Chapter 399 - Ghost



"What… on… Hell? Even hellfire can\'t kill you?" Lucifer was grabbing his long silver hair with both of his hands and was pulling them. However, unlike his body language, he looked rather amazed by what he was seeing.

"It is very hot though. But yes, it is not affecting me at all!" Theodore tried catching the tall flames of hellfire and kicking them.

"Theo… Theo…" Adeline gently nudged Theodore who was sweating profusely. But he was not opening his eyes. Theodore was burning up and he was also breathing heavily. Adeline feared that something was wrong with him.

And to wake him up, she punched him on his chest while calling him a bit loudly, "Theodore!"

Theodore inhaled sharply and instantly sat up. However, Adeline was towering over him and he ended up bumping his head with her.

"Aah!" Both of them exclaimed simultaneously while pressing their forehead.

"Did something happen to you, Theo?" Adeline immediately pressed her palm over his forehead and said in a concerned voice, "You are burning up. And you were sweating a lot."

Theodore removed the blanket from his body because he really was burning up. He realized that he was covering himself up with both the blankets. And he chuckled while fanning himself with his palm.

"What\'s there to laugh about?" Adeline looked at him concerned. "Are you not feeling well?"

He vividly remembered his dream so he explained it to her while still fanning himself, "I think I was feeling hot because of the double blanket. And I had a really funny dream because I was feeling hot. So I cannot help but laugh."

Adeline also started to fan Theodore and asked him, "What dream?"

"I saw that I was standing at the pit of the hellfire. And somehow it was not burning me. Lucifer\'s reaction to that was too funny and I can\'t even…" he started to chuckle again.

Adeline smiled while looking at her man who had already lost his towel in his sleep. She put her arms around his neck and said, "So, when are you going to bring your clothes and some belongings here? It\'s not too ideal for you to go back and forth just to get your clothes."

Theodore pressed his lips into a thin line and asked, "I\'m naked, aren\'t I?"

"Uh-huh! Completely naked!" Adeline giggled and looked at his face. She pinched his chiseled jaw and gently shook his head. "Bring your belongings by today, okay?"

Theodore looked at her with a wistful smile on his face. "There are still ten days left for the wedding. And…" he inhaled deeply before asking, "And will our wedding even take place as planned after everything that happened yesterday? I wonder if your father would even agree to our marriage… He… he looked terrified of my devil form."

Adeline also pursed her lips because she was also worried about the same. And if he were to say no to their marriage then she had already thought that she was not going to argue with her father during his final month.

Adeline returned back to her zone and put a big smile on her face. "Theo, get dressed and come back. Then take me to my father\'s quarter. I haven\'t seen him since yesterday\'s incident. He might be worried about me if I don\'t visit him sooner."

It was not that she was still unable to walk properly. She was already feeling much better even though she only got a few hours of sleep. She asked him to take her to her father\'s quarter so that Theodore wouldn\'t run off to Hell and actually try to throw himself in the hellfire.

She didn\'t show it in her face but when Theodore told her about his dream, she got terrified to her core. She was afraid that he might end up doing that out of spite towards himself.

Theodore kept on gazing at Adeline with an intent look on his face. He could see her smiling. But he was not fooled by Adeline\'s smile because he could clearly hear her hammering heart.

Though she was trying to act all normal, he could tell that she was feeling restless. And he asked concerned, "You\'re going to be fine by yourself, right? Should I call your maids before I go?"

Adeline gave a playful look to him and teased him, "I would rather be the only person to see you naked."

Theodore covered his eyes with his palm and his shoulders moved up and down because of his suppressed laughter. Adeline was glad that she could make him laugh.

He managed to control his laughter and finally said, "Okay then, I will get dressed and come right back. We will visit King Dragomir together." Before teleporting himself to his bed back at the cave, Theodore tightly hugged Adeline.

Adeline\'s eyes widened at that surprise \'attack\' from Theodore but they softened immediately after. A soft smile crept up on her lips from his warm embrace.

After Theodore went to get dressed, Adeline got out of bed to go to the bathhouse.

Adeline had already forgotten that the guards were still there in the meeting room. And when she crossed from the meeting room in her long white gown and her long silver hair, she accidentally scared the half-asleep guards.

"Aaahhhhhh! Gh-Gh-Ghost!" one of the guards on watch duty alerted all the other guards. It didn\'t even take him a second to draw out his sword and point it at Adeline.

And of course, the guards scared Adeline as well. "Aaahhh! Where? Where\'s the ghost?" Adeline fisted both of her hands and turned around thinking there really was a ghost behind her.

Another guard who had deciphered the misunderstanding smacked the head of the watch guard and apologized to Adeline, "We\'re sorry, Your Highness. He must have had a nightmare."

Adeline sighed in relief. She turned towards the guards and ordered them, "All of you must be tired. Why don\'t you take a break or change your shifts?"

"All of us are on duty right now, Your Highness. We can only rest when another battalion will arrive. It will probably take a few more hours for them to arrive here." One of the guards briefed Adeline.

Adeline nodded her head and said, "Oh, then I hope they will arrive here soon."

By the time Adeline was back from the bathhouse, Theodore was already back in the room. "Theo, you\'re already here!" Adeline gave him a smile and said, "Umm… I have yet to get changed. I will call Haw–"

"Okay, I\'ll help you," Theodore didn\'t even let her finish her sentence and walked over to her wardrobe. He pretended to know where her gowns were and touched his chin. "Hmmm… which gown will you wear today?"

Adeline had a big grin on her face. She shook her head and pulled out a gown from the other side of the wardrobe.

"Oh, I was going to look there," Theodore pulled the gown from her hand and unfolded it. "It will look perfect on you."

"Of course it will," Adeline raised her head and boasted. And without any hesitation, she took off her nightgown.

Theodore happily helped her get dressed. After helping her with her dress, he carried her towards the dressing table and made her sit down on the chair.

"Adeline… are you awake? I\'m coming in," Hawisa shouted from outside and pushed the door open before getting an answer from Adeline. Osanna had forgotten to warn her that Theodore would probably be inside the room.

And when she opened the door, she was shocked to see the Devil helping Adeline with her hair. "Oh! Umm… Sorry. Please continue."

Adeline gave a smile to Hawisa. Theodore was way too immersed in Adeline\'s soft hair and he didn\'t even notice that Hawisa was still peeking from the door.

Hawisa was unable to take her eyes off that unbelievable scene and she kept on admiring the beautiful couple.
