Capítulo 40: Drake's plan failed

Dorian slowly walked down the stairs and approached Drake. "Hi, Drake."

"Uh..." Drake frowned and anxiously looked around. "W-What are you doing here?" He didn't expect that Dorian would reach out to Elizabeth so soon. This endangered his plan to use Elizabeth as a leverage against Dorian.

"It's been a while." Dorian sniffed the air as he sensed the demonic scent. "Woah! Are you a demon?!"

"Uh..." Drake was speechless. He couldn't believe that Dorian noticed his race despite him hiding his demonic mana. "What... What are you talking about?"

"I can smell it!~" Dorian chuckled as he walked closer to Drake. "You can hide your mana. But you can't hide your scent."

Drake frowned and glanced at Elizabeth. She didn't seem surprised by the revelation.

"What are you doing here?" Dorian asked bluntly. He finally stopped hiding his displeasure.

"I wanted to apologize." Drake bowed his head respectfully. "For not helping you."

Dorian sighed. "If that's all, you can leave." He placed his hand on Drake's shoulder and muttered. "You're just a stranger to me. I never expected you to help me."

"I know." Drake nodded sadly. "Even so, I want to apologize."

"Whatever." Dorian shrugged dismissively. He gazed at Drake coldly and spoke again. "You should leave. Before... you try something stupid." Dorian revealed his teeth again as his eyes started absorbing the light.

'He knows.' Drake realized as Dorian released incredible killing intent towards him. 'How does he know?!'

Dorian chuckled evilly. "What's wrong? Weren't you planning to kidnap Elizabeth and use her as a bargain chip?!"

Elizabeth stiffened. "D-Drake? What is he talking about?" She slowly stood up and backed away from the table, and hid behind Dorian.

Drake clenched his fists. "How did you know?!" he yelled, furious. "Answer me!"

"A little birdie told me," Dorian replied, clenching his fists as well and walking over to Drake. "He told me lots of information about what the future held. We even made a deal!~"

"I-Is he a psychic?" Drake stuttered, thinking about people who can see the future events before they happened.

Dorian smirked, as he wasn't going to reveal that it was Lucas who told him about their plans. "I don't have any reason to tell you that."

Lucas explained about what he read in the novel and how things were slightly off. He also added that Drake and Thomas might try to kidnap Elizabeth and use her to their leverage. As Lucas survived despite making a deal, that meant that Lucas told the truth.

"How could you?!" Elizabeth glared at Drake. "You wanted to use me to harm the love of my life?!"

"To save your life." Drake shook his head. "And his." he pointed his finger at Dorian. "This is the only way we won't have to fight."

"For what? WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO FIGHT HIM?!" Elizabeth snapped. "Are you insane?"

Drake hesitated. He didn't want to fight Dorian. But for a sake of an Elemental kingdom, there was no other choice.

Drake said, "Look, if you agree to… " but Elizabeth interrupted him.

"Get out."

"Listen to me." Drake raised his voice. "We need to talk things out. Let me explain."

"GET OUT OF HERE YOU TRAITOROUS PEACE OF SHIT!" Elizabeth shouted. "GET OUT! GET OUT!"

"Calm down." Dorian stroked Elizabeth's hair. "He's not someone we need to worry about."

"Can you please go?" Dorian asked Drake. "I'd rather we didn't start a fight. For old times's sake." Dorian chuckled. "Of course, I don't mind having a fight."

Drake stared at Dorian for a moment and nodded. "Okay. But just this once."

Drake stood up and went to the doors. Before opening them, he asked. "Can you tell me who told you our plan?"

Elizabeth frowned. "So now you're not even going to pretend that you planned to kidnap me?"

Drake sighed as he left the house. "It's the best way to keep peace between Dorian and me."

"Get out" Elizabeth snorted.

Drake left the house and teleported into an Elemental kingdom's castle. He entered the throne room, where Thomas was waiting for him.

"Where is Elizabeth?" Thomas's cat ears twitched in confusion. His eyes were wide open as he started thinking that Drake had changed his mind about the plan. "What happened?"

"He knew about our plan." Drake frowned. "He was there to protect her in case I showed up."

"He knew?" Thomas even choked in surprise. "How did he know that?"

"Someone told him. He didn't tell me who, though." Drake sighed. "He also said nothing about it, either."

"Lucas." First thing that came out of Thomas's lips, as Lucas knew Dorian was a demon. "Lucas Ciffer... That bastard."

"An angel?" Drake raised his brows in confusion. "How could he have known about our plans? Does he have a power that lets him see the future?"

"I don't think so." Thomas shrugged. "He has knowledge about the events that were supposed to take place. He knew about you and Dorian being a demon and he also knew that Dorian was planning to go on a murder streak." Thomas bit his nails out of habit, then noticed Drake staring at him. "Oh... Sorry, I rarely bite my nails..."

"It's fine." Drake said. "How do you know it was him?"

Thomas sighed. "He mentioned he made a deal with Dorian. He never told me what was his part of a deal. Only that Dorian agreed not to murder innocent people."

Drake grabbed Thomas's collar. "Don't you think you should have told me such an important detail?! I walked into Dorian's trap!"

"How could I have known about Lucas giving Dorian this information?!" Thomas snapped back angrily.

Drake took a deep breath and released Thomas's collar. "What do we do now?"

Thomas chuckled. "Don't worry about it. Our plan isn't changing."

Drake raised his brows. "But they know about the plan!" He exclaimed in shock. "How can I take her to a safe place if Dorian is there to protect her from me?"

"You're not alone though." Thomas smiled as he gestured at himself. "You have me. I can always take care of Miss Elizabeth while you keep Dorian busy."

"What if he goes on a rampage?" Drake said skeptically. "Aren't you afraid of what he'll do to you?"

"I trust that you'll be there to save me!" Thomas laughed. "I have nothing to fear."
