The two who vowed to God formally became couple, and the veil hanging on the face of Marietta was raised up by the hand of Bellwand. The beautiful face polished for this day is embarrassedly depressed. “Marietta … how beautiful …” I misunderstand Bergwant. She dyed her cheek, looked up at her beloved groom and smiled. “Very, it’s cute! My daughter-in-law is the most cute in the world! ” Staying with hugging and hugging cowardly, the face of Bellwend becomes tough as a warrior with a mission in front. A roar of rapists witnessed the loveness of the rumor fairy princess among the attendees. The deep blue eyes of Marietta glitter with the pleasure of being a couple who I love, and I look at Belle Vanto in love and gaze. Berwantt who saw the face of Marietta slightly pinked got on her side as it was and escaped, he got over the urge to push down somewhere. “God Mardigot is watching, do not be ashamed to behave” “… How about Bellevant?” In Belle vanto who had a horrible heinous face to suppress desire, people felt the sense of intimidation that the back muscles become zokuri. Marietta who whispers his little head while mystifying it to mystery. “It is a brilliant bride to say that you are not so afraid of the general as cute as that! ” “Truly, one who will be the wife of General Fergus, it is not a woman with the same degree of courage” People were admired by Marietta, but as a principal it is a love love filter, so any Berwent is simply a glamorous and lovely man. “You do not kiss the vow?” To Marietta whispering with a loud little voice, the reason of Bellwend flew in a moment. “Marietta, I love you!” Turning her arms around her waist, pulling her bride together, Meredigot God who was watching somewhere did not think “OH! I had a hot kiss that could hurt me. When the bride and the bridegroom leave, we got on to the wagon carriage waiting for us this time. Fortunately for Marietta, Sierra, who was accompanied by him, was also included, so it was avoided only to be eaten by Berwant, who is choked by the anxiety. I could not get you off the knee for some reason. Once the horse-drawn carriage returned to the royal palace, after a short break it took a carriage for the parade this time. It is lightweight because it does not have a roof and it is a two-pronged horse-drawn carriage with an elegant design polished brilliantly. Of course it is the Order ‘s Order that mounted a horse. They were dignified in a military uniform of solid design, they were very dignified, and the maids and maids of the royal palace watching the preparations of the parade gazed at their vigilance gracefully, so perhaps one bud of love buds one and two buds of love It might be. Eventually the horse-drawn went down the stone wall and headed for the city.
CLICK ME!
The ruffians who opened the door of the shabby cabin became doubtful of their own eyes.
Over there, the only remaining things are the dress that the princess was supposed to wear—being left behind on the floor, and the rope that was used to hold the prisoner captive was neatly remained.
"What the hell is going on… The person herself, where did that princess go?"
"In such a short time, too. Did someone creep in and released her?"
However, the cabin's door was locked, and there was no presence of anyone other than them inside.
The moment the men lifted the dress up and examined it, the small white kitten who quietly concealed herself near the door, managed to leave the cabin without the men noticing, and set her feet trottingly into the forest.
It was Marietta who transformed with the help of magic.
When she looked at the men who finally went out of the cabin and searched the surroundings, she gradually increased her speed and went further inside the forest.
Although it was suffice to say that the speed was only about the standard of an adult's semi-jogging speed.
(I have to run away, I have to run away!)
As she has taken the form of a cat, her intelligence was also influenced and downgraded along with her form, and as a result, Marietta gradually became unable to understand why has she become a cat and where she should go.
"Mi?"
She stopped to think about what she should be doing with her small head.
The only thing she can remember is that there was something really frightening, and about the person that she really wanted to see.
(I have to run away, and go to that person's place.)
I want to escape from the scary place, and I want to meet that person.
With those thoughts alone, the kitten advanced through the forest.
"…Mi? Mi?"
When she proceeded forward a bit, she became unable to understand of what was going on, again.
It was really scary.
While trembling, she began to think again about what she should do.
Then, with her teary eyes, the kitten went towards the forest with her shaky feet.
(Where are you? I want to quickly see you. It's scary here.)
"Marietta, where are you?! Marietta!"
Belvant who urged forward on his favorite horse, Mistral, in accordance to River Link's instructions, found the cabin inside the forest.
The shady men were showered with blows and were thrown down.
In truth, he wanted to immediately decapitate their heads, but since Adlan reminded him to not kill them as they still need to clarify the real motive behind those kidnappers and send them to the authorized people, he spared their lives.
Nevertheless, the ruffians who were struck and received the blows that the raged great devil, General Belvant Fargus gave with his whole seriousness, have reached the peak of their fear, as they have seen this world's hell, proceeded to confess everything that they know to Belvant as their whole bodies were burned with the sensation of pain from all the blows.
"Damn it!"
The angry Belvant who has lost his mind, pierced his sword to the ground with a staggering sound.
Accidentally, just by chance, the ruffians whose heads were close to the proximity screamed, "Hiii!" and just like that, soaked their underpants warm.
He has no doubt that around this time, Marietta is thinking that she is helpless and shivering.
Belvant glanced towards the useless men, and thinking that it was indeed more risky to just kill them like this, stared at the men who were lying down at his feet.
At his dreadful glance, the ruffians began to think that perhaps it would put them at ease if they were to die just like this. And at that time…
"Belvant-!"
Adlan and his other subordinates who mounted the horses, finally arrived.
He vigorously rushed his army horse towards Belvant, leaving the others behind.
"What about the princess?"
Adlan who nimbly went down of his horse took a glance and asked.
"Why don't you guess it yourself?!"
"Calm down. According to Link's instructions, she should be hiding herself in the forest, right? It's the situation that we can expect."
"With Link's magic, Marietta turned into just a normal kitten! A delicate kitten, if some animals in the forest attacked her…"
Belvant scratched his hair, imagining the dreadful situation.
~~~~~
The two who have exchanged vows in front of the god are now officially husband and wife, and the veil that was straddling on Marietta's head was raised by Belvant's hand.
The beautiful face that was polished up just for this day's sake was now looking down in her embarrassment.
"Marietta… how beautiful…"
Belvant reflexively murmured.
She blushed as she raised her eyes up to look at her most beloved bridegroom, and smiled.
[Gwaa, c, cute! My bride is the most beautiful one in this world!]
Enduring himself with just hugging her tightly and rubbing their cheeks together, Belvant's face turned into his strict expression befitting of a warrior who's about to face his mission.
An uproar rose from amidst the attending people, as they just witnessed the rumored sprite-like princess' loveliness right in front of their eyes.
Marietta's deep blue pupils are sparkling due to her happiness for becoming husband and wife with the person she loves, and they are gazing at Belvant, full of love.
Belvant, who saw Marietta's face dyed in a faint pink, tried to endure his urge to escape while carrying her under his arms, then pushing her down somewhere else.
[God Madigard is watching, so you shouldn't conduct yourself in a shameful manner.]
"…Sir Belvant?"
Since Belvant's face distorted into an extreme fiendish one in order to suppress his desire, the people sensed an intimidating atmosphere that sent chills down their spines.
Towards that kind of Belvant, Marietta slightly tilted her head and murmured out of her curiosity.
[She is very adorable, yet at the same time she's also fearless towards the General, what a bold bride she truly is!]
[As expected of the person who's to become General Fargus' wife, she is not just your ordinary woman with average level of bravery.]
The people are admiring Marietta, but the person herself has her 'lovey-dovey filter', so she simply views any kind of Belvant as her gallant and dreamy man.
"You won't give me the wedding kiss1?"
Due to Marietta's sweet whisper, for an instant, Belvant's reasoning flew out of his mind.
"Marietta, I love you!"
As he pulled his bride's waist firmly with his arm towards himself, the God Madigard who was watching the whole scene from somewhere else reflexively grinned, "OH!2" as the two shared their passionate kiss.
After the bride and the bridegroom exited the venue, they rode the carriage specifically used for the occasion of their marriage that was waiting for them outside.
Fortunately for Marietta, her assistant, Sierra also rode the carriage along with them, and she managed to avoid being devoured greedily by Belvant who was feeling dizzy due to his worldly desires.
For some reason, she couldn't let him off her hook. 3
Once the carriage returned to the royal palace, after taking a short recess, this time, they went to ride on the carriage prepared for the purpose of parade.
It is a two-horse cart that doesn't have any roof in order to make it light weight, and was particularly designed to further elaborate its elegance, polished up until it's glossy.
The ones in charge of front and rear guard were none other than the Oltaire's chivalric order who mounted on their horses.
Adorned in the tight-designed military uniforms, they look extremely gallant. When the maids and the lady attendants at the royal palace who were watching attentively towards the parade's preparations looked at those gallant figures, perhaps a few seeds of love have started to bud inside their hearts.
Finally, the carriage descended from the royal palace and headed for the town.
As the parade advanced through the spatious road which was also used for the usual triumphal route, there were already people awaiting them along the way.
Each and every one of them has a slick face brimming with vigour, as they have received the blessing from God Madigard.
"General Fargus, congratulations!"
"Princess Marietta, kyaaaaa, so pretty! So cute-!"
Belvant who was already used to triumphal parade just nodded and waved his hand towards the people, complete with his usual intense expression and smile.
Marietta who experienced such a parade held at the large street and being in front of so many people for the first time, at first she was bewildered, but when she stealthily nestled her body closer to the calm Belvant, she felt relieved.
Each time the people along the route called out to her, Marietta would look their way and smile cheerfully. The citizens of Oltaire whose greetings were answered by the beautiful sprite-like princess' waving hands, found themselves in a middle of a daze.
The old people heard a lot of rumors going about the marriage and were worried for General Fargus just as they would for their own grandchildren. However, upon meeting the bride who was more than what they expected, they were deeply moved and shed tears of joy.
"Oh my, for everyone to be this overjoyed. Thank you, people of Oltaire."
Since the old people have regained their vigour back due to God Madigard's blessings, they were able to go outside to greet Marietta. Towards Marietta's smile and waved hands, they assumed the posture of praying4.
After taking a turn around the city, the parade's line returned to the royal palace.
Next to follow was the wedding reception.
Marietta parted ways with Belvant and were escorted by Sierra to return to the room.
It is so she can change her clothes.
Taking off her heavy ceremonial dress, this time she's changed into a light dress with light blue color and a pale chiffon on top of the light blue base.
After letting down her hair, it was styled in a half-upswept hairstyle which made her fluffy curled hair stand out.
As for the ornament, it would certainly be the diamond of Oltaire.
In addition, there are also small tiara, necklace, and earrings which were elegantly designed using plenty of small diamonds. All the accessories reflected the glittering light around Marietta's face.
"Princess Marietta, you look very beautiful. As if you just came straight out of a romance novel."
(T/N: Well, she is indeed the main heroine in a romance novel, yup, yup.)
"My, thank you, Sierra. I wonder if it would be alright for me to stand beside Sir Belvant with this? I mean, that person is extremely dreamy, so…"
"Yeah, it's perfect, perfect, the princess is magnificent no matter through what angle you're seeing her. I even believe that the general would fall in love again once he sees the princess' beauty. Or rather, I believe it would be better if we were to blindfold the general in order to restrain him from doing anything reckless."
"Uh, really, Sierra."
Marietta who didn't realize that she would always shake Belvant's reasoning herself, only laughed in amusement over Sierra's words.
And so, the wedding reception was a great success as it splendidly turned out to be an enjoyable banquet surrounding the bride and the groom. Despite that, the time has eventually come for the banquet to end.
It's time for everyone to exit.
Then, it's time for them to prepare for their first night.
The guests tried to just let their gazes pass through the bride as naturally as possible during the banquet, but in the end, their gazes couldn't leave the adorable Marietta.
Belvant who's lost his patience, regained her spirit and pushed his way through the swarming guests all around Marietta, then suddenly hugged her with one of his arms.
It's a pose that the royal palace's people are familiar with.
"Marietta, let's go."
"Yes!"
As the innocent bride reached and hugged Belvant's neck, the laughs and voices from their surroundings that said, "Oh my, oh my," could be heard.
"Well then, please excuse us."
After bowing down to the guests, the sturdy bridegroom held the bride in his arms and exited the venue.
Now then, be zealous to your heart's content.
Author's Pre-chapter Comment :
The ruffians who opened the door of the shabby cabin became doubtful of their own eyes.

"Calm down. According to Link's instructions, she should be hiding herself in the forest, right? It's the situation that we can expect."
"With Link's magic, Marietta turned into just a normal kitten! A delicate kitten, if some animals in the forest attacked her…"
Belvant scratched his hair, imagining the dreadful situation.
"Where should we search for her, then?! Can't we find her using magic?"
"It seems that Link's power is bound just until here."
"Oi, haven't you seen a cat? It's a small white kitten! Answer!"
Belvant seized the head of the man lying on the ground, trembling due to his fear, with just one of his hand.
Even if the bloodstained man's head was shaken until bubbles could be seen from his mouth, he didn't know the whereabouts of the kitten.
Marietta concealed even her footsteps, and managed to skillfully run away.
"Don't kill! Don't kill him, Belvant!"
Adlan tried to hold Belvant back, and he finally separated his hand from the man's head.
The ruffian's head, who has lost his consciousness, fell on the ground.
"…that's right, Mistral!"
Belvant entered the cabin and picked up Marietta's dress, then he went outside and thrusted it towards the snout of the army horse.
"Remember this smell. Bring me to where the owner of this smell is, okay?"
"That's absurd."
Adlan reflexively spouted his comment, but Belvant, who was cornered, seriously said that.
"If it's you, then you can do it! Understand, Mistral?"
The general's horse cried out to answer, and Belvant leaped on the saddle. Then, the two of them entered the forest.
"You are totally serious?! Like master, like horse. Please somehow find the princess. The others should also split into groups and begin searching! It's a small white kitten!"
Adlan who followed Belvant's back until it was out of his sight, issued the instructions to the subordinates.
(For heaven's sake, please stay safe, princess. If not, the general would go mad that he would ruin this country's outskirts.)
A person with power, should he use his power in the wrong direction, would become a living murder weapon.
Adlan was pretending to be calm, but deep inside, he was earnestly worried over the war that might happen.
"…Mi?"
The kitten who earnestly advanced forward in the underbrush, sensed an unpleasant presence and stopped.
Something was targetting her.
She instinctively jumped at the nearby tree and began to claw her way up. Simultaneously, sharp claws were digged into the spot where the kitten was at.
The kitten didn't turn back, she just continued her way up.
After she managed to climb up until the nearby slender twig that was around 3 meters high, for the first time she looked down, and noticed that she just barely managed to escape a dangerous situation.
Over there, a lone wolf was staring back at the prey, as it turned round and round and growled.
"Mi…"
The kitten was overwhelmed with fear, and she digged her claws into the twig.
It seems that the wolf is planning to make the small prey as his dessert.
However, since climbing the tree was originally not its forte, it only walked round and round the tree's surroundings while thinking on how it could get its claws on the kitten.
"Mi!"
There was no more twig that she could climb up to, so the kitten raised her voice in fear.
Eventually, the wolf who's determined to get her, made use of its jumping power and jumped while targetting the tree's twig.
It attacked the twig with its front legs, and then it violently shook the twig.
The kitten was frantically clinging on the twig.
"Mi, mi!"
(Scary, so scary!)
The twig would surely fall down by the next attack.
If the wolf were a human, it would be grinning by now.
Without giving any sign of leeway, the wolf sprung up once again.
The wolf's front legs strongly stroke the twig, breaking the root of the twig that the kitten was holding on to.
The kitten was thrown down to the ground along with the twig.
But fortunately enough, the heavy twig fell down first, and the light-weighted kitten didn't seem to get hurt at all.
"Mi."
The kitten who fell down to the ground removed her claws from the twig and tried to escape, but before that, the ruthless wolf stood in her way.
The wolf opened its mouth to the extent that it was as if its ears were burst open, showing off his sharp fangs, and drool drooped from its mouth.
"…Mi?"
(Is it over for me?)
The kitten who felt that everything was over, closed her blue eyes, and tears dropped from them.
(I wanted to return. I wanted to go back to your place, but…)
Inside the form of a kitten, Marietta thought of her beloved person.
"Where should we search for her, then?! Can't we find her using magic?"
"It seems that Link's power is bound just until here."
"Oi, haven't you seen a cat? It's a small white kitten! Answer!"
Belvant seized the head of the man lying on the ground, trembling due to his fear, with just one of his hand.
Even if the bloodstained man's head was shaken until bubbles could be seen from his mouth, he didn't know the whereabouts of the kitten.

"…Mi?"
(Is it over for me?)
The kitten who felt that everything was over, closed her blue eyes, and tears dropped from them.
(I wanted to return. I wanted to go back to your place, but…)
Inside the form of a kitten, Marietta thought of her beloved person.
Near their place, a cold aura could be felt.
"Don't touch that kitten."
The small animals near the vicinity simultaneously ran away.
The trees that shouldn't be able to move, were shaking although it was not windy, trying to get away from the dreadful existence.
"That's my kitten. Understand that, you mongrel?"
The wolf couldn't understand the human language.
It only sensed the tremendous dismay in that tone of voice, and folded its tail between its thighs.
The terrifying existence mounting a huge horse went down to the ground easily at such a height.
I will be killed, I will be killed, I will be killed…
"Kyu, kyuuun…"
The wolf cried out a miserable voice that it never did ever since it was born, and threw itself down on the ground, showing its belly.
At least, if you want to kill me, finish it off quickly!
That stomach was then nudged by the tip of his leather boots.
"Hey, dog, go elsewhere. You're a nuisance."
The wolf who was rolled over upside down stopped its miserable cry.
G, gotta escape!
As he turned aside adroitly, the wolf quickly ran at full speed towards the deep ends of the forest.
It still couldn't believe that its life was spared.
The kitten who closed her eyes tightly was rolling into a small ball and her body trembled.
She somewhat understood that an unknown dreadful existence was nearby, but she didn't have any way to defense herself.
The one that may want to eat her isn't only the wolf, right now.
(T/N: Oh yeah, you got that right, girl. That dreadful existence also wants to eat you, but… in another way ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)).
*nudge, nudge*
Something was nudging the kitten who was like a round furball.
"Are you okay?"
The cold atmosphere that was being let out by the dreadful existence until just now disappeared. The kitten noticed that she was being raised, and she gently turned up her face.
"Marietta?"
A huge human was there, and she was riding on top of his big palm.
"Are you hurt? Are you alright?"
"Mi?"
Because that person spoke with such a gentle voice, the kitten's fear was a little bit relieved.
"Do you recognize me? Sorry to scare you, but everything's alright now. Let's go home together."
The man removed a few of his coat's buttons, and took the kitten inside.
It was warm and comfortable inside, so the kitten only let her head out from there.
When she showed her head, a big hand brushed her head gently.
"You did well, Mary."
"Mi?"
Did I do something praiseworthy?
She didn't really understand, but since the hand that brushed her gently felt good, she closed her eyes.
Then, since she was very exhausted, the kitten fell asleep.
"Belvant!"
Adlan who was tying the ruffians to the horse in front of the cabin, saw Belvant's figure and raised his voice.
"As expected from my horse, it managed to find Marietta."
"Mistral did? Did he detect her smell? Awesome… And of course, the princess is safe, right?"
"Yeah, as you can see."
"…"
(A brooch made of a kitten's severed head? It's scary, and it really doesn't suit him.)
Upon seeing the face of the adorable white kitten in Belvant's chest, Adlan felt relieved, but at the same time, he was thinking about that.
"That is weird…"
Belvant and Marietta (in her cat form, Mary) returned safely to the castle and met the head of magician, who said that while lightly poking the severed head brooch—or not, the head of the adorable kitten who peeked through Belvant's chest.
"She shouldn't have stayed in her kitten form for such a long time."
"What?"
"Like I said, she should have already turned back into her human form for a long time ago. Please take her out and let me examine her a bit."
"No, wait, it will be troublesome if she were to turn back into a human here."
He cannot afford to have the bare body of his fiancee being exposed.
That is how they moved into Belvant's room which is located inside the castle. Belvant then tucked her body in a sheet, and said, "Yosh!"
"Wait, can you please stop ordering me around like a dog?"
Though he was complaining, River Link snapped his fingers and chanted an incantation towards the kitten.
"Mi?"
"Oh my?"
The kitten didn't return to being a human.
"What's wrong?"
Belvant rolled up the sheets and asked River Link in a low voice.
"Why won't she turn back? Ah…"
The kitten jumped off the bed, and climbed Belvant's leg up with her claws without any reservation, and once again crawled into his chest and let out only her head.
"Mi."
The severed head brooch is now ready.
Belvant and Marietta, along with Sierra rode in the carriage and headed to Belvant's residence.
From now on, Marietta will be living in his residence as the landlady.
The maids who have been working for Marietta at the royal palace were dispatched from Stellaus, and after the bridal procession, they would be working exclusively for Marietta in Belvant's residence. Since they have arrived slightly early, they are now waiting for Marietta and the others to arrive at Fargus' house.
"Thank you for your hard work. Well then, General Fargus, see you later."
"…Just a little bit longer."
"Women have a lot of dress-up to do, so, see, you, lter!"
Sierra quickly declared to Belvant, who seemed reluctant to be apart from Marietta.
The servants of the Fargus' house whispered to one another, "As expected from the maid who's accompanying the princess, her appeal is different from the others!" as they witnessed the state of the husband who's withdrawing with sorrowful eyes.
"Oh dear, what a lovely room it is!"
Marietta raised her voice of joy as she put her hands together in front of her bosom upon seeing the lovely interoir integrated with a romantic ambience.
The furniture's design is based on the trending curvy and soft types, and the cushion and linen's style is frilled and laced style, adding a bit to the sweet ambience.
"The door at the inner part of this room is connected to the Lord's room. Madam's private room was adorned in girly interior according to the Lord's instruction, how do you like it?"
"Yes, of course! I wonder why would Sir Belvant know that I like things this way. As expected from my husband!"
Of course, Sierra was the one who threw all detailed information about Marietta's preference to Belvant.
She wrote a 'Marietta Report', and Belvant tried to memorize its content with more seriousness than any other work.
As Adlan witnessed Belvant's figure as he grumbled the content in the office, Adlan shrieked, "Stop it-, even I want to memorize Sierra's preference, too!"
After some time looking around the room where she will be living in from now on, Marietta took off her dress and took a bath.
Since she would be doing her first night after this, the maids washed her body and hair neatly, rubbed her entire body with a fragant flower-scented perfumed oil, and massaged her.
Marietta's smooth white skin was fully lustrous, and there isn't a single hint of her being worn out due to the ceremony.
The clothes put on her is a thin night-clothes.
Although the clothes is abundant of frills and laces, there is also a moderate amount of exposure in order to display Marietta's charm that can excite a male's instinct. For the newly-wed's convenience, there is also a ribbon on the bosom part of the clothes, designed so that when it's pulled, oh my, what a wonder, the clothes would get taken off in the blink of an eye.
With the maids and Sierra's hands, Marietta has been fully cooked that she looked tasty… that's not it, Marietta who's all prepared, laid her hands on the knob of the door connecting to her husband's room with her heart beating fast.
"Then, Sierra, I'm off!"
"It's alright, Princess. Just leave it all to General Fargus. In addition, I consider General Fargus would remain unperturbed even if you were to hit, scratch, or bite him, so it's perfectly fine for you to do anything you want."
"…Bite him?"
"If you feel like it."
"I'm not going to have a quarrel, you know?"
As she tilted her head in confusion, Marietta opened the door.
Belvant who had taken off his formal marriage outfit and taken a bath, is now waiting impatiently for when Marietta would come.
Thinking that he would just scare Marietta if she were to see his impatient condition, he drank a lot of sake cups and basked himself in cold water in order to calm himself down. Despite all that, his muscles would regain their passion in no time, as his body was feeling hot.
As his hand reached out to more sake in order to distract his mind, he halted while thinking, 'No, no, there is no way I could risk myself by unfastening my reasoning limit.'
At last, when he just began loitering around the bedroom just like a bear, the sound of the door opening could be heard as the door was opened from the next room.
"…Sir Belvant?"
In front of his excessively adorable new wife who left the bedroom hurriedly with her good smell, Belvant stood up there with reddening cheeks.
"Marietta!"
He quickly approached her, then locked her in his arms.
"Yosh!"
Without knowing, he let out his enthusiastic voice and carried her under his arms, took her to the bedroom and laid Marietta down on the spacious bed.
"Uhm, Sir Belvant."
"Yes?"
Realizing that Belvant's gazing at her with a more passionate gaze compared to the usual one, Marietta wriggled as she was overwhelmed by her own feelings.
"I just thought that I'd like to greet you."
"Is it necessary?"
Belvant tried to pay no heed to Marietta, but then he recalled the Marietta Report.
[Princess Marietta loves romantic ambience the most. Please, by no means, never rush on your desire to attack her.]
No, no, you have to avoid doing things that Marietta hates.
He reconsidered and sat on the bed.
Marietta also got up, sitting next to him, and gazed up at Belvant's face.
"Dear husband, by all means, be affectionate with me for many years to come, please."
"Ah, yes."
She is just too cute!
She looks even cuter like this!
Belvant held down his nose and bent his reddening face.
[My bride is way too cute, it's tough!]
Unaware of Belvant's thoughts, Marietta clung to his arms.
Feeling the round tenderness that he nurtured, Belvant's heart beat even faster.
"Sir Belvant, I'm so happy."
"I'm also happy. Marietta, I love you. I vow that I will continue to love you for all eternity."
"So happy…"
Belvant gently kissed the world's most adorable wife whose eyes were wet due to her being deeply moved.
