Another Chance for the Luna Queen novel

Chapter 0234 Chapter 0234 Everyone seemed to be having an incredibly good time , which was all I could have hoped for .

I wanted this to be a night to remember , one that would leave people thinking fondly of Ella , of myself , and of our bond .

Positive memories like these would be invaluable in countering the wave of negative publicity that had surrounded us in recent weeks .

For my part , I knew Id remember this night for the rest of my life , and I felt confident our guests would feel the same .

As we chatted and mingled , it was almost time for our first lance , though we were still making introductions and exchanging pleasantries .

The sheer number of attendees was overwhelming in the best way far more than I had expected .

In fact , I couldnt imagine many people showing up at Davids wedding considering how many were here tonight .

But thoughts of David Lake were not worth entertaining at the moment .

Dwelling on him would only sour my good mood .

Alex ! an excited female voice called out .

I turned , already knowing who it was .

Only one person still called me that .

Fiona .

I opened my arms for a hug , and she rushed forward , clasping me tightly and laughing .

I cant believe it ! she exclaimed , pulling away to smack my shoulder playfully .

Youre married before I am ! I cant believe it .

Maybe if you didnt treat men so roughly , youd be married by now , I teased , rubbing my shoulder with an exaggerated wince .

Ella , I said , turning to her and sliding an arm around her waist , this is my childhood friend , Fiona .

I dont think youve had the chance to meet her yet .

No , I dont believe so , Ella said with a warm smile .

Its good to know Im not the only woman who doesnt let Alexander get away with anything .

Fiona grinned mischievously .

Oh , I can already tell were going to get along just fine .

Downright criminal you havent introduced us before now ! she scolded , turning to glare at me with mock anger .

I raised my hands in mock surrender .

Hey , thats not my fault ! Youre the one whos been out of the capital for weeks at a time .

Ive been working , she shot back , narrowing her eyes , and you made no effort to coordinate with me .

Ive been busy , I replied with a shrug .

Busy falling in love and planning a wedding , she retorted , turning her attention back to Ella .

Congratulations ! You look absolutely stunning .

Thank you , Ella replied sweetly .

Lovebirds , Elizabeths voice cut through the conversation as she strolled up behind us , her tone light but teasing .

Its time for your first dance .

This is where you two get so lost in each others eyes , you barely notice the rest of the room .

Ella laughed , a soft blush stealing over her cheeks .

I couldnt help myself I bent down and kissed her lightly .

She continued to giggle , the sound like music of its own , as the crowd gathered in a wide circle around us .

I placed one hand on her waist , holding the other firmly but gently .

The room gradually fell into a hush , the kind of reverent silence that felt almost sacted .

Then the music began .

Ellas laughter faded, her focus shifting entirely to me as I pulled her close .

We hadnt practiced this dance , yet somehow it felt as though we had .

Our movements were effortless , in perfect harmony , as we swayed across the floor .

The intensity of Ellas gaze locked me in place , even as we spun and turned .

In that moment, I knew her eyes- soft yet piercing , brimming with joy would be burned into my memory forever .

Still , I couldnt look away .

This wasnt just a dance .

It was a promise , we would both get everything we wanted .

And I wanted to capture every detail , hold onto it tightly , and never let it go .
