Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Niiya came back in the evening to meet Keisha straightaway. When he went inside, he saw that Keisha was packing her things. 

"What are you doing?" he asked. 

"I need to go away from here Niiya. I don't want to be a burden to you," she replied as she kept her small bag of precious stones in her pocket. She had thought that she would stay there for three days thinking that Dmitri would find her soon, but she wasn't expecting that he had failed to find her. 

"You are no burden to me,you can stay here as long as you want!" Niiya said. "It is already 8 PM in the evening. Where will you go now? You should go tomorrow morning if you have to." 

Keisha smiled at his foolishness. "Thanks Niiya, but I have to go."

"Keisha, I want to expose Dmitri's nature in front of Adrianna. Once I do, she will leave him and come to me. You have to help me with that."

Keisha looked at Niiya with wide eyes. 'Is he a fool?' she thought. 

"Niiya, for that, you have to wait for Dmitri to come to your place. I don't have the time for that. I need to go away as far as possible from here before he figures out my whereabouts."

"Keisha, this is my only chance! If we expose Dmitri in front of Adrianna, trust me, Adrianna will come to me and you will get Dmitri," insisted Niiya. He had thought about this while he was in college. If Adrianna got back to him, he swore that he will treasure her; unlike that scum.

Keisha was getting irritated by his foolhardiness, but she didn't say anything. It was a picture that she had painted in front of him and he was trapped. "Niiya, I am not interested in Dmitri anymore. I cannot be with a man who is not loyal to his wife. Do you think he would be loyal to me? Also, what is the guarantee that Adrianna would come back to you? She might be heartbroken after Dmitri is exposed in front of her."

"You can't leave Keisha. You must help me out with this," Niiya said with a tinge of madness in his eyes. 

Keisha sighed. This guy was only wasting her time. There was no one outside and it was already 7 PM. It would be so easy for her to run away. She was smiling inside, thinking that she had gauged it correctly that Dmitri would never suspect her coming here. 

"Niiya, thanks for all your help. If you want, I can write a letter for Adrianna which you can show her, but I have to leave now because I have someone who is waiting for me on the outskirts of this town. They will help me reach my destination safely."

Niiya found her to be too stubborn and selfish. He had given her protection for a day and she couldn't help him with this important part of his life. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, write it."

Keisha picked a pen and paper and quickly wrote a letter. Then she collected her stuff and left Niiya's house. The moment she stepped out, information was sent to Dmitri. Adrianna, who was sitting right next to him nodded. 

Keisha was heading towards the opposite end of the town, where she knew she could escape. She had seen that place once before. It was a desert where only cacti grew. Beyond the desert was another country, another people amongst whom she would hide. She was in a way thankful to Adrianna. Because of her, she had interacted with humans and knew their ways.  

The witch who was supposed to keep a watch on Keisha followed her until the border of the desert very quietly, maintaining a distance under invisibility. 

Meanwhile, Keisha couldn't believe her luck. Throughout the way, she had been so cautious, but she didn't pick up any scent. When she reached the periphery of the border, she looked at the vast expanse of land. She knew that she could cover it within a night. She crossed the road and entered it, then started walking to her destination, while whistling on her victory. She could see some street lamps installed up to the land ahead, and after that, it was dark.  

Suddenly, Keisha stumbled back in shock as Adrianna appeared in front of her. 

"Where are you going Keisha?" asked Adrianna, staring intently at her. 

Keisha was so stunned when she saw Adrianna that she fell back on the sand. The bag of precious stones that she had stolen from her house fell down. It opened, scattering all the precious stones around her. She looked up at Adrianna, who  seemed to be walking on air, high above the ground. 

"Adrianna, it is not my fault. Dmitri tried to force himself on me. I tried to reason with him that he should go back to you but he wouldn't listen," said Keisha, trembling on her feet.  

"I remember converting you into a small cat. Because you said that I didn't deserve Dmitri and that I was some sort of a loose character woman…" said Adrianna, knowing fully well how she would punish Keisha. 

"That is untrue Adrianna! You were too intoxicated to even know what happened." Keisha maintained her stance. "Trust me, it was Dmitri who was trying to betray you!"  

"Well, are you sure?" asked Adrianna. 

"Yes, yes! I am." 

"In that case, I better ask Dmitri about it. I can't punish you unless I ask him."

"Of course!" replied Keisha feeling excited inside for convincing Adrianna too. 

"Okay, stay here Keisha. Don't go anywhere. I will talk to Dmitri in the meanwhile." Adrianna snapped her fingers and left walking through a portal.  

Keisha got up from her place and started laughing, then greedily collected all the stone around her and packed them back in her bag. How could Adrianna be convinced so easily? Was she so good with her skills? She got up from the place and shape shifted. After that, she broke into a sprint. 

Weirdly enough, even after running for a full hour, she returned to the same spot where she had met Adrianna. The street lamps appeared again.
