"Uh! They sure know how to create a fuss, coming to another Kingdom unannounced. We can\'t even stop them from entering. They aren\'t bringing in that many guards and neither are they carrying any weapons!"

"Uff…" the guard sighed as he neared the Wyverndale Palace. "I hope that they will at least take half an hour more to arrive here. Else the King is going to get mad at all of us at the border for being incompetent."

Once he was inside the Palace, he directly took the horse in front of the King\'s Court, jumped down from the horse, and then ran inside as if his life depended on it.

He knocked on the door and restlessly said, "Your Majesty, it\'s an emergency."

"Come in," the second he heard the King, he went inside and then blurted out, "Your Majesty, the King, and Princess of Mihir are heading for the Palace as we speak. We did not have sufficient reason to stop them from entering. Neither they were coming here with an army, nor were they carrying any weapons."

Dragomir dropped the paper that he was holding and then leaned back on his chair. He took a moment to process what he just heard and then asked, "They are heading here as we speak? They already crossed the borders?"

Dragomir asked in confusion because he had clearly mentioned in the letter that he was going to meet them after two weeks. Also, the messenger that he sent to Mihir wasn\'t even back yet and the King of Mihir was already here… which did not make sense to him.

"Yes, Your Majesty. They might arrive within half an hour. I took the shortest route just so I could pre-inform you about their arrival." The guard replied while constantly looking down at the floor.

"Did they state the purpose of their visit?" Dragomir already guessed the answer but he asked just to reconfirm.

"They were saying that they are here with diplomatic reason and that they needed to talk to you and Princess Adeline."

Dragomir raised his brows in surprise and asked, "Princess Adeline? Are you sure that they specifically took her name?"

The guard finally looked the King in the eyes and nodded, "Yes, I am certain that they mentioned Her Highness\' name."

Dragomir let out a sigh and asked, "How many of them were there in total?"

"They were 16 in total. Twelve Royal Guards, two coachmen, and the King and the Princess." The guard kept his answer short and to the point.

"Is there anything else that I need to know," Dragomir asked while sighing for the umpteenth time.

"No, that\'s all, Your Majesty."

Dragomir nodded and then relieved the guard, "Then feel free to take a rest and have some food before you leave for the border again."

The guard had thought that the King would be angry at him but he was thankful that he didn\'t get such reactions. "Thank you, Your Majesty," the guard gratefully bowed to the King and then left.

A deep frown appeared on Dragomir\'s forehead after the guard left him alone. "They know that Adeline is already announced as the Future Ruler? Else why would the King specifically mention her name? Maybe they really want to make sure that peace will last in Adeline\'s ruling period as well…"

"Anyway, we will know what they really want in the meeting. As they are already here, I cannot just make them turn around and ask them to come back later." Dragomir took a deep breath in and then got up from his seat.

He began to walk towards Adeline\'s workroom while mumbling to himself, "But they sure like to push things and act on their own."

And he couldn\'t help but think, "Why such a hurry though? Is something about to happen in Mihir? Are they going to be under attack by some other Kingdoms? Are they being so forceful because they need a strong ally or something?"

"Adeline, are you in there?" Dragomir knocked on Adeline\'s door.

Adeline was catching up on some issues with the war when she heard her father\'s voice. She was going through a letter sent by Tabitha stating that one of their experiment was a success and they were able to create a flare to help in the war.

"Yes, father," she hurriedly gathered all the papers which had information related to the war and shoved them in one of the drawers.

She managed to open some random file and pretend to be going through that when her father opened the door to her room.

Without missing a beat, King Dragomir said with a serious tone, "Adeline, we have an emergency. The King of Mihir will reach here within 15-20 minutes. I want you to alert all the guards in the Palace since you said that you would be looking after the security on the day of their arrival. I will prepare the meeting room."

Adeline abruptly got up on her feet. She felt as though a spear had been pierced through her heart. And she asked with a bewildered look on her face, "He is coming here? Now? But we clearly asked him to come here after the wedding!"

"Yes, we did. But I have no idea why he thought that he could simply show up unannounced." He further informed her how many of them were coming and expressed his amusement, "I have to agree, the current King has some guts coming to our Kingdom unarmed. I guess he really wanted to show that he is here for peace."

"I\'m sure that is the reason," Adeline gave a mirthless smile to her father. She couldn\'t tell him that the King of Mihir didn\'t need any kind of weapon because he was the weapon. And she was pretty sure that all 16 of them who were coming were vampires.

Dragomir frantically scratched his brows and reminded Adeline to put on a good show, "Either way, he will reach here shortly so we will have to treat him well. I don\'t want the meeting to be an awkward one just because he came a little early than we expected."

"I understand. I will alert all the soldiers and join you." Adeline promptly understood what she had to do.

Dragomir immediately rushed outside to do everything that he could in such a short period of time.

And Adeline also ran right after him to inform the General who was in charge of the guards of the Palace. She didn\'t waste any time in ordering Bennett or anyone else to pass on the information because way too much time would be wasted in just explaining and re-explaining the same thing.

Adeline couldn\'t quite shake the sour feeling in the pit of her stomach. "The audacity!" She hated it that the Vampire King was coming there so suddenly.

She was cursing the Vampire King as she ran.. "Why the hell is he here? I\'m sure as hell that he is up to no good."
