I transmigrated and got a husband and a son!

"Mr. Ebonhart, let’s skip to the kiss the bride part."

The crowd immediately fell into pure silence before they started booing her. Dominic told her many things, but she simply wanted to skip to the good part.

Dominic, on the other hand, couldn’t help but chuckle. He glanced at Mr. Ebonhart and said, "She beat me to it, but please do."

The crowd gasped.

"Are you not interested in hearing what she got to say?!"

"She has to explain herself!"

"Don’t spoil her like this or she’ll be rotten!"

"Boo!"

Dominic pressed his lips and smiled at the crowd. "She already told me yesterday."

"What?" the crowd was in disbelief. "How could she do that?!"

"Hah! To skip this very part." Hera smirked arrogantly. "Also, I’m not granting all of you the chance to see me breaking down. My vows are for my husband only."

"That crying isn’t breaking down yet?" someone in the crowd wondered to the person next to him.

"It’s the first time I saw her cry... can she cry more?"

To be truthful, seeing Hera cry was a first for many of them. Most of them didn’t expect her to cry, even on her wedding day. Even so, Hera was only human and she would be affected by the warmth, kindness, and good words said today.

Those very few who had seen her cry in the past just remained quiet with a smile. But if they were going to comment, they would say Hera wasn’t crying at all today. At least, those tears were happy tears, not the ones they witnessed where she would almost lose her mind.

"Well..." Mr. Ebonhart cleared his throat. "Then I will go by to the couple’s wishes."

Mr. Ebonhart quickly spoke the rest of everything as if his bottom was on fire. Before he could even reach the kiss the bride part, he found himself panting for air.

"Goodness." He panted and darted his eyes between the ruthless couple. He straightened his back and cleared his throat before he announced, "I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."

Normally, during this part, people would be whistling, cheering, and clapping. But since most of the guests were the Reapers, only a few clapped. The rest reluctantly clapped but looked away, afraid this kiss would quickly turn into an R-rated scene.

They wouldn’t mind seeing one, but not their boss!

Hera didn’t care and anticipated Dominic to lean forward. He had this smile as he stood toe to toe with her. Closing her eyes, they sealed the promise of forever with a kiss.

My Darling Dominic,

When I was a child, I had a dream.

I wanted to live a life different from what I saw and simply become happy. That dream continuously evolved to marrying the love of my life and having children together until... I forgot about it.

Or rather, it’s not that I forgot about it. It is the fact I know it is a farfetched dream.

I am Hera Cruel.

The name that many feared, a person many people wanted dead.

To protect my own, to keep myself alive, I had to make sure the blood that would be spilled wasn’t mine or my people. Many think I am at the top of the world, yet that dream is still beyond my reach.

Do I hate it? Yes. It annoyed the hell out of me.

I hated my name, my face, my entire existence. However, I also understood why I would never reach such a dream and I thought I was fine with it. So, I simply accepted that I might be able to have everything except that.

And then it happened.

I woke up in Heaven’s body.

Heaven Liu. A woman whose life is far different from mine; a new name, a new face and body, and a new life. Most importantly, someone who isn’t associated with the underground. I was overjoyed at the mere thought, but even then, I never thought of that dream I used to have.

All I thought back then was that I could live a quiet life. A life where I could sleep like a baby, a life where I don’t have to constantly look over my shoulders, and a life that is far from everything about Hera Cruel.

But then I laid my eyes on you.

Those pair of cold and dark eyes carried so much depth of emptiness. They mirror mine. At that moment, I knew deep in my heart, I finally met someone who would make me grovel.

It scared me.

For the first time, I felt a real sense of dread creeping up my spine. So I thought, perhaps, divorcing this man wouldn’t be bad at all. But alas, fate had a different plan for us. Instead of breaking the already broken vow, it made us pick up the pieces and before I knew it, you and Basti were my world.

I started dreaming again; I started looking forward to a new day, wondering what tomorrow would bring us. All the things I buried as Hera, I was able to bring it all out.

The once farfetched dream didn’t feel so out of reach anymore. If anything, it was almost within my reach. But almost was never enough. Amidst this happiness, for some reason, I started feeling uneasy.

And it hit me when you called me "Heaven."

The uneasiness I felt was because I started wondering if it was me you love or the one you see. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

My hatred for Hera, for me, deepened. Every day, I had to tell myself I was Heaven Liu and Hera Cruel was dead. I had to believe and delude myself everything would be fine as long as I was in Heaven’s body. After all, there was no way you’d even spare a minute for Hera. Unless I abduct you.

But you... you proved me wrong. You and Basti proved me wrong.

For the longest time, I loathed my name until you called me "Hera," and all the things I had for that name disappeared.

Somehow, I thought my name sounded beautiful.

The more you call it, the more beautiful it sounds. And eventually, I don’t hate myself anymore.

I was not only feared or hated, but I was also loved, cherished, and cared for.

Thank you, my love.

Because of you, Hera Cruel was able to dream again. Because of you, I could live again and because of you, I want to live this dream as my reality.

You are my dream.

And now, this dream is not just almost within reach. It is now in the palm of our hands.

So, Dominic Zhu, I, Hera Cruel, take you to be my lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part.

Let’s have a happy life, my love.

-Hera.
