She Belongs To The Devil

The next few days passed by in the blink of an eye. The Palace was taken over by the wedding vibe.

As Adeline was the Future Queen of Wyverndale, her marriage was going to be one of the important events that the Kingdom would see. 

So all of the Royals were busy preparing the clothes, shoes, and jewelry for themselves. They were also busy ordering and purchasing the perfect gifts for the bride and the groom.

The maids and servants were also equally busy accompanying their masters or following their orders. The kitchen staffs were among the busiest ones since they had to prepare a banquet for around five hundred guests who would arrive for the wedding banquet.

It was also announced to the public that their future Queen was going to get married.

And as expected, Adeline's wedding was the talk of the villages. The people of the Golden Street were extra excited because the procession would take place after the marriage and they would get to see their Future Queen along with the Future Prince Consort.

It was a hot afternoon so, Nigel and Rhea were resting in the airy living room of Nigel's quarter along with the babies. Queen Claricia had also joined them.

There was a frantic knock on the door and they all heard Adeline's voice from the other side, "Rhea, are you inside? I need your help. It's urgent."

Adeline sounded so tense that they all thought something bad had happened. Rhea took a huge leap from where she was sitting and instantly opened the door… only to see Adeline covering herself up with a full-length hooded cloak in that hot weather and smiling.

"Ummm…" Rhea gave a questioning glance to Adeline and asked, "You… needed my help with something urgent?"

"Yes," Adeline peeked inside the room and when she saw the people who she was comfortable with, she asked, "May I come in?"

"Of course," Rhea fully opened the door and pulled Adeline inside the room with a wide smile. "So, what is it?"

Adeline went and stood in the middle of the room. She looked at everyone with a shy yet happy look on her face.

Everyone was curious to know what she was really up to. It didn't look like she needed any help with something. And their questions were answered when she slowly took off her cloak. Everyone's eyes were glued to Adeline, including the babies'.

Rhea covered her mouth with both of her palms while looking at Adeline. Claricia went and sat beside Nigel and Rhea to get a proper look at Adeline. And Nigel was fisting over his mouth and was on the verge of tears.

Nylah and Ramon were playing on the carpet. And Ramon flopped on his back after seeing his beautiful aunt in her extravagant wedding gown.

"So, my wedding gown came in today and I was trying it on." Adeline gave a nervous smile and asked everyone, "Well, how do I look? I need honest answers."

Adeline was wearing a white gown made out of pure silk. The gown had a boat neck design which had diamonds embedded lace sewn along the neckline. It enhanced her slender beauty bone even further. The sleeves of the gown were fitting and full length.

The gown was cladding her body tightly till her waist to reveal her slender upper body. And below her waist, the tiny pleats of the gown were making the gown look fuller.

Adeline was also wearing the veil on her head which came down to her hips. The veil had flower patterns on it and was of the same color as the gown.

"Does it look bad?" Adeline asked while furrowing her brows because none of them were saying anything.

"Come on! You know that 'bad' and 'you' can't be said together in a sentence." Rhea had a wide grin on her face when she said, "You look absolutely stunning, Adeline."

"Just like a moon goddess," Claricia added to what Rhea had said.

"Oh, you two are now exaggerating it," Adeline gave a shy smile and looked at the toddlers crawling towards her.

Queen Claricia chuckled and then said, "Oh, darling! We are doing anything but exaggerating. Prince Theodore might even faint when he sees you in this gown."

Adeline chuckled and then focused her attention on her brother who had been trying hard not to look at her. "Nigel, how do I look?"

Nigel looked up at his sister with teary eyes and smiled. He was feeling nostalgic while he recalled the very first day of Adeline's training.

Nigel wiped his tears and said to his sister, "I feel like it was just yesterday when I carried you on the first day of your training. You were so excited to wear the battle uniform which looked similar to everyone else's. Look at you now… You're already wearing your wedding gown."

Hearing her brother's words, Adeline's eyes were also filled with tears.

Nigel stood and went to hug his sister. "Time flies so quickly! My little sister is all grown up…" he whispered while his eyes filled with tears again.

"Did you expect me to stay little when you already have your little ones?" Adeline laughed while wiping her tears.

Nigel also chuckled and said, "I would have loved that. But that would be too selfish of me."

Rhea picked up both the toddlers so that they wouldn't disturb the sweet moment between the two grown crybabies.

Queen Claricia was over the moon seeing the bond between the two of them. "Oh, these two are making me cry!" she whispered while chuckling and wiping her tears.

Nigel and Adeline finally stopped crying and pulled away from the hug. And Nigel asked Adeline, "What about Theodore? Is his dress prepared?" He wrinkled his brows and asked, "Where does he even get his clothes prepared? In Hell or here?"

Adeline laughed and answered her brother, "He has very talented maids in his cave. They sew his clothes for him. I believe that his wedding dresses are also ready already."

"Holy hell!" Theodore face-palmed himself and sat on his bed. "I forgot to ask the maids to prepare a new dress for me! I even forgot to tell them that I'm getting married!"

Theodore dropped on the bed on his back slapped himself. "How can you forget such an important thing? What the hell is wrong with you?"

Theodore's lips curved downward and he whispered, "Well I was busy at Wyverndale Palace… And it skipped my mind…"

He slapped himself again and shouted, "How can it skip your mind? How? Now go naked at your wedding! There are only three days left and I have one maid who can sew."

He sighed loudly and threw his legs childishly. "I cannot even use magic for it. The dress will vanish once the magic wears off. And I don't want my wedding dress to vanish…"

"What should I do? Shall I ask for help from Azriel and Lucifer? Or shall I ask help from Adeline?" He slapped both of his cheeks at once and whined, "No! Azriel and Lucifer will just make fun of me and Adeline might get angry if she finds out how careless I was."

"Argh! I'm doomed!"

Out of the blue, his room was filled with sudden brightness. And that brightness kept on getting brighter and brighter until it became hard for Theodore to even open his eyes.

A very familiar fragrance entered Theodore's nose and his heart was filled with sudden warmth.

And a soft whisper escaped his lips, "Mother?"
