A/N: The big day is finally here! And as I mentioned at the end of the last chapter, there is a lemon at the end of this chapter. So I say again—you've been warned. As always, some of the characters are owned by C.S. Lewis and Disney. Now onward and upward…

CHAPTER 12

I wake up the morning of my wedding and a huge smile spreads over my face because I know this will be one of the best days of my life. It took me a while to fall asleep last night, but I got to sleep in this morning so I'm actually fairly well rested. The ceremony isn't until sundown this evening. We chose that time because it's a beautiful time of day, and that leaves more time this morning for everything to be set up. Plus, that leaves time for a fairly long reception afterwards, and there will still be time for other activities that Caspian and I are very much looking forward to.

I lay comfortably in bed thinking about the day for about thirty minutes until there's a knock at the door.

"Who is it?"

"You're favorite Molly!"

"Come in," I answer.

She bursts in the door with my breakfast on a tray and she sets it on my bed. "Oh my gosh, Anna. You're getting married today!" She says excitedly. "So how do you feel?"

"A little nervous about the ceremony, but I'm more excited than anything. I can't believe it's finally today."

"I know! I'm so happy for you! And just so you know, everything is under control. It is all set up and looks fabulous."

"Yah?"

"Yes, my friend. And I picked up your dress yesterday and made sure it is in perfect shape. I'll bring it by when I'm done here. But really, you'll have a pretty easy day. You'll have to spend a lot of it in here so you won't accidentally run into Caspian, but I'll bring you anything you need. And of course I'll help you get ready."

The rest of the morning and early afternoon goes just like she describes, and I don't get too stir crazy thanks to her. I try on my dress when she brings it, and it fits perfectly. The dress is white and covered in lace, reaching all the way down to the ground. The sleeves are long sheer lace and the dress has a little v-neckline. And it's fairly fitted, so it shows my curves. When I first tried it on, I didn't think at first glance that it would be the one for me. But once I saw my reflection in the mirror, I knew this was the perfect dress. It is simple but regal and makes me feel beautiful.

Molly brought some board games to help pass the time, although we spent a lot of the time talking and reminiscing about our childhood. Even though she's a servant, we've always had a special bond, and she has been like a sister to me all along. Then when it gets to be mid-afternoon, it's finally time to start getting ready. I take a bath but leave my hair dry. Molly comes and pins a little of it back so it won't be in my face all night. I put my dress back on, and I'm again happy with the reflection in the mirror now that I'm all ready.

Molly leaves me for a few minutes so she can get ready. She comes back looking beautiful in her powder pink dress, and it's finally time to make our way down to the room I will wait in by the courtyard until the ceremony. We have guards walk with us as we wind down back streets to the area of the courtyard. I get wonderful comments from the villagers we pass along the way as they remark on my dress and the wedding. We finally get to the house where I will wait, and I go take a quick look into the courtyard which is out the back of the house. I'm absolutely stunned at what I see. Because it is December and still cold outside, they erected the largest tent that I have ever seen over the entire courtyard. There are a few large contained fires to keep it warm inside. The smell of roses overtakes me, and I see thousands of flowers dispersed throughout the room in various arrangements. The most concentrated decorations are up on the stage. They've rolled out a carpet to create a center aisle which I will walk down. I don't want to be seen by many more people, so I go back inside and shut the door.

I go straight to Molly and pull her into a tight hug. "It's exactly what I wanted. It's beautiful. Thank you."

She squeezes back. "I'm glad you like it."

Dr. Cornelius enters through the main door and pulls me into a hug next. "My dear Anna, you are a beautiful bride."

"Thank you Professor. And thank you for walking me down the aisle."

"It is a privilege to do so, my dear."

"Have you seen Caspian today?" I ask him.

"I spent a few hours with him this morning. He's just as excited as you are."

We begin to hear more chatter outside as it gets closer to the start of the ceremony. The room gets filled quickly with Narnians and Telmarines alike, all gathered to see the wedding of their future king and queen. I get jittery when I get nervous, so I start pacing. I don't really like to be in front of large groups of people, but I don't really have a choice. Besides, there's no way that I'm not getting married today. My heart starts beating quicker when we hear the violins start to play the music, indicating that it's almost time to go. Molly goes first and will stand on my side up on the platform. I smile to myself, knowing that Caspian is already up there waiting for me. It's finally my turn, so I hold on to the Professor's arm with one hand and grasp my flowers tightly in the other. As soon as the doors open, we are greeted with smiling, joyous faces of the crowd. We have to go straight for quite a few steps and then we turn to the right down the main aisle. When we turn the corner, I see my Prince. He has the most perfect smile on his face, and I can't help but mirror it onto my own. I'm glad Dr. Cornelius was walking with me, or else I might just lose myself in Caspian's gaze. He looks amazing in his fitted tuxedo. We're quite the pair.

The ceremony continues beautifully. Aslan speaks as Caspian and I hold hands and look into each other's eyes as we make promises for a lifetime to each other. The room disappears and for a few moments, I feel like it's just me and Caspian. We exchange rings, and then it's finally time to have our first kiss as husband and wife. Caspian leans down and presses his soft lips against my own as the crowd cheers vigorously below us. It's a great start to a beautiful marriage.

The wedding party walks back to the house where I waited, and we meet up again with a large group of guards. They escort us to the largest of our dining halls where the reception will take place. This will be a much smaller group, reserved only for those we actually know and some other acquaintances and dignitaries that were necessary to invite. The room is decorated just as intricately to match the tent in the courtyard, only there are tables with grand centerpieces and a large clearing for dancing in the middle of the room. Caspian and I are at a table with our closest friends, and we all enjoy a wonderful feast for dinner. Then the band is brought in and we dance for the greater part of the evening.

The guests finally begin to filter out by ten o'clock, although Caspian keeps getting caught in conversations, as everyone wants to talk to the future king on his wedding day. It's understandable, but Caspian and I have other plans. I decide to sit and wait by one of the large fountains situated close to the exit, and I drag Molly along so that I look busy and no one tries to talk to me. She does a good job trying to distract me, but I can barely tear my eyes away from my husband. My face lights up just thinking that we are finally married.

"I don't even want to know what you're thinking about," said Molly. "He's not just a piece of meat, you know."

I look at her and we burst out laughing. "Thanks for that wonderful observation. But as husband and wife, we do have certain things that we can…"

"NOPE! Not listening!" says Molly, covering both of her ears. I teasingly roll my eyes at her and look back to where Caspian had been, but he isn't standing there anymore. Suddenly, someone sits next to me, rather close I might add. I'm startled at first, but I turn to see that it's just Caspian. He puts his arm around me, and asks, "What's going on with Molly?"

I reply, "Trust me, you don't want to know."

He then leans in closer to my ear, quietly saying, "I think we can finally get out of here."

I look into his eyes and see the same eager excitement and expectation. I slowly nod my head in agreement, and I wink at Molly as we walk past her. Tonight, since it is already late, we decided to stay in his new master bedroom-that had been Miraz's-before leaving for our honeymoon tomorrow. He opens the door for us, and picks me up bridal style to carry me across the threshold. I have only seen this room one other time before it became his. It's very romantic, with lots of candle light to help set the mood. The bed is a massive four poster made of dark oak. He places me on the ground and I immediately walk up to one side of the bed, placing my hand on one of the posts. I look around for my bag that Molly was supposed to have put in here for me earlier. I see it sitting on the desk, which is off to one side of the room. Caspian continues to just watch me. I have to walk past him to get to my bag, so I place a heated kiss on his lips in passing.

"Why don't you go freshen up first, then I'll go after you." I suggest.

"I'll be quick," he replies, winking as he backs up towards the bathroom.

This gives me the opportunity to check my bag. Everything is in here. I just need to wash the makeup off my face and take a quick bath, since it has been a long day. My hair is already mostly down, so I'll leave that alone. Caspian is done in about ten minutes, and he re-emerges shirtless, wearing only the shorts he uses to sleep in. I try not to stare, although tonight I'll finally be able to appreciate all of him. He walks up to me, clearly happy with the effect he is having on me. He gives me a deep kiss, then tilts my head back a little to give him access to my neck. He starts a trail of kisses down the side of my neck, and then pulls back and whispers, "Don't make me wait too long." I hope he isn't going to tease me like this all night…

I go into the bathroom and get ready in almost record time. When I'm out of the bath, I put on some white sheer lingerie. The bottoms are lace boyshort panties that are cut a little higher than usual in the back to show off more of my ass. The top is spaghetti strap, with a little thicker lace across my boobs. That way, I'm at least a little hidden at first. Around the stomach and back of the top is completely sheer material, and it extends down to right below my hips. Caspian is going to get a nice view pretty quick. I take one last look in the mirror. I've never considered myself to be sexy, but I definitely feel sexy right now. I slowly open the door and peak around the corner so he can't quite see me yet. He's lying back on the bed, but props himself up on his elbows to look over at me when he hears me open the door.

"Are you ready for me?" I asked.

"Oh, we've waited long enough." With that, he sits up and scoots so he is sitting up with his legs hanging off the bed, directly facing me.

I keep my eyes on him the whole time as I walk out in front of him, just a few feet from the bed. I fight the instinct to cover myself, even though it feels so foreign to be standing in front of someone with so little on. He slowly looks me up and down, and it's clear that he likes what he sees. I then turn so he can see the back of me, and I look over my shoulder I can see his reaction. He bites down on his bottom lip as he admires me. I turn back around to face him, and he gets up off the bed to come to me. He wraps his arms around me, whispering, "I love you." Then, putting a finger under my chin, he tilts my head up so he can kiss me. It doesn't take my body long to respond to him, especially as our hands started to roam to places that we haven't allowed the other person to touch before. His hands wander down my back to my butt and he gently squeezes the flesh. My hands explore his muscular chest and back and I grasp for him to be as close to me as possible. We break apart for a second, so he can back me up against the bed. I lay myself back and part my legs and he crawls up on top of me between them. He places a few more passionate kisses on my lips before moving down lower. He puts his hands on my sides, slightly under the material of my top. He slowly starts to push the fabric up my body, making sure to caress my sensitive skin and place a trail of kisses up my stomach. I just lay there in pure bliss, my heart feeling like it was going to explode with the love I feel for this man. He kisses up until he is just under my breasts, then he stops to send me a questioning look. I sit up a little and nod for him to continue, so he continues by lifting the rest of my top off and throwing it to the floor. I thought I'd feel nervous, being even partially naked, but the way he looks at me only encourages me more. He touches my breasts gently, then wastes no time bringing one of my sensitive nipples into his mouth. I let out a moan that I didn't even know I was holding in. He moves to the other side of my chest, sucking and swirling his tongue around the peak. I can't control my hips as they bucked forward in response. I feel the familiar anticipatory ache of my pussy that always happens when things get heated. He leaves my breasts for a moment, and grazes my body with his lips down the front of my body. He's moving a little faster now, and hooks his fingers around the top of my panties. I elevate my hips so he can pull them all the way off. He looks at me, now fully exposed, with awe written all over his face.

"You're so beautiful…"

Then he comes back down, kissing me again. I gasp when I feel a few of his fingers slowly slide over my clit. He knows I am ready because he feels how wet I am at my entrance. I push him up so he's sitting back on his knees. I start kissing all over his lips, neck, and chest, pausing to tease his nipples as well. Then I pull his shorts down, and he quickly lies to the side to take them off completely. He smiles at me as I admire him for the first time. He is big, just the perfect size. I'm aware that our first time will be a little painful for me, but I know he will be as gentle as he can be. I'm a little nervous, but I take him into my hand for the first time, loving the feel of his hard cock. Even though his eyes close in bliss, he doesn't let me continue for long. He gently grabs my wrist. "That feels amazing, but I want to last for our first time," he tells me quietly. Then he lies back down on top of me. This is now the closest we have ever been. Finally, we have no barriers whatsoever between us. In this moment, I know that nothing will ever feel as good as his skin against mine, and I will forever crave this closeness and unique bond with him. He kisses all over my face, then asks, "Are you ready?"

Without hesitation, I quickly nod my head up and down.

"I'll go as slow as you need me to, alright?"

"Ok."

He then reaches down to help guide himself though my entrance. I knew that I would be pretty tight, since I'm a virgin. Well, technically not anymore. It is extremely uncomfortable at first as he slowly pushes into me. I'm pretty sure my hymen had torn a while back, because I was so active as a kid, and there was not really any barrier that he has to push through. But for a moment, it does feel like he's not going to fit, and I can't hide all the discomfort on my face.

He stops moving altogether. "Are you alright? Do you want me to stop?" Caspian asks softly.

"No, don't stop" I reply. I put my hands on his lower back, encouraging him forward. He finally slides all the way in close to the base of his cock, and then he just rests there, letting me relax a little more. I can tell that it is taking a lot of restraint for him to not move. I wrap one hand around his neck, bringing him down for another deep kiss, feeling so loved and so safe here in his arms.

"I'm ready," I say, so he slowly starts to move. At first, It's slightly uncomfortable, but the amount of pleasure I feel is always more overpowering than any pain. He feels absolutely amazing, and I feel so wonderfully full of him. It's amazing how instinctual making love is. This is my first time, but I move and react to Caspian's movements, and I can feel my orgasm start to slowly build. My walls start to constrict here and there on their own as I try to hold my orgasm as long as I can. But the way Caspian is extending so deep inside me and pressing into my clit with every thrust makes it nearly impossible to hold it back. One last deep thrust and I climax hard, breathing heavily and letting out an uncontrollable whimper. "Ohhh…" is all Caspian can say in response. As my orgasm slowly dissipates, his is getting closer. He starts to really pick up his pace until he lets out a little yell of his own, erratically pushing his cock deeper into me as he climaxes and spills his cum into me. Not pulling out of me just yet, he lays completely flat on me. He rests his head on my shoulder so he can still look up at my face. It is perfection just lying there, holding each other tight. I rub my hand up and down his back, and have my other tangled in his hair. After a couple minutes, he gets soft, so he readjusts and pulls out of me. Then he moves over to next to me, and I turn to face him. It's nice to just lay there and look at each other, reveling in the moment.

"You still ok?" He asks, putting his hand on my abdomen.

"Yes. That was perfect."

"You don't regret marrying me yet?"

"I'll never regret that, my darling. Especially after what we just did. We're like old pro's, our first time out."

"We're pretty great together, huh?"

"You better believe it, love," I say, pulling his head down for a kiss.

We make love to each other slowly two more times before succumbing to sleep on our perfect wedding day.

A/N: I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
