She Belongs To The Devil

When Theodore got inside the water, his fatigue diminished and his energy instantly started to get replenished. He also had a few hairline fractures at his back ribs. They also healed in no time.

And when Theodore felt fresh and revitalized, he thought of getting out of the water.

However, before he could even move a muscle or open his eyes, his mind traveled to the future.

In his vision, he was walking down the path that led to the beautiful garden of the Palace. And when he reached the garden, he saw a sight that made him bubble with immense joy.

He saw a small girl playing in the garden. She looked like she was around three years old. And he didn't need to think or ask whose child she was. He recognized her in an instant because of her facial features.

Her face looked like a mix of him and Adeline. She had amber eyes that were identical to his. Her nose and cheeks looked like that of Adeline while the perfectly proportioned lips were similar to his, and so was her jawline.

And her hair that fell down to her shoulders was the major giveaway that she was their child. She had a patch of silver hair at the front of her head while the rest of her hair was shiny black.

And Theodore asked himself, "Could she be any more perfect?"

And as if to prove to Theodore that she was the epitome of perfection, that child turned her head towards Theodore and gave a wide smile to him. She had a most beautiful dimple on the right side of her cheek when she smiled.

She got up on her tiny feet and ran towards Theodore while shouting, "Dada… baby missed you."

"Aww… my baby must have missed me a lot." Theodore spoke in a very loving and soft voice and spread his arms for his daughter, "Come here, baby. Let dada kiss my beautiful girl."

Theodore picked up his daughter in his arms and showered her with kisses. "I missed my baby as well."

"I missed you more," his daughter put her tiny arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder.

And Theodore felt his heart melting from that warmth of his daughter. Her tiny hands around his neck felt like the best thing in the whole universe. His eyes teared up a little while he hugged the lovely creation of him and his wife.

He suddenly felt very protective of the little angel who was in his arms. He then thought, "Adeline, we did it. We made the most beautiful child of our own…  I can't wait to hold her for real."

Theodore then heard a chuckle from behind him. He turned around to see his beautiful wife who looked like she hadn't aged a day. "Hey honey, did you miss me?" he asked teasingly.

Adeline shook her head and laughed again. And she caressed her hand on their baby's hair and said, "Theo, you were gone for just an hour!"

"That's not an excuse for you to not miss me," Theodore narrowed his eyes on Adeline and leaned in for a kiss.

Adeline lifted herself on her heels and gave a quick peck to Theodore. And she teasingly replied to her husband, "I was busy answering your daughter's questions. She asked me at least 7 times when you were coming back. So I didn't have much free time to miss you."

Their daughter immediately cupped her palm on her mouth and whispered in Theodore's ear, "Mom is lying. She was missing you more."

"More than you?" Theodore looked at his daughter and raised his brows.

"Nah-uh," she took a peek at Adeline and shook her head "Not more than me." But then she looked back at Theodore and blinked her eyes to gesture that she was lying.

Both Theodore and Adeline burst into laughter. They both knew their daughter was too smart for her age.

Theodore then suddenly heard Adeline's voice echoing in his ear. He wanted to stay in his vision for a little longer. But Adeline was calling out his name so worriedly that he sat up at once.

He inhaled sharply and opened his eyes to see his wife's worried face in the present.

"Theo, are you alright? Or do you need to lie down in the water for a while?" Adeline looked into Theodore's eyes and asked.

But to her surprise, Theodore pulled her into a tight hug. And then he whispered to her, "You won't believe what I just saw."

Adeline hugged Theodore back and rested her chin on his shoulder. She sighed and asked, still a little worried, "Did you get a vision?"

"Yes," Theodore pulled away from the hug and then cupped Adeline's cheeks. And he excitedly shared what he saw, "Oh, Adeline. I had never seen such a wonderful vision ever before. I saw our future with our cute little daughter."

"Really?" Adeline raised her brows and asked in an excited whisper, "We are going to have a daughter?"

"Yes. She looked like both of us. I got to hold her in my arms… and oh, dear… I had never felt that kind of exhilarating feeling ever before." Theodore leaned in to give a sweet kiss to Adeline and excitedly declared, "I can't wait to welcome our little one to this world."

"Me too. I also want to hold her in my arms." Adeline said with a smile on her lips and tears in her eyes. She jokingly punched Theodore on his chest and said, "It's not fair that you got to hold her before me though."

Theodore laughed and said, "I didn't hold her for real. You will be the one to hold her before me in real, alright?"

Adeline grinned and nodded her head.

Theodore then got up from the water and pulled Adeline up as well. He darted his eyes at the door to his old bedroom and said to Adeline, "I want to get a good sleep for a while. My mind is still befuddled. Shall we both take a nap before returning back to the Palace?"

Adeline pressed her lips into a thin line and denied it even though she really wanted to sleep next to her husband. "I think I will pass. I want to go and see Nigel. I have to inform the werewolves that we won the whole war."

Theodore gave a nod to Adeline and asked, "Can you go there by yourself? Or do you need me to drop you to Aberdeen first?"

Adeline shook her head. "I think I got the hang of teleportation. Let me try and see if I can do it this time though."

Adeline took in a deep breath and closed her eyes. However, she opened them instantly because she heard a rumbling growl echoing throughout the cave.
