She Belongs To The Devil

3Adeline and Theodore's hearts sunk when they heard the voice coming from outside. Before they could do anything about it, Fenris was already inside the room. And when they saw Fenris, both of them let out a sigh of relief because he already knew about the little secret of Theodore.     0

But they were in for a great shock by what happened after.     

Fenris glared at Theodore and suddenly, his eyes turned amber in color.     

"His eyes!" Adeline thought to herself while staring at Fenris.     

Fenris' expression changed that to an outraged one for some reason. He clenched his fists and gritted through his teeth, "You… why are you here? And how dare you step in my territory?"     

Theodore kept on staring at him with utter calmness. Then he turned to look at Nigel and asked while circling his index finger around his temple, "Has his screw come loose? What is he saying?"     

"What did you just say? Are you trying to say that I've gone mad? You come to my Kingdom and then you try to insult me?" Fenris snarled at Theodore and began to inch closer to him with the intention to fight him.     

"Fenris! Shut it already!" Rhea shouted as she went to Ramon's side to make sure that he wouldn't get scared.     

Nigel gave out a nervous chuckle and sprinted towards Fenris. He tightly held Fenris and tried to speak calmly, "Fenris, why are you getting agitated for no reason? Just go outside okay? The twins will get scared if you start to shout like this."     

Fenris closed his eyes and tried to control his anger. He also apologized, "I'm so sorry! I don't know why I'm feeling this way."     

"Okay, just go to your quarter for now. We will talk later," Nigel patted on Fenris' back and tried to send him away.     

However, Fenris got triggered again and screamed, "Why should I be the one to go? Why can't he go away?" Suddenly, his scream turned into a low and deep growl, "Why do you always treat me like crap and praise him? Why does everyone push me away?"     

Fenris' eyes glowed again and this time, it looked worse than before. Sharp claws protruded from his fingers and everyone in the room heard a loud crack coming from his back. And he let out a very painful growl while arching his back as though his back had been broken into half.     

"Oh no!" Nigel had a look of horror on his face while looking at Fenris.     

They heard another crack from Fenris' thigh and he fell to the ground on his knees.     

Nigel slowly stepped away from Fenris while softly warning Adeline and Theodore, "Uh! I think we all should run. This is his first transformation and there's no guarantee how he will react after transforming completely." Nigel then shouted with urgency, "Rhea, get the babies."     

Theodore narrowed his eyes at the troublemaker and offered to help, "There's no need to run. I will take him to the forest outside."     

He slowly walked and stood in front of Fenris and then looked down at him. His bones were constantly breaking and he was roaring and snarling in agonizing pain. Theodore understood why Fenris was acting so bizarrely. His mind wasn't in the right place.     

Theodore then grabbed Fenris by his broken arm and almost instantly, both of them vanished from the room.     

Rhea sat down on the bed after taking a sigh of relief. She was so troubled when Fenris started to turn right there in the middle of their room, near her precious babies.     

Nigel looked at his babies. Thankfully, both of them were peacefully sleeping beside Rhea even in the middle of that commotion. He glanced at Adeline who was still trying to comprehend what she had just witnessed.     

He then glanced back at his wife and then said, "Rhea, I will go and check on Fenris. Don't leave this room until I come back." After getting a nod from Rhea, he closed the door of the room and ran at the top of his speed.     

Adeline took a deep breath in and then turned around to look at Rhea and the babies. "Are you okay?" she asked Rhea who was holding her head.     

Rhea pushed back her curly hair and tried to give a smile to Adeline. "Yes. I'm glad that Theodore was here when Fenris turned. Else it could have turned into a disaster. So many things could have gone wrong."     

Adeline walked and sat down beside Rhea. She put her arms around her shoulder and hugged her. "Nothing went wrong. So, don't be so sad."     

But Rhea wasn't having it. She sighed in anger and frustration and said, "But what if you two weren't here? What if Fenris had done something to−" Rhea covered her mouth with her palm and the rims of her eyes were filled with tears.     

Adeline hugged Rhea even tightly and gently stroked her back. "Even if Theodore wasn't here, I'm sure you would have grabbed the twins and would have run away before Fenris fully turned."     

Adeline didn't want to say it but she said it anyway, "And I think Fenris might not have been triggered if he had not seen Theodore. I'm sorry for coming in unannounced and putting all of you in danger."     

Rhea raised her head to look at Adeline and smiled, "Don't say that! You know that's not true." She chuckled and added, "Well maybe he was a little triggered after seeing Theodore. But today's the full moon. Fenris was already showing the signs. He would have turned at night anyway."     

Rhea sighed again and said with irritation, "He should have already been taken to the dungeon. I don't know why they let him run around freely on the day of the full moon when they already knew his condition."     

"Maybe they were waiting for evening or nightfall." Adeline clicked her tongue and said, "Anyway, it's all over now. Theodore will help him out."     

"Yes, let's not concern ourselves with that matter." Rhea then put a wide smile on her face and asked while holding Adeline's hand, "So, what is the good news that you were going to give us?"     

Adeline smiled and looked down. Earlier, it had taken every bit of courage in her body to bring herself to give the news. But it went to waste because of Fenris. And it took some time for her to build up that courage again. She was surprised at herself for being so nervous for no reason.     

And while Adeline was coming up with her words, Rhea couldn't keep her curiosity in and she blurted out, "By any chance, are you pregnant?"
