CHAPTER TWO

The council members stumbled back, shock by his defiance.

The leader Magoraga, growled , " Prince Charles, you'd risk sorcery war for this non-magical outsider.

He stepped forward, eyes blazing, " SHE'S NOT AN OUTSIDER, SHE'S MY EQUAL, MY MAGIC, MY MISSING PIECE".

Akira's hand slipped in His, Magoraga's eyes widened, " impossible,.......her hands, it glows with sorcery now..."

" Magic doesn't explain what she mean to me". Magoraga's expression softened, unexpected.

He bowed his head slightly, " Prince Charles, strongest sorcerer alive........ your heart explains enough". The council members nodded in agreement.

Their union was approved by an unexpected acquiescence.

She leaned into him, whispering " they accepted us because they saw how much you love me..."

His arms wrapped tightly around her, " it's visible to all, my heart belongs to you alone".

Akira gave a slight smile at his words.

Mahoraga cleared his throat, " one last formality, seal your union officially........in a sorcery realm wedding..... today "

Today? Prince Charles heart skip a beat, " will you truly be my sorcerer bride today...Akira?

Her eyes sparkle like diamonds as she nodded enthusiastically. " yes, I will marry you today, Prince Charles, my love, my magic!"

Mahoraga smiled, " ceremony will be held at Twilight Glade, one hour, hence Prince Charles, you must present your bride in traditional sorcerer attire!"

The Prince's eyes were locked into Akira's, " you will wear the kokoro heart weaver dress made for my bride alone".

A soft voice behind them said, " I have prepared it, Prince Charles' description of your beauty inspired design!"

Her name was Nita, the Prince's trusted friend and seamstress.

The Prince heart swells with emotions.

" You will surpass the dress's beauty, my heart already worn by you".

Akira's cheeks flushed softly as she leaned into his whisper.

" Prince.... no more Prince Charles, just call me my love ..

Akira blushed with joy and continue with her sentence, " My love, your words weave stronger magic than any spell".

Nita smiled knowingly, " I'll leave you both, the dress is in your chamber my Prince".

" One hour until the ceremony, make this moment count".. Nita disappeared into thin air, leaving the lovers alone.

The Prince gently brushed his lips against her forehead. " it's time for me to give you something before you become my wife".

Producing a small, exquisite box from his pocket.

" A family heirloom, Charles bride wear this... Will you accept, this symbolizes my vow, forever bond to you before our ceremony ".

Tears of joy sparkled in Akira's eyes as she nodded eagerly, "forever bond to you, my love, my heart already sealed this vow!"

He opened the box, revealing the silver necklace with tiny sorcerer crystal and gently fastened it around her neck, their lips meeting softly.

The crystal glowed softly, council magic acknowledging their pre ceremonial vow.

Suddenly, Nita's voice whispered in the Prince earpiece, " one hour elapsed, guest await at Twilight Glade ..... And anyway, your bride look breathlessly beautiful in kokoro dress shimmering like moonlight. His breath catches.

Nita outdid herself, " you're stunning!"

Akira blushed deeply as the Prince fingers traced the intricate Kokoro embroidery.
