chuckled, gently squeezing her hand as he gazed upon her lovely features. They were both wearing a cloak to conceal their identities, but people still recognized them and offered friendly greetings as they passed by. "Still, let's have you sit. I will go "You eat street foods. Your Majesty?" she asked, surprise etched on her features as he guided her towards the bench where the street vendors sold their food. "Yes, I enjoyed it whenever I sneaked out during my younger years," Siegren chuckled, reminiscing about his younger years when he and his friends, Lucian and David, would sneak out of the palace. "Wait for me here, okay?" "Okay." Helga nodded in agreement and settled down on the bench, a small smile forming on her lips as she watched the Alpha King buy street food. She couldn't believe she was actually witnessing such a scene. Taking a moment to appreciate the beauty around her. Helga took a a deep breath and leaned back against the bench, gazing up at the glittering stars above before she closed her eyes and relished in the freshness of the air. Suddenly, she heard a faint noise behind her and opened. ber eyes, expecting Siegren to return with food. To her surprise, it was Elias standing there with a rose extended towards her. "Elias, why are you here? It's getting late. Are you by yourself?"
"I'm here with my parents, Your Majesty, we were waiting for the fireworks when I saw you," he explained, giving the flowers to Helga who gratefully accepted them. "I won't take up too much of your time because my father said you're on a date with His Majesty." Helga's face flushed with embarrassment as she watched Elias walk to the front to face her properly. He then bowed. respectfully before her, causing her eyes to widen. She was about to ask him if he was fine when the young boy lifted his head with a beaming smile on his face. Without questioning him, a sense of relief washed over her because he seemed fine despite the terrifying ordeal he had just been through. "Thank you
you for saving my life, Your Majesty. I will be forever grateful to you; I hope you and the Alpha King will be forever happy and healthy," he said before giving a quick wave and rushing toward his parents, who were eagerly waiting for him. Helga's heart fluttered as she watched them embrace, and she couldn't help but smile as they waved at her. She turned her head when Siegren finally returned to her side. "Where did you get the flower?"
"Elias was here a few seconds ago, he gave me the flower and thanked me for saving him." Helga smiled, smelling the rose and looking back at Siegren who was carrying a lot of food. "You bought a lot."
"I wasn't sure what you would like, so I bought a little bit of everything," he said before handing her the food and they started eating while taking in the lively scene of people enjoying themselves. Despite the late hour, everyone seemed to still have energy and the streets were bustling with activity.
"Elias said there would be fireworks, I want to watch it with you." Helga leaned her head against his shoulder, taking a deep sigh as she twirled the empty stick between her fingers. She closed her eyes, feeling a sense of relief after a long and exhausting day. Siegren then nuzzled his head against hers, showing that he too could sense how drained she was, and they both smiled softly in contentment.
"I know a great spot to watch the fireworks. We should head there later."

The festival was a blast, they hed various street performances and plays, and strolled around the lively Plaza. For once, they weren't preoccupied with anything else but each other during their first official date. The hours flew by in a blur, but every single moment spent together was cherished by both of them, and they hoped that this date would last for as long as possible. "COME SIT HERE Siegren beckoned as he spread his cloak onto the soft grass and led Helga to a spot beside him. She nodded and followed, her gaze taking in the beauty of the secret garden that belonged solely to the Alpha King. He pulled her close by the waist and she leaned into him, resting her head on his chest and wrapping her arms around him. Looking up at him with adoration, she couldn't help but smile widely
"How did you find this place, Your Majesty?" she asked, relishing the gentle touch of the breeze on her hair and the subtle sounds of the trees surrounding them.
"I just stumbled upon this place when I first tried to sneak out from the palace with Lucian and David. Then I heard a rumor that there was a ghost here, so no one really dared to approach it. At first, we didn't believe it until the three of us saw an old woman here." Siegren reminisced with a gentle laugh, recalling how frightened David was and how anxious Lucian was during that encounter.
"We assumed she was a ghost. However, it turns out that wasn't the case. According to her, she used to come here with her mate to watch the fireworks. But when he passed away, she began growing flowers in this spot instead. Perhaps that was why people mistook her for a ghost, especially since she always dressed in white." he added as he gazed at the stars. Meanwhile, Helga stared at him, her heart beating faster for some reason.
"That was sad, do you know where she is now?"
"Unfortunately, no. We were caught after we learned her story and weren't able to sneak out again. I just come here. occasionally for a break from inspecting the Central Plaza, though." he explained with a smile as he looked at her. "Look at the sky, the fireworks are about to begin."
Helga didn't speak but instead gazed at the sky where the fireworks were gradually bursting into vibrant shades of red and blue. Her eyes widened with wonder; though she had seen them before, this display felt particularly special. She couldn't tell if it was because Siegren was by her side or because it had been a long time since she had truly enjoyed herself like this.
"It's beautiful," she whispered in awe and Siegren nodded, never taking his eyes off of her as he admired her with deep affection. He couldn't help but feel a rapid beat in his chest and an indescribable tug at his heart as he gazed at her. And before he could stop himself, the words that he never intended to say slipped from his lips.
"I love you," His eyes widened, caught off guard by the words that escaped his lips. He quickly swallowed, hoping she hadn't heard him. But Helga slowly turned her head to look at him, her heart racing. The booming of the fireworks couldn't mask his confession-she had heard every word and it meant everything to her. "D-did you say you love me?" she asked, tears forming in her eyes, which made Siegren panic slightly. His hand trembled as he reached up to brush a stray tear from her cheek. He had been afraid to confess his feelings, but seeing how much it affected her made him wonder if his love was truly unrequited. Taking a deep breath, he moved in front of her and took her hands in his, kissing them gently before giving them a reassuring squeeze.
"I did," he nodded, his nerves were on edge as if he was a teenage boy admitting his feelings to a crush-As a result, Helga's breathing quickened in disbelief, looking at how his hand shook as he held her hands while gazing into her eyes, "At first, I wasn't sure if the attraction I felt towards you was just the result of our mate bond. But soon enough, I realized that I am 12:35 Fri, Oct 18.

"Even though I may not be your fated mate, I will love you and bring happiness to your life just like one. I promise to do everything in my power to ensure that you never regret choosing me and marrying... That's why, please... Accept my love." Siegren declared, his voice trembling with overwhelming emotion. "What do you mean to accept your love?" Helga's question caused his heart to race, afraid that she might reject him, and he would lose her forever. But when she unexpectedly pulled him into a kiss and then quickly pulled away, tears streaming down her cheeks. She never would have thought that he was in love with her, and if she had known, she wouldn't have tried so hard to suppress her own feelings.
"It should be me asking you to accept my love," she said, and Siegren's eyes began to sting as he listened to her words. He had so much to say, but the new emotion bubbling up inside him was too powerful for him to find the right words. Instead he pulled her into a deep kiss; one full of passion and love. Helga closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck. while the sound of their beating hearts blended with the crackling fireworks above them, creating a picture-perfect mome As they parted, they brushed away their tears and gazed deeply into each other's eyes, their noses almost touching.
"I love you," Siegren whispered, placing his forehead against hers.
"Me too, I love you, too," Helga smiled, the words tumbling out of her mouth effortlessly as she traced her fingertips alon his cheeks. She felt herself getting lost in the warmth and comfort he offered, it felt as though she had lost herself in and world. A world where she hoped, she could be happy for the rest of her days.
