Chapter 1007 The Simple Wedding

They could only make guesses but none of them would really know the truth of what happened to their crown princess. The knights spread the news that the mountain was now sacred and people shouldn't come near if they didn't want to be cursed by the ice god and died frozen.

Meanwhile, Rowena and Raphael had arrived in the royal palace and she immediately notified all the ministers and lords of the main houses to come and see her in three days for an important meeting. She would announce her father's death and take over power.

With Raphael's help, she was sure she could rule Ashland well and make her kingdom prosperous. After she sent the royal messengers to send the invitation to the ministers and lords in Ashland to see her, Rowena resigned to her chamber with Raphael. As soon as she closed the door behind her, the princess dropped to her knees. She was exhausted and just wanted to lie down.

"Hey, don't sleep here," Raphael chuckled and lifted her in his arms. He carried her toward her bed and gently placed her on the soft mattress. "You must be very tired."

Rowena nodded weakly. "I am not sure how long I was traveling to reach Ashland."

Raphael cleared his throat. "Around one month. Six weeks to be exact."

"Huh? I didn't remember traveling that long," Rowena was confused. "I left Cretea with the pegasus and reached the sea, and then I fell asleep on the pegasus' back. The next thing I know, I landed in front of the ice cave."

"You're not going through a normal timeline," Raphael commented. "Perhaps you were protected by the pegasus during the journey. They have magic too, you know. I had been looking for you for a long time before suddenly my heart told me to look for you in Ashland, the most unlikely place of all places."

"Hmm..." Rowena closed her heavy eyelids and mumbled. "I'm glad you came. I'm glad you followed your heart."

She moved her weak hands to hug him but she felt extremely tired that she had fallen asleep before she could wrap her hands around his waist.

Raphael smiled and pulled her closed and hugged her tightly, careful not to make her feel uncomfortable.

He was also glad he followed his heart when it came to Rowena.

Servants and knights who saw the couple couldn't help but think how good the two looked together. For the first time in so many years, they saw their princess with a genuine smile on her face. She no longer looked as cold and unapproachable as before.

Secretly they were happy for her. It seemed that her father's death was a life-changing experience that changed her life for the better.

They hoped she would be happy forever with the man she obviously loved who loved her back, doted on her, and always had that loving expression on his face whenever Rowena was around.

Finally, Ashland would have a king and queen who were happy together.

***

The wedding ceremony was short and simple, as requested by Rowena. It was officiated by the prime minister, Duke Valkior who was also Rowena's distant uncle from her father's side.

She and Raphael kissed under the white willow tree in the middle of the royal garden as part of the wedding ritual in Ashland, followed by everyone's cheer and congratulations.

Lady Liz and Lady Mary were especially teary-eyed when they saw the little girl they helped raise had now married a good man who treated her like the queen she was.

They were both secretly happy King Draco had died and Rowena could finally be free and happy.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty," Lady Liz smiled from ear to ear. "I hope you will have all the happiness in the world."

Raphael ended their passionate kiss and moved back a little to see Rowena's blushing face. She looked oh so gorgeous and he knew he was falling in love again, and again.

"I wonder what the white willow tree signifies," he whispered as he cast his glance around them. Rowena cleared her throat and answered shyly, "It is for good luck and for the married couple to be blessed with children."

"Ahh..." Raphael nodded in understanding. "I like that."
