Sophie shook her head intermittently and her mother's jaws dropped as they stared at the familiar figure of Aidan stepped onto the regal podium of the Prince.
He was Prince Alexandra Aidan Voss D'Aragon, and he stood with commanding poise, clad in an ensemble tailored to precision.
He wore a dark, midnight-blue military-style suit trimmed with silver embroidery that shimmered subtly under the grand chandeliers. The structured jacket hugged his broad shoulders, adorned with silver epaulettes and the royal crest stitched over his left chest. A ceremonial sash of deep crimson crossed his torso, fastened with an ornate brooch bearing the D'Aragon family sigil.
Sophie's jaws dropped and she turned quickly to the direction of Anna, whose jaws were also dropped in shock.
She stared at the man before her.
