CHAPTER THREE

" Charles, your touch makes me feel more beautiful than this dress".

His eyes locked into her's, his voice low and husky, " this dress merely reflect the beauty you've woven into my soul ".

Nita's gentle cough broke the spell.

council members await, Mahoraga signal ceremony start

Prince Charles offered his arms formally now, " shall we proceed......my... almost-officially-mine bride?"

She placed her hand on his arm, sparks flying between them.

They walked towards Twilight Glade's alter, where Mahoraga stood.

" Dearly beloved sorcerers and guests,.....we gather for Prince Charles and His Bride....."

He paused for dramatic effect, " WHAT IS HER NAME?"

Charles declared officially .

" Her name is Akira, my love, my magic "

The sorcery realm erupted in cheers and applause as Akira blushed deeply.

Mahoraga Smiled.

" By council recognition, Akira is henceforth bound to Prince Charles. Proceed with vows, seal your eternal magic bond".

Charles turned to face Akira, his eyes burning with devotion.

" Akira, my love, from realms colliding to hearts entwining, forever with you is where my magic and soul reside".

Akira's voice trembled softly as she replied.

" Charles, my sorcerer my heart, your love awakened my own magic, forever with you is my spellbound destiny".

Mahoraga nodded.

" seal vows with kiss, as council magic binds your union......NOW".

Their lips met in a passionate embrace, sorcery realm fireworks exploded around them.

Mahoraga declared,

" By magic law, Prince Charles and Akira are MARRIED!"

Unexpected darkness looms, as the wedding fireworks faded, eerie black tendrils crept over the Twilight Glade.

Mahoraga's eyes narrowed

" malicious magic, NOT of our realm.... Akira, your presence awakened this!"

Charles stepped forward, his palms glowing fiercely.

" my wife's power and mine will protect our realm, Akira joins hands now, combine our magic NOW"

Her hands intertwined with his, their union magic erupted in brilliant light.

But darkness adapted, coalescing into a figure.

" My name is Tania, Akira's true linage revealer... And the destroyer of prince Charles if he keeps her".

Akira, do you know this darkness, this claim?"

She leaned into his chest, her voice barely above whisper.

" Tania's name....... echoes a forgotten childhood whisper, ' Akira, Tania will come for you....' but I remembered nothing else until now".

Tania's eerie grin spread.

" Yes......Akira, beloved daughter of my sister Bethany, last survivor of clan Katsuragi, sworn enemies of Charles lineage".

Charles' eyes widened, "this revelation threatens our bond".

He held Akira closer.

" Akira, bloodlines mean nothing, my heart claims you, not ancestry ".

Tania sneered

" Foolish Charles, clan Katsuragi magic binds her to me"

" Akira, come willingly or watch your husband perish "

Charles' magic erupted wildly, Twilight Glade shook as he summoned.

" Tania, you will pass through my domain only as Ashes"

Tania crackled, unleashing clan Katsuragi dark magic.

Charles and Akira's powers collided, explosive blast illuminating the realm.

Akira stood frozen, then suddenly, her eyes turned midnight black, clan Katsuragi magic stirring within her.

Tania's grin widened,

" Akira, our bloodlines awakens, join me, sister, together...we will crush Charles".

Charles heart raced, fearing he would loose Akira to Ancient lineage magic.

" Akira, use their magic against Tania, prove your choice is me!"
