"What do you mean by that?" The duchess asked her green eyes slowly changing color to a dim red.
Relax wife. Don't forget, you are a vampire not a werewolf, a werewolf is fatal for vampires. Duke Clad said patiently the moment he sensed his wife was about to bring out her vampiric abilities to light. The duchess closed her eyes tightly to calm the burning rage before finally opening her eyes.
"What do you think we should do? " Do you know what it means for werewolves to be roaming round the neighborhood where humans and vampires are?" The duchess asked her eyes changing red once again.
I know. But we can't just lounge an attack on them. That is suicidal. Duke Clad tried to reason with his wife.
What? Are you seriously asking us to sit still while those useless wolves causes fear? You know what, I will be visiting the prince kingdom tonight. The duchess said firmly brewing no room for arguments.
"My lady, my apologies for sounding rude, but you are acting irrational and your irrationality coukd cost lives; most especially innocent lives. We need to sit, think and strategize on how to send them back to the wolves land. " The man who had spoke about spotting werewolves said in a calm and respectful manner to avoid been disrespectful to the duchess.
Alright then. I will stop acting irrational, but no one will stop me from going to his highness kingdom. The duchess said with a firm and determined tone.
Okay okay, but be careful. I will send some of my soldiers to accompany you. Duke clad said, knowing his wife and her stubborn attitude.
Brady walked in, covered in blood, his shirt torn from various stitches.
Oh my Brady, what happened to you?The duchess asked with a worried frown.
Got attacked by a wolf. He said calmly, but don't worry, it was only a scratch. He said and slumped on the couch.
Oh my. I think we need prince Luacs here. Duke clad suggested.
"No way, he will bring that accursed wife of his. I told you that something isn't right about that human. She doesn't look human". The duchess said coldly.
Since the moment the prince's wife stepped foot into their kingdom, the once peace and quiet and clean place was slowly beginning to cover in blood and destruction which she has been trying to prevent for years is beginning to get ruptured slowly by some unwanted and uninvited stranger that claims to be the wife of Prince Lucas.
"How sure are you she is the cause ?" Duke clad asked irritably beginning to get pissed off at his wife for thinking something like that about the prince wife. She was supposed to be happy the prince is finally married, he finally has someone that could tame his beast mode. But no, she is busy blaming the wife of the prince.
"How do you think Prince Lucas will feel if he hears how you are disrespecting his wife?" He finally asked and The duchess only rolled her eyes at her husband gullibility.
"Fine then, I won't call her names again, but mark my words ,that girl isn't just a human. " The duchess said and walked away without waiting to hear what her husband would say.
In Eldrida kingdom ,
In Prince Lucas garden, Brody was covered in blood, while Mason helped him cleaned his wound , by applying a wet napkin in a warm water and placing it on the wound.
Crew and Jaxon and few other soldiers of Lucas were in the garden too.
Brody was busy explaining to his pals, the soldiers about the attack some monstrous beasts had launched on them.
"What?" Seriously? A monstrous beasts attacked you and her Highness? Jaxon was the most shocked. He never thought the moment his highness and then leave Calanthor kingdom, they will be attacked.
Just as Crew was about to talk,
They heard the rest of the soldiers Bowing and greeting someone. The prince and his wife.
"Your highness"! They all bowed in greeting.
Catherine didn't say anything as she didn't know what to say. Her mind was slowly focused on Brody.
Luacs motioned for the rest of the soldiers to move back with his eyes ,and they all stepped black giving the princess space to walk towards Brody.
Brody tried to stand up and bow.
"I'm sorry my lady for failing to protect y––"
You protected me so well. She cut him off with her voice a bit high surprising both herself and everyone around her , most especially Lucas, he knew his wife was very shy and timid but only courageous when it comes to her being curious.
"You really protected me, I came to say thank you". She said and the soldiers were all amused.
"You don't need to than––"
I will and I will always thank you all, most especially every one for standing by my husband even though you all know the rumor surrounding him. Thank you so much for standing by him, if not for you all, I wouldn't have had this courage of facing him and talking to him freely. She said softly, her eyes lurked with tears. While they were coming to the garden, she had thought and thought through on why she always fear her husband when his own soldiers doesn't fear him, but yet she couldn't find a valid reason to hate him. Since the beginning of their marriage, he had always treated her right and fairly, but yet she keeps on getting scared of him which wasn't fear on his part.
There was a long while of silence as Luacs didn't know what to say. His eyes remained glued on his wife, to the woman he was slowly falling for. He didn't reveal his expression as he remained rooted to the ground.
Even the soldiers were also stunned. They never expected something like this from a princess who they suspected to be fearing the prince to say such a heartfelt words filled with warmth. Even if they couldn't see the prince's face, they knew he was greatly pleased and they couldn't any grateful for the kind of wife the prince married. A true wife, a soulmate for the prince. They all thought.
