Chapter 36 - 'Your Grace'

Just then they saw Lenora and Serene entering the hall together. She could hear Serene teasing her.

Looks like her brother gifted Adira a necklace, which she gracefully accepted it and adorned it. Lenora saw Adira looked beautiful in her midnight blue long gown. It wasn't extravagant or too simple. Just with right beauty and elegance that complimented her beauty. It's a long dark midnight blue tulle dress that reached the floor. It's an A-line silhouette dress with a sweetheart neckline. And her tight corset accentuated her upper body curves showing her well-grown breasts cup size while revealing her slim waist. Even though Adira felt suffocated, she just grits her teeth till she finishes her breakfast. The dress was decorated with pleat slashes and with a small bow belt attached to the waistline with a lace-up hemline. She wore a simple lower bun grazing her hair with beautiful pearls. Her face was beatified with minimal make-up and light red lipstick. She looked so simple yet beautiful. Even Lenora herself was mesmerized by her beauty.

She won't be surprised if her brother gets whipped by her. Lenora smiled to herself as she saw this adorable little werewolf. She wanted to see how Adira would look if he she shifts into a werewolf. Surely, she would look very cute.

Just then she noticed her brother already approached them. Adira who was talking with her mother didn't notice what's happening around her as she was so engrossed in defending herself from her teasing mom.

Adira turned around to walk into the dining hall after she was tired by putting some sense into her head. She felt exasperated. When she turned around to walk away, she bumped into a wall.

Wait.

From where does this wall come?

She was sure there wall no wall earlier. Did anybody cast a spell?

That shall be impossible.

"How come there is a wall here all of a sudden?" she mumbled slowly.

Lenora wanted to laugh at her little cute sister-in-law. Well, after all she was only twenty one.

Rubbing her forehead as Adira lifted her eyes to take a look at the sudden magical wall, she saw someone that made her eyes widen.

"Ouch," she said slightly.

"My Lady, Would you like to join the table?" Zaros asked with amusement in his voice.

Adira cast her eyes downwards biting her lips for the embarrassment she made.

"Way to ruin the day again," she murmured in her low voice.

"Did you say something, My Lady?" Zaros pretended not to hear her.

"Nope," she said shaking her head.

All the Vampires in the room heard her words. Lenora felt her sister-in-law was too cute.

Zaros pulled a chair for her beside him. Adira just accepted his actions and sat down.Serene joined the table, she settled herself beside the Queen Eudora.

Soon, maids started serving food. Vampires were served with blood in the wine glasses along with the food.Adira started eating her food silently. Uff… she was so embarrassed today that she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself.

Finishing her food, she excused herself to her wing.

"My Lady," She heard his voice.

Uff… Adira heard the Himalayas in the human world were the frozen mountains. She wondered if they have melted at his voice.

[Aww… I am melting.] Leia, Adira's wolf said.

[Even me.] Adira replied to her wolf.

[My heart…. Uff… it is running like it was in a race.] Leia said.

[Let's turn around.] Adira said still trying to calm her fast-beating heart.

Looking at him with her shy lashes, she found him with a smirk that stole her heartbeat.

"My Lord," she said in a firm voice trying to show she wasn't affected.

"I heard you have a special garden. Can I take a look?" he asked with the same lopsided smirk.

That smirk… as handsome as looked on his handsome face, showed how dangerous he was.

"I am afraid, it would be inappropriate, My Lord," Adira said.

"It's 'Your Grace', My Lady," Adira heard Darick Melchoir's voice.

"The smelly elder is here," she mumbled under her breath only to be heard by Zaros. He smiled at her words. This girl was something.

"My Apologies, Your Grace," Adira said with an extremely guilty face. Zaros have to stifle his laughter at her sarcastic actions. This woman…. She was a real entertainer.
