Chapter 167 - Lethal



But rather than running, Adeline just kept on standing there, staring at Nigel in horror. This was the first time she was seeing her brother going through the pain of transformation. And everything was happening so fast that she was unable to think properly, let alone move her feet towards the door.

Even Fenris was shaken up by everything that was happening in the room. His heart was shattered into a million pieces and he had just found out that Theodore was indeed a Devil Prince. How else would he be able to do unexplainable things without any effort? And even though he knew better than anyone else not to stay in the same room as a wolf, his feet were denying to move. He was in too much of a shock.

"I said run!" Rhea pleaded again while digging her nails in her palm. She was trying her best to control her transformation. 

Theodore realized the depth of the situation that was unraveling in the room and then he quickly touched Nigel on his shoulder. Then he glanced at Rhea and held out his hand, and shouted, "Puppy, quick! Hold my hand. I will teleport the two of you to the forest."

Rhea was not the one to trust anyone so easily but the scent of blood was maddening. She desperately wanted to get out of this room and if possible, very far away from the human settlement. She took a leap of faith and grabbed Theodore\'s hand.

And in an instant, the three of them disappeared from the room.

Adeline\'s knees were already giving out seeing her brother like that. Once they were out of her sight, she let her body lose and dropped on the floor.

Fenris was still in shock but was fully sober now. He glanced at Adeline. He noticed her body quivering and her breath staggering; she was trying hard not to cry. Now he was confused about whether to comfort her or just leave her be. He didn\'t want that Devil Prince to barge in again and throw him out of the window or something worse.

He waited for a while for Theodore to appear again but Adeline was already losing a lot of blood. And her face was turning paler by every second. So he took some courage and asked Adeline, "Princess, do you want me to call for the maids to take care of your wounds? You might faint at this rate."

But Adeline was quick enough to refuse him, "No, don\'t call anyone. We will have to explain the mess and how I got these wounds. And honestly, I don\'t have that much energy."

Fenris nodded his head and awkwardly kept on standing where he was. He didn\'t even dare to go near Adeline. He just saw her fiancé vanishing into thin air and he didn\'t want any more surprises.

Suddenly, Adeline began to cry softly. She was trying not to make it obvious that she was crying but the way her shoulders were violently moving up and down gave her away.

Fenris couldn\'t keep on being the stone-hearted man. He walked towards Adeline and sat down on the floor in front of her, making sure that he maintained some distance. And he asked, "Adeline, are you in a lot of pain? I can ask for some medicine if you want. Or tell me what you want and I will bring it."

Instead of pushing Fenris away with her snide remarks, Adeline poured her heart out, "Why didn\'t I notice that today was the full moon? How could I forget it so easily? And why did brother accept my invitation? He could have reminded me what day it was and rejected my invitation…"

She kept on scolding herself as the tears kept on rolling down her cheeks, "And I had to go out of my way and host a dinner when I had never done this before… None of this would have happened if I had just stuck to my usual routine."

Adeline grabbed her hair and began to pull it as though to punish herself. But the wounds weren\'t even allowing her to do that. More blood began to sip out of her wounds as she moved her arms. The wound inflicted by a werewolf\'s claws was very lethal to the humans. But right now, Adeline didn\'t care if she was hurt.

Fenris\'s heart ached to see Adeline hurting herself. He could not just watch her like that from afar. Whether she was engaged or not, it didn\'t change the fact that he still had feelings for her. The feelings wouldn\'t simply go away in a minute.

So, he took out his handkerchief and then tore it into two pieces. Then he slid closer to Adeline and began tying the handkerchief around her wounds.

"Adeline, don\'t blame yourself for what happened today. They accepted your invitation because they wanted to. They didn\'t think that the dinner would extend for so long, we came here thinking it would end before the moon would shine. And none of us knew that your… that your fiancé would appear out of nowhere."

Fenris felt disheartened that the lovely dinner that Adeline had planned to welcome them turned out to be a disaster. And as much as he wanted to blame Theodore for whatever happened today, he somehow felt as though he was the main culprit.

And he apologized, "I am sorry for getting drunk and saying all those things. I think everything was triggered because of what I said."

Adeline just kept quiet. She knew that everything was her own fault. She could have shared with Nigel that she had romantic feelings for Theodore. She used to share anything and everything with Nigel, so why did she shy away from sharing this? She was mad at her brother for getting married secretly, but what about what she was doing? Her relationship with Theodore was almost like a secret marriage.

And she could have been mindful that today was a full moon. After all, Fenris had told her what Nigel would be going through each full moon. And she forgot all about it and invited the werewolves to dinner when they should have been staying in some secure place. She knew that whatever happened today was all her doing. She had no right to blame anyone else.

"I deserve this…" she quietly whispered and then completely fell to the ground, losing her leftover consciousness.
