King Conall\'s eyes dilated as he thought for a while about what Adeline had said. And after some pondering upon it, he finally nodded his head. "You are right. If we stand up against the vampires then at least the people of all the four Kingdoms will look at the werewolves as their allies."

And he touched his chin and said more to himself than to the others, "Those are the people whose validation matters to the werewolves as of now… because of the open borders and common treaty with Wyverndale."

King Conall glanced at Adeline and Theodore after heaving a deep sigh. And then he pledged to support Wyverndale. "I will be ready for the war, Princess Adeline. We will send the reinforcement whenever you demand."

Adeline let out a sigh of relief after hearing that. Her face beamed with happiness as she gained the ally that she had desperately wanted to have by her side.

Theodore was also happy for his wife. He had also been worried regarding the war. And now that the werewolves were onboard, his worry lessened a little.

Nigel was impressed with his little sister. "She sure knows how to handle any kind of situation and turn them in her favor," he thought.

Adeline really had her way with the words. She was able to speak the right things and address the concerns of the King. And she was also able to persuade the King into agreeing to help her.

Even Fenris and Wulfric were impressed by her because they would have never been able to turn things around once their father would get angered.

"What about the other Kingdoms? Tarrin and Frostford? Will they also help?" King Conall was also well aware of the power of the magic wielders of Frostford. "The witches and wizards would also be of great help to fight against the vampires."

Adeline took a sharp breath in and forced a smile. She cleared her throat and said, "Brother Edwin had said that he would try to ask for their help in a meeting a few weeks back. We all got busy with the wedding so he hasn\'t yet talked with his uncle I think."

"That means there\'s a chance that Frostford will also join this war? From Wyverndale\'s side?" Nigel raised his brows and asked with some skepticism lingering in his eyes.

Adeline was sure that Edwin would try to talk to his uncle, however, she was really unsure if the King of Frostford would agree to help… since he was already an ally to the Vampire King from what she knew.

So she answered in a surficial way, "Well, it depends on King Leonel. I don\'t know if he would agree to help us. The news about the existence of vampires has already spread across the Kingdoms and I don\'t know if he would be interested in lending hands."

King Conall then extended his help to Adeline, "If you require me to help in persuading the King of Frostford then do tell me. If we face those vampires with a united front then I am sure they won\'t stand a chance. So I would like to help in any way I can."

"Thank you so much, Your Majesty. I really appreciate your kindness." Adeline gave a smile full of gratitude to the King of Aberdeen.

As the breakfast was now already cold, Adeline asked the King, "Your Majesty, I will ask the maids to bring in hot breakfast for us. I hope that it won\'t delay your departure time."

King Conall smiled and said, "I would love to return back to Aberdeen with a full belly. I don\'t mind having hot breakfast and being a little late."

Adeline gave a soft chuckle and nodded. And then she called out for her maids. She gave the instruction to Hawisa and after she left with the order, Adeline turned to look at Nigel and asked, "Brother, I had forgotten to ask you in the rush of the wedding… are you and Rhea going to stay for a few more days, along with the kids?"

Nigel gave a sad smile and looked at his alpha. And then he turned to look at Adeline and replied, "We have already stayed here for so many days. We will return along with everyone… today."

Adeline and Theodore exchanged a knowing glance with each other.

Adeline didn\'t want her brother to be away during the last days of their father. And she definitely didn\'t want him to regret for not being by their father\'s side when he would be on his deathbed.

So she tried to persuade her brother to stay for a few more weeks. "Brother! You haven\'t stayed long enough. Won\'t you stay back and let me play with the twins for a few more weeks? I haven\'t even spent enough time with them yet. And I\'m sure our father would love to spend some more time with them."

Nigel gave a sad look to Adeline. He didn\'t even try to put on a fake smile this time around. "I know he would have loved to spend more time with his grandkids. To be honest, I would have loved to stay for some more time."

He gritted out the words even when he was feeling sharp pricks in his heart, "But… let\'s be real, Adeline. We all need to prepare for the war now."

He glanced at the King and then at Adeline. And said, "And I might have to train the other wolves and get them battle-ready."

Adeline wanted to tell her brother the real reason behind that request but she didn\'t want to say it in front of everyone, especially not in front of Queen Claricia. She didn\'t want to make her feel devastated, at least not right away.

Theodore noticed her dilemma and decided to help her out. He stretched out his arms as if he was tired and said, "Ahh! I feel like putting on some nice music while having breakfast. The talk about the war ruined the mood."

He then looked at Nigel and asked, "Nigel, there\'s a harp in our room. Will you help Adeline to bring it here? I would have brought it myself but I don\'t feel like moving a muscle right now."

"Hmm…" Nigel was confused as to why Theodore would want to listen to the music out of the blue. But he agreed anyway, "Sure."

Adeline glanced at Theodore and gave a short smile before getting up from her chair. She was so glad that Theodore would know what to do without her asking for his help. She was thankful that he was so understanding.

She reached for the hall\'s door and Nigel followed her.

Both of them walked towards Adeline and Theodore\'s private chamber. Nigel could tell that something was not right. He could hear his sister\'s heartbeat that was crossing the normal limit right now.

And judging by how Theodore had sent both of them out of the hall, he knew that whatever Adeline had to say to him was something that had to be hidden from the others. So he silently walked beside Adeline until they were inside the chamber.

And he finally asked with a curious look on his face, "Adeline? Tell me what\'s wrong?"
