Dawn of the Elements - Book 2: The Hand of Threngar

Chapter Fifteen: Royal Union

The organ began to play. As it did, the large doors began to open. Through the door, Silver could see Lyna, being lead by Thraxis. Silver took a moment, to absorb her beauty.

She wore a gorgeous white silk sleeveless dress, It's trails made of white lace. She had a pair of white lace stockings, encased in a set of white heels, straps holding the shoes in place. Her black and ruby Tiara sat proudly in her expertly braided hair. Finishing the look, was a bouquet of red and white roses.

Grenadine, Gail, Dresnia, and Stormie followed behind, alongside Terry, Gerry, and Grant. Silver watched as they approached, and had never felt happier.

Thraxis and Lyna arrived at where Silver, Gold, and Queen Serenity we're standing. Thraxis placed Lyna's hands in Silvers. Then the boys and girls took their places next to Silver and Lyna. "You aren't wearing your gloves?" Lyna asked, confused.

"I felt that, even though I can't feel with my right hand, that I wanted to be able to feel your hands in mine." Silver said. "Not through gloves, but my hands alone." Lyna blushed.

"You look beautiful, my dear." Silver added, lacing their fingers. "Like a Fairy put of a story book." Lyna smiled at her soon to be husband.

"You have your sister to thank for that." She smiled. "She insisted that she help design my wedding dress." She then chuckled. "I take it she got to you too?"

Silver joined her in chuckling a bit. "Yeah. She got after me for not being ready." He smirked. "I had something to take care of first." Lyna knew what he spoke of, and decided that she'd ask after the wedding.

"Dearly beloved. Friends, Family, both here, and departed." Queen Serenity began, tears in her eyes. "We are here today, blessed by Discord, Lybra, and the Six Elemental Deities, to bring Dr. Silver Drachma, and my daughter, Lyna Morningstar together, in holy matrimony."

"Silver, do you take Lyna to be your lawfully wedded wife?" Queen Serenity asked. "To have, to hold, and protect?" Silver looked Lyna in the eye.

"I do, Your Grace." Silver said, smiling at Lyna. "Lyna, ever since I've met you, I've been head over heels for you. Every day since then, I've dreamed of this day. Forever and always."

Lyna had tears forming in her eyes. "Lyna, do you take Silver to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Queen Serenity asked her daughter. "To have, to hold, and protect?" Lyna smiled at her mom.

"Mother, I do." She told her. She smiled at Silver through tears. "I nearly lost you twice. Living through that, was the hardest thing I've ever had to do." Silver brushed tears from her face. "But I know, that now, and forever, I'll keep you safe."

"Grenadine, the rings please." Queen Serenity asked her eldest daughter. She brought over two gold rings. The Queen watched as the two newlyweds put the rings on each other.

"With the power invested in me, I hereby pronounce you Husband and Wife." Queen Serenity said, smiling through tears. "Silver, you may kiss your bride." Silver wasted no time, and kissed Lyna.

Queen Serenity looked at Gold, Grenadine, and the bridesmaids. "If you want a chance at catching that bouquet, you better get out there." The group of girls ran out into the crowd of people.

Silver looked at his bride. "Ready?" Lyna nodded, and tossed her bouquet into the crowd. Silver watched where it was heading, and smirked. He watched the bouquet vanish into a mob of girls.

The bouquet surfaced, Gold on the receiving end. Queen Serenity smiles. "Alright everyone, settle down." She said, getting everyone's attention. "There's one last thing to take care of."

Grenadine scrambled her way out of the feminine mob, and onto the stage. She opened a box on the podium. Inside was a crown, and tiara, set upon a satin pillow. Silver knew this was coming, but Lyna did not.

"This is not just your wedding day." Queen Serenity said, smiling at the two teenagers. "This is also the day that I stand down as Queen, and you two take my place, as this kingdom's King and Queen."

Grenadine sat the crown on Silvers head. "It suits you, brother." She said, with a chuckle. Silver then watched as she replaced her younger sister's tiara.

"Allow me to introduce your King and Queen!" Serenity shouted. Silver was then tackled by Gold, who congratulated him.
