She Belongs To The Devil

"So that is how they walk in the sun then…" Adeline gritted her teeth and went into her thoughts.

Previously, she had anticipated that the vampires might attack at night if they were vulnerable to the sun. But now that she knew that they had potions to make them immune to the sun, there was an equal chance that they would be attacking Wyverndale in the daytime.

"Whether they attack at day or at night, we have to be equally prepared," Adeline thought to herself.

She then looked at Theodore and asked for his insights, "Theo, are there any spells or potions that could make the humans see better at night? Even if it is just temporary?"

Theodore blinked several times and gave an apologetic smile. "I only know about the ones that can take away the human sights."

Adeline opened her mouth to say something to him but then immediately shut her lips. She remembered how he had said that he had the affinity to chaos. And it wasn't as surprising considering his affinity.

Theodore then gave his own suggestion, "Maybe the witches of the Mystic Coven are aware of such spells. They are supposed to help humans. If they don't know of such spells then maybe my brother can teach them. I am sure he might know of such spells."

"Why do you need humans to see in the dark?" Nigel asked with a little bit of confusion.

And Adeline replied after a sigh, "If the vampires decide to attack during the night then I don't want the soldiers to be disadvantaged in every way possible. They are already disadvantaged in terms of agility and strength. And if they attack at night and the soldiers can't even sense them in the vicinity, then it will be a one-sided massacre rather than a war."

"Don't worry about that, Adeline. I will make sure that all the werewolves will fight by your side." Nigel tried to calm down the nerves of his sister. She already looked paranoid by this upcoming war.

"I need the soldiers to at least be able to defend themselves, if not defeat those predators." She smiled at Nigel and added, "Even if the werewolves will fight side-by-side with us, there aren't that many werewolves to begin with. They cannot focus on killing the vampires while at the same time jumping in every now and then to protect the soldiers."

Rhea also chimed in and agreed with Adeline, "I agree with her. Humans should at least be able to defend themselves. Because I don't think we will be able to protect the humans once we start to get affected by the bloodshed in the battlefield."

Adeline held her head in sudden realization of how she was basically asking the werewolves the most daunting task that she could ever ask. "Right! The human blood is werewolves' greatest weakness." She looked at her brother and asked, "Can the werewolves even suppress their animal urge to turn to humans?"

"The experienced werewolves can. But I can't say that for sure for the relatively new turners." Nigel also looked as if he had just realized that problem.

Then Theodore suggested to Adeline, "You said Edwin is going to meet the Vampire King, right? You can ask him to influence their battle strategy and separate the human soldiers and vampire soldiers. That way, the werewolves can focus on fighting the vampires without any hindrance. And there will be power balance as well."

Adeline appreciatively touched Theodore's hand and smiled, "That is a great idea. I will instruct brother Edwin to do the same." She let out a sigh of slight relief and added, "Thankfully we realized that imminent problem right now. Else the war would have been a mess."

She clenched her palms together and added, "I just hope that Edwin will be smart enough to influence their decision."

Nigel scoffed and added sarcastically, "Well, he is the son of that same witch who managed to convince them into attacking Wyverndale. So he should be able to steer the direction of the war with ease. Don't underestimate his cunningness."

Adeline smiled because she could sense a hint of jealousy sipping off from Nigel. So she focused her attention on her beloved brother, "Enough about the war. Brother, tell me how you are? How far have you reached in controlling your emotions?"

Nigel looked at the twins who were sound asleep in Rhea's arms and smiled at them. And he said in a soft voice, "Ever since the twins were born, my emotions have been quite stable. I don't lose my temper as easily as I used to."

Theodore then glanced at Nigel and shared what he had heard from the maids the other day, "I heard that you are now the second strongest wolf. Aren't you going to tell that to your sister?"

Adeline widened her eyes and asked with great excitement, "Is that true?"

Nigel ran his fingers through his raven black hair and kept on smiling. And Rhea praised her husband, "Yes, he is the strongest werewolf after the alpha himself. He surpassed everyone within a matter of a few months as a werewolf."

Nigel then lovingly patted on his sister's head and then appreciated her, "All the credit goes to my little sister. You always challenged me to do better." He chuckled and then continued, "To be honest, I had to do better because if I had not adapted to your strength then I would end up with way too many bruises by the end of the day."

"And I guess that made me prepared for what was about to happen in my life," Nigel smiled at his sister but he ended up making her sad.

She was sad because, for one, she didn't have Nigel as her sparring partner anymore. And to add to that, her strength wasn't what it used to be.

Nigel remembered Theodore saying how her powers were sealed and then quickly tried to lighten up her mood, "How is our father by the way? And is my mother doing okay?" Theodore had told him yesterday how he had taken their father to the fountain and thus he asked knowingly.

And it worked like magic to elevate her mood. "Father's health is better than before. He was already getting sick very frequently but Theodore took him to the fountain and now he looks really healthy, and also young."

"And Queen Claricia is also doing fine." She stole the loving gaze of the twins and said, "She keeps herself busy by knitting sweaters and hats for these young ones. She misses you all greatly though. But she doesn't show it to me."

They all engaged in some small talks for a little more but the twins woke up and it was getting harder for Rhea and Nigel to keep them occupied.

Adeline didn't want to leave them but she had no other choice than to return back to Wyverndale. She had to return back before Bennett would start to think that something was wrong with her for not getting out of her workroom for a long time.

So she finally got up from her seat and looked at the lovely family. And she took her leave, "Brother, sister, I should return back for today. I will visit you all soon again."

Nigel didn't insist to make her stay for longer. He was well aware that she could get into trouble if she stayed there any longer. "Sure. Make sure to come here frequently," Nigel also got up and tightly embraced his sister.

Adeline then hugged Rhea and kissed both of the twins. Theodore also bid goodbyes to his puppies and got ready to teleport to Wyverndale.

He held Adeline by her waist. Adeline gave a sad smile to her brother and sister-in-law.. And in no time, they disappeared from the room.
