She Belongs To The Devil

"Sister…" Reginald recalled what the dead body of his sister looked like. He recalled how he had promised her that he would avenge her.

"No! I can\'t die like this. This is not how I die!" Reginald dug his nails on the ground and scraped the dirt.

He frantically kept on digging his nails into the ground so as to stay sane and conscious. "I\'m not dying like this… Not before I fulfill my vow to Rebekah."

"Adeline?" Lilith was confused for a while but then she connected the dot. "You mean you have a shared bond with her?"

Theodore nodded his head and right after, he felt an ugly and sharp pain on his thigh again. Not just his thighs, he felt the pain spreading through his whole body.

"What do I do? How can I help you?" Lilith got up from the bed and asked Theodore.

Theodore was now on the floor, on all his fours. His body was covered in cold sweats. He felt Adeline\'s physical pain multiplied by several times. And to add to that, his heart was crazily hammering in his chest.

He was terrified.

He was terrified that something bad would happen to Adeline.

And when he was needed the most by Adeline, he couldn\'t even think properly to be able to teleport back to Earth.

"I need to…" Theodore took a heavy breath in and continued, "…get back to Adeline."

"Um…" Lilith nervously scratched her head and replied, "I can\'t freely go to Earth like you…"

Theodore was still struggling to even stand.

Lilith suddenly got an idea of how to make him go back to Earth on his own.

She did what she was best at. She started to provoke him in a mean voice, "Theodore… I didn\'t know you were this weak! It\'s laughable that that brat Vampire is able to hurt you without even touching you. I pity your wife though. I would have loved to be her friend but it looks like–"

"Don\'t you dare speak another word!" Theodore abruptly jumped on his feet and grabbed Lilith by her neck. He was looking at Lilith as if he was about to eat her alive.

"Ah! You can stand!" Lilith gave a smile and then said in a pretty serious tone, "I think you can leave my neck and go and save your wife now."

The wolf who was stabbed by the piece of Reginald\'s sword reverted back to his human form. He was already looking pale and was in a lot of pain.

The vampire who broke that wolf\'s back straddled the wolf. He sat on that wolf and grabbed the wolf by his cloth. And he threw a punch on that wolf\'s cheek as hard as he could.

The wolf\'s jaw broke from the impact and he screamed in pain. He tried to move his hands but discovered that one of his hands had been paralyzed already. He tried to move his legs but he couldn\'t feel both of his legs.

"Sasha!" The wolf screamed his friend\'s name and asked after getting punched again by that vampire, "A little help here, please!"

A black and brown wolf finished off the vampire she was fighting and then quickly came to save her friend.

The vampire got knocked away by that wolf.

The one who was half-paralyzed then slipped his hand in the pocket of his cloth. He pulled out a small pouch that he had pinned to his cloth and then took out the pill which Agnes had given to him before the war had begun.

He popped the pill in his mouth. And within no time, he was completely healed. He jumped up, as healthy and as fresh as ever before. He quickly shifted back to his wolf form and then dashed off to finish the vampire who had broken his back.

Reginald happened to witness all that. Though his vision had blurred and though he was feeling dizzy to the point where he wasn\'t able to clearly tell what was happening even though he was able to see clear images every once in a while, he had seen and understood one thing very clearly.

"That wolf ate something… it healed him completely in no time…" Reginald darted his eyes at other wolves to see if they were also carrying that small pouch.

He noticed a pouch swinging on one of the wolves\' cloth. He narrowed his eyes at that pouch and thought, "I need to run to that wolf and snatch that pouch."

He furrowed his brows and thought, "But how am I going to do that? I can\'t even move my body, leave alone run! Even if I did get that pill, will it work on me? What if it only works on those werewolves? Or what if that thing is dangerous to the vampires?"

He then glanced at his grey arm and then thought again, "I will be dead after a few minutes anyway. So what\'s the point of being scared? If that pill doesn\'t work on me then, at most, I will die a few minutes early."

Reginald aimed his eyes on that small pouch of that werewolf and was about to forcefully push himself up. But right then, his ears caught someone whispering, "…pill! Quick!" His ears perked up when he heard the word \'pill\'.

"I think it was that talking horse!" Reginald focused his ears so as to be sure and to know who had that pill.

And amidst all those battle cries and clanging of metals and whatnots, he caught Adeline\'s whisper, "I will kill- and- take a pill."

"So… she also has those magic pills?"

Adeline didn\'t care about the bleeding from her thighs. She wanted to finish Reginald off as soon as possible.

The Queen took the support of her sword and limped closer to where Reginald was lying, motionless.

She then raised her sword with the intention to kill.

"I surrender!" Reginald was facing down on the ground. He stretched out his arms and shouted again, "I surrender!"

Those with super-hearing and those who were around instantly stopped fighting and glanced towards King Reginald and at Queen Adeline.

"Does that mean the war is over?"

Adeline\'s arms were stuck midair, her sword aimed at Reginald\'s heart from the back.

And after she heard Reginald saying that he surrendered and after she saw some of the soldiers from both sides halting their fight, she didn\'t know whether to go through with her plan to kill that Vampire King or whether to drop her sword.

In that short window, Reginald had used the last bit of his energy to turn on his back.

"Ha!" Reginald scoffed and flung a handful of dirt in Adeline\'s eyes.

And he shouted, "Fooled you!" and immediately pulled the pouch where Adeline had kept her pills.

Reginald tore off the pouch and gulped down both the pills in a flash.
