Novel & Cerita Ceremony Book

THE CEREMONY While getting ready, I couldn’t shake the unease settling deep in my chest. Today felt… heavy,Like the air itself was warning me. I stared at my reflection for a long moment before reaching for the book Granny had given me. After a brief hesitation, I slid it carefully into the inner folds of my gown, hidden from sight just in case. I had learned the hard way that instincts were never to be ignored. A soft knock sounded on the door.

The clearing pulsed with light and sound, every beat of the ceremonial drums rippling through the crowd like a second heartbeat. Seren adjusted the gown’s suffocating neckline, wishing she could crawl under one of the bonfires and disappear. The System’s timer glowed in the corner of her vision, ticking away with the smug inevitability of a bomb. [Quest Timer: 01:42:12 until Ceremony.] “Oh, thanks,” she whispered under her breath. “Because I was totally going to forget the countdown to my public humiliation.”

Clio said and Erica nodded with an impressed look on her face. “That sounds so magical, So, Dominic is the king of Heaven?” she asked and Jenny nodded, “Yes, we learned about all of this in last ten years since we are here. The ‘Book of Kingdoms’ contain it all,” she said and raised two fingers at the shelf, “Give me the ‘Book of Kingdoms’” she said in commanding manner, the books moved and a book in black color moved out of a shelf and floated in front of them, the book floated to the table and was placed on it elegantly. Erica whistled lowly, “Will I be able to do that?” she asked as she touched the book, the velvet covering it was so soft and silky. She had never touched a more expensive

"Read the page I told you first. You've stepped into a new phase of your life." "Okay," It felt awkward. I shut the book looking surprised. Half-Ceremony actually means engagement. King Dastien was betrothed to Princess Emersyn when he got his full powers at the age of fourteen. His parents got betrothed when they were ten. These kinda ceremonies are performed only in Royal families. Wao! They didn't do it in a simple way but the day of the half-Ceremony was celebrated like a festival by their people. I'm wondering. He hasn't invited anyone to our ceremony. I don't want them to take offense of it.

He explained. Dominic and Athena shared a look before nodding at the elder. The older one nodded back at him before he looked at one of the elders who was holding an ancient book in his hands. It made Athena curious to know what it was but she kept it within her. "Please be prepared with the book, we are going to start the ceremony as soon as I am done putting her wolf into sleep." The older one said and others nodded at him. "Luna Lady, are you ready?" The elder asked one last time and she nodded at him with determination before closing her eyes.

Thick, respectful. Then Xavier stepped forward and placed a single white ember lily beside the pendant. It opened on contact with the Flame. The ceremony was complete. Outside the Hall—Quiet Steps As they emerged into the cool hallway, Maera asked, "Will you tell the court?" Ceres didn't hesitate. "No. Let this be between the fire and the few who understand what it means to end something with mercy." Xavier added, "Let them write songs for victors. But let us remember the ones who chose surrender, when power would have been easier."

He started the ceremony as he read from an old book, Venus, in the Wolf King’s library. All the previous kings signed on the back of it. They were lucky it still existed after everything the old Wolf King did. All they could figure out was that he probably didn’t find it. His signature was the last in the book. It wasn’t a very religious ceremony, but there were things the councillor had to do before Gabriella and Lucienne could get to the part where they did the oath.

he declared. I frowned in confusion. "What ceremony?" I asked. "Don't tell me you forgot.You forgot didn't you?"he cried. I grimaced. "I’m so sorry Manuel.I've just been thinking about a lot of things and I didnt... please could you remind me what ceremony is today?"I pleaded. "Well today is our crowning ceremony, where we would be crowned Alpha and Luna"he informed me. I gasped as a book fell off the desk in my hastened step to get out of the library.

That is…until he’d mentioned the ceremony. “The sermon better not be that long and there better be booze,” he said, his earlier smile giving way to the beginnings of a scowl – I should have taken that as a warning sign but I’d been lulled into a false sense of security. According to mating tradition, the oldest person in the pack - traditionally gave a sort of sermon during the ceremony. In this case, the oldest person in my father’s pack was my great aunt, Cerise, and the woman tended to go on and on. In other words, it was not going to be short.

Chapter Seventeen The day of the mating announcement came quite too fast for Kesley, she woke up with dread for how the announcement ceremony would go. She had just had lunch which Alpha Dennis prepared like he said and was now sitting alone in the living room with a book she found in one of the rooms in her hand. Kesley stared at the book in her hands but not a single word of it made sense. In fact, the letters seemed so jumbled and blurred that she just had to close it and focus on the dread she'd been trying to push back on her mind.
