When Adeline approached the King\'s Court, she saw that the guards had lined up on both sides of the path. And upon entering the court, she could see that it was equally heavily guarded as outside the court.

King Dragomir was sitting on his throne as though he had no tension whatsoever. Adeline walked up to the platform and then asked him, "Father, where are we going to have the meeting? Are we going to have it right here?"

"Oh, no. I am just sitting here to let them know that they are in my Kingdom… just to give that young King an inferiority complex." Dragomir replied very calmly. In fact, he was way calmer now that the time of Reginald\'s arrival was closing in by the second.

"To give him an inferiority complex?" Adeline kept on looking at her father to try and understand what he meant by that.

"I cannot let him think that he has power over me simply by showing up here like this. I have to assert my dominance and looking down on him from the throne is a great way to start." Dragomir chuckled after sharing one small trick that every ruler would need to use in times like this.

"After greeting them from here, I will take them to the meeting room that we had used when Theodore had come over," he detailed out his plans while adjusting the crown on his head.

A small smile curved up on Adeline\'s lips as she looked at her confident father. Adeline would have loved to be like her father, carefree and calm, but given the circumstance that was simply impossible for her.

Adeline was holding the sword behind her back until now. And she informed the King, "Father, I will be right back. I want to make sure that everything is in order in the meeting room."

"Of course." Dragomir also ordered his daughter, "And I had also asked the maids to prepare some tea and pastries. Make sure that they will bring it in the meeting room after everyone settles down."

"I will," Adeline smiled and bowed her head before heading towards the meeting room.

There were two squads of guards standing outside the door of the meeting room. Adeline called both the squad leaders and ordered them, "When the guests arrive, make sure that the guards stay outside the meeting room. But if the King of Mihir insists on taking them inside, I want one squad from our side to be present in the meeting as well."

"Understood, Your Highness," the squad leaders bowed and went to their position.

Adeline then opened the door to the meeting room and then went inside to find a nice spot to hide her sword at.

She glanced at the sofa where she sat the last time and thought, "Father and I were sitting here the last time so I think this will be our place today as well." She then pushed the sword below the sofa where she sat the last time.

She made sure that she wouldn\'t accidentally step on it and then walked out of the room to check on the kitchen staff of the court as the King had asked.

Theodore was enjoying tip-toeing behind Adeline while making sure that he wouldn\'t bump on anyone. But he abruptly stopped on his track because his sharp ears caught the sounds of the hooves of the horses and the rattling noise made by the carriage in a distance.

"Let\'s see all of you up close then," Theodore thought to himself and teleported outside the King\'s Court to wait for their arrival.

The guards at the Palace gate opened that huge metal gate to let in the guests. As the horses and the carriages passed by, the guards couldn\'t help but stare at the foreigners.

All of the Royal Guards of Reginald had long hair; some had hair that flowed below their shoulders while others had hair that reached their waist. Everyone had a few common traits and they were their red eyes and extremely smooth and pale skin.

And when they rode against the current of the wind in their horses, they almost looked as though they were the perfect human beings in existence.

Reginald and Rebekah were also curiously looking outside their carriage window to see what the Wyverndale Palace looked like.

They were amazed to see that the Palace area was really huge, unlike their own Palace. There were so many quarters scattered inside the Palace that Rebekah wondered out loud, "Okay, I\'m going to say it… are we inside a Palace, or are we inside a village? There is a whole settlement in here! Just how many Royals live here?"

Reginald was also looking around with wide eyes and said, "I think I will have to build a separate quarter for Adeline once we get married. She is habituated to living in such a large area, she might feel cramped in our Palace."

Rebekah glared at her brother with a repulsed look on her face and she thought, "He doesn\'t even let me have a new bed and he is already thinking of building a new quarter for the Princess whom he hasn\'t even had a proper conversation with."

After a while, the carriage came to a halt in front of the King\'s Court. The Royal Guards climbed down their horses and then took out trays and trays of expensive gifts they had brought for the King and the Princess. After they finished lining up, the coachman opened the door of the carriage for the Royals.

Reginald and Rebekah elegantly got out of the carriage. Both of them were adorned in clothes made out of light golden colored silk. Their red hair and red eyes looked even more prominent because of the subtle color of their clothes.

The guards of Wyverndale who were in the vicinity couldn\'t take their eyes off the guests because of their cold yet elegant appearance.

The Royal guards walked on either side of the Royals while carrying the gifts. And all of them began climbing the steps of the King\'s Court.

Rebekah whispered to her brother in her softest voice possible, "Oooh! I never saw you packing all these fabrics and jewelry. You sure know how to spoil a lady. Good luck, brother!"

"I have to spoil her a little to win her heart," Reginald smugly whispered back to his sister.

Theodore, who was walking a little behind them also heard what they were saying. He instantly understood the real intention of King Reginald.

"Dream on, boy!" A soft chuckle slipped from Theodore\'s lips at the thought of seeing a defeated look on that puny King\'s face after getting rejected by Adeline.

Rebekah turned around and looked a little baffled.

Reginald flicked his brows to his sister to ask what was wrong.

"I think I heard someone laugh," Rebekah whispered, still confused if she was just imagining it or if she had indeed heard someone.
