278 Bride's Chamber

The bride's chamber had been prepared for the wedding night. The curtain surrounding her bed was changed into a gauzy red fabric that covered the mattress itself, and she could see red and white flower petals scattered on top of the bed. The vases inside her room were filled with pretty freshly-plucked flowers, and instead of lamps, a number of scented candles were used to light up the chamber. The soft lights gave a totally different feeling than the cozy and warm one she was used to.

'It doesn't feel like my room anymore,' Seren could not help but lament. The anxiety inside her chest continued to grow. 

"Your Majesty, this way please," Lady Xena said as she guided Seren's way towards the bed. 

Seren quietly followed Lady Xena as the woman drew the red gauzy curtain to one side, while her closest servants, Marie and Eva, could only look at the nervous queen helplessly.
