Chapter 371 - Armed And Ready



"I thought I would at least have two weeks to give special training to the guards before that Vampire King would come here. But he sneakily arrived before I even got the chance to select the soldiers for the training." Adeline was blabbering to herself along the way.

Adeline ran towards General Keith\'s workroom which was situated beside the armory of the Palace. She didn\'t even care for the general courtesy to knock on the door and just barged into the room while shouting, "General! It\'s an emergency."

The General instantly got up and bowed to the Future Queen and waited for her to explain the matter with a very serious look on his face.

"The Vampire King that I told you all about, he is on his way to the Palace with other 15 people, most probably all of them are vampires. He said that he is here for a peaceful meeting but I highly doubt that."

Adeline stopped to breathe in and then ordered the General, "I want the dungeon area highly guarded. Don\'t let any red-eyed people get near Lillian. And I also want the King\'s Court and the King to be highly guarded at all times."

"Also make sure that all other areas of the Palace have enough guards so that they won\'t dare to sneak around."

After Adeline gave the orders, General Keith bowed and said, "I will do as you say, Your Highness. One quick question though, shall I brief the guards about the type of threat that we are dealing with?"

Adeline wrinkled her brows and then denied, "No, I don\'t think that would be a good idea since the concept of some supernatural creatures living among us won\'t be that easy to digest in a matter of 15 minutes. Even if they do believe, it will only make them panic. So we will keep that details for later."

"Sure."

Adeline instantly ran away from there without any particular destination in mind. Among all the people of the Palace, she was the one who was in a great panic; she was the one who knew that one wrong move or one wrong word in the meeting, then those monsters could go into a rampage.

"Ahhhhhhhh…" Adeline clenched her fists and let out an exasperated yet controlled scream.

"Theodore… I should call Theodore. I think I should ask him to stay in the meeting room… while being invisible," Adeline thought to herself and then made her way towards her quarter. "If they have some evil plans then I might need his help. I am no match for those bloody vampires."

Before she made her way to her private chamber, she passed through her personal armory and an idea crossed her mind. "Sword! I should bring that Cerberus sword with me."

As she could easily hide it, she thought that it could be an added advantage to her. "I know Theodore will be there but I might have to protect myself. You never know what might happen."

Adeline went in and grabbed the sword. "Hide," she spoke the magic word and then carried it in her hand with a plan to hide that sword somewhere in the meeting room.

She was already starting to hear the commotion outside. She could hear the Palace Guards marching here and there. She could hear the squad leaders ordering their squad around. Amidst all that, the whole Palace was in a state of orderly chaos.

Adeline hurried to her private chamber and didn\'t waste a beat to kiss her ring to summon Theodore.

"Hey, Ade−" Theodore\'s cheerful smile disappeared the moment he noticed the distraught look on Adeline\'s face.

"Adeline, are you okay?" Theodore furrowed his brows and instantly went ahead to reach for Adeline. "Why do you look so defeated? Did somethi– Ouch!" Theodore bent down and grimaced in pain all of a sudden.

"Oh, I\'m so sorry!" Adeline hastily kept her sword aside and apologized, "I\'m sorry! I was holding the sword that Lucifer gave to me. I forgot that you wouldn\'t be able to see it."

She bent down to look at Theodore\'s face and asked, "Hey, did I hurt you that badly? But the sword was still in its sheath…"

"No, it just happened to poke just the right area," Theodore took a deep breath in and straightened his back. And he asked, "What is all this noise? Is something going on in the Palace?"

Adeline frantically nodded her head and blurted, "The Vampire King is coming for the meeting without giving any notice. He will arrive here soon so I want you to be there in the meeting room with us to make sure that he or any other vampires won\'t be able to pull some trick on us."

Theodore didn\'t need to hear any further explanation. He instantly agreed, "Let\'s go to the meeting room then. You want me to show myself or conceal?"

"Concealing would be better for this meeting. If he says that he wants to talk just with the King or something like that then you won\'t be able to sneak in." Adeline hastily spoke as she went and picked back her sword.

Adeline was already walking when Theodore carefully pulled her and pressed her back against his body. He could hear her heartbeat beating way too loudly and he wanted to calm her before they went to the meeting room.

And he whispered to her, "Stay like this for a moment. I need to use your scent to conceal mine. The vampires have sharp noses so they might know that someone else is also present in the room even if they don\'t see me."

Adeline\'s stiff body gradually loosened and she leaned her head on Theodore\'s broad chest.

Theodore rested his chin on her head and kept on holding her for a few more moments.

Adeline\'s heartbeat also began to calm down a little. And he whispered, "You don\'t need to worry about this stupid meeting too much. If worst comes to worst then I\'ll knock all of those vampires out and teleport them back to where they belong. So, don\'t take too much pressure, alright?"

"Alright." Adeline took Theodore\'s hand and kissed him on his knuckles. "Thank you!"

Theodore kissed Adeline on her cheek and lovingly whispered, "You don\'t need to thank me. You know I\'d do anything for you." He let go of his hold on her and said, "Now let\'s go."

Adeline nodded her head and headed for the door.

Theodore performed the necessary incantations on himself and he closely followed Adeline.

Upon reaching outside, Adeline was glad to see that the guards were already armed and in position. She turned around to take a look at Theodore.. Though she couldn\'t see him, she could feel that he was very close by.
