The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69: Wedding Vows (I)

"Do you ... want to put the ring on my finger?" Primrose asked softly, holding out her hand toward Edmund. She quickly turned her face to the side, trying to hide her blushing cheeks.

Edmund froze. He was so stunned that his mind went completely blank, as if his brain had stopped working altogether.

"Husband," Primrose called, gently patting his cheek to wake him up. But when he didn’t respond, she gave him a little smack and shouted, "Edmund!"

"I’m here!" Edmund snapped out of it, standing up straighter within seconds. He blinked several times, clearly shocked. His cheek stung a little, but he didn’t care. His focus was only on the ring in his hand. "Did you ... say something, wife?"

Primrose let out a small sigh and patiently repeated, "I said, do you want to put the ring on my finger now?"

She hesitated, then added with a soft voice, "Since this is a wedding ring, shouldn’t we say our vows as we put the rings on each other?"

Edmund blinked, needing a few seconds before he could process her words. "You ... you want us to repeat our wedding vows?"

Primrose gave a small nod. "Back then, when we get married, I didn’t even bother listening to our vows because ..." She lowered her gaze, biting her bottom lip for a moment. "I thought you hated me, so I didn’t see the point."

Edmund’s eyes widened. "I’ve never hated you. Not even once."

[Now that I think about it,] Edmund realized, [my wife looked so sad on our wedding day.]

[She looked like she might cry, and I couldn’t bring myself to look at her for long. Every time I saw her beautiful face so full of sadness, it felt like my heart was breaking.]

"I know." Primrose lifted her head, showing him a soft smile. "I know now. That’s why I want to repeat our vows properly ... so that every time you call me your wife, I’ll hear it with peace in my heart."

At this moment, Primrose didn’t even bother to lie or try to act innocent just to win Edmund’s heart.

She truly wanted to repeat their wedding vows. After all, back then, the only thing she had managed to say was a plain, "I do," and she had chosen to shut her ears when the priest recited their wedding vows.

Because, really, what was the point of listening to vows when Primrose had no intention of keeping them at the time?

"Then, let’s repeat our wedding vows now," Edmund said without hesitation.

Primrose reached out and gently tugged at the edge of his cloak. "But when we say our wedding vows, humans usually put rings on each other’s fingers." She glanced up at him, a little unsure. "Did you ... make one for yourself too?"

Truthfully, she hadn’t expected much. She only ever mentioned wanting a ring for herself, not a matching pair.

But to her surprise, Edmund pulled out a second box from his pocket.

Unlike the first one, which was elegant and expensive, this box was plain, made of dark wood, without any carvings or decorations. It looked more like a simple trinket box than something meant for a wedding ring.

"I ... heard about that too," Edmund mumbled, eyes shifting away from hers as if he was embarrassed. "So I decided to make one for myself."

[If only the jeweler hadn’t told me that wedding rings are supposed to come in pairs for husband and wife, I probably wouldn’t have made one for myself.]
