Evillene looked at her son and her eyes filled with love and admiration. Yes, he was right.
Both of them were born to flip this world and there was no way one could stop them.
When Donovan looked at their triumphant look he smiled in mockery. Well, they can be smug as much as they want till Donovan ready Silja and strikes back.
"See, I don't see any problem now in marrying a human," Donovan looked at the crowd and spoke.
"Even though she managed to give birth to your child, what is the guarantee that the child will match the requirements? Won't a son born by her will be weaker than many," Minister Mormond argued again. He looked at Silja and scoffed disdainfully.
"Well, minister Mormond, even if she didn't give birth to any child, I wouldn't mind it. It's not like I'm the only successor. There is still Zivan, Samuel and Genevieve, who can take over the throne and bear as many successors as you want," Donovan made his stance clear.
No matter what, he will marry Silja. And it's okay if they never have any children.
Sire Mormond was lost for words when he heard what he said.
Even other people shut their mouths. Even though Prince Donovan was the favourite of everyone, they knew that he was very stubborn. And if he has already decided that he will marry a human princess no one else can stop him.
Silja looked at Donovan with a shocked face.
What he said in his last words shocked her completely. If he will allow his brothers or sister to bear the successor then that means that he won't take over the throne at all. He was ready to sacrifice his right to be the future king for her.
Silja brows furrowed and her head started to form so many questions. Even though she was very touched by what he said, she couldn't understand why he wanted to lose everything just for her.
She could tell that he liked her but was that enough to leave everything behind?
No matter what they had only spent less than a month together.
Was this much time enough for him to love her so deeply?
What is so special about her is that he is even ready to let go of the throne that he hands his family is trying to protect so meticulously.
Is this because of her powers?
A question arose in her head. And more she thought about it more she finds it the reason.
After all king Zachary has no intention to invite her to take part in the ceremony but when he noticed her powers by accident he literally forced her to come to the North.
On the other hand from the earlier words of lord Gracia it looked like that lady Jade was going to be the bride and it was decided. But in the end, she was chosen.
Why this sudden change?
When Silja was deeply in thought Donovan has already shut everyone's mouth.
"Huh, you are being so bold to say such words, prince Donovan. But are you sure you have thought it through? Because of what I see, it looks like you are only bewitched by her beautiful face," minister Mormond didn't hold back.
He has already offended the king a bit by protesting so why not a little more.
"I could see that what skills she used during the time of competition that made you choose her. With just one look at her clothes and we can guess what's happening here," he added.
And his eyes travelled on Silja's body. Silja was wearing a large shirt that was made for men. She has bound a belt on her shirt since it was very large. Her curves were not fully exposed but this type of clothing was not much appropriate for a woman to wear. Especially on the occasion like this where she was standing between the whole city.
When he pointed out many other people also started to look at her with different kinds of eyes.
Silja suddenly becomes very subconscious. She was always very confident but this situation was very different. She was standing there in Donovan's clothing and Mormond's words have instantly filled everyone's mind with so many dirty thoughts.
Donovan was holding back till now but the man in front of him was crossing his limits. Donovan could feel how uncomfortable Silja has become.
"You…." Benjamin opened his mouth scold them and tell them to stay within limits but someone else beat her to it.
"Huh, minister Mormond I could see that your toung has become very sharp. Also, you even forget how you forget about whom you are talking about," Donovan's voice was deep and very grave.

"If your own mind is dirty that doesn't mean that you can throw them on other people," Donovan added.
He then turned around and faced the people.
"When the rouges attached us back in the forest of Dragon creek, it was lady Silja who helped me to distract the rouges so other people could leave the forest safely. She even risked her own life to save mine. And when I was badly injured it was her who take care of me and helped tend my wounds," Donovan's clear voice rang throughout the grounds.
"If not for her I wouldn't have been standing here in front of you. She is the woman I have chosen not because she is beautiful but because I have seen how brave and strong she is. She may be a human and weak by physic but in terms of all other quality no one else can beat her," Donovan announced. Silja closed her eyes im relief when she heard him clear the matter.
"Im announcing at this moment that she will be my wife and from today onwards her reputation is my reputation. If I heard any of you talking any bad word about you without any proof I will make sure personally that the person receives appropriate punishment," Donovan was truly angered. He has to clear this today and make sure that people understand Silja's status. If not people will surely take her for granted and he would never let that happen.
"No matter if she bears me any children in future or not, lady Silja will always remain my wife and her status will be the same as mine in this kingdom and hierarchy of Royal family," Donovan announced.
Everyone widened their eyes in shock. Same status as prince?
They could finally understand that how much power prince Donovan has given to her.
Prince Donovan was the most powerful man in the kingdom after King Zachary and Queen Abrielle. And now Silja was also going to get the same status. That means she was even higher in position them prince Zivan, prince Samuel and Princess Genevieve.
Everyone was truly shocked.
"This must be your true feelings towards Lady Silja, prince Donovan. After all, why would you decide to leave the right to be the king and not have any children just to marry princess Silja?" Kruel was also very shocked when he heard Donovan's words.
Why such a sacrifice just for a woman?
And that too from prince Donovan who has a bad reputation with women. No one knows how many women Donovan has bedded till the date and that man himself wanted to tie down with one woman.
Strange.
"Huh? Are you cursing me for not having any children on this auspicious day? I never expected this from you, King Azazel," Donovan looked at him with narrowed eyes.
"That was certainly not what I meant," Kruel frowned.
"Hmm better not. And who said that I will never have any children, certainly none of you knows how to predict the future, do you?" Donovan said.
"Is prince Donovan planning to get a few more wives other than Princess Silja?" Kruel lifted his eyebrows in amusement.
Silja and Benjamin looked at Donovan in unison. Donovan looked at the woman looking at him with questions in her eyes. He smiled at her before looking up at Kruel.
"That seems to be my private matter so you don't have to dig that deep in my affairs, King Azazel," Donovan replied with a smile.
Silja frowned hearing his answer.
Was he planning to take another wife or mistress to give him a child?
Silja questioned herself.
Just thought of it made Silja disgusted.
Back in Atlanea it was a rule set by the Castemont family that a man or woman can not marry another spouse, alas one of them dies or they mutually decided to get a divorce.
This was to stop the practice of polygamy and save the rights of both man and woman.
So she has never expected that she will marry a man who has other women apart from her.
She looked at Donovan with narrowed eyes. If he intended to do something like that then she will never marry him.
Even Benjamin also frowned. He will never allow that to happen to her sister.
But before any one of them could protest, Donovan pulled Silja with him.
