Chapter 24

Lucky Number Five

A plan was in motion. Defenses were prepared. And I stood at the altar, quiet and brooding, as Darnel gave my big wedding speech.

“We are gathered here todaayyy to witness the joining of two great houses,” he boomed, probably channeling his inner Game of Thrones. “Here, we have the lovely Princess Nadiyya of Britonia, who will henceforth be the fifth honored bride of our Main Man Alan Winchester-Grant....”

Darnel wasn’t a bad orator, all said and done. His deep voice had the whole crowd enthralled. They already loved him because he made such good food.

If only my own thoughts could stray back to food.

“Alan, smile,” Aubrey mouthed from behind Nadiyya. My other wives were arrayed in their white clothing behind my newest wife, all except for Sayuri, who was busy elsewhere. The crowd wouldn’t miss her. That woman was always busy.

I plastered a smile on my face, holding the muscles tight. Nadiyya didn’t look much happier than I felt. Although I had promised to leave her alone when it came to the bedroom, she was still being sold off to some guy she didn’t know. She couldn’t ever be seen having a relationship with anyone except me, or else risk my alliance with Britonia. So, she would forever be stuck pretending to be my lover in public, while not being able to take any lovers of her own. Even if I deposed Archie, this would stand. It was a crummy situation all around.

I had to admit, though—she was beautiful. Her red sari clung to her little waist, the black sash pushing her tits up provocatively while the rest of the garment covered her ankle to wrist. We’d gotten a fiber-weaving machine from the drop by the sulfur site, and Carl had transported it back to the settlement especially for my wedding, once again via ptera-carriage. It occurred to me to wonder where they had gotten red and black dye—much less the white fabric my other wives were using. Someone must have discovered a bleaching agent to use on the few saber-tooth pelts we’d acquired. Tribe Grant was turning out to be fashionable.

Nadiyya’s gaze rose suddenly, and we locked eyes. Nadiyya looked away again, sad. I’d been half-hoping to see her blush. Was it really so bad to be marrying me? Maybe a part of me had hoped we could develop a friendship, at least... but her eyes were watering. She might cry any moment.

“Do you, Princess Nadiyya of Britonia, take this delicious chunk of man meat to be your lawfully wedded husbando?” Darnell said, making me blink. I’d been so lost looking at Nadiyya that I’d stopped hearing him.

Nadiyya straightened her shoulders and looked past me. She said woodenly, “I do.”

Ouch, I thought.

“Alan Winchester,” Darnel said, his brow dropping a little, “do you take this, ah....” He guttered for a moment, probably cutting out a phrase like Sexy Waifu Number Five in lieu of something serious. “This delicate flower of a beloved ally to be your lawfully wedded wife?”

I couldn’t help it.
