She Belongs To The Devil

"Come here my woman", Theodore offered his hand to Adeline while looking intently at her.

And as if she was compelled, Adeline's feet started to move towards Theodore on its own. She was also staring into Theodore's fiery eyes without even blinking. And then she held onto Theodore's hand ready to be swept off of her feet again.

But Theodore had some other plans. He pulled Adeline close to his own body and grabbed onto her waist. Then he leaned down and whispered in his seductive voice, "From today onwards you are sleeping with me… daily."

Adeline chuckled slightly and spoke in her honey-glazed voice, "Theo! You know I can't do that. What if someone comes into my room while I am not here and then thinks that I am kidnapped again?"

"I told you what happened the last time I slept with you. My maids were crying and were thinking that someone had rolled me in bed sheet and took me away." Adeline chuckled again and put her arms around Theodore's broad shoulders.

Theodore narrowed his eyes and said in his stern voice, "I was not asking you for your permission. I was just telling you that you are sleeping with me, starting today. And I don't want to hear any excuses."

Adeline tilted her head slightly and smiled at Theodore. She began to stroke his hair at the back of his head and tried to talk Theodore out of it, "I am not making excuses Theo, I am telling you the fact. My maids will turn this place upside down if they don't find me sleeping here."

But Theodore was not in the mood to listen to anything that Adeline had to say. He had already decided that he would come and take Adeline to his own place every night. And he was doing it anyhow.

He slightly shook his head and said, "I don't want to hear that your maids will find out that you are not sleeping in your room. Just tell them strictly that they are not to enter your private chamber without you calling them. It won't be a private chamber if anyone can come in without your permission."

Theodore was not being so stubborn without any reason though. He had seen firsthand that Lillian was becoming more and more dangerous day by day. For one to be able to call ancient Demoness such as Lilith, they needed to be able to control extreme amount of negative energy. And Lillian had already managed to do that in the broad daylight.

If Lillian was brave enough to summon a Demoness in the broad daylight, inside the Palace, he was afraid that Adeline would not be safe anymore, especially at night, because the negative energy and the power of the dark world would be at its peak at night time.

That was the main reason why he was being so unyielding to Adeline. He did not want Adeline to fall victim to the cruel witch who was hell-bent on taking her revenge with King Dragomir. He wanted to keep Adeline as far away as possible from that witch's reach. He wanted to keep her close to him so that he could protect her.

Theodore sighed and became a little lenient towards Adeline, "Okay, how about this… I promise to bring you back before your maids will wake up. But I am not teasing you about taking you with me every night." He leaned near her ear and whispered, "I am doing that with or without your permission."

Adeline felt his warm breath in her ears and moaned while tilting her head away. And she whispered back with a sweet smile on her face, "Why are you acting like this Theo?"

Theodore raised his brows and asked, "Acting like what?"

Adeline's lips were still curved upwards because of the way Theodore was acting like an over-protective suitor. But she did not mind it at all. She liked being wanted. She gave a whimsical grin and said playfully, "Acting like you are obsessed with me. Is the ancient Devil in love with a tiny human?"

Theodore tightened his grip around Adeline's waist even more. And he rubbed his nose against hers and said in a loving voice, "Wasn't that already clear, my woman? Of course I am in love with you."

Adeline's heart beat elevated all of a sudden when Theodore said those words. She did not know that she needed to hear him say it… say that he was in love with her. But now that she heard him say it, she wanted him to say that to her daily.

She was lost in the depth of his eyes when Theodore asked, "So, are you ready to come with me?" Theodore gave a hypnotizing smile to Adeline.

And Adeline could not refuse Theodore. So she nodded her head and was prepared to be teleported to Theodore's room.

However, instead of Theodore's room, they both had teleported outside of the cave. They were now standing at the entrance of the infamous Devil's cave.

Adeline was not expecting to be standing outside of the cave but she did not mind being teleported there. She looked at the entrance which made her feel nostalgic.

She vividly remembered the first time that she had stood outside of the cave in awe. Even though she was just three years old when she had stood here the first time, the amazing fairytale like experience had made her remember the things that happened in the cave in clear detail.

"Why did you teleport me here?" Adeline asked to Theodore while still looking at the torch-lit entrance in awe.

The entrance looked very old and eerie and most people would faint before they could make it inside the entrance. No one would believe that inside this cave a handsome Devil lived with his 72 followers in comfort and luxury unimaginable by normal humans.

"After your last visit here I realized that it was a mistake not to introduce you to any of my followers and servants." Theodore's eyes had a hint of regret as he remembered the scene of how Adeline was pinned down by the Ghoul. He remembered how she was wounded and he could not even think what would have happened if he was a little late.

Theodore took a deep breath in and then smiled at Adeline who was fine and healthy. He wanted to protect the delicate rose in front of him not just from the witch but from all the creatures that lived with him inside the cave.

He swept Adeline off of her feet and carried her in his arms and said, "I want to take you inside properly from now on. I want everyone to see you and know you. I want everyone to know that you are important to me so that they will not lay a finger on you, ever."

Theodore was being so considerate of her safety that Adeline thought she would melt from his kindness and affection towards her. She held onto Theodore's neck and let him carry her inside the cave.

Needless to say, it was a sight to see for everyone inside the cave. The creatures were bowing down to Theodore as he passed by them and they kept on staring at their master as he passed by while carrying a woman in his arms.

Last time he had done that, Adeline was covered in blood and wounds. And only a few of them were able to see that 'once in a lifetime' scene. Those who had witnessed that scene had gossiped with the others. And their master carrying, not just touching, but carrying a woman had become a hot topic in the cave.

Some of those who had not witnessed that scene first hand were even skeptical about the truth of that gossip. They just thought that few of the followers were trying to ruin the reputation of their master.

But now that they were able to witness their master carrying a lovely woman in his arms and walking towards his room, they were dumbfounded. Some of them were happy to finally see their master with a woman, some of them were envious of the lucky human, while some were even angry at Adeline for seducing their master and making him fall for some mere humanly pleasure.

Adeline was able to see all kinds of creatures looking at them and she could also hear the gossip going around the whole cave about her. Her whole face had turned red from all the attention that she was getting. And she was screaming inside, "Why does this corridor feel like it will never end?"

She had not felt this nervous ever before, not even when she was walking with her father in the banquet hall in her birthday ceremony. This time, maybe it was because of the fact that Theodore was carrying her or maybe it was because of the types of creatures that were watching her, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Theo, why don't you put me down? I don't like the way everyone is looking at me." Adeline whispered very softly near Theodore's ear. She did not want the other creatures to hear what she just said and get offended. And she definitely did not want them to hold their grudge against her.

From her last encounter with one of the creatures, she already knew that they were way too powerful than her. And she did not want to be attacked by something else.

But Theodore just smirked and held her even tightly, sending the clue that he was not letting her walk on her own right now.

So Adeline gritted from between her teeth, "Then please, walk faster Theodore."

But Theodore stopped on the way to talk to one of the human maid. "Bring some food that is suitable for her", he ordered to that maid and then walked towards his room.

After a long walk, they finally reached inside Theodore's room. Rather than putting Adeline down on the floor, he put her down on his bed. He also climbed on the bed and lay beside her.

And he asked in his alluring voice, "Now, where were we?"
