Betrothed Marriage Novels & Stories

My eyes blurred with hot tears as I forced myself to read the binding legal text out loud to the entire shocked congregation: "Let it be known across the territories that a marriage betrothal is hereby sealed between Crown Prince Ethan Voss of the Kingdom of Crystalvale, and Princess Isolde Blackwood of the Kingdom of Drakonvale.

The alpha shrugged, "and I don't know if it came out while you were sitting by the fire on your little quest, but Dante wasn't just any pack member.."

My breath skipped and every other word that came out from his mouth I only heard from a distance. I couldn't hear more. Didn't want to. I replayed his words in my head, 'Betrothed you and Dei.'

THE WORD marriage was a big word for me. If ever you’ll enter into the sacrament of marriage, you must be ready for the lifetime commitment because marriage wasn’t just a stage of life where you wanted to marry someone at first then if you get tired, you’ll leave him or her.

Being married to someone was the starting point where you will be building a family with your partner.
