Adalia the daughter of the shadow hero ~ chapter 15 ~ To save a shadow.
I spent the whole party next to Andrew, people came over to congratulate us. Dad made himself rather merry. Andrew, no matter how much I asked, refused to tell me where we were going for our honeymoon. After about 5 hours, people began to head home. Andrew had gone to have a private word with Dad and Queen Vanessa. Phoenix had pulled me into a hug, around about 34 minutes ago, and she hadn't let me go. I yawned, Craven was trying to get me out of Phoenix's strong embrace. "
" I think it is time we got going, we have quite a long journey ahead" Andrew smiled, phoenix let me go (finally), but I was pulled into Andrew's embrace.
" I doubt I'll make it. I'll surely die of being over loved" I joked. Andrew chuckled.
" Stay safe" Dad kissed my forehead.
" I will dad, promise. And I won't shoot anyone" I grinned, dad smiled proudly at me. A carriage was waiting outside for us. " Now will you tell me where we are going? " I looked at him
"It's a surprise " Andrew laughed. We got into the carriage. I waved to my family. When they were out of sight. I leaned back, Andrew took my hand." I promise that you will enjoy this trip "
" I trust it will " I smiled, I leaned against Sndrew, I was tired out from today's events.
" You should rest, I will wake you " Andrew said. I nodded, I slowly drifted off to sleep.
" Time to wake up Princess" Andrew muttered, I woke up, I yawned. I looked out of the window, we were at a dock.
" What th... " I couldn't finish as Andrew picked me up and carried me to a big ship.
" There you are! " Phoenix came over" Right, if there is a single scratch on my ship I will kill you " She warned Andrew. I was half asleep, I closed my eyes again and fell asleep.
I woke up in a nice bed, I heard waves. So, we were on a cruise. I snuggled back into the bed. I felt someone behind me, I shuffled around and looked into the face of my dearly loved prince. He smiled at me lazily.
" Good morning, my love " He smiled and hugged me softly.
" Morning, now will you tell me where we are going? " I cuddled into his warm body.
" It is still a surprise, so you will have to wait. We will be there soon anyway" Andrew smiled and kissed my forehead.
" I guess I can wait a little longer " I mumbled, I didn't want to leave the warmth of his body, but a minute later the crew said land ahead, our destination. We got into clean clothes. I was slightly embarrassed about dressing while Andrew was in the cabin too, but we were husband and wife, I would have to get use to it.
" Coming Adalia? " Andrew asked, I was trying to lace up my corset, I usually had Claire to help.
" Just...trying to...get this...on.. " I gasped
" Don't wear it if you find it uncomfortable" Andrew said, he smiled at my continued failing attempts.
" But, my father... " I began.
" I won't tell him. Anyway you are the princess and my future Queen of Albion " Andrew said, he took my corset. Before I could say anything else, he pulled a dress over my head, he wss dressing me like a child. When he had finished tieing up the back, I turned to face him.
" I was capable of doing that myself " I told him
" I know, but you would have spent forever getting that damned corset on" Andrew chuckled, I rolled my eyes but I couldn't help smiling.
