Wedding Of The Century - Chapter Ninety Eight

Finally, after what seemed like forever, James had his family reunited as one again.

Arthur stood with Willow in his arms. "Did you know it's been a few months since I got you back," he told her? "Yes, time flies, and my father wasn't in a rush for the wedding anyway," she replied.

"Yes, and that's why I have been waiting for the perfect time for this," he told her as he bent down on his knee, pulling something from his back pocket. Willow stood there in curiosity at what Arthur was up to and soon found out when he turned back around.

As he turned, he held out a little box that held a beautiful gold ring with a diamond centered in the middle. "Willow, the love of my life, will you marry me," he asked.

Willow stood there with a shocked expression on her face. "I thought you already asked me. I thought we were betrothed already," she giggled. "Yes, we are, but I wanted to make it official and for you to have a token of my love and everlasting promise," he added. "Yes, of course, I'll marry you," she told him as she held out her hand for him to slide the delicate ring on.

"You are too good to me," Willow told Arthur as he pulled her into his arms, hugging her tight.

"You are my world, Willow," he replied. "Just think we will be married soon. You and me forever," he told her.

Only a few more weeks went by, and Arthur found himself at the front of a church with nerves shooting through him. He felt excited but scared all at the same time. "Relax," whispered James.

The music began, everyone was to their feet staring at the back of the church. The doors opened, and Willow and her father entered. Willow was in a beautiful silk dress with flowers pinned in her hair.

As she walked down the aisle, many were stunned by her beauty.

After Willow's father gave her away, she stood facing Arthur in front of everyone. The Priest began the ceremony.

As the ceremony began, Willow choked back her tears as she looked at Arthur standing beside her at the altar.  

"I will love you, be your loving wife till death do we part," she told Arthur.

"I will love, protect, and cherish every day that you want me as your husband," he told Willow.

"With this ring, I will take you as my wife. This will symbolize our union," Arthur told her as he took out a gold ring, sliding it on her finger.

Everyone watched as they exchanged vows and rings.

Willow then took out a gold ring, sliding it on Arthur's finger as she repeated what the priest told her. "With this ring, I will take you as my husband. This will symbolize our union.

After they exchanged vows and rings, the Priest blessed their union as husband and wife.

"You may kiss the bride," the priest told them.

Arthur pulled Willow into his arms and kissed her with a sweet kiss.

Then as the Priest pronounced them as husband and wife, Arthur spun Willow around to pose for everyone. Everyone broke out in cheers and began to toss rice into the air.

Willow was then swept off her feet by Arthur as he carried her out of the church with everyone following behind them.

Outside, which was now dark, Arthur waited for Willow to join him to head to the party.

Scooping her up in his arms, he hugged her tight as he helped her into the carriage.

At the wedding party, they had a special area set up outside so everyone could dance and enjoy the beautiful night. Everyone joined Willow and Arthur on the dance floor as the musicians played music.

Even little Jamie was having fun goofing off on the floor as the adults danced around him.

Kristen slipped away from the party unnoticed. She found one of her special guards while everyone was still celebrating at the wedding ceremony. "I need you to act fast, while no one is paying attention. The young girl and boy that are cursed, I need you to kill them, and then we can place their bodies to make it look like an accident," she explained to him.

"That will be no problem at all, my queen. I will take them down to the dungeon until everyone is asleep, and then I can arrange for their bodies to be moved. I don't like killing little kids, but I will do what you wish," he replied.
