you’re okay.” Reed said as he was about to leave again, but Emy pulled his neck again.

“I’m fine. I didn’t drink poison earlier. There’s no problem with my body.”

Reed smiled, then frowned slightly. He was surprised when Emy pulled his neck until she kissed him. Emy kissed him passionately. At first, he didn’t respond, but Emy moaned inside his mouth as she sucked his tongue like he was going crazy. He was also surprised when Emy put her hand inside his dress and fingered his two nips with her thumb.

“Oh shit!” he groaned at what Emy did. He immediately distanced himself from the girl and hurriedly took off his clothes. “Damn it. My queen, I feel bothered when you tease me. Now I have to punish you....”

Emy smiled and took off her clothes.
