Nathaniel Aria gracefully started progressing towards the court well, which was the open floor space I was currently standing in. For some reason, my eyes remained on her; she was beyond beautiful, I was forced to admit. Her soft hazel eyes that had the touch of green scattered in her irises appeared too timid to stare at me. Julius had a grin on his face as he watched her. I narrowed my eyes at him, feeling a tightness in my chest over the way he admired her openly. It was no traditional wedding, and Aria Vale heel clicked floors of the court to meet me. It wasn't the slow walk of a bride, but a part of me suddenly wished it was an actual wedding, and she took her time. She was hasty, her heels announcing her arrival; she stops before me, a meter apart. “I was a bit late, wasn’t I?”
