Side Story Episode 5: Family and Emma come to Deleson
After the joint wedding, I did not have a honeymoon with Flora and Mulia as I promised with Cecilia.
Their reactions to this were noticeably different. Flora clearly looked regretful, but Mulia seemed relieved.
Well, I can understand the reason for feeling relieved to some extent.
Cecilia also seemed quite nervous at first.
What now… On the contrary, there are times when I beg them to do it first.
And Flora and Mulia’s rooms were newly created on either side of the room where Cecilia and I were staying. This was what Flora requested.
“Even though she is a concubine, she has become His Majesty’s wife, so I think she should stick close by!”
“I think so too…”
Even Mulia agreed with her opinion
In addition, thanks to Cecilia’s financial crisis, the room for them was quickly decorated.
“Thank you for keeping your promise.”
Cecilia whispered, hugging my neck. It was 10 days after the joint wedding.
Well, even the whispering voice is so lovely now.
“I don’t want to see my children fighting over the imperial throne in the future, if possible.”
“Hehe. As expected, you are deep inside.”
“Is it? “It’s just a simple wind.”
Cecilia is not like that, she whispered in my ear.
Whispering while being held like this… I’m asking you to do it.
‘I tried to endure it, but I couldn’t.’
I lay down with her on her bed, hugging her.
“Wow.”
“They won’t look at you just because you scream cute.”
Then he kissed her on the cheek and she smiled sweetly. I raised her upper body slightly and looked down at her.
Cecilia gently closed her eyes, and I kissed her.
So we had a hot night tonight as well.
* * *
Three weeks have already passed since I sent the letter to Nedville’s mansion. At a time when she was worried about whether she was coming properly because there had been no news, she received a report from the head of the imperial palace.
“Your majesty. It is said that a carriage carrying members of His Majesty’s family has just passed through the eastern gate.”
“Oh! “It’s finally here.”
When I immediately smiled, Cecilia also expressed her joy.
“I need to say hello properly at this point.”
Of course, Flora was equally happy.
“Oh my goodness! Now we can also send our greetings to His Majesty’s family?”
“I’m nervous for no reason…”
Mulia let out a sigh of relief as she placed her hand on her chest. It seemed as if she was trying to relax.
As I was looking at each of the girls’ different reactions, the corners of my mouth went up without me realizing it.
“Greg.”
I called the name of the butler standing in front of the desk.
“Get ready to welcome them right now. “We’ll be heading out the front door soon.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Immediately after the butler left, the three women jumped up from their seats as if they had made a promise.
“Honey. I think I need to get ready.”
“I need to change my dress too!”
“Me too.”
Something like a solemn determination flickered in their eyes. Is this something that needs to go that far? …
“I think all three of them are pretty…”
“At a time like this, you have to look even better! “Me and Mulia haven’t even been able to say hello to her since she got married.”
Flora spoke forcefully, and Mulia shook her head in agreement.
“I am the empress, and at the same time, I am your confidant, so I need to look perfect.”
After all three of them said that, I had nothing more to say. Well, I completely understand your desire to look good to your family.
“Okay. Then, I will be at the front gate first, so please come back in 20 minutes.”
“I will.”
“Yes!”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
I left her office with them. The women headed to their respective rooms, and I walked to the front door on the first floor.
As I left the front door, I could see the red carpet and the butlers lined up on both sides. And the imperial palace bands were also preparing.
‘Everyone is fast.’
When exactly 20 minutes had passed, the ladies arrived at the front gate.
“What do you think?”
Cecilia asked me first. It looks like she has a little brighter makeup on her face.
When I pointed it out, he laughed and loved it.
“Your majesty!” Please watch me too!”
Flora stood right in front of me and spread her arms wide. Not only did she change her dress, but she also changed her jewelry.
It was a bit surprising that she wore something calm rather than something flashy.
But whatever it was, it matched very well.
“Hmm. It looks very nice. “It’s pretty.”
“Hey. Thank you.”
Flora shook her head with joy. Her appearance was so cute that I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Hey, Your Majesty. Will I be okay?”
Mulia asked cautiously, twisting the hair below her ears with her hands. She wore a pretty hairpin in her dark blue hair, and her makeup was also done subdued.
“The hairpin suits you well. “It looks good.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
At that time, I saw a carriage approaching in front of me. I told my employees to take a stance.
After a while, the carriage stopped in front of the red carpet. The first person to get off the carriage was Hans. Next came his mother and younger sister Cyril, and finally Emma.
The military band started playing instruments, and the family looked around in confusion. At that time, my brother made eye contact with me.
I gestured for them to approach, and only then did the family slowly walk along the red carpet.
When they reached in front of me, the military band stopped playing.
“I meet His Majesty Luke Nedville, Emperor of the Eckhart Empire, and His Majesty Empress Cecilia.”
The family lowered their posture and showed respect to us. Emma also naturally greeted me politely, probably because she had received training earlier.
“I’m so glad everyone came. Everyone, don’t be too nervous. Because they are my family.”
“I am also very happy to be able to meet you like this.”
Cecilia and I welcomed each other with joy, and only then did the family relax.
“But what about your father?”
“He said he would remain in the territory.”
My mother treated me in the same tone as usual. For me, this was actually more comfortable.
No matter how much I try, I can’t even imagine the sight of being treated with respect by my mother…
“Hey… He has truly become an emperor.”
“What does that mean, bro?”
“It’s just pure admiration.”
As expected, my brother was always strange.
“Oppa, you’re so cool… It’s truly the pride of our family.”
Why does her younger sister Cyril say what her mother says?
But if he sees what Hans does, he might think something like that.
“Well, Your Majesty…”
Lastly, unlike usual, Emma addressed me very cautiously.
“Huh. Why?”
“Congratulations on your national wedding.”
At the same time, she gently curled her lips and smiled softly.
“Thank you, Emma.”
Cecilia, who was standing next to me, was the first to express her gratitude to her. Emma extended her congratulations to her again.
“Well, Mulia and I also had a joint wedding with Her Majesty.”
As expected, our Flora will never tolerate it.
She turned her head to her right just in case and saw Mulia blushing a little. The embarrassed reaction is also strangely cute…
And of course, the family and Emma expressed their shock in their own ways.
“Oh my god!”
“My brother… “You also brought in a concubine’s office?”
I stopped my mother from talking to Cyril and covered her mouth.
“…”
Emma turned into a wreck.
I don’t think anyone would know even if someone carried it.
Lastly, Hans showed the most annoying reaction.
“Hmm. After all, it is every man’s dream to have multiple wives. “I understand everything, little brother.”
“…”
I had a strong feeling for some reason, so I looked at the expressions of the women standing on either side… Cecilia and Mulia looked strangely disdainful.
“Ho Ho. I am one of the wives who made His Majesty’s dream his come true. Be happy.”
Meanwhile, Flora is sitting clapping her hands again… Well, she still looked bright as always, so I thought she was cute too.
‘At this point, am I also caught in the act?’
At that time, a coughing sound was heard right next to me. The source of the sound was none other than Cecilia.
“I have prepared a dinner for you. Now, I think it would be a good idea to go to a restaurant, enjoy it, and let go of all the worries I’ve had. “What do you think?”
Cecilia’s eyes fell on me. Of course, there was only one answer for me.
“Good idea, honey.”
* * *
We sat at the large table in the restaurant and enjoyed dinner.
My family and Emma were most curious about how I was able to hold a joint wedding after a state wedding, and I explained it in detail.
Cecilia, Flora, and Mulia looked embarrassed as they talked about the episodes leading up to their marriage.
Next, I gave my family a tour around the imperial palace. At that time, Flora coveted my side.
“Your majesty. “Can I fold my arms?”
“Of course.”
When I gave it to her without hesitation, Flora immediately crossed her arms and laughed.
“Honey. “It’s my turn next.”
“I would do it third time.”
Ladies who missed the opportunity immediately reserved their turn.
The family always smiled, as if they liked how we were doing. And Emma also looked happy.
When the facilities of the imperial palace were introduced, everyone reacted with amazement.
Lastly, the lady who held my arm as I headed to Huwon was Mulia.
After looking at the pond, pergola, and well-maintained flowers in the flower bed, it was already late afternoon.
“Mom. Now, I will guide you to the newly prepared mansion.”
“I’m looking forward to it!”
Then my brother, Cyril, and Emma also looked at us with eyes full of anticipation.
* * *
The mansion we purchased was only about 10 minutes away by carriage from the imperial palace.
Thanks to the interior design and staff arrangement in advance, the inside of the mansion had a very neat appearance.
For reference, this mansion was purchased with funds from the sale of a mansion previously purchased in the Kingdom of Sergel.
This was also a secret that no one knew except Cecilia.
“Once I got here, it was really nice.”
Flora, who followed me, looked around the mansion and was amazed.
Cecilia and Mulia also wanted to come, but due to a backlog of work, only Flora came.
‘I never thought I would decide who would follow me using rock, paper, scissors.’
You don’t know how much the defeated Cecilia and Mulia envied Flora. Maybe I’ll have to bring all my wives here again in the near future.
Anyway, I toured the entire mansion with Flora, Emma, and her family. After that, it was almost time for the sun to set.
“The day went by so quickly today.”
“That’s right. “I had fun.”
Flora answered with her cute eye smile. I stroked her head gently, and Flora hummed to see if she was feeling better.
When I looked back, I saw her family sighing.
Emma… She had a strangely envious look in her eyes.
“We’ll just go in, so make yourself comfortable here. If you need anything, please contact me anytime. “You can come to the imperial palace to have fun.”
“I had a great time meeting my mother-in-law, uncle, and sister-in-law. Of course, Emma too.”
Then she gave Flora her well-wishes and gave off a cheerful appearance.
“Okay then, we’ll just leave.”
I waved at them and then walked out the front door with Flora holding her hand. Just as I was about to put Flora in the carriage waiting in front and get on, I heard the sound of the door opening behind her.
When I turned around, Emma was standing there.
“Your Majesty.”
“Huh? “What’s wrong, Emma?”
“If… “Can you talk to me just for a moment?”
Emma was looking passionately at me with her hands clasped on her chest.
