She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 471: Whatever!

"Now leave!" Nigel turned on his heels and started to walk towards the camp.

He was expecting that after getting that slap and scolding from him, the two pups would tuck their tails between their legs and run back to Aberdeen.

However, he was very wrong to have thought that.

The two of them were raised in a strict environment, under the constant watch of their alpha and the elders. They didn't have much freedom in their life. They didn't have time or permission to go around exploring new things and events.

And now that the two of them were already there, both of them were determined to watch as well as participate in this epic war between the three completely different deviant forms of humans – werewolves, vampires, and witches.

They wanted to see the epic battle with their own eyes.

"Do you want to go back?" Wulfric asked Fenris with a tone that begged to let him stay.

Fenris gave a side glare to Wulfric and replied, "Well, I am not going back without you." He made it sound as though he didn't want to stay back when he was equally eager as Wulfric to fight.

"Tsk!" Wulfric sneered because he could clearly tell his brother's true intention even though he didn't say it outright. "Okay then, let's kill some vampires tomorrow."

The Crown Prince smirked and added, "I can't wait to see how they look like and how they taste like."

Fenris also gave a sly smirk and said, "And I can't wait to see the shocked expression on their faces when they realize that they have been played."

So they timidly and slowly started to follow Nigel.

And Nigel stopped on his track again and sighed after hearing their footsteps a little far behind him. He was listening to their conversation and he knew that they were here to stay.

"Why are they so stubborn?" he clenched his fists and jaw in frustration.

Nigel didn't even know what else he could do to make them return to Aberdeen. Nothing was getting through their thick skin and single-minded brain, not words, neither slaps. But he still didn't have any intention to give in to their stubbornness.

Aberdeen only had two heirs and he was in no way going to let them stay in the middle of the war zone that would soon be overrun by the vampires.

Nigel abruptly turned around to face his cousins again and shouted with a growl, "Seriously? Quit following me!"

Wulfric was startled by that sudden aggression. He jumped behind Fenris and hid behind his brother fearing that Nigel would slap him again.

Fenris sneered and whispered to Wulfric, "And you were saying that you didn't need any protection."

"Shut up!" Wulfric poked Fenris and asked him to speak their case.

Fenris cleared his throat and asked Nigel while stuttering, "It's almost midnight. And we both have been running for the whole day to reach here. Can't we at least rest for the night?"

Nigel scoffed at how easily Fenris had lied to him. He ran close to the fools and flicked as hard as he could on Fenris' forehead, "Did you forget that I also happen to have a super hearing?"

"Aah!" Fenris rubbed his forehead and this time, honestly replied, "Brother, I know it hasn't been long since I turned. But I have received the training from you and Rhea, and from Theodore as well. So I am pretty confident that I can handle myself."

Fenris leaned his head backward and hit Wulfric on the head. And he said, "And I know that this brat is also capable enough to slay those vampires with ease."

Nigel was ready to shout again so Fenris quickly proposed a middle ground, "But if you still feel uncomfortable about having us in the middle of the battlefield, then we will stay back and guard the camps. Someone has to stay back and protect the injured and the healers, right?"

"What are you saying?" Wulfric was continuously pinching Fenris on his back for saying that.

But Fenris disregarded that and asked Nigel, "We will stay close to the camp. How about we do that? Will you let us stay?"

Nigel kept on glaring at his cousins for a while. And without saying a word, he took off his shirt and threw it at Wulfric. Then he turned around and began to head towards the camp again.

Wulfric gave a questioning glance to Fenris while tying the shirt around his waist. "What do we do?" he asked in a whisper.

And Fenris, in turn, shouted and asked Nigel, "So… are you inviting us or…"

"It's not like you two are going to listen to me anyway." Nigel waved off his hand and said in a monotone, "Do whatever you want. But if you two do decide to stay then I will make sure that both of you will be punished after the war for every trouble that you've caused."

Fenris and Wulfric shared a wide grin with each other and swiftly ran to catch up with Nigel.

Nigel didn't even turn around to give them a second glance. He went straight to his tent and lay down on his mattress.

He could hear the two of them mumbling outside his tent.

"Where do we sleep? Shall we look around for empty tents?" Wulfric asked Fenris.

Fenris was equally confused as Wulfric. "I doubt that there are any empty tents... Maybe we should just transform and sleep right here. At least the furs will keep us warm."

Nigel would have loved to arrange the tents for them if they had not been complete arseholes. So just to let them know that he was still mad at them, he didn't even put in the effort into making them feel welcome.

But the two of them didn't need anyone to make them feel welcome. They welcomed themselves and what more? They invaded Nigel's tent.

"Let's just sleep with Nigel. It's just one night." Wulfric suggested while opening the tent.

Nigel had just closed his eyes when he felt the two of them snuggling behind him.

"Move a little bit. I am sleeping on the floor," Wulfric whispered in as low a voice as he could to Fenris.

And Fenris also replied in an exasperated whisper, "I will be sleeping on Nigel if I shift any further.  I don't want to get slapped or kicked out of the tent. Just adjust yourself."

Nigel didn't have any energy left to scold the brats or to ask someone to prepare the tent for the Princes. So he shifted a little towards the edge of the mattress and just let them be.

Fenris couldn't help but smile at that small yet considerate gesture from Nigel. He happy shifted closer to Nigel so that Wulfric would stop making noise and let everyone sleep in peace.

No matter how angry Nigel was at his brothers, their presence had somewhat made him feel less nervous about what was about to go down tomorrow.

"Well, I guess this is for the best," Nigel thought to himself and let out a quiet sigh. "I just hope both of them will behave themselves and stay out of the trouble."

Without even realizing it, Nigel fell asleep and wandered off to his dreamland.
