The Duke in the Spire of Thorns

Celeste waited outside.But Escrit didn't make him wait for long, and he appeared in front of Celeste dressed up in less than half an hour.

The dress is pure white, and the wide puffed skirt is filled with fine lace and various decorations, like a white Christmas tree, which is full of this year's Christmas gifts.

This dress is a sight to behold, and if the wearer can't keep it under control, the hapless wearer will look ridiculous.However, apparently Escrit is not the case.He didn't know what to modify his facial features, making him look like a real peerless beauty.It easily overshadowed the limelight of this overly ostentatious skirt.

Although he is tall, he has a well-proportioned figure, a slender waist, and his facial features fit his figure very well. He is gorgeous and noble, and a bit domineering, but there is no doubt that he is good-looking.

Celeste's wish was fulfilled, but he didn't even dare to walk over now, after a few stuttering compliments, he had nothing to say.

His cheeks were flushed, and even his earlobe seemed to be bleeding.On the other hand, Escrit, who was actually wearing a skirt and was about to become a bride, was calm and calm, with a decent smile on his face, without any embarrassment at all.

"Come to me, dear."

Escrit lowered his voice, sounding hoarse and sexy, Celeste couldn't resist, and walked towards his "fiancée" unsteadily.

They wasted one night's study time, but Celeste didn't feel sorry.

Soon, the wedding date arrived, and after going through a bunch of tedious and necessary links, Celeste finally met his fiancée in the church.

Oh, it should be the wife-to-be now.

In everyone's eyes, the groom was much more nervous than the bride, but the bride was calm and calm, and every link was perfect.

The bride and groom stood in front of the church. Although the bride was much taller than the groom, they still showed a strange sense of fit. The wedding ceremony was completed perfectly without any mistakes.

Celeste held Escrit's hand, his palm was sweating.

Although before that, Escrit was already Celeste's lover, but now that they have become a real couple, this feeling is very different.

At least, that's what Celeste said.

He held his wife's hand stiffly and smiled dryly.

"Wait for me, please?"

Escrit bent down and pressed a soft kiss on Celeste's hot left cheek, "This dress is a bit too tight, I'll go to the back and change it." Unnatural, acting as if he was a real new wife.

"Ok."

Celeste barely controlled his almost stuttering speech and watched Escrit disappear behind the screen. He looked around in his wedding room in a daze, looking at the dressing table prepared for the bride. In the large mirror on the bed, he saw his expression like a fool, and the red lip marks on his left cheek.

He hurriedly took out his handkerchief to wipe off the lip marks on his face, but after a while, the lip marks on his face were wiped away, and now a faint red appeared on his entire left cheek, as if painted by a lady. the cosmetics they use.

However, his right cheek is also very red, so if you don't look carefully, you can't find anything unnatural.

When Escrito came out, he saw Celeste staring blankly at the mirror and wiping her face vigorously with a handkerchief.Celeste heard the movement of him coming out, and looked back, almost petrified.

Escrit was wearing a silk nightdress with suspenders, his long black hair was hanging down smoothly, his slender neck and most of his shoulders were exposed to the air, he hadn't lost the camouflage on his face yet, so It seemed extraordinarily...uh... Celeste couldn't describe it.

But his body took a few steps back honestly.Almost hit the door panel.

Escrit was trying to tease him on purpose, and he laughed uncontrollably when he saw Celeste's reaction.

"What are you afraid of?"

Escrit's tone was smiling: "Now you are the husband, aren't you?"

"Come to me? Huh?"

Celeste glanced at him, then quickly withdrew her gaze, "Don't you want me to be fooled again..."

After the first time that Escrit let him pass by dressed like this, he was completely fascinated. He agreed to any request made by Escrit, and he really suffered a lot. He only regretted it when he felt unwell the next morning.

Now Escrit wants to do the same trick again, but Celeste is determined not to step into this conspiracy again.

"Go and change into some normal clothes."

He tilted his head and said, "...or else I'd go to my own bedroom."

Generally speaking, even newlyweds will not live in the same room. After all, they are nobles and each needs their own private space. The bedrooms of the husband and wife are adjacent and independent, but there is a The door, after the two parties are intimate, they will go back to their bedroom through this door to rest.

Of course, it's not absolute. Couples who are in a good relationship will sometimes sleep together.

Celeste didn't intend to do this at first, after all, it is still very comfortable to be hugged by Escrit to sleep every night, but now, he has to start thinking about this issue, otherwise he is afraid that he will not be able to bear it...

His Excellency the Duke resisted resolutely for a while, but in the end he lost. Eskriter showed a few sad expressions, as if he was hurt, and Celeste was hooked.

The next morning, Celeste woke up very late, Escrit could now lie with him openly, he gave Celeste a gentle good morning kiss, and took care of the Duke who was a little messy. blond.

Celeste hadn't reacted yet, looking at Escrito who was holding her in a daze, wondering why he was still in bed today.It was later discovered that he had married Escrit.

Then, he felt uncomfortable all over his body. Escrito has been extraordinarily presumptuous recently, and he has no restraint at all when he was a servant. Thinking about the honeymoon after marriage, he suddenly felt that life was hopeless, as if alchemy had changed. It is very meaningful and worthy of him to study hard.

...I always feel that something is wrong.

According to the previous agreement, the honeymoon will be spent in the motherland of "Miss Carlo", the Os Empire. Celeste did not stay long in St. Peder before embarking on the journey to the Os Empire again.

During this month, Celeste turned down all his work and courses in full accordance with the honeymoon standards to accompany his new wife.The servants who served them found that the masters had a rather strange habit. The duchess did not need to be taken care of by a personal maid, nor did the duke need to be taken care of by a personal servant. Moreover, every morning, the madam was the first to get up. After she got up, she washed and dressed. , and sort out some housework, and then gently went to the bedroom to wake up the Duke. She is obviously a noble lady, but she is willing to take care of her husband like this. It can be said that she is very infatuated.

They all felt that the pair of masters they were serving were a good match. Although His Excellency the Duke was a bit lazy (he always got up very late, and his wife always took care of him), perhaps all nobles were like this, and with the addition of His Excellency the Duke A face that doesn't seem to have been kissed by an angel is not a shortcoming at all.

Sometimes when the mood comes, the Duke is willing to play the piano for his wife, or they will sit together and read a book, chatting about some sweet topics (this is what they guessed, because the lady and the Duke are smiling at this time), it is really a harmonious relationship right.

During the honeymoon, Escrito was able to control his behavior with ease. Sometimes he was demanding, and sometimes he was quite restrained. It can be said that he jumped back and forth on Celeste's bottom line, but he never failed. Every time, he can coax the duke who is going to turn his face back.

A month seems to be a long time, but it seems so short to recall after the end.Celeste sighed, and appeared in the alchemy laboratory again, still a little absent-minded.

"Congratulations on your wedding."

Aponomo smiled and said to him: "I understand your feelings very well, but, now, can you please concentrate? We are going to get to the point."

Celeste came back to his senses and apologized in embarrassment. He felt that Abenomo's tolerance for him seemed to have become a little low. In the past, Abenomo would never say anything when he was distracted. Instead, she turned around and comforted him, "Is my story boring you? You don't have to apologize, it's all my problem."

— That's what he used to say.

Now, Aponomo has completely changed his caliber. Sometimes when Celeste makes a small mistake, he will sarcastically say from the side: "Oh, it seems that marriage has a great adverse effect on you." yes, isn't it?"

Celeste suspected that Aponomo might have turned against him, so he was extra careful during this time.

He seemed to be very dissatisfied with Celeste's marriage, but he didn't say it clearly. Celeste couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so he simply wanted to put a distance between them.

This happened to be a good opportunity to end the contact, he thought: Since Aponomo's attitude has changed, it means that his patience with him has also come to an end, and the proposal to end the alchemy study at this time will definitely satisfy both parties.

So he tactfully asked Abenomo to ask for leave. The reason was that he was not in good health and needed to recuperate. People who knew him generally knew that although he called for leave, he would not come back later.

"Do you want to ask for leave again?"

But Aponomo's reaction was different from Celeste's expectation, "Could it be getting married again?"

Celeste was taken aback, although he had already prepared a false identity, and he also wanted to use the time after the leave to hold another wedding with Escrit.But Abenomo should never have known about it!

"Marriage is sacred."

Celeste replied: "The Lord stipulates that we can only marry one person in our life."

He brought up the gods he didn't quite believe in as a shield.

Abenomo smiled, his lips curled up, but there was no smile in his eyes:

"Yes, alone."

He said to himself: "Only one person... only one..."

——Although Celeste had prepared two skins for them, he and Escrito could only leave one in the end.

Either he died or Escrito died.
