Vincentius Dante

{Three days later}

THE WHOLE castle was now getting prepared for the big day. My siblings told me that I would not indulge in decorating the castle, the responsibility was taken over by them. They strictly told Bellamy and me to chill.

And on top of that, Lukas decided to come up with an idea that both Bellamy and I will not see each other till the wedding day. I instantly denied that idea but later it was decided that I won't see her on the wedding day except, of course, I will get to see her once the ceremony starts.

I decided to ignore the grudge or the hard feelings that I have for Luciano so I welcomed him openly for my wedding.

"Luciano, it would mean a lot to me, if you stay over for our wedding. Let's keep aside all the negative feelings that we have for each other and shake hands in celebrating our happiness after all the truth says that we are family," I told him genuinely. Something shifted in his eyes as he grinned at me widely.

"Of course, anything for you Mr. Groom," He replied and I chuckled. After talking to him, I decided to head down to just see how things were going.

I was banned for a whole week to give orders. standing on top of the staircase I saw the whole castle getting furnished once again. So many people; decorators and servants were rushing here and there with massive pieces of decorative items in their hands. I saw Lukas in his serious posture giving orders like I used to do. I saw a mini version of myself in Lukas when he gets all serious.

I was told that the first important thing which was to be done was to make the castle look welcoming from the open door to the wide hallway. The walls were getting polished and repainted and the photographs and huge frames that were once placed there were also getting cleaned.

The initial walls were off white but now it seemed as if the walls were painted with a beige, crème color along with rust-colored curtains to make a nice duo and combination.

The marbled floors were temporarily changed to old fashioned parquet of woody floorings with a blend of deep homely browns. Lukas told me that the floor was getting changed because the marble flooring would be very slippery and of course, the guests and the bride would wear flats or heels which will make them conscious whilst walking so he wanted everyone to be comfortable.

That was very wise and intelligent of Lukas even I couldn't think of it.

Apart from the whole castle being furnished, the environment was so much lighter than the times when I used to order the decorators. Everyone was laughing and having the time due to Lukas's constant jokes but at the same time, they were working too. Like I said this wasn't the case when I was directing.

The whole castle was so hyped with the current wedding. Mother was busy with my third in command Damien, to make a list of guests and the food which would be served. Dorian was with Hernandez who was directing the decorators with the outer part of the castle, the huge garden where the ceremony would take place.

Genevieve couldn't be seen anywhere, I had told her to take Bellamy for a wedding dress shopping. Luciano, on the other hand, was not anywhere, I assumed he would have gone somewhere.

Every side knew about the wedding and gifts and bouquets of all sorts were sent to us by them. Bellamy's family was also coming, they would be here any time now. I couldn't wait to bind our blood together creating a seal for life.

Werewolf wedding is somewhat the same but a little different from the other human weddings. The bride walks down the aisle, both of them have to say their vows but only in werewolf wedding, little blood of both the groom and bride are collected and mixed in a bowl so that they are joined together for life.

When this happens, the female mate becomes the equal of her mate. She receives the same capabilities of the mate and hence both of them stand together; as one. I want to see Bellamy and me like one, equal

I decided to go to my office to see some pack matters because it was pointless to do anything here considering my siblings won't let me help them. Taking long strides, I opened my office room and sat on my chair. I opened the files of the western side and started examining the attacks.

There were pictures of dead wolves that the Alpha managed to give me. Looking at the pictures, I only felt my blood boil. The murder was gruesomely done. There were missing parts; missing internal parts to be more precise

The heart, liver, kidney and other vital organs were missing. Blood was spattered everywhere on the ground. But the body seemed drained out of the blood. Even I couldn't stand seeing this. I shut the files close having a bad feeling. After the wedding, my next important priority would be to find the bastard behind this.

Bellamy Rose

"Please, can we eat now? And later shop?" I asked Princess who was dragging me to the next shop. We were here for about three hours and all we were doing was walking and walking.

She was the expanded version of Sophia when coming towards shopping matters. She was 10x more. I groaned as we entered the shop.

I only skimmed through the dresses while Princess was slowly taking her time seeing every detail of the dress. I saw a nearby chair and decided to sit. As I was about to sit I heard Genevieve call my name.

"Bellamy, come here. Try this on," She said and I groaned. I just wanted a minute to sit. I pleaded her to give me a minute but instead, she showed me her eyes and like a gold kid, I went towards her.

"You've only got three days! Stop being lazy and go," She chuckled slightly pushing me in the changing room. I slowly and steadily changed my clothes.

I looked at myself in the mirror and instantly shook my head. First thing, the dress was very tight, I felt suffocated. Second, it showed too much skin. Vincent would most likely drape me in a blanket if he sees me wearing this for our wedding. Third, I just didn't like it.

Coming out of the changing room, I shook my head to Genevieve.

"You're right. This one sucks! Come on let's go to the other shop that I've wanting to go since we are here."

"You say this to every shop," I whined and got back in the changing room.

Coming out I pouted and we went outside. Princess Genevieve finally agreed to eat and I could feel my inner wolf howl excitedly at the mention of food. We entered a small cafe and I inhaled the familiar smell of cinnamon buns. I heard my stomach growling and fake coughed so that it gets covered.

After eating out food, I felt as my energy has been re-boosted in me. Excitedly, we entered the next shop. While we were at it, my attention was suddenly drawn to a dress that was hanged on the last rack. My feet were taking me to that dress, once I reached it my hands quickly grabbed the dress. The soft fabric felt amazing against my skin.

I took out the dress and gasped. It was beautiful and my heart was set on buying it. I quickly went to the changing room without telling Genevieve.

As soon as I wore the dress I was awed by the gorgeousness of it. The creamy sheets of the silk dress slipped onto my shoulders peppering my body. It was a strapless wedding gown with beautiful embroidery on the bodice.

Different sorts of pearls and rhinestones were sewn on the dress. The dress was body-fitting from the top but it heavily flowed from the bottom like waves. It also had a two-tier veil with a matching crystal piece. I loved it.

I decided to show the dress to Princess who was busy finding me the one when in reality I guess I wearing the one. Opening the changing room's door, I saw Genevieve's head popping from the rack that was hiding her.

I didn't call her instead I went towards her patted her back. She swirled around due to the sudden touch and when her eyes landed on me, she smiled. Her eyes lit up as she took in the dress.

"Oh, my Goddess. Where did you find this one?" She said as she couldn't take her eyes off from the dress.

"You like it?" I asked grinning widely at her.

"I love it! Come on, let's pay for it or else some old nagging grandmother would fight for it." I laughed openly as I saw the reaction of two older women which happened to be close to us.

I changed back into my original clothes and brought the wedding dress out. I clutched the dress tightly and made my way towards the counter where we had to pay. Paying the cashier the money, we exited the mall and realized that it had gotten dark. Time flew fast!

I can't wait to wear it at my wedding when I become Mrs. Bellamy Rose Dante.
