Chapter 51
Hestia was also shocked at her reflection. She pinched her arm and winced when she felt the slight pain. She wasn't hallucinating. She was really looking at herself.
"Wow! You're really a genuis Ebony!" Her make up is so simple but Ebony made sure that all her good features were emphasized. The color of her eyes popped out more and her eyelashes was even thicker than before but not to thick that it will ruin her eye make-up. The peach tint Ebony used as a blush made her cheeks have a natural, subtle flush. Her naturally plump lips looked more kissable after Ebony applied lipstick and gloss the same color as her lips. It was really a tasteful make-up. And her hair was styled in a low neck bun, revealing her smooth neck and shoulders.
"I didn't do much! I wish I have porcelain skin like yours!" Ebony was really jealous at how good Hestia's skin was. "Tell me what's your secret?"
Hestia smiled at the begging Ebony. "Maybe because I'm not use to wearing make-ups."
Ebony taps her chin. "That's possible but girl you're skin is really a paradise for make-up artists and cosmetic brands. They will surely fight over you to endorse their products!"
"Thanks for your compliments but I don't desire to be in the limelight. I only wished to have a happy life and to have my own bakeshop."
Ebony hugged Hestia. "I hope your dreams will come true darling. Now let's change your clothes, Damon will surely kill me if I hold you for too long."
Ebony quickly grabbed the dress hanging at the corner of the room and removed it in its cover.
Hestia's eyes twinkled when she saw how beautiful the gown was. The gown was a combination of lace on tulle and a sanja skirt. The cream color of the gown perfectly matches her make-up.
Hestia flushed when she saw the low-V sweetheart neckline, she was worried to reveal too much skin but the neckline was made to add a touch of s.e.xiness to a cla.s.sic look. The details on the bodice was perfectly made and the sanja skirt was a modern and s.e.xy. The skirt drapes and flutters the curves of the wearer's body. All in all, the gown is both s.e.xy and cla.s.sy.
Ebony clapped her hands. She wiped the tears from her eyes. She cannot believe that her works can be otherworldly if worn by such an amazing person. "Damon will surely loose his mind after he sees you!" Ebony felt like a very proud mother.
Hestia shyly looked her reflection at the mirror. She looked really good. She twirled and smiled silly. She felt like a princess in the gown.
Ebony took pictures of Hestia. 'Geez! She thinks she's having a girl crush.' The gown fit perfectly, it accentuates Hestia's curvy figure.
"Come on my queen let us not make the king wait for long!"
Hestia nod her head. They walked towards the wedding hall with linked arms.
Ebony proudly held her head high. She wanted to boast that she's with a G.o.ddess and he felt really proud when people stopped on their tracks and just stare at
'Sorry guys but this G.o.ddesses is taken by a G.o.d so you don't have any chance you mortals!' Ebony smugly raised an eyebrow towards a guy who's literally drooling at the sight of Hestia. She shaked her head.
When they reached their destination, Hestia nervously sighed. She tried to calm her nerves by slowly inhaling and exhaling air.
Ebony gripped Hestia's hand. "You'll be okay, just relax and enjoy your moment. I know Damon will treat you well. He may be cold and aloof on the outside and also in the inside but actually he's soft and loving towards the one he cares and love."
"Thank you Ebony! Let's go."
Ebony nods her head and she then pushed the door open.
Damon, Elliot and their friend David who is a judge were happily chatting to each other when the door to the hall opened with a bang.
"The bride is here!" Ebony announced.
Elliot tapped Damon's shoulder. "Boss wait for your bride at the front."
Damon walked towards the front like a robot. It was so mechanical, Elliot snickered. 'Who would have thought that his boss can feel nervousness.' He smacked Damon's back. "Fighting boss!"
"Shut up!" Damon was nervous for the very first time. He unb.u.t.toned his s.h.i.+rt showing of part of his chest. He was fidgeting. He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. He was repeating the same breathing technique when Hestia entered the room. Damon almost forgot to breath the moment he laid eyes on Hestia.
Damon felt like the room was in slow motion. The way Hestia walked towards him is so bewitching. The sway of her full hips is so hypnotizing. Damon swallowed his saliva. 'd.a.m.n! His sweetheart is a G.o.ddess.'
"Wipe your drool boss." Elliot whispered beside him.
Damon believing his friend discreetly wiped his non-existing drool.
Elliot chuckled. "You miss a spot."
Realizing that he was being teased, Damon jabbed at Elliot's side making his friend stepped backwards.
"What was that for?!" Elliot winced in pain. He surely will have a bruise and maybe a broken rib.
Damon ignored his friend and when he felt like Hestia was taking her sweet time walking, he walked towards her and quickly guide her towards David.
Ebony snickered. "Can't you wait patiently? Hestia won't run you know."
"David can we start and just ignore the midget." Damon warmly gazed at Hestia. "You're so beautiful sweetheart." He then kissed Hestia on the lips.
"Ahem! Damon that's supposed to be at the end of the ceremony." David raised his brow. He was shocked to see a sweet Damon.
"Can't we skip the rest of the ceremony and just proceed to the 'I do's' and signing of our marriage certificate." Damon just wanted to be married to Hestia as soon as possible.
Hestia just gaped at Damon. "Are you okay with that sweetheart?"
Hestia sighed. She too was eager to be married to Damon. "I'm fine with it."
Damon once again kissed Hestia. "Don't worry sweetheart in our next wedding I'll make it up to you but right at this moment I can't wait no more. I want you to carry my name and be mine forever and ever."
"Amen." Elliot teased. Damon only glared at him.
"Are you really fine with it Hestia? If you're having second thoughts we can always cancell this marriage." David wanted to join with the fun.
"Are you really my friend?"
"I'm one hundred percent sure about marrying Damon." Hestia smiled.
"Thanks sweetheart. I love you!" Damon lovingly kissed Hestia's forehead, then her nose and lastly her sweet lips.
"Argh! Stop showing off!" David protested. His single heart was jealous. "Just sign this papers and buzz off my office. You're making me a diabetic with too much sweetness."
Hestia flushed. Her whole face was flaming red. Damon who eagerly signed the papers gave the pen to Hestia.
Hestia's beautiful penmans.h.i.+p sealed their fate.
"Now I p.r.o.nounce you husband and wife."
Elliot and Ebony clapped. They are genuinely happy for their friend Damon.
Damon grinned while Hestia smiled.
"You may now kiss the bride."
Damon wasted no time and fully kissed Hestia on the lips. It was a brief kiss but the intensity of it made Hestia loose her balance, thankfully Damon was supporting her back so she didn't fall on her bottom.
"Mrs. Hestia Gray, what a lovely name." Damon was trully pleased about changing Hestia's name.
"Now that we're married, let me legally adopt Ichigo."
Hestia leaned on Damon's chest. "I'm sure Ichi will be ecstatic about it." She raised her head to looked at her husband. "What will we tell to your parents and Ichigo about our abrupt marriage?" She was worried that they will be sad to know that they are not in the ceremony.
Damon caressed Hestia's hair. "No need to worry sweetheart, I've already told them about our plan to get married as doon as we get back home."
Hestia raised her eyebrow. "So you're that confident that I'll agree to marry you right away. What if refused to be married to you?"
"Then I'll use my secret weapon."
Hestia creased her brow. "What secret weapon?"
Damon smirked. "It's not a what but a who. And I'm talking about our son, Ichigo."
"Tsk, what a cunning man." Ebony said while rubbing her seventh month old tummy.
