Feral Confessions – Adrianna And The Alpha

"Yes, I am waiting for him to wake up. You can complain all you want when he does," she replied with melancholy. Adrianna knew that Cora wouldn't stop so easily and that Cora would continue to taunt her as much as possible. However, by this time, all she wanted was for Dmitri to be happy and awake by her side.

Fleur had informed Isidorus of Cy's escape. Although he knew that Fleur wouldn't have been able to stop Cy, as he was too powerful for her, he was still furious at her for letting him go. He was also not impressed by the fact that she had arrived late to save Adrianna. He punished her by making the pain from the seal on her hand sting a lot more than necessary. The pain was so bad that Fleur couldn't lift her hand for a day. She couldn't do anything to make the pain go away; that was her punishment for arriving late to the scene.

Ever since they had reached the Blue Moon Pack, all the wizards and witches had been put on a twenty-four hour watch. When Cora saw them, she was scared first. She was confused as to how come she had visitors from the wizard kingdom. When she came to know about Adrianna, she was all the more surprised. She became worried that because of Adrianna, Dmitri had gotten himself involved in too much trouble and wanted Adrianna to leave his side to ensure his safety.

Seeing as Dmitri was still not awake, she had asked Adrianna several times to leave the palace and return to where she belonged. 

"I will tell him that you have died, and you can just leave," she had suggested at one point. 

Cora's encouragement of her leaving only made Adrianna more determined to stay with her alpha. Without him, she would be in the most miserable state, so she ignored Cora's words. 

After Cora had demanded an explanation, Fleur had told Cora about Adrianna's secret. Even though Cora was genuinely surprised, her hatred for Adrianna surpassed her fear of Adrianna as the possible queen of the wizards. 

Isidorus was becoming more and more impatient to meet Adrianna. He was beginning to wonder what plans Cy could be brewing. Now that Cy was no more a part of the wizard kingdom, he had become even more dangerous. Somehow, he couldn't even trace Cy's movements anymore which made him wonder whether Cy had amputated his hand in order to get rid of the seal. He had asked Fleur to convey a message to Adrianna that she should come to the kingdom as soon as possible to claim her title. He had been waiting for a long time now. However, Adrianna wouldn't move from her room. Dmitri was her priority. 

If the "Ponos" spell had been cast on a human, they would have died, but Dmitri had sustained it and had merely fell unconscious. No one in the wizard kingdom had the ability to help a victim of the spell and hence, Isidorus was unable to help. Since Adrianna was unwilling to go to the wizard kingdom until Dmitri woke up, Isidorus could only hope for Dmitri to recover quickly. Until then, Isidorus had to wait. 

For two days, Dmitri struggled to come out of the darkness he had been engulfed in. At first, the darkness around him was like ice; it was so dark that he could only see a very small slimmer of white light. He had called for Adrianna a number of times from within the darkness, but she was nowhere to be seen. He moved closer to the white light only to find that it was only the light from a candle that was being winded. Afraid that the light would die quickly if he stayed near it, he retracted. The darkness melted slowly around him and he escaped only to find himself in quicksand. He was suffocated. It was on the third day that Dmitri was able to break out of the darkness completely.

He weakly opened his eyes and found a warm hand around his. He turned his head to take in his surroundings and figure out where he was. He quickly realized that he was in his bedroom. Only a dim light on the bedside was on and the entire room was dark. It was probably nighttime. He turned his head and saw Adrianna curled up against him. He smiled at her and lifted his hand to stroke her head. 

Adrianna immediately woke up as soon as she felt a flurry of movement beside her. She excitedly sprang up and exclaimed "Dmitri" when she saw him looking at her. She hurled her body at him and held him tightly. 

"You are awake!" she cried cheerfully. Her joy knew no bounds. It was as though she had been given a second life. 

"Ah!" Dmitri protested a little when she pressed him hard against the mattress. 

"Sorry," she replied between her excitement as she started laughing. He was back!
