She Belongs To The Devil

Hawisa and Osanna immediately began to prepare the future Queen of Wyverndale for the busy day ahead of her. They had always let Adeline bathe and dress on her own. But today, they were not going to let Adeline meet all the dignitaries looking like a male warrior. They were going to make sure to prepare her to look her best.

No matter how many times Adeline begged the two of them to let her clean herself up, they barged inside the bathhouse saying there was nothing on Adeline which they had not seen already. Feeling defeated, Adeline got inside the bathtub full of aromatic herbal water and rested her head on the edge of the bathtub. Then she closed her eyes and let her maids bathe her.

Hawisa and Osanna scrubbed every nook and cranny of Adeline's body. After making sure that she was clean, they helped her dry and then led her to her bedroom as if she was still a toddler.

They repeated the beauty treatment which they had given her on her sixteenth birthday. They wanted to make sure that every nobles and villager would be enchanted by the beauty of their Queen-to-be.

They especially wanted the villagers to see the feminine side of Adeline because they had heard rumors regarding the villagers' perception of the Princesses. It was said that they believed all the daughters of the King looked very masculine because of the intense training that they had gone through since they were kids.

And they wanted to prove those villagers wrong by making them drop on their knees unable to handle the beauty of Adeline.

After taking care of the beauty routine, they helped Adeline dress up in a beautiful light blue colored gown with white lace around the neck and sleeves.

Hawisa glared at the chest area for quite some time, making Adeline a little uncomfortable. "Hawisa, is something wrong?" Adeline looked down on her chest to check what she was glaring at. "Are you staring at this chain? I think it will suit in this gown."

Hawisa bit her lips and kept on glaring for some more time. And she said while making a round gesture over Adeline's chest, "If only they were a bit bigger… Your gown would have looked so much fuller. It's a shame that they are the size of small apples. But I think its size will increase later. They say the more your husband loves you, the bigger it will get." She chuckled and added, "I can't say if it is true or not though."

Adeline scoffed at that bold statement from Hawisa. "What are you saying? I am satisfied with what I have. I don't need it to get any bigger. It is easier to fight if they are small, big ones will just get in the way."

Osanna chuckled from behind and said, "I don't think your future husband would agree with you. I have heard that men like it bigger so that they can use it as pillows for their fragile head."

Both Hawisa and Osanna chuckled while covering their mouth with their palms. They were enjoying pulling Adeline's leg.

Adeline felt her cheeks and ears burning up. And she shouted at her maids while pouting her soft lip, "Stop teasing me! Why are you two talking like you are preparing me for my marriage? I am not getting married today. I am just meeting a bunch of people and later some villagers. Just make me look decent."

"Alright, sorry! No more jokes," Hawisa said while still chuckling.

Osanna made Adeline's hair look as though it was a waterfall shining under the bright moonlight. Hawisa added some colors on her lips, eyes, and her cheeks to make them look more prominent. Adeline dabbed a very fragrant perfume on her neck and her wrists. She was smelling like vanilla mixed with coconut.

Outside her private chamber, several other maids and servants had already prepared the meeting room for the greeting ceremony that was about to begin soon. They had exchanged all of her old chairs and tables with new ones. Her chair now looked more like a throne rather than just a normal chair.

Hawisa and Osanna carefully led Adeline to the meeting room. She was looking like a blue Delphinium flower as she strolled towards the meeting room. Adeline sat down elegantly on her 'throne' and then gestured her maids to begin the greeting ceremony.

The first person to come and greet Adeline was Queen Claricia. Nigel, Rhea, and Fenris had also tagged along with her. They were the ones who were genuinely happy for Adeline.

"Oh, dear, look at you! You look so pretty in this dress." Claricia hugged Adeline and placed a kiss on her forehead. "Adeline dear, I am so happy for you. And I am happy that Wyverndale will be in your care in the future."

Rhea also hugged Adeline and wished her luck for the future. And Fenris congratulated her while maintaining a safe distance from her. Nigel practically squeezed his sister while hugging her because he was happy for her from the bottom of his heart. As the schedule was packed, they left the quarter within five minutes.

After that, Queen Vultrada came to congratulate Adeline. Since her daughters Margery and Muriel had already disappointed her, she tried to play nice and gain favor from the future Queen.

Then turn by turn, the concubines of King Dragomir came to Adeline's quarter to congratulate Adeline and wish her good luck for her future.

Queen Lillian came to congratulate Adeline when the time for the greeting ceremony was about to be over. She gave a mirthless smile to Adeline and said in a pretentious way, "I am very happy for you, Princess Adeline. I hope that you have a very successful future ahead. Long live, the Future Queen." And she stormed out of the room without even waiting to hear Adeline's reply.

Adeline narrowed her eyes as Lillian walked away and cursed inside, "I will live long enough to make you suffer, Lillian. You should start counting your days."

General Osmond was unable to wait until another day to congratulate Adeline so he was storming towards Adeline's quarter. When he was near the quarter, he crossed the path with his sworn enemy, Lillian. He gave a sly smirk to Lillian as if to taunt her and he walked away without bowing to that venomous witch.

Lillian scoffed at that courage of Osmond and whispered under her breath, "Even the bugs are disrespecting me now. Maybe I should have finished him along with his daughter that day."

When the maid at the door announced that General Osmond was coming, Adeline jumped out of her chair. And as soon as the General walked in, she sprinted and hugged him. "Teacher, thank you so much for teaching me everything."

General Osmond's eyes teared up with pride. He felt as though his own daughter had accomplished something great.. "Thanks to you too, for making me proud."
