Chapter 143 - Accidental Kiss



Meanwhile, Adeline was oblivious to the scheming of her brothers and sisters which they had planned against her. She was in her quarter and was lying down on her bed, thinking about the argument that she had with Nefriti.

Though it was Nefriti's fault for lying to her and then accusing her of not keeping their secret, Adeline was feeling remorseful for snapping back at Nefriti like that. "They were just starting to warm up to me and I shouted at Nefriti like that. I could have said that same thing in a softer tone. I am sure Nefriti is still angry at me."

She turned to her side and sighed. "I hope they won't start treating me like an outsider again."

Adeline threw her hands and feet and wriggled on the bed like a little child while shouting at the top of her lungs, "Aaaaaahhhhhhh! Why did I have to scare Nefriti away? They must all be thinking that I am a rude brat."

"Adeline, are you alright?" Adeline heard Hawisa's voice from outside.

Adeline clasped her mouth with her hand as she realized how she was screaming. And then she turned her head towards the door and replied, "Yes, I am alright, Hawisa."

And when she looked away from the door, she felt as though she saw a dark mist forming behind her. She abruptly jumped out of her bed and maintained her distance from that mist thinking that it might be some being from Hell.

Well, it was a being from Hell but not a dangerous one.

"Theo! Wh-why are you bending like that? Is something wrong?"

Theodore was bending backward, his back almost touching the ground. And he was holding out one of his hands in the air as though he was holding something invisible while the other hand was on his own neck as though he was clawing something.

Theodore fell on the floor as soon as Adeline finished asking that question. And he began to cough and gasp for air.

Adeline gasped and quickly ran towards Theodore. She feared that he was hurt like before and bent down to inspect him, "Theo, what happened?" She frantically looked at his face and then lifted his cloth to check on his stomach and chest. "Did someone hurt you again?"

Theodore smiled at Adeline. He loved how she was worried for his safety even when he was one of the strongest beings on all three worlds. He caught her hands and then said, "No Adeline, I am not hurt anywhere. I was in the middle of the fight with the Devil King. Will you help me up?"

Adeline pulled Theodore up and looked even more troubled, "You were fighting with the Devil King? Why?"

"I will tell you everything later. For now, I have to return back to the fight." He smiled as though fighting a King was nothing too serious and then placed a soft kiss on Adeline's forehead, "And thanks for saving me by the way."

And before Adeline could ask something more, Theodore vanished from the room.

Adeline stayed still for a while without even breathing. She was too shocked to hear the things that Theodore just told her. "Fighting the Devil King? Why in the name of Hell would he do that? Isn't defying a King equivalent to treason?"

She took a deep breath in and began to pace back and forth in the room. "But why was he thanking me for saving him? Did I do something?"

She scratched her forehead in frustration and that was when her eyes fell on the ring that Theodore had given to her. "Oh… Oh! My lips must have touched the ring."

She took a sharp breath in and spoke under her breath, "Does that mean he was about to lose the fight and being teleported here saved him from that? Well, he looked like he was being choked. Oh god! Why is he being so reckless fighting the King like that? What if I wouldn't have accidentally kissed the ring?"

She held her head with her hands and let out ragged breathing. "And he went back to the same fight! Why is he doing that? What do I do? How do I stop him?"

She was now frantically tapping her foot on the floor and biting her cuticles. "Should I kiss the ring again? But I already did that. He said it won't work more than once a day… maybe he was just saying that so that I wouldn't call him more than once a day. I should try."

Adeline kissed the ring again and waited for the mist to form in her room. She looked around desperately but there was no sign of Theodore. She kissed the ring multiple times hoping it would work but it didn't.

Adeline's heart beat was increasing rapidly thinking that Theodore was getting beaten to pulp by the Devil King. "What if that King kills… no! Theodore is a Devil Prince after all. He is strong. But what if the King is way too stronger than Theodore?"

"Aaaahhhh! Why is he being stupid and fighting the King?" Adeline jumped on the bed and pressed her face against the pillow. And she spoke in a muffled voice, "I hate him! He always keeps on giving headaches to me."

Adeline went to attend her personal training with General Osmond even though her mind was still occupied by Theodore. In the training, she was unable to focus on the incoming attacks and she ended up getting hit by the General a little too many times.

After returning back to her quarter, she restlessly waited for Theodore to come to her room so that she could ask why he was fighting with the King. But she was skeptical whether he would come tonight or not. And she wondered if he fell unconscious like the last time, who was going to take him back to his cave and help him heal.

"I hope that his followers will keep track of him and take him back if he is hurt too badly. But are they even allowed to keep an eye on him? I hope they are."

Adeline didn't eat much. She sent everyone off and then locked her doors behind. She kept on pacing around her room, waiting for Theodore.

And finally, a mist appeared in her room and when it cleared, Theodore gave a seductive smile to Adeline.
