She Belongs To The Devil

Theodore and Adeline sat down after enjoying a steamy and passion-filled kiss. Theodore shared each and everything that he and Dragomir did and that they talked about.

"I am so glad that everything went well between the two of you." Adeline was still lost in her dream world when her eyes suddenly fell on the scroll that she threw earlier.

And all of a sudden, the reality kicked in.

She wanted to be happy for finally being able to marry the man that she was in love with. However, she could not help but worry about the fate of Wyverndale that the future had in store.

She did not have the luxury to delay the preparation for the retaliation of the incoming war. This was the time when she was supposed to gather the allies. And not just any allies, but those who did not want to be discovered by the world.

Who knew how much time it would take to convince the werewolves to fight for Wyverndale, not as the men they were but as the beasts that were underneath them.

And due to this very reason, Adeline wanted to visit Nigel as soon as possible so that she could set the plan in motion.

Adeline glanced at Theodore. He was still smiling and seemed to be lost in his daydream. She did not want to drag him out of his thoughts but she was already too restless to be celebrating.

So she gently nudged Theodore and apologetically asked, "Theodore, can I ask another favor from you?"

Theodore nodded as soon as she dropped the question. "Sure. You can ask as many favors as you want. I am all yours."

Adeline blushed a little and gave a soft smile to Theodore. And then she spoke in one breath, "Can you take me to Aberdeen? I want to meet brother Nigel and talk to him about the war and the vampires. I cannot mention these things in the letter. I would have gone in the carriage but I want to talk with Nigel before talking with the King. And if I announce that I am visiting Aberdeen, then I will have to meet the King and-"

"Shhh…" Theodore put his finger over Adeline's lips and made her stop. "You don't have to explain everything to me. I understand why you want me to take you there."

He gently caressed Adeline's jaw and then asked, "When do you want me to take you to Aberdeen?"

Adeline thought for a while and replied, "How about tomorrow? I will have to make some excuse, I don't want to shock father again by suddenly telling him about the war." She looked at Theodore with a little frown and asked, "You haven't mentioned anything to him about the war, have you?"

Theodore pinched on Adeline's cheeks. "Do you think I am that insensitive? I haven't told him anything that could have given him a hard time."

"That's great," Adeline sighed in relief.

Theodore got up on his feet and readied himself as if he was going somewhere. Adeline looked at him in confusion and asked, "You are going somewhere?"

"I'm going to Aberdeen," he replied casually.

Adeline looked at him with a bewildered look on her face. "You're going to Aberdeen? Now? B-But I want to go there tomorrow, not today."

Theodore nodded his head. "Yes, that's why I have to go there today and find out where exactly Nigel lives. I mean I can find that out by peeking through my divine vision but I would rather go there on my own and find out everything beforehand… things like what kind of people live there, how many maids and servants are there in Nigel's quarter, and things like that."

Adeline understood why he was going there today. "You want to make sure whether it would be safe for me to go there or not?" she asked with an appreciative smile.

Theodore smiled and placed a soft kiss on her forehead. "Yes. I want to make sure that nobody except puppy and his wife will be able to see us. If I happen to catch your brother alone then I will ask him to prepare a secret space for us to chat. That way they won't be too surprised when we give them a visit tomorrow and they won't create a commotion."

"That's nice thinking from your side," Adeline stood up and stole a kiss. "Also make sure to ask Nigel to bring the twins as well. I would love to hold them."

"Sure." Theodore waved his hand around him and cast the invisibility spell. He wanted to make sure that he was invisible to supernatural beings as well as humans. And then he disappeared from the room.

In the next moment, Theodore reappeared in the rainforest that was in front of the Palace of Aberdeen. He looked around at the gloomy and wet forest and sighed, "The forest looks too sad."

He inhaled the scent of the forest and began to slowly walk towards the Palace. "Now where do I find Nigel? He is a married man now. I don't want to peek into him and find him in some compromising situation... I guess I should just walk around until I hear someone mentioning his name or until I bump on him."

Before he could even take a few steps, he heard footsteps approaching him. He was in the beacon of the country of werewolves so he abruptly stopped in his track. He did not want his footsteps to be heard by whoever was coming in his direction.

As the footsteps approached closer and closer, he saw the one person who he wished he didn't meet in Aberdeen.

It was Fenris, of course.

He gagged and narrowed his eyes, "Ugh! What are the chances of running into the one man who I hate the most?"

Theodore glared at Fenris as he was walking towards him. He hoped that Fenris would scurry away faster so that he could continue his search for Nigel.

However, Fenris stopped right beside Theodore and looked around as if he was searching for someone.

"Why did this man stop walking? Can't he be less annoying?" Theodore rolled his eyes and kept on holding his breath.

And as if Fenris had heard Theodore talking to himself, the former guarded his face with both of his fists and shouted, "Who's there?"

Theodore widened his eyes because he happened to realize one thing. In the hurry, he had forgotten to tone down his demonic aura.

"Maybe that's why he is sensing my presence," Theodore thought quietly, almost wanting to hit himself on his head for being careless.
