Mistress Of Enchanting Dragon

Chapter 161 - Mother In Law

So after talking to him, Mira didn't find it necessary for Silja to please the Queen. 

So she let them wait out and didn't inform Silja about their arrival.

It will be best if they get offended and break this marriage themselves.

With that thought she made them wait for long. 

Outside in the garden, Abrielle had a frown on her face as she waited for Silja.

Genevieve was also starting to get impatient. It has been almost an hour since they had come but Silja has yet to show up.

After waiting for such a time Abrielle decided to leave.

"Let's go, seems like princess Silja is busy," Abrielle was queen after all. No one has ever stood her up and that too in her own house.

This was a great offence, but Abrielle didn't want to make this ugly and decided to leave first.

She stood up and Genie followed behind.

As they were about to walk away some called them from behind.

"Your majesty," Silja was standing at the back entrance of the garden which was connected to the guest room area.

Abrielle stopped her footsteps and turned around.

Silja walked towards them quickly, "I'm sorry for making you wait for long," Silja apologized as soon as she reached near and bowed her head slightly.

Abrielle looked at the girl and her sharp eyes scrutinized the young woman.

Silja's face was bar without any hint of makeup. Since she had just come out of the hot bath, her cheeks were tinted red. 

Water was dripping from her wet hair which she had tried to tie behind simply.

She was wearing a simple light blue dress with long sleeves and simple embroidery at the bottom of the skirt.

It was confirmed that she has wasted time getting ready.

"It's okay, you must have been tired after going through tremendous things in the past few days," Abrielle smiled simply and then sat down on her previous seat. 

If it was anyone else Abrielle would have never acted this kind but since Silja was the one who helped his son to come out of dragon creek, she decided not to take this little incident to heart.

Mira was a bit displeased and also shocked that even after waiting for such a long time Abrielle didn't seem to be offended. She stood behind silja with a frown on her face.

After seeing that Abrielle wasn't angry Silja breathed a sigh of relief. Then she turned around and saw little Genie smiling at her brightly.

"Hello, princess Genevieve," Silja turned in Genie's direction and greeted her.

"Hello, sister in law, it is very nice to meet you. You are looking beautiful," Genie walked towards Silja and took her hand in her own hand and said excitedly.

Silja was speechless as she heard her way of greeting her.

Sister in law?

A strange feeling rose in Silja's heart as he heard those words coming from a little girl who was smiling dazzlingly at her.

Silja forced an awkward smile and looked at Abrielle.

Although it was decided that Silja was going to marry Donovan, and technically Genie could call her sister in law but it still felt a bit different hearing it since they had yet to hold the wedding.

Silja looked at Abrielle thinking that she might have something to say about it but Abrielle was sitting there calmly, not affected at all.

Well, it seems like everyone has already accepted her as Donovan's wife. Silja sighed in her heart and took a seat beside Abrielle while Genie was on the other side.

"Donovan must have informed you that the wedding is going to be held tomorrow evening," Abrielle then became serious and asked.

"Yes I'm aware," Silja nodded gently.

"It will be hard for your parents to arrive at short notice, but it's good that your brother is already here," Abrielle said. They had already sent invitations to all the families of ladies who have participated in competitions to come of the summer festival. But Silja's parents never arrived. And since they were human they didn't have the ability to fly and reach in a few days here.

"You sent latter my parents?" Silja instantly become worried as she heard that. She could imagine her parent's reaction.

They will be definitely worried after finding out. She has decided that she will directly tell them after she went to Atlanea after marriage as Donovan promised her.

But she didn't expect King Zachary to send latter in advance.

"Of course. After all, you are their daughter and they have right to know,' Abrielle said.

Silja pressed her lips worriedly.

"The ceremony will be simple near the river bank and everything will be arranged by our family so you and your brother don't have to worry about anything," Abrielle stated.

"But if you have any special requirements you can tell me now. Donovan has already asked someone to make a wedding dress and jewellery for you," Abrielle added.

She has asked her son about the wedding dress but he said that he said that he will make arrangements himself.

And he also wanted the ceremony to be a small one. But king Zachary didn't agree to it. 

It was the first marriage of Donovan's generation and since the whole castle was bustling with guests already it would be rude not to include them in the marriage.

In the end, he convinced Donovan to agree to that one condition.

Now that Silja was here and they were holding the ceremony in such a hurry it was their responsibility to ask Silja if she needed anything. 

What she actually wanted was time But it was a pity that they couldn't give it to her. 

Donovan has made up his mind and he wasn't going to change it.

In the end, Silja also resigned to her fate. 

"I don't have any requests," Silja shook her head.

Abrielle frowned hearing that "Why not, you are the bride. Don't you have anything special in mind for your wedding day?"

"Yes sister in law, you can tell us and mother Will help you arrange it. It wants we can go to see the venue and then you can also give suggestions about the decoration you want," Genie chimed excitedly.

"It's pity that my brother told me that he will take charge of the wedding dress so you want to be able to say much in it. But if you want we can still look for something in spare. So if you don't like dress prepared by brother you can wear it," Genie suggested.

"It's okay, princess Genevieve. I have nothing particular in mind. You guys can decide everything as you seem fit," Silja smiled.

Wedding dress? 

She didn't know what she should wear, so it's better to let him decide.

There were far more important things to pay attention to now.

"Alright then, but still if you change your mind, you can always look for me," Abrielle nodded in understanding. She has noticed Silja's behaviour from the day she arrived in the north. And from what she has understood she could tell that Silja wasn't just a pretty lady of the royal family. The way she carry herself was elegant but there was no arrogance in that. She was a simple and more situation focused person.

So it was understandable that she didn't want to take part in anything.

Furthermore, even Abrielle was thinking that this marriage was too sudden for Silja. And marriage was a very big matter for anyone woman. And Silja was also a special case since she was going to marry in a foreign land without even her parents or people.

Abrielle then stood up and both young girls also stood up behind her.

"I would take my leave then," the queen smiled at Silja.

"It was very nice of you to come here personally. And im extremely sorry for making you worried," Silja said sincerely.

"I didn't take anything to heart. Since you are going to be part of my family soon we will welcome you wholeheartedly. And these small things are nothing between family members isn't it," Abrielle held a warm smile as she said that. She then looked behind at Mira who was standing there at some distance with a sulen face. Abrielle was such a smart person, how could she not feel the hostility coming from a maid. But for now, she decided to ignore it.

Seeing her a soothing feeling washed over Silja's heart.

We didn't seem that bad to marry him after all.

At least Abrielle doesn't look like those typical Queen or mother in law.

Plus there was Donovan's sister Genie who seems to be very sweet.

Mira who was standing at the side frowned hearing those words.
