Getting married was easy, but maintaining a marriage was difficult. That was why in the perfect order of the Alchemist society, marriage would only happen after they are sure of their partners. Some Alchemists engage in a relationship for hundreds of years before they finally decide to get married.
Ned and Portia were married after being in a relationship for nearly 200 years. Lauriel was about to marry his girlfriend, Luna, after they had been together for more than 150 years.
Unfortunately, Luna died in the war before they could formalize their marriage. Until now, Lauriel could not find the grave where she and the child in her womb were buried.
His great love for Luna made Lauriel unable to open his heart to other women even after nearly a century. He enjoyed his solitude in the world and only devoted his attention only to his goddaughter, Aleksis, and the animals in his conservation.
Aldebar, one of the most eligible bachelors among the Alchemists, was also still very relaxed in matters of love. He was not looking for a partner and no single woman could attract his attention. His mind was preoccupied with research and inventions to improve the lives of humankind.
You could say that only Flora and Caspar were an anomaly among the Alchemists in the matter of finding a partner. Flora fell in love with her best friend since they were little. He was an ordinary person, and was willing to run away from home so that she could marry him because she did not get the blessing from her parents.
Caspar, who was a famous womanizer for centuries, changed girlfriend as often as he changed clothes. He got slapped by karma 21 years ago when he fell in love with an ordinary girl who was not impressed by his wealth and his good looks and didn't reciprocate his feelings.
Soon Caspar realized that the woman he fell in love with was the only woman he wanted to have by his side in his immortal life, and within six months, after working very hard to woo the girl, he succeeded in marrying Finland. They had lived happily in marriage for 20 years and they had three children together.
However, those anomalies were nothing compared to what Aleksis, his daughter, did!
The girl was obsessed and fell in love with an older man whom she met when she was 12 years old, and when they met again when she was almost 20 years old, she managed to make him fall in love with her and become her boyfriend ...
Then, in FOUR DAYS, they had their wedding.
Really, this was something that had never happened in the history of the Alchemists for hundreds of years.
At dinner, Aleksis impulsively asked Alaric to marry her, and he granted her request unconditionally. Before the clock struck 10 times that night, they had officially become husband and wife under the laws of Singapore, where they both resided at that time.
Their faces looked very happy as they emerged from the chapel, hand in hand.
"Tomorrow I'll be in London, and you'll be in school. Where do you want to go now?" Alaric asked, while helping Aleksis enter the car. The door had been opened by the driver for them, but he still showed concern by holding Aleksis up as she entered the backseat.
"Let's go home to your mansion," Aleksis said. "Tomorrow I can take you to the airport, then go back to the dormitory. I will skip class tomorrow. I only have one class, and it's not important."
"OK." Alaric nodded to the driver who immediately understood to bring his master and his new lady to the Mansion.
When the car started to move, Alaric pressed the window button on the car door and lowered the right and left windshield by halfway. The driver immediately responded by slowing down the vehicle so that the incoming wind was not too strong and they wouldn't feel cold.
Aleksis was stunned. She turned to Alaric, then to the half-open windows, then back to Alaric.
"You ... are you no longer keeping the directions to your house a secret?"
Alaric had lowered the dark windows of his car, so now Aleksis could see the road they were on, and she could now see that the car was heading towards Bukit Timah area.
Aleksis' mouth opened slightly in surprise. She did not expect that Alaric would change this fast. Yesterday, he was still very particular about his privacy, but now, he casually showed her where the mansion was located.
Alaric just smiled at Aleksis' surprised expression. Amused, he placed his index finger in front of Aleksis' half-opened lips, and patted them softly.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" he asked in an amused tone. "You don't like the window being rolled down?"
Aleksis hurriedly shook her head. "No ... it's not it. I like it!"
She gave Alaric a heartfelt kiss, then leaned her head against the man's chest and enjoyed the view from the car window. She finally knew the way to her husband's house. The road had now been opened and she could come at any time.
Fifteen minutes later they entered the gate to the familiar mansion. Aleksis very excitedly got out of the car and looked around the mansion and the surrounding area.
She really liked the lush environment and the various luxurious mansions there. She now knew where they were. She could barely contain her happiness.
"Are you happy?" Alaric asked her.
Aleksis nodded vigorously and stretched her hands to fill her lungs with fresh air from the lush mansion, which was surrounded by trees and other plants. After repeatedly coming here, for the first time, she felt like she was at home.
It was a similar feeling like when she met Alaric many times in the past without knowing his name. Now that they knew each other and she knew the man's identity, not just his name, the connection between them felt much stronger and deep.
This man and his mansion made Aleksis feel like she was at home.
"Don't stay outside for too long, you'll catch a cold," Alaric said, inviting Aleksis inside. The girl obeyed with pleasure.
Inside the house they sat for a while on the living room sofa while pondering about what had happened that day. Everything had happened so fast, and when the two arrived home, finally Alaric and Aleksis had the time to think about and assess the decision they made together.
The two looked at each other at the same time, then laughed. They were kindred spirits, they shared the same wavelength, and they sometimes thought of the same thing at the same time.
"Would Mrs. Rhionen like to drink some champagne to celebrate our wedding?" Alaric asked her.
"Mrs. Rhionen had drunk a lot during dinner tonight, but she won't refuse half a glass of champagne, because tonight is a special night," Aleksis replied with a big smile.
"All right ..." Alaric ruffled her hair before getting up to walk to the kitchen. He came back a few minutes later with a very expensive bottle of champagne and two glasses. He unscrewed the champagne bottle and then poured half a glass for each of them. "Cheers!"
They clinked their glasses and drank their champagne together, to celebrate their impulsive wedding moments ago.
"I love you," Aleksis said after putting down her glass and kissing Alaric's lips with so much love. Alaric could still taste the sweet champagne in her mouth.
