The atmosphere of the wedding tonight seems so crowded and full of happiness for the two brides. Nervilia and Elephas sat next to each other on the seat they had been provided for.

The guests were quite surprised by the different feel of the party from the previous wedding party. At this wedding, when they arrived at the entrance of Azalea palace, they immediately got a wedding souvenir also received a melodious flow from the musician Krisanthida.

Not only that, the guests can also see where Emperor Helarctor and his two wives sit on the right of the bride, then on the left there is King Monachus and his two wives.

The guests were even more surprised when there was a man who introduced himself as the host at this wedding.

Elephas who was next to Nervilia naturally frowned confusedly, "How is the concept of the wedding party designed by Sirena?"

"That's it, but I like it. The dress I wore this time was also the result of Sirena's design, this dress is very comfortable when I wear it." Nervilia looked at the dress she was wearing. The dress formed the curves of her body which made her flood of praise.

Elephas also dropped his eyes on the dress that Nervilia was wearing, "It seems like it does look comfortable. You don't have to use crinoline to make you complain."

"of course. Tonight I feel really happy, Elephas ..."

Elephas tightly embraced Nervilia's waist, "I am the same, dear ..." Elephas kissed Nervilia's lips at a glance. Anyone who saw the two must be envious, especially the unmarried women.

"HIS MAJESTY THE GREAT EMPEROR HYLOBATES MUELLERI LYN ALIOTH AND FAMILY ENTERED THE AZALEA PALACE ..."

All the gazes of the invited guests were fixed on the door, where Emperor Hylobates entered the Azalea palace with calm steps.

"TO THE EMPEROR HYLOBATES MUELLERI AND HIS FAMILY, WE WELCOME YOU ..." The host who is one of the legions in Manor Sirena also welcomed the arrival of the invited guests, although in his heart he felt sad because the person who taught him to be the host actually languished in prison.

Emperor Hylobates and his family made their way to the temple. They congratulated Nervilia and Elephas on the marriage after saluting Emperor Helarctor and King Monachus.

When it was Athanaxius' turn to congratulate him, everyone's gaze was fixed on Athanaxius. Athanaxius looked different from the man present at the party. Only Athanaxius had the blindfold on, but the man seemed to be able to see even though his eyes were closed.

"Congratulations to you." That is all that Athanaxius said. After saying that, Athanaxius got down from the lap to the seat that had been provided.

At that moment he heard a whisper about himself. But now he is the red-eyed man, not Athanaxius.

'They are all talking about you, Athanaxius.'

'Let me take over!'  Athanaxius growled stifled as the red eyes did not tell him when he took over.

"Prince Athanaxius was very handsome in spite of his curse."

"You're right. I'll have to dance with her later."

"Hey aren't you afraid of being killed by Prince Athanaxius?"

"Didn't you see? He used an eye patch, so I'll be safe!"

The brothers of Athanaxius followed sitting at the same table as Athanaxius, especially Panthero Leonard, his mother's favorite son who took a seat to the left of Athanaxius.

"Sister! Didn't you hear? There are many women who want to dance with you!"

"Of course it's because he wears an eye patch. If he didn't wear it, there would probably be a lot of women killed tonight. Really troublesome!" Salamandra grunts.

"Salandra!"

Salamandra turned her head, looking at her brother who had just reprimanded her, Lorius Megaptera. The son of Empress Spizalica.

"Whisper!" Athanaxius who tried to feel the presence of Sirena so unable to focus because of the actions of his brothers.

"I REPRESENT THE IMPERIAL FAMILY AND THE ROYAL FAMILY AS WELL AS THE MATCHING SPOUSES OF PRINCE ELEPHAS AND PRINCESS NERVILIA EXPRESS THEIR UTMOST GRATITUDE FOR HER TIME."

All eyes were focused on the host who began to invite the guests to pray together led by Hester.

"GOING TO THE MAIN EVENT, WHICH IS A SPECIAL DANCE THAT WILL BE PERFORMED BY THE BRIDE AND GROOM ... LET'S MOVE ON TO THE DANCE ROOM WE'VE PREPARED."

The door to the left of the main Azalea palace was wide open. The host walked towards it, led Elephas and Nervilia and was followed by the invited guests.

In the dance room there is a stage where the dance music accompanists are located. There is also a large piano on the left side of the stage.

"Sir Athan! I heard information from a Princess, that Princess Sirena is inside the dungeon of the Alhena Empire!" Athanaxius who had been silent could not help but be surprised.

Panthera was pleased when Athanaxius finally responded, "Say, Princess Sirena threw a tantrum while in Hypatia."

So because of this he did not feel the presence of Sirena. The woman is in prison.

"PRINCE ELEPHAS AND PRINCESS NERVILIA ARE WELCOME TO THE CENTER OF THE ROOM ..."

Elephas and Nervilia walked towards the center of the room. They then face each other with a big smile, ready to dance.

But all of a sudden all the candles are lit out, to make the room immediately dark. Then there is a light that leads to the piano on the left side of the stage.

"CHUCK! ISN'T THAT PRINCESS SIRENA?"

"Why is he here? Princess Sirena should be in jail!"

Athanaxius immediately opened his blindfold when he heard the voices of the invited guests who mentioned the name Sirena. His gaze focused on Sirena who was illuminated by a white light and sat on the piano chair.

"There is no gift I can give to Princess Nervilia and Prince Elephas. So instead, I will accompany their dance with the song I will sing." 

Elephas was surprised, "Didn't Sirena not be able to play any instrument?"

Nervilia turned to look at Elephas, "I don't know either, maybe she studied silently, who knows?"

"Daughter of Nervilia and Prince Elephas ... Enjoy the dance ..." Sirena then began to press the piano keys with her clasped fingers.

I found a love for me.

Darling, just dive right in, and follow my lead.

Everyone was stunned to hear Sirena's sweet voice, especially Athanaxius who had heard Sirena sing twice.

I found a girl - beautiful and sweet.

Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

Elephas and Nervilia started the dance. Elephas felt that the song Sirena had performed was so fitting for him.

Cause we were just kids when we fell in love,

Not knowing what it was.

I will not give you up this time,

But darling, just kiss me slow,

Your heart is all I own,

And in your eyes you're holding mine.

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms,

Barefoot on the grass, while listening to our favorite song.

When you said you looked a mess, I whispered beneath my breath

But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonnage.

Well I found a woman, strong than anyone I know.

She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home.

I found a love to carry more than just my secrets,

To carry love, to carry children of our own.

The couple danced and enjoyed the romantic song Sirena performed.

We are still kids, but we're so in love,

Fighting against all odds.

I know we'll be alright this time.

Darling, just hold my hand.

Be my girl, I'll be your man.

I see my future in your eyes.

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms,

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song.

I don't desire this, darling, you look perfect tonnage.

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms,

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song.

I have faith in what I see.

Now I know I have met an angel in person,

And she looks perfect, I don't desire this.

You look perfect tonnage.

Elephas and Nervilia finished dancing to Sirena's song.

The originally extinguished candles also re-lit which made the dance hall so bright. Not only that, the dance room is also as fragrant as lavender which is so soothing for anyone who breathes it.

"GUESTS ARE WELCOME TO DANCE ... AND PRINCESS SIRENA, DO YOU WANT TO SING A SONG AGAIN?"

The host who was Sirena's man tried not to cry when he saw her presence.

"If Princess Nervilia and Prince Elephas allow, I will perform one more song to accompany the dance for another." Sirena said with a smile on her lips.

"I'll allow." Nervilia spoke out loudly.

Guests who have found a dance partner also come to the middle of the room to dance.

Princess Kayanaka who saw the figure of Athanaxius immediately approached the man.

"Prince Athanaxius ... It's been a long time since we've met." Princess Kayanaka bowed in salute to Athanaxius.

Athanaxius again put on his blindfold when he found out who the person in front of him was, "Daughter of Kayanaka ..."

Kayanaka looked up, looking at the handsome face of Athanaxius, "Will you dance with me?" Without waiting for Athanaxius' approval, Kayanaka drew the man's hand into the center of the room which made them the center of attention, especially Sirena.

From her place Sirena could see the loving gaze of Kayanaka to Athanaxius. Sirena snorted, but she chose to ignore, her fingers pressed the piano keys again. She performed the song Beautiful in white - Shane Filan.

Not sure if you know this

When we first met

I got so nervous I couldn't speak

In that very moment

I found the one and

My life had found it's missing piece

They all started to dance, as did Athanaxius and Kayanaka.

So as long as I live I love you

Will have and hold you

You look so beautiful in white

And from now til my very last breath

This day I'll cherish

You look so beautiful in white

Tonights

Sirena continued to watch over Athanaxius who seemed to enjoy his dance with Kayanaka. Suddenly he felt his fingers start to limp to press the piano keys.

What we have is timeless

My love is endless

And with this ring I

Say to the world

You're my every reason

You're all that I believe in

With all my heart I mean every word

So as long as I live I love you

Will haven and hold you

You look so beautiful in white

And from now til my very last breath

This day I'll cherish

You look so beautiful in white

Tonights

The feeling of tightness began to be felt Sirena. Especially when everyone was fixated on the dance that Kayanaka and Athanaxius did. They seem to be a couple who fell in love and separated for thousands of years and then met again.

Oooh oh

You look so beautiful in white

So beautiful in white

Tonights

And if a daughter is what our future holds

I hope she has your eyes

Finds love like you and I did

Yeah, and when she falls in love, we'll let her go

I'll walk her down the aisle

She'll look so beautiful in white

You look so beautiful in white

So as long as I live I love you

Will haven and hold you

You look so beautiful in white

And from now til my very last breath

This day I'll cherish

You look so beautiful in white

Tonights

You look so beautiful in white

Tonights

Sirena managed to sing the song Beautiful in white despite her cold heart. Sirena stood up from her seat, showing how beautiful she is tonight. With a blue-colored dress that looked simple yet elegant, Sirena was truly like a Goddess that had fallen from the sky.

But alas, no one praised his performance even for just applauding. They all praise Athanaxius and Kayanaka who dance best among others.

So Sirena decided to leave. For the umpteenth time, Sirena was disappointed.

'For the umpteenth time, I feel the disappointment that the original Sirena felt so much. When they were all happy, Sirena was a flood of tears.' Sirena wiped away her tears.
