Marrying a Werewolf To Save Her Hybrid Sister. - Chapter 318
Rof was following the man who the princess introduced as her counselor. But he only used to wander inside the bazaars and buy some herbs.
The Alux was baffled by this man, it made his moves more suspicious. Changing his mind, he went to spy on the butler, that golden-hand man who used to do everything quietly.
As he guessed when the clock hit midnight Oliver sneaked out of the princess’s residence, wearing a black cloak. He looked at the glowing full moon then strode out of the palace, there another man brought him a horse.
Oliver headed out of the castle and arrived at a mansion. He dismounted and walked up the stairs, then he knocked on the door then a man came out.
“Why do you keep delaying?”
The man was slender and scanned around to see whether someone chased the butler or not.
“I never late!” He pushed him out of the way, went inside.
Rof crept inside and ambushed behind a vase.
“Did you bring the new essences that the princess sent?”
Another man came forward and asked from another corner. He approached with some more men.
Oliver put out a chest that was concealed under his cloak and handed it to the man beside him.
“This is enough for now, she will come to see you soon. There is a matter that you must take care of it.”
“Fine, she had kept us here, during the past week, has it any necessary reason?”
“Yes, wait for her to come.”
He turned back and left. Rof bit his lip, crap! Why didn’t he indicate a little bit more?
While cursing the butler he flashed out to see where the man would go. He got back to the castle but near the forest, the magician blocked his path.
The horse was scared and stood on the back hooves. Oliver clung on the horse not to slip.
“You rascal, what the hell are you doing?”
He yelled out and dismounted.
“We have unsettled issues, right?”
“Yes, I don’t like you, why do you strive to attract her attention.”
“Why do you care? We both want to fulfill her wishes, shouldn’t you care about this one!”
“Hm, then why do you try to get closer to her?”
“I don’t, I am trying to keep us safe, I realized that the king had asked Captain Bryant to capture our doves.”
Oliver coughed, this could send him to the grave if Bryant was going to catch the bird.
“Can you do something for the princess order? The child should not be…”
The magician was walking near the bushes when he stopped talking, it was rude that instead of listening to him, he was strolling around.
“Shush!”
The wizard said then bent on the bushes, struggling to catch something like a rat, he extended his hand and Oliver’s eyes widened. Heck! What was this?
Rof was stuck here, this man had magic and he could swear on it. As soon as he snatched him in a blink, he could not disappear. This magic was old and surrounded the air over Rof. Letting them know that he was working with Elizabeth meant trouble so he had to play a trick like what Elizabeth used to do.
He smelled candies in the butler’s pocket.
“What is this!”
“Candies, give me your candies!” He shouted it out variously. Showing rage like a wild animal.
“This is a faerie, an Alux! Do you have candies with you?”
Oliver searched his pocket, yes, he snatched some candies from the kitchen but he forgot to eat them.
“What the hell is it doing here?”
“To get those candies, Alux loves candies, perhaps this one had escaped the mines and has been wandering in our world.”
“Is it dangerous?”
The magician smirked widely.
“Let’s see, give me your candies.”
Oliver pouted, he took out two candies and put them in the hand of the man.
“No more!”
Simon took the Alux from the nape, pressing on his thin neck said, “I will give you candies but you have to be my slave!”
“More candies more tie!”
Rof’s idea worked, thanking what Ell taught him.
“What is going on?” Oliver asked, shouldn’t they kill this person who just heard him?
“Do you know that an Alux can be a great spy? They can move so fast, like light rays they can move around and survey.”
Oliver couldn’t believe what the man just said, bearing him was not imaginable, the princess might not be agreed with having a faerie around them.
The wizard gave the candies to that Alux and he thrust them into his small mouth hastily.
“Let’s get back.”
The wizard was so sure that Rof could not escape, he put him into the pocket of his robe and chuckled, “from now on, you are Candy! Alux!”
Rof was spelled so he could not move unless this man desired. He cursed inwardly, only his mind was working but his body was doing something else, even his joints were driving exactly the way this magician desired.
Oliver jumped on his horse and got back to the palace, going straight forward to the princess’ residence. Simon was already there waiting for him before the chamber’s door.
Asking for permission, the princess allowed them to walk inside.
“Milady, I gave the essence to them.”
“Fine, I’ll go to meet them when my father stopped stalking me.”
A maiden was brushing her hair, looking at her reflection inside the mirror, she gazed at her wizard who was avoiding appearing in front of the mirror.
“Josephine, you are done here.”
The maiden bowed and put the brush down on the table and quickly rushed out.
“What else?”
“We found a candy stalker on our way back here.”
The butler gazed at the wizard who brought a small creature out of his pocket.
Livia stood up, what the hell?
“What is th…”
“An Alux, a faerie that works in the mines to extract gems.”
Livia’s mouth ran wide, her black gown skirt swept behind her when she approached enough to take a better look.
Her expression ran like someone who was disgusted by the faerie’s queer face.
Rof was boiling in rage inwardly, Elizabeth never looked at him like this, instead of making him a slave, she called him a friend and didn’t punish him for taking words to William, her love had changed his life. But this wicked princess had the best of everything yet craving more.
“What do you think my lady? This Alux loves candies, give him candies and he can be a perfect spy that no one can discover!”
The wizard stated.
“How can we trust him?”
“I love candies, I am useful!”
Livia raised an eyebrow and steadied herself, this creature could speak!
“Fine, I’ll accept you. But if you disappoint me, I’ll put your head on your chest.”
“I won’t, my lady.”
Rof stated, drove his eyes on the dish of candy that the maiden forgot to take with her, a ray of light sparked in his eyes and as he assumed, the princess fell into the trap.
“Can you control it not to escape?”
The princess asked the man who was holding the Alux’s nape.
“Yes, there is a spell that only I can break.”
“Good, I leave it to you two. Prove me that you deserved this chance. Now leave. I must have some rest, I heard that someone spoke about Vivian and Lucas James’s suspicious death.”
She walked to her bed and sat at the edge.
“Do you want us to solve this!”
Oliver asked.
“No, I will handle this myself, no one will realize that I killed them.”
Rof could not breathe for a moment, she just confessed and he had nothing to record this situation. Pity! His heart ached for Elizabeth, how could he now inform her? Without this man’s permission, he wasn’t allowed to leave.
The wizard and the butler came out of the chamber and went to their rooms.
“My name is Simon,” he opened a cage door and tossed him inside, locked it, and put the key inside a small chest on his table.
“Would you give me candies?”
“It depends on how your work for me!” The man passed by the mirror and the light splashed on his figure, his young feature shaped in the mirror. He could not see his face but the man put the mirror down, turning back he peeked at Rof who rubbed his eyes off the man and fixed on the book.
Rof swallowed but his mouth was dry. He was terrified, what the heck had he just seen? If this man was an elf faerie, then why weren’t his ears like others? He was a young elf of the second generation, they were mortal elves and didn’t have many magicians, was he a hybrid with human magicians?
If the answer was yes, Elizabeth was in danger and should not stroll around because this man would catch her soon.
The man went to another room and changed his clothes then came back, closed the book.
“There’s a magic wand, made of unicorn horn. It can allow an Alux to learn magic and use it. I can teach you if you want.”
“Why should I learn magic? I just want candy.”
The man chuckled, crafty Alux, he was playing.
