BXBX NOVEL Chapter 198
Even more gorgeous was the design of the upper body, which emphasized the slenderness of the waist while the blue color darkened toward the top. And the collar was layered with ruffles of various sizes, reminding one of the petals of a rose just about to bloom.
The slit at the bust was narrow but deep, revealing a rich cleavage, and a luxurious sapphire necklace sparkled in the background. Still, Ekaterina’s white neck and collarbone peeking out from the ruffle was alluring while maintaining her dignity. The earrings adorning her ears sparkled with a dazzling brilliance.
The sleeves, while also evening-colored, were made of a translucent fabric. The transparent fabric emphasized the whiteness of Ekaterina’s skin to the viewer’s mind.
Her rich indigo hair was tied up in an intricate bun, which also reminded one of a rose. Furthermore, her hair was adorned with a real blue rose.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that it was a glass hair ornament, but its true-to-life form was more eye-catching than the expensive jewelry. The blue rose brings Ekaterina’s outfit together with the image of a rose, making her look like a living flower.
I managed to get ready in time! Or rather, Mina made it in time. It took us from this morning until now to get me ready.
It wasn’t this hard at the time of the Emperors’ visit because of the simplicity of the dress, but the hair was the most important thing at that time. It took so much time to get it tied. Camilla-san, the designer, was adamant that the hairstyle be perfect. I had to call in two maids to help me out.
It was true that a woman needed time to prepare for a wedding.
Perhaps I wasn’t much of a lady in my previous life. I always prepared myself in just enough time, 15 minutes at the most.
But I was glad that I spent hours getting dressed up. Because today, Big Brother looked even better than usual!
He usually dressed in white, but today he was dressed in a chic black outfit, the formal attire of a ducal lord. It suited him well….
Big Brother, as handsome and stylish as he was, would look great in any outfit, but today’s appearance was a little too much for me.
“Ekaterina.”
Alexei held out his hands, and Ekaterina walked over to her brother, placing her hands in his.
“My blue rose.”
With a pleasant smile, Alexei kissed his sister’s fingers.
“What beauty. No wonder so many people have tried to create a blue rose and have not succeeded. If it were so beautiful, it would have ascended to the garden of the heavens the moment it blossomed. I never thought that a phantom blue rose would walk up to me and touch my hand. I feel my heart tremble. My Ekaterina, my Goddess.”
With an almost pious gesture, Alexei gently touched Ekaterina’s cheek. She gazes at him wistfully.
“I wish for only one thing. Please do not go out in that form while the sun is still shining. As Your Majesty has said, the sun will come to you, longing for you, and take you away. Even the gods must be compelled to seek this blue rose.”
“Well…Big Brother.”
You are at the peak of being a Siscon today!
And your beautifully articulated skills were wonderful. Gold medal! I would like to give you a National Medal of Honor or whatever. As expected of me, a National Brocon. Sorry, for being such a sister.
“I don’t want to ascend into the heavens. I would like to ask Big Brother to take my hand while I am here on earth. I am happiest at Big Brother’s side.”
“Thank you-I am happy and delighted.”
Alexei smiled.
“I’ve always found banquets depressing, but now I have something to look forward to. Everyone will marvel at your beauty. I can’t wait to see how it all goes down.”
