She Belongs To The Devil

A small wood faery sneakily flew out of the Palace barrier.

The barrier was not meant to stop the supernatural beings from entering or exiting. It was only meant to bar the sorcerers after the incident with Lillian took place during the time of the war.

So there was no problem for that faery who was the size of a thumb to go in and out of the Palace without being noticed by anyone.

The aura that the faery gave out was next to nothing. And if one wasn't particularly looking for them, the faeries were easy to miss.

And she was perfect to be a spy because her hair, as well as her clothes, were the color of the forest. She would easily be able to hide in a tree.

After getting out of the Palace, the wood faery flew towards the Ethereal River. As her wings were too small, it took quite some time for that faery to reach her destination.

She wiped her sweat from her forehead and glanced at the river in front of her. "Ah! Finally! It was quite an adventure infiltrating the Devil's territory like that. I hope they will never ask me to do that again."

She took a deep breath in and then headed straight towards a huge pebble that was at the bank of that river. When she reached on top of that pebble, she tapped her foot and then called out, "Hello! Is anyone home?"

"Argh! So noisy! Who's it?" A grumpy voice came from under that pebble.

"I'm Fayette." She moved away from that pebble and then waited.

Soon, a grumpy-looking water faery emerged from under the pebble. Her hair, brows, and lashes were all the color of the ocean. She was also as short as the wood faery.

And she asked, "What do you want? It better be a good reason. Else I don't forgive anyone who disturbs my sleep."

The wood faery softly cleared her throat and then answered, "I have some information for His Highness."

The grumpy faery suddenly became serious the moment she heard that the wood faery had some information. She cleared her throat and then asked, "What is it?"

The wood faery looked around to make sure that no one was around them. Even if there were someone around, they would probably not notice those tiny faeries.

And after making sure that no one was listening to their conversation, the wood faery whispered in the water faery's ear, "You will not believe what I saw today. Princess Ariel also has an affinity to Earth." She then explained the incident that she saw with her own two eyes.

The water faery covered her mouth and glanced at the wood faery with questioning eyes. "Are you sure that is what you saw? Because if we relay the message to His Highness and if it turns out to be false then we both will be thrown into the reincarnation cycle."

The wood faery placed her palm over her heart and then swore, "I am very positive. So will you please pass the message along?"

The water faery inhaled a deep breath and then nodded her head. "I will pass it on to the snow faery. I will make the preparation right away."

And without exchanging further words, the water faery dived inside her burrow so that she could wear warm clothes for her journey.

The wood faery sneered and then flew away while mumbling, "Why has our master appointed that grumpy lady for such an important task? She doesn't even know how to say 'thank you for the information' or 'sorry for getting mad at you for no reason'! Tsk!"

Adeline carried Ariel in her arms and took her in front of the mirror so that her baby could check her reflection.

Ariel grabbed her skirt and then spread it on one end. She flapped her skirt and giggled. And she began to sing, "I'm a fluffy cloud… I'm a fluffy cloud…"

However, their mother and daughter time was disturbed by a knock on the door.

"Clouds!" Ariel excitedly turned towards the door thinking that Osanna had brought her the edible cloud that she had promised.

However, she was disappointed when she heard the announcement of a guard, "Your Majesty, Prince Edwin and his family are here to see the Princess."

"Let them in," Adeline replied and then walked towards the door.

As soon as the door opened, Edwin shouted in a worried voice, "Adeline, we heard what happened to Ariel. How is…"

His eyes fell on the shiny little Princess and he felt a little relieved to see that she wasn't crying. Joyce had told him that Ariel was crying a lot and he was worried thinking Ariel might have gotten some internal injuries. However, unlike what he had thought, Ariel looked perfectly fine and refreshed.

"Our little Princess is fine, isn't she?" Adeline pinched Ariel's cheeks and then asked her.

"Mmm…" Ariel smiled and gave a nod.

"That's a relief then," Edwin walked inside the room and then held out his hands for Ariel.

Juniper and Joyce also entered the room. Both of them were also relieved after seeing Ariel.

Ariel smiled and went into Edwin's arms. She placed her tiny palms on Edwin's cheeks and then teased her uncle, "Uncle Eddin was crying."

Edwin chuckled and shook his head, "I was not crying. Why would your uncle Eddin cry?"

Ariel then pressed her palm on her chest and put on an act, "Because Ary baby is hurt." And she even fake coughed a few times.

Adeline was pressing her lips together, trying to contain her laughter. Joyce got serious again thinking that Ariel was hurt for real. And Juniper was smiling after seeing that cute act of the Princess.

"Oh! My dear Ary baby is hurt huh." Edwin pretended to believe Ariel and went with the flow, "Then I must ask a healer to prepare some bitter medicine so that you can heal faster."

"Ahhhhh…" Ariel let out a scream and instantly denied, "No, no. No bitter medicine. Baby was lying." She fisted on her hips and then added, "Baby is strong."

The room was filled with laughter when a messenger knocked on the door again.

He then relayed the message to Adeline, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has asked you to meet at the courtyard."

"I will go there," Adeline dismissed the messenger and then turned to look at Edwin and asked him, "Brother, I have a few things to take care of. Will you stay here with Ariel until I come back?"

Edwin agreed without hesitation, "Sure. Finish what you have to do."

"Momma is leaving?" Ariel asked in a sad voice.

Adeline smiled and said, "I will be back soon with your dada and Azizi."

"Azizi is also here?" Ariel got excited and asked, "Come back soon then."

Up in the Heaven realm, the almighty was keenly observing everything that was happening inside and around the Wyverndale Palace.

No matter how small those faeries were, there was no escaping God's all-seeing eyes.

He rubbed his chin and then thought to himself, "Maybe it is time for me to step in. I cannot endanger my precious grandchild. I don't want her to get even a scratch."

However, he felt a little nervous because he had not met Theodore and Adeline after what he did to them on that final day of the war. He had not been able to face them again after almost killing Theodore by attacking him.

Still, he tried to rationalize why he needed to head to Earth. "I cannot break my promise to Adeline. She is not that happy right now, is she? Especially Theodore. I can sense his Devil side overtaking him. I'm just going to keep my promise to them."
