Adeline and Theodore arrived in Adeline\'s workroom. By the time they returned back, it was already evening. Thankfully, it wasn\'t so dark and it wasn\'t time for the maids to come knocking at the door to light up the candles in her room.

Adeline was feeling a little sad for having to come back so quickly from Aberdeen. And she was sad that she didn\'t even get to take some gifts with her for the twins or her brother and sister-in-law because she didn\'t want to leave any traces of her visit to Aberdeen.

Theodore, who was noticing her sad eyes, gently caressed her cheeks and whispered with a whimsical smirk on his lips, "You know, I was thinking about what Rhea had said about me."

Adeline looked into his playful eyes and asked with a reciprocating smile, "And what is that?"

Theodore grabbed Adeline by her hips and brought her closer. He softly kissed under her ear and whispered with his hot breath, "She was saying that I would make a great father. And I cannot stop thinking about having your mini version."

Adeline\'s heart skipped several beats hearing him talk about having a child. Her pale face turned rosy and warm. And all she could do was smile shyly.

Theodore was enjoying seeing her blushing like that. He leaned closer to her ear and whispered again, "But first, let\'s focus on getting married as early as possible. I can\'t wait to show you off to all three worlds."

Adeline also couldn\'t wait to claim the Devil Prince all to herself. She gave a tight hug to him and said, "Yes, let\'s get married first. And everything, including our little ones, can follow after that."

Their sweet moment was disturbed by a knock on the door. Adeline quickly pulled herself away from the hug and asked, "Yes, who is it?"

And she heard the voice of Bennett, "Your Highness, it\'s me. I know you asked me not to disturb you but you haven\'t had any food for the whole day. And I couldn\'t bear to see you working by compromising your health."

"Oh, it\'s alright Bennett. I just finished my work. Just a second," Adeline shouted while facing towards the door.

She quickly gave a peck to Theodore and dismissed him, "I will see you at night."

"Sure," Theodore stole a warm kiss and then vanished from the room.

Adeline rushed towards her door and then opened it for Bennett. "Come in," she smiled and gestured to the maids who were standing there with food trays to get in.

Adeline\'s heart was still fluttering from the talk that she just had with Theodore. She didn\'t want to give away that she was flustered, so she kept on looking the other way and avoiding talking with Bennett.

However, she couldn\'t hide it from Bennett\'s keen eyes. He could tell that the Princess was definitely hiding something from him. He looked at the desk and didn\'t see many changes in the stacks of documents that were there.

And to add to that, he also noticed how the Princess\'s lip color was smudged a little.

However, nothing made sense to him. He was stealing glances of the Princess while thinking, "Why would the Princess stay inside the room for the whole day if she wasn\'t even going through the important documents? Was she tired and just decided to sleep for the whole day?"

He looked at her again, but it didn\'t look like she was sleeping either. And the curiosity was killing him.

After the maids went out of the room, he cleared his throat and finally caved in to his curiosity, "Your Highness, is something bothering you? I am sorry if I am overstepping but I feel like you are going through some problems."

Adeline showed some hesitance so Bennett politely added, "I can understand if you don\'t feel like sharing your problems with me but if it is something I could help you with, then I would be glad to assist you in any way I can."

Adeline pressed her lips into a thin line. She was not liking hiding things from him either, especially when the problem would soon be out in the open. However, she couldn\'t risk it by telling anything to anyone until Lillian was confined.

So she ambiguously said, "I have a lot of things in my mind these days. It has been a very tough week. And I was searching for some solutions on my own. But I will soon require your assistance and everyone else\'s. I will let you know once I figure out what to ask of you."

Bennett felt sad when the Princess agreed that she was indeed having some difficulties. He gently bowed his head and vowed, "I will help you with anything you need, Your Highness. Please make sure that you do not overwhelm yourself with the burden."

Adeline nodded her head and smiled. "Thank you for taking care of me, Bennett." She looked at the delicious meal that was brought to her and thanked him again, "The food looks appetizing. Thank you!"

Bennett was about to leave when Adeline called him again, "Oh, and before I forget, will you ask Prince Edwin to visit me after a while?"

"Sure. I will inform him," Bennett bowed and left.

Adeline sat down in her chair and began to enjoy her meal. After clearing everything on her plate, she set the plates aside and organized her thoughts. She had a lot of things that she needed Edwin to do for her.

Edwin knocked on the door and came inside. Adeline gestured him to sit down and then got straight into business, "Brother, did you ask Queen Lillian to hand over the further dealings with the King of Mihir to you?"

"She was busy this morning. So I will be meeting her this evening," Edwin replied confidently.

Adeline clenched her fists together and thought for a while. And then she said in a desperate voice, "Brother, I need you to meet the Vampire King within this week, no matter what. You need to find out how many vampire soldiers they have. And I also need you to try and influence their attack tactics."

"Influence how?" Edwin listened to Adeline very carefully.

And Adeline replied, "It would be great if you are able to make them cancel this war. But I don\'t want to be that optimistic. So, it would be really great if you can manage to persuade them to separate their vampire soldiers and human soldiers."

"Do you have any plans for the vampire soldiers?" Edwin wanted to know why she wanted them to be separated.

Adeline didn\'t want to reveal the secrets about the werewolves before they agreed to help her. So she instead said, "I have found some ways to kill the vampires. And I want to give special training to a limited number of soldiers so that they can hunt those vampires down. The methods of killing a vampire and a human can differ so I want the vampires to be separated from the lot."

Adeline\'s eyes sparkled as she said, "It will be easier for the specially trained soldiers to just focus on killing vampires."
