Chapter 10: Wedding Dress

Prince Dorian had, thankfully, followed his mother’s advice, taking me back to our bed chamber after dinner and getting my diaper changed. I was beginning to like the woman more and more. Perhaps he was simply embarrassed and didn’t want a repeat of dinner. Still, Prince Dorian decided not only against adding any boosters to my diaper for the night but also against using the belt. I felt comfortable that night; the tight-fitting onesie he dressed me in was as humiliating and belittling as the first, but I found I enjoyed the feeling of the form-fitting garment. 

I woke early the next morning to an empty bed. I sat up, rubbing groggy eyes as I glanced around the room. Where had Prince Dorian gone? As I sat up, I realized what had woken me; my attendants were busying themselves in the room, preparing clothing for the day. The older of the two, Morris, I believe her name was, noticed I was awake. She turned toward me, bobbing a small curtsy, “Good morning, your grace.” she said, striding up towards the bed.

“Where is the Prince?” I asked curiously, the blankets pulled up around me to provide some level of decency.

“He is preparing for the wedding, your grace,” Morris said, keeping her chin low to show subservience. “We should get you ready as well, your grace.”

I nodded, sliding back up against the headrest of the bed. Morris turned and clapped a short rhythm; the doors opened, and a servant approached carrying a silver cloche-covered tray.  I pulled the blankets around me further, covering the infantile garment I was wearing as the servant uncovered the tray, revealing a tray of food and a glistening glass of juice. I found my mouth watering as Morris took the tray, and the servant offered me a bow before retreating and leaving the room. She turned back to me, holding the tray and delivering it, setting it across my lap. “Your grace, if you will, I would suggest using your diaper while you eat. Afterward, we will get you changed into your wedding attire,” she said, bowing her head and retreating.

I was caught off guard by her comment, my cheeks burning brightly. I wasn’t able to meet Morris’s eyes, although she had already returned to her colleagues to continue their work. I was completely mortified to have my padded state so casually discussed like that and to have a servant, a storming servant, tell me that I should USE my diaper! Well, it was enough to turn my entire body red with shame. I focused my energy on eating instead, a smaller replica of what we had eaten yesterday morning. I noticed that everything I had taken and eaten yesterday was present again this morning as if they had watched and seen what I enjoyed. Hopefully, I wouldn’t be locked into this meal forever more.

The meal was as tasty as any other I had had thus far in this castle; the castle’s cooks were certainly good at their jobs. I shifted uncomfortably as I realized that I did need to use the restroom. I usually did in the mornings. Along with the suggestions of my attendants, I was able to soak myself to my utter shame. The second, more pressing issue was more challenging to deal with. I did NOT want to do that in a diaper. I cast a glance at my attendants, an idea crossing my mind.

“Morris?” I asked.

The older lady turned, bowing slightly, “Yes, your grace.” she asked, approaching me.

“I need to relieve myself. Is there a restroom nearby?” I asked.

Morris lifted her chin subtly, “Your grace, you are wearing your restroom.” she answered simply.

“Yes, but I need to… do more than just relieve my bladder, and I don’t want to burden you with cleaning that.” I tried, hoping she would give in.

I saw the briefest twinkle in the older woman's eyes, her lips curving subtly at the edges as she answered, “Your grace, it’s an honor to be your attendant; I wouldn’t have taken the position if I wasn’t expecting to change you, messy or not. I trained for years with the Queen as her attendant. The Queen herself assigned me to you, thanks to my expertise.”

I gritted my teeth; while I had tried to keep my voice low so as not to attract attention, Morris seemed to have no such reservations. “I would rather use the restroom.” I stated more firmly, “Where is one?”

Morris didn’t back down if anything, and she puffed up more, “Your grace, we are under strict orders to ensure you follow the Prince’s training regime. If you need to soil yourself in such a manner, I would suggest you do so before we change you after breakfast.” she said, turning on her heels and retreating, leaving me stunned.

I had never been treated like that by a servant, and it left me feeling belittled and degraded. I wanted to fight back, to finally be able to use the bathroom, but what was the point? If I pushed her, she would certainly get the guards, or worse, Prince Dorian here to force me into submission. Even if I managed to summon the Wind of Summer, I couldn’t take on a whole kingdom just to prevent from messing myself. Much to my dismay, I realized that the best thing I could do was to use my diaper.

I groaned, my cheeks burning brightly as I shifted, lifting my rear off the bed and giving a gentle push. I had been on the verge of an accident anyway, and even if I had been permitted to use the bathroom, there was a strong likelihood that I wouldn’t have made it. My body burned with shame as I felt the mess squishing into the seat of my diaper, pressing outward. I kept my rear off the bed, utterly mortified. 

My other attendant, Elara, approached me, her head bowed. “Are you finished, your grace?” she asked.

At first, I thought she was talking about the act of soiling myself, and I was about to yell at her. The thought that it was okay for a servant to ask me such intimate questions was beyond mortifying. However, I noticed she was motioning toward my nearly empty tray. I found my appetite had faded with the shame coursing through me. I nodded weakly as she took the tray. Morris stepped up beside her as Elara took the tray away, pulling the blankets back and making me yelp in surprise, my rear still elevated off the bed.

While she didn’t say anything, I felt Morris’s eyes on my midsection, clearly studying me and realizing what I was doing.  “Are you finished, your grace?” she asked.

This time, I knew for a fact what she was asking about. I gritted my teeth, swinging my legs over the side of the bed and standing as best as I could without putting weight on my rear. “I am, thank you very much,” I said as dignified as I could, standing before this woman in an infantile onesie and a wet and messy diaper.

Morris, however, put a hand on my chest, pushing me back onto the bed and forcing me to sit. I grimaced, feeling the mess squish beneath me, “We’ll change you here, your grace.” she said, the slightest twinkle in her eye. 

I grimaced; she knew exactly what she was doing and was treading a fine line between being subservient and helpful. I gritted my teeth, letting her undo the snaps of the onesie between my legs and pulling the garment over my head. “Fine, be at it then,” I said, embarrassed as I was laid back.

Elara returned, holding a small stack of supplies, and Morris wasted no time popping the tabs of my diaper and pulling it open. I stared up at the ceiling, utterly mortified to be having my diaper changed, especially a messy one, by my attendants. Neither woman made a fuss of it, though, thankfully, wiping me clean with the expertise of a grandmother, hoisting my legs up, and pulling the soiled diaper out from beneath me, leaving me completely naked. 

Elara began unfolding this new diaper; it was a pristine white and seemed larger than the others I had worn. I gave it a quizzical eye as Morris began spreading it beneath my rear, gently setting me down upon the garment. “That is different than my usual ones,” I stated.

Morris nodded, “It is, your grace. This diaper was specially designed for your wedding day; it’s unlikely you’ll be able to be changed again until after the festivities; this needs to last you all day.” she explained, much to my mortification.

I groaned, realizing that I would be stuck in this diaper for a while; it was no wonder Morris had suggested I use my night diaper before changing it. If I hadn’t been able to go, I would certainly have been able to shortly after being changed. I nodded weakly, feeling a generous layer of powder being applied before the diaper was pulled into place. My intuition had been correct; this diaper was larger and thicker, similar to the pink diapers I had been wearing with the booster. They came well over my belly button and nearly midway up my back, the bulky garment forcing my legs to the side. “Is there a reason it’s so large?” I asked.

“Yes, your grace.” Morris responded, “Not only does it add absorbency, it lessens the chances of leaks, and, should you need to mess again, it offers more room, too.” 

I thought there had been nothing more they could say that would humiliate me, and she had proven me wrong. I blushed with shame as they helped me sit up, Elara making my soiled diaper disappear as I stood. The diaper was wider than my other diapers, too, forcing my legs apart; I would absolutely waddle in this thing. “I’m going to look like an idiot waddling in this!” I whined, trying to take a few steps.

“No one will notice, your grace.” Morris explained, “You will be endowed with layers upon layers in your wedding gown; everyone will assume it’s from that.” she said, taking my hand and leading me toward where they had set up the gown.

What I saw took my breath away. The wedding dress was crafted from layers of the finest silk and shimmering tulle, blending shades of soft ivory and pale gold that caught the light with every movement. The fabric was airy and graceful, flowing like a gentle breeze. The bodice was intricately embroidered with golden threads, forming patterns of swirling winds, leaves, and blossoms that symbolize the unity of the Four Winds. Tiny crystals were sewn into the design, sparkling like dew drops on morning petals and giving the dress a touch of ethereal magic. The neckline was elegant and softly scalloped, adorned with a delicate line of pearls.

The sleeves were sheer and fitted, tapering gently at the wrists where they ended in a delicate lace trim. As the dress moved, the sleeves caught the light, appearing almost weightless. Around the waist, a satin sash in a rich golden hue was tied in an elaborate knot at the back; its log ends trailing down to the floor. The skirt of the dress flowed from the waist in soft, cascading layers that created the impression of clouds or rippling water. The hem was embroidered with more golden leaves and symbols of the Four Winds. Completing the ensemble was a delicate veil of fine lace adorned with tiny gemstones in the colors of each Wind.

I ran my hand along the delicate fabrics, forgetting for a moment that I was standing before two women dressed in nothing but a thick diaper. I blushed as I glanced down at my nearly nude form, Morris stepping up and, along with the help of Elara, guiding the dress over my head. It took their combined effort to get the garment into place, straightening the skirts and flares, pulling lace tight and retying bows, singeing the dress tight around me. I felt it tighten around my midsection, moving with every breath, the gown showcasing a tasteful amount of cleavage as the woman worked.

With the dress in place, they began working my hair, drawing brushes and combs through the notes that had formed overnight, twisting strands into a beautiful braid that draped across the rest of my hair. They fixed a simple white bow atop the braid to hold everything in place before setting the veil in place. The long, delicate tulle was pulled back for the moment, draping down my back as the woman set to work with makeup.

Their hands were delicate but well practiced, applying a thin layer and covering blemishes before adding a thin, golden tiara to my head. As a last touch, the woman helped my feet into delicate-looking white slip-ons with thin straps. Thankfully, with the dress fully covering my feet, there was no reason for high heels, although I would have still preferred the height. But neither offered a pair as they pulled the straps tight, encompassing my feet. Given the thick diaper between my legs, it likely wasn’t a good idea to be in high heels anyway. 

The woman stepped back, studying me, walking around and fixing any minute details they saw out of place. Finally, they seemed finished, nodding their heads in approval. “How do I look?” I asked curiously.

“See for yourself, your grace,” Morris said, swiveling a full-sized mirror around to face me.

As the mirror came around to face me, I gasped in surprise. The sight that greeted me felt both dreamlike and startlingly real. The dress, which I had admired in stillness before, now flowed and breathed with my every movement. The soft ivory and pale gold fabric glimmered, catching the light and making me appear almost otherworldly. The embroidered patterns of swirling winds and tiny crystals sparkled across the bodice. My fiery red hair cascaded around my shoulders apart from the beautiful braid and delicate bow, the circle of gold resting upon my head glinting with gemstones that seemed to pulse—the delicate lace veil draped over my shoulders and down my back.

I noticed the way the sheer, fitted sleeves hugged my arms, the lace at my wrists framing my hands like a work of art. The satin sash at my waist accentuated my form, while the trailing ends created a sense of regal grace. The cascading layers of the skirts seemed to ripple and dance. 

But beyond the beauty of the gown, what truly struck me was the reflection of myself, transformed, standing on the precipice of destiny. At this moment, I saw not only as a bride but also as a future queen, a woman stepping into a life filled with challenges, power, and hope. The gravity of it brought warmth to my chest and a hint of tears to my eyes as I took in the full weight of who I was becoming. 

“Try to contain your tears, your grace.” Morris said, stepping forward with a small hand towel, drying my eyes, “Your makeup will run.”

I nodded sheepishly, containing myself as my eyes were dried. “Of course, thank you both, it’s stunning.” 

Both women smiled warmly, happy with the compliment, “It was our honor, your grace.” Elara responded with a small bow. “If we want to be on time, we need to be leaving,” she added.

“Of course, I wouldn’t want to be late for my wedding!” I said in a lighthearted manner. 

“I do believe that as the bride, the wedding revolves around you, your grace,” Morris said with a small chuckle as both women stepped to either side of me, supporting me as we started towards the bed chamber doors.

As the heavy doors to my bed chamber closed behind me, I felt the weight of each step I took echoing through the halls. My heart was a whirlwind of emotions, anticipation, nervousness, and a flicker of hope. The fabric of my gown rustled softly with each movement, the gravity of my role as both a bridge and a future queen weighing heavily upon me. My attendants walked close at hand, their quiet presence both reassuring and grounding.

Thoughts raced through my mind: memories of my childhood, moments spent dreaming of an unknown future, and the reality of the man I was about to marry. I wondered if Prince Dorian felt the same weight pressing upon him if his heart, too, was caught between the demands of duty and the uncertainty of what lies ahead. I felt the warmth of the golden sash around my waist; its trailing ends were a reminder of the path I had chosen for me. My eyes scanned the corridors, which had already seemed to grow familiar, but they felt different now as if each stone and tapestry whispered of change. I could feel fear, yes, but there was a spark of determination there, too. This moment was not merely about ceremony or tradition; it was a change for me to forge my own story to shape what the future holds. With each step, I resolved to be more than just a symbol or a pawn; I would be a force, a partner, and a leader in whatever destiny awaited me.
