---- It was obvious they had known each other for a while.
It was time to escape.
If Thesio caught me, he wouldnt hesitate to silence me forever.
We retreated the same way we came and bolted into the forest.
We had plenty of time.
My wolf was faster than his horse.
However, someone intercepted our path.
"Well, well, look at what the Moon Goddess left abandoned in this cursed realm." Floating above us, the vampires feet touched the grass right in front of my wolf's snout.
She frantically looked around for an escape, fear gripping her.
Now, up close, I could feel he was a much older and more powerful supernatural being than us.
"Tsk, tsk, dont be foolish and try to run.
Didnt you want to meet me? Isnt that why you followed the Duke?" He dismantled all my plans in an instant.
"I knew you were awake and that you were a creature of the night." Through my wolfs pupils, I saw him, his cold gaze piercing through me.
"Theres no time to talk now.
Ill be waiting for you tomorrow at a location.
Come alone," he added, crouching to my wolfs height.
she growled at him instinctively.
Relax, future Duchess.
I have a feeling we'll get along just fine, and you seem like an intelligent woman." ---- His cold fingers suddenly scratched at my animal snout, freezing me in place.

"T think you already realize that if you dont want Duke Thesio to discover you sooner or later, youll need an ally to help you eliminate the problem." Smart.
Too smart and cunning.
Why would a man like him take orders from a mere elemental? He needed something from Thesio, and when he helped me, he would demand his price from me instead.
At last, he stood up and dusted off his hands.
"Hurry up.
Hes already heading back to the castle.
I'll be waiting for you tomorrow at the Blue Mountain Tavern and, Duchess..." Our gazes locked intensely.
His aura turned oppressively heavy in an instant, overwhelming my small wolf.
"First rule of this partnership if you betray me, youre dead meat.
With that grim warning, he vanished right before my eyes.
A thin mist lingered where he stood, drifting into the night sky and dissolving into the air.
"He's terrifying...
Are you really going to conspire with that man against the Duke?" "Looks like we dont have many other options," I muttered ---- sarcastically.
"Come on, dont waste time.
Run fast, we need to climb back up before Thesio arrives." Turged my wolfs paws forward, making it back just minutes ahead of him.
Quickly, we dressed and climbed the vines up to the terrace.
"Get down!" My animal instincts warned just as the horse appeared in the vast garden.
I threw myself to the ground immediately, heart pounding wildly.
