Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

There was no answer to her question because even though The Crown was active in her head and knew her doubts, he didn't answer her. She stayed quiet and looked ahead. As usual her vision had altered and she started seeing an extra layer of energy around the wizards present in the court. She glanced through all of them as everybody watched her looking at them. She noticed that the only person who appeared extremely tired was Ziu while rest of them was feeling invigorated. The energy around everyone was vibrant while around Ziu it was dull. She ignored it thinking that he might have become tired trying to restore the breached wall because all the others had gone with her, while only he remained there for the work.

The court started and there were very few matters to deal with. The ministry people were demanding a new cell of wizards and witches that would go to the Human Realm and mix with the humans there. In fact ever since the natives of the Wizard Kingdom had heard that their Queen had in her earlier years interacted with the humans had made them extremely interested about those people. They wanted to see how it was to stay within them without practicing their magic. Perhaps that was the reason why she was so strong. 

When Adrianna heard this logic, she couldn't stop laughing, but she said that she will have to talk to the relevant people in the Human Realm and put this proposal forward. 

Other wizards demanded that there should a weeklong celebration in the Wizard Kingdom for their epic victory. This is something, which Adrianna could not say no to because her people deserved the celebration. She gave her consent for that. 

"Take your time to scan people during this celebration. There are still a few bad eggs in the kingdom, which need to be thrown out or punished. During the celebration finale, get them out from their hiding and kill all of them," said the Crown. 

"I don't want to kill anymore," replied Adrianna. She was tired of all the gore. 

"You have to. I don't want a single threat to the heir," the Crown insisted.

"How can it be a threat to the unborn child? Also why are you so protective about the child?" she asked feeling very strange. For some reason she found that Isidorus and Mihr were also strongly protective about the child.

"Ileus has to be protected at all costs!" asserted the Crown without giving any more explanations. 

Adrianna became quiet. There was no point in discussing it. The court was adjourned and she started to leave when she noticed that Ziu was in a hurry to leave and didn't even wait for her to leave the court and exited much to the annoyance of others. She had to ignore that. 

When she reached the Royal Palace, she found that Dmitri was waiting for her. He had already woken up and was enjoying the grapes that the servant had served him. He smiled as he saw her and gestured her to come and sit next to him. She went near him and instead of sitting next to him, she sat right on his lap. He laughed and said, "It seems you really missed my lap." 

She curled her hands around him and said, "I missed everything about you." She kissed his lips and soon Dmitri lost control as he delved his tongue in her mouth. They were kissing passionately when someone from behind started coughing loudly. Startled at this intrusion, the two of them immediately separated and saw that Isidorus was standing there. Adrianna flushed while Dmitri looked like he could kill Isidorus. 

"What are doing here old man?" asked Dmitri. "Don't you have a garden to look after? After all you neglected it for so long!" 

Isidorus narrowed his eyes and ignored the sarcasm. 

Adrianna got out of her husband's lap and sat beside him sheepishly. Isidorus also went and sat opposite her. As soon as he sat, he said, "Adrianna I need answers to my questions." 

Before he even asked her anything, she knew what he wanted to ask. She smiled and said, "Sure, ask away, even though I know what you want to ask."

"You were under the curse during that night and you were captured. How did you manage to come out of this?" asked Isidorus. 

Adrianna relaxed back. She knew this was just the first from the long list he had. They had the entire day with them. 

"When I was crowned, the Moon Goddess visited me. Her gift was that she had lifted the curse partially. So now I will be the rogue wolf without control only for sometime, while the rest of the time I will remain the rogue wolf but will remember everything. However, I will not be able to shape shift and stay as a werewolf during the entire full moon night. Moon Goddess said that the effects of the curse would slowly wear off now that I am expecting a child." 

"Oh, so this explains almost everything!" he said. "But how did you manage to come out of the cave? I mean Dmitri and the Mozia couldn't have broken the spell around that cave. Vikra's magic was too powerful."

"Hmm… True. Let me start from the beginning. That will answer all your doubts," she said. 

"When Vikra caught me and put me in that cage under the illusion of the full moon, he didn't know that my curse was already partially lifted. I was staying in that form only because I wanted to know his plans. Dmitri had told me that his father had disappeared when he fought against Vikra and I had a strong intuition that he was still there. So that night when Vikra came to visit me, I took the opportunity to enter his cell. All he saw was that I was relaxing and eating but in reality, he didn't know that I was in his cell."

"He committed a foolish mistake by going and meeting Pierre just after meeting me. He spoke to Pierre and instigated him to fight with me. I was right there, listening to his plan in his cell and could see Pierre. That was the first time I saw Pierre and was extremely happy for Dmitri." 

Adrianna was about to speak further, when suddenly a portal in front of them was formed. The three of them were surprised to see the people who walked out of it.
