Published at 2nd of May 2019 10:18:29 AM Chapter 5

As tradition dictated, the table was filled with all the favorite foods of both the bride and groom . The smell from the food made Zylvia's mouth water as she approached it . She could barely keep from squealing in anticipation of the delicious spread .

"You are starting to drool . " Kaldrek suddenly shook his head at her and made a small tutting noise .

Zylvia frowned at him . "There is delicious food just waiting to be eaten . How are you not drooling?"

"You . . . " Kaldrek started then stopped, sighed, and murmured, "Just get some food . "

"I was going to . "

Advertisement"Are you two already bickering?" Fayre interjected, "Usually that is saved until after the wedding day is over . "

Both newlyweds frowned . "Well we aren't exactly lovers, now are we?" Kaldrek pointed out, "We are just friends, so we are 'bickering' as friends sometimes do . "

The queen frowned at him, "Seriously, Kaldrek? You should apologize to Zylvia . You-"

Zylvia came to Kaldrek's defense, "Fayre, it is fine . He isn't wrong . We consider each other friends and that is it . "

After saying her piece the bride then grabbed a plate and started piling food on it . Kaldrek turned to the queen and assured her in a more serious tone of voice, "Don't worry, your highness, I will be considerate of Zylvia's feelings . But both of us just see each other as friends, so we treat each other as such . "

Fayre let out a sigh and said sadly, "I suppose that we can force you to get married, but we can't force you to fall in love . Just don't fall in love with anyone else, okay?"

"I consider marriage to be sacred . No need to worry about that . "

"Good . I will let you off . . . . for now . " The queen fell silent as she went to go get some food .

Kaldrek filled up a plate with some food and then sat down beside Zylvia . Next to her heaping plate, his looked a lot emptier .

Zylvia glanced up at Kaldrek then looked at his plate, "Is that all you are eating? You are already as skinny as a rail . You don't want to blow away, right?"

Kaldrek shrugged, "I can only eat so much in one sitting . Unlike you, I don't have a bottomless pit for a stomach . "

Zylvia gave him an indignant look, "What is that supposed to mean?"

"Just that it is impressive how much you can eat . " Kaldrek smiled and poked her cheeks, which currently resembled a hamster . "And you're still skinnier than I am . "

She wacked his hand away from her face, "Serilously, Kaldrek, you shouldn't tell a girl that she eats too much . "

"I didn't say you eat too much . I just said that you eat a lot . "

"You said that I have a bottomless pit for a stomach . How is that not saying I eat too much?"

"Well you use all the energy you get from the food, so obviously you don't eat too much . I didn't mean it the way you're taking it . "

She humphed at him and looked away, " . . . You really don't eat enough though . "

He let out a sigh of defeat, "Alright, but I really don't feel like eating much right now . "

"Eat, or be force fed," Zylvia commanded her husband .

Kaldrek eyes widened and he nodded, "Alright, alright, I get it . "

Zylvia grinned, "Good boy . " She patted his head as he ate until she was satisfied with his food intake .
