Hi everything 👋 before read yuk Like, rate, vote and coment ya😊🙏

Sweet greeting, dear,

Tirpha_ledina's chat.

...Happy reading 😘...

Everyone at the venue applauded and gave some praise for Sherly's sudden announcement. Devina and Azura were surprised instead of playing, both of them were completely unaware of it. Devina called out to the mother who was still talking to some guests.

"What did Mom say?" Devina.

"For a moment, I have to talk to my son." The nobles began to leave Sherly and Devina.

Erik restrained Azura's shoulder that was about to protest. Surprised, Azura brushed off the rough hands of Erik which made the guests' attention on her. Dislike and hateful gazes began to rain down on Azura, they certainly did not like when their Lord was badly needed by a lowly human like Azura.

"This lowly man is very brave, it is fortunate that he was made a successor pair of holy witches. Humans are indeed very selfish and greedy," said Someone who is certainly able to arrive at Azura's hearing is very sharp.

"I wonder why the holy witch even betrothed her son to a weak human?" Said one of the immortal beings.

"Truly disgusting human being."

"No shame."

"He is quite handsome than any other human being, but it's a pity that he remains in the weak human race."

Azura did not care about such scorn, she only felt strange because everyone thought of her as a human. They were all immortal, where maybe they didn't realize that Azura was a pure vampire. Erik fell silent, as his hand touched Azura's shoulder. He could feel that something strong was protecting Azura, the power even made his hand tremble.

All representatives of many families have long been eyeing the position of Levi or Devina couple. There is no such thing as loyalty in this kingdom, they only side with the strong. Erik knew about it, they were all cunning and thirsty for power and strength. Levi, Nana and Kiki stopped to eat all the dishes on the serving table.

"Stop eating Kiki" said Nana but Kiki instead sped up her hand to pick up a lot of chips.

Nana eventually pulls Kiki away from the chips to get into the crowd. After successfully tucking in between the guests they were immediately suguhi the sight of Azura who looked confused. He expressed what he thought several times, Azura really could not cover up what he was thinking.

"Liat, that stupid kid. Why did he give such an expression?" Nana.

"Master? Is she afraid of marriage?" Guess Kiki and get a nod from Levi as well as Nana.

One of the men came forward, the clothes filled with a lot of jewelry made him appear to shine because he was exposed to light. His face looked haughty as he looked at the representatives from the other families. The man intends to persuade Azura and Devina to be annulled on the grounds of Azura being inappropriate.

"Your Majesty, this match is too soon? He is also just an ordinary man. She's not comparable to Miss Devina?" Said the man.

"Are you questioning my decision?" Said Erik with a sharp gaze and a strong mental press.

That person instantly trembled in fear due to the pressure given by the Lord. Erik sat back on his throne, Devina was already standing next to Azura. Sherly understands her son's feelings, but it's not without her doing this. Azura is a suitable person to accompany Devina who has dark magic on her body.

"The party is over! You can go, "Erik said to drive out all the troublesome guests so they would no longer protest.

After everyone left. Kiki, Nana, and Levi, who were allowed to stay, began to hear every utterance from Devina and Azura. Erik let out a long sigh, Devina's refusal made it harder for him to match up with Azura.

"Azura, you have to take responsibility. The Alpha is like besieging my work" Erik said.

"They even built tents like humans doing demos. Devina, I've already released your magic seal. You also know, it takes a sacrifice to remove the seal." Erik's words made Devina stunned.

"alpha? Why did they choose me to be their leader?" Azura.

"And again, you have a life debt with Devina. You have to pay for it, make this engagement."

"But, uncle I'm not-" Devina's words were stopped by Sherly using silent magic.

Devina looked question mark at the mother. Sherly who sees it can only close her eyes, this matchmaking must still be done for the survival of Devina. Azura was speechless, she indeed owed Devina a debt. If he hadn't helped her, he might have become a cold corpse in the castle.

"Hufft.. All right, I'm gonna do this engagement." Azura looked solemn with her words while Devina was surprised at that.

A silver colored ring appeared in front of Devina and Azura. Sherly guides Devina's hand to join Azura. There were thousands of yellow colored lights appearing, Devina's ring landed in Azura's hand and Azura's possession landed in Devina's hand. Sherly's magic came off and let Devina who had rebelled since then finally fell silent.

"Why do you want to do this ridiculous thing?" Devina.

"I may not have more feelings than a friend. But if this engagement can help you out of dark magic I'll do it. We are friends" Azura said.

Devina did not answer, she could not hide the look of her disappointed face and was slightly touched by Azura's words earlier. Devina then put a ring on Azura's hand with a bit of her magic energy. Azura also did the same to Devina's ring finger. The two rings were gloriously shining which signified there was already a bond between Azura and Devina.

"Wow, I love that ring. Beautiful," said Nana who looks amazed by the couple's ring.

"You likey? What if we do the same thing that Kak Devina and Azura did?" Said Levi and made Nana tilt her head in confusion.

"Auntie," Call Levi with a bright smile.

"Can you give me a ring like that? I also want to be in a match with Nana," said Levi with a sparkling face but suddenly Nana kicked Levi's leg.

"Who would you like to marry?" Nana said with cheeks that were swollen with anger.

"Wahh, cute." Levi's words again upset Nana.

Kiki who is still cool chewing chips directly encouraged Nana to stand next to Levi. Nana then turned her head away from Levi while folding her hands on her chest.

"Sana, you just wear that ring with Kiki. And remember! I'm not cute!" Nana.
