Dark Mortals

☆♡Their Love☆♡

It was the morning of the wedding. Estella had woken up very early. She felt a bit nervous and uneasy, she had to bake a huge wedding cake after all.

Her entire mind was on the cake.

She had spent the entire morning and afternoon with her co-workers baking the cake and designing it. She had many people working with her.

Estella focused completely on the cake and its perfection. She couldn't be bothered with her tiredness.

Currently, she was looking at every corner, every part, every detail of the cake. She gave it a few finishing touches and it was done.

It looked just perfect.

Her hands were aching and she was extremely tired. But still, she was overjoyed and was proud of herself and her coworkers.

Now she just wanted to go home and rest up to look fabulous for the wedding.

"Gosh, I'm nervous."

Bella couldn't be more anxious for the special occasion. She was sitting in front of the mirror and was getting her makeup and hair done. The makeup artists and her mother were crowded around her.

There were a total of twelve people there; Bella, her Maid of Honor, three bridesmaids, three junior bridesmaids, her mother and the makeup artists; all looking busy with their respective jobs.

"You need to calm yourself, honey." Bella's mother looked at her, rubbing her arm soothingly.

Esmeralda didn't need any makeup artist. She had brought her items and wasn't planning on caking herself with tons of makeup.

She had worn the gown and was now focusing on her light makeup. Esmeralda had worn burgundy sandals to match the colour of her dress as suggested by her mother.

According to her, there was no need for any jewellery but Bella and the stylists had insisted she wear at least one piece of jewelry so she decided to wear her long, dangling silver earrings.

She combed her hair and applied eye shadow of a light pink shade and did the aesthetic 'Korean gradient lip makeup' on her pink lips.

She smiled at her reflection and examined herself. A satisfied look fell on her face.

Perfect.

A gentle kiss was planted on Estella's lips to wake her up.

She opened her eyelids to see Aldric's face close to her, a smile on his face. She gave him a smile in return and closed her eyes again, feeling too sluggish.

"You gotta wake up, my love." Aldric sat on the bed, next to her as he rubbed her arm slightly.

His request was only met by a 'no' from Estella. Aldric gave another smile to her sleepy face and planted another kiss on her lips.

Estella snuggled into his arms and let the warmth from his body comfort her. "Did you talk to Esme and Ray?"

"Yeah. I did. I'm relieved that things are kind of better between us now Ella. Although I only talked to them about the wedding. I was too nervous.''

Estella smiled, "I heard you spent lots of time with them yesterday Aldric."

"That's right." Aldric agreed placing tender kisses on her temple, cheek and jaw. "Esme and Ray took me to a spa where we got our facials and funny stuff done. After thay Ray and I painted her nails. Then I gave Ray another of his lessons for car driving; we had so much fun but my poor son almost crashed the car. Then we three played board games."
