Chapter 259 - The Temples - III



A small gasp felt her mouth, just a small breath of air, as her lips touched Adeline\'s forehead. A sudden chill washed all over her body and it was calming. Yet it freaked her out slightly because this was unnatural. 

"But who are you?" Adeline asked and wondered. 

The woman smiled once again. "You do not have to worry about my identity dear Adeline. But I will tell you, that you should have your courage on your sleeve." 

She lightly caressed the side of the Adaline\'s face. "Good night now, my dear."

*******

The moment her eyes opened, she closed the am hoping to get a few more seconds of sleep before her eyes snapped open and she threw the covers off of her. Without even sleeping her feet into the slippers she ran their feet across the room, opened the door and stepped out. 

The only thing stayed back at her was the woman dressed in the clothes provided by the temple. She was like the nun around here but the only difference was they were addressed as sisters because they did not have mates. 

"Is something the matter, Your Highness?" The sister appeared to be concerned about Adeline\'s sudden arrival and stepped closer. " Do you want me to go check inside?" 

Adeline glanced around the hallway where her room was but ended up shaking her head as she closed her eyes for a brief second. "No, I. . " she licked her lip and nibbled on it before shaking her head again, "nothing I am just gonna go back in. I am sorry for disturbing you." She gave a nervous smile and waved awkwardly before moving inside and closing the door. 

She leaned against it and breathed in and out to calm herself. Did last night really happen or was it just a dream? Adeline could swear that she felt the woman kiss her forehead but is that not what happened in dreams? You could feel being there physically as if everything was happening and reality. 

She shook her head. Maybe this was just a dream. . . 

She huffed. She was not sure. 

There was nothing concerning about any of it but whenever, as far as she remembered, anything bad happened in her dream, Adelene could always have the ability to run at least but this time she did not and it really concerned her. 

"Your highness?" A knocking came on the door and she jumped. 

"Y-yes?" She cleared her throat. It was the same sister. 

"Could you please hurry up and get dressed? The king cannot enter the premises meant for ladies until it is very important. We would appreciate it if you meet him outside." 

Adaline could understand what the woman meant which is why she immediately replied with a yes and gathered the new dress supplied to her yesterday. 

She opened the door while holding her clothes and the woman, sister, smiled towards her in gratitude before leaving but not before pointing out the directions to the sauna. 

Once again Adeline showered in hot water and before she knew it, she was dressed just as yesterday and was walking towards a grumpy looking Xavier. 

"What?" She asked as soon as she neared him. He could hear her even from a mountain apart but that was not the same in her case. 

"You were supposed to \'whisper\' my name when you woke up." He said in a rather dry voice. "I heard you taking a bath and talking with the sister but not my name, even once." 

She stayed at him, slightly narrowed her eyes before her eyes widened and she let a smile escape. 

"How is any of it funny to you?" He growled lowly making her smile even more. 

"Nope, nothing is," Adeline answered, shaking her head and trying to bite back the smile, "so when are the others coming?" 

"Others?" He whispered and looked away. Adelen frowned slightly at the behaviour. What was wrong with what she asked? 

"We came here to heal ourselves. We did not come here for their presence." He snapped and she flinched in shock. 

Adeline nervously looked around to see if anyone had heard them or not before closing her eyes at the realisation that, of course, everyone had caught on to each and every word. 

They were supernatural and she won\'t be surprised if people climbing towards the hill have also heard it. 

"Well, then," she whispered looking down at the snow, "what do we do?" 

He took a sharp intake of breath before answering here, "we have to meet with the priest after breakfast. It would be separate." 

"People do that here?" Because for Adeline by far she had not seen any priest here. 

He shrugged off, "not many do it. But since we are important figures, the priest offered." 

She nodded. 

Breakfast was a rather quick affair. Adelen ate her full not sure if you would be provided with snacks if he was hungry later. 

Without much delay any further the both walked to the temple biggest of them all and the most beautiful one. It stood out on its own. It was better in appearance than anyone else and one could tell that it was no less than the castle of a king. 

She stopped in front of the figure that stood above the entrance. 

"What\'s wrong?" She heard Xavier ask her, as he too, was looking at what she was looking at. 

She pointed to the figure. A statue of a woman made out of stone. "Who is she?" 

"Why?" He was quick to ask. 

"I think I have seen her somewhere," Adeline said as her eyes returned to the statue, "to be honest I saw her last night in the hall

way, I think." 

His head snapped down to look at her. "You think?" He huffed before walking inside the temple. "Hurry up, Penguin." He said as he looked from his shoulder. 

Adeline did move but not before staring at the statue of a woman once again. She was not sure if she was mistaken by the figure being carved out by stone. The features were similar and she wondered who she was.
