When Vikra went back, Pierre felt excited. He knew that Vikra was one of the most vicious creatures on the earth and it was possible that he wouldn't even do as promised, but Pierre was ready to take his chances. That one chance was enough for him. He had been living all this while only to get freed from Vikra's clutches and go back to his family, his mate and his son. He missed them a lot. He also missed Ed and his granddaughter that he had promised he would marry his son with. He wondered where she might be at the moment. He had to find his family the moment he was out. The thought only excited him and he waited for the morning. He didn't know how he would spend the night.

Isidorus met with Dmitri and his chiefs that day after forming his strategy to attack Vikra. They were concerned about one thing only – Adrianna's safety. They were not sure that Vikra might keep her safe and just to take his vendetta, he might kill Adrianna. Hence they had to move with caution. 

The entire wizard's army had come to the Werewolf Realm after Isidorus and Mihr had talked to Dmitri and talked about their plans. They were ready to attack. 

Dmitri along with all the chiefs started their journey towards the east of Vikra's land. The jungles were huge and they would take a lot of time to reach there. In order to ease the movement, the wizards created portal through which the werewolves directly walked on the eastern side of Vikra's territory. It took almost until midnight for all the troops to march and be stationed in their places. Obviously Vikra had been informed of this by his messengers but he was least bothered. He knew that he would use Adrianna against her own people because knowing the beast she had become, she would never be able to identify who she was fighting against. And the first person she would fight against was her own father-in-law. Upon thinking about the possibilities, Vikra sniggered. 

After talking to Pierre, Vikra went to Adrianna's cave and found her awake. She was scratching her head with her paw. As soon as he appeared in the cave, she growled at him menacingly in order to scare him off. He was very far away from her and looked at her. He smiled and said, "Adrianna, be ready for tomorrow. After fighting and killing your father-in-law, you need to kill your husband and his mother and then go on to win the battle for me." 

Adrianna growled at him again. This creature was really irritating her now. She got up on her front legs and looked at it. She was positioning herself to attack him. 

"Tomorrow, I will put you under the same shackles as I have put on Pierre. Your special armor is ready and you will wear it in the battlefield. Trust me, you are going to have a lot of fun tomorrow," said Vikra and started laughing. He was extremely excited for the dawn to break. More than the wizards and the werewolves, he was eager to fight against them. His only problem was that he had to create a full moon illusion for Adrianna. But that shouldn't be an issue as he had thought of a plan to keep her in that condition.

Dmitri and his troops had stationed themselves and were monitoring all the movement of the neotides. There were thousands of them scattered everywhere. Since they had already come to know that the armies of wizards and werewolves had surrounded them, they were prepared for the war. Adrianna's cave was heavily guarded with neotides not only surrounding the periphery but also on the roof of the cave. They looked like ants crawling all over the place. 

On the outside in Dmitri's camp, a meeting was going on which was attended by Isidorus, Nate, Liam and Cora. Dmitri was of the opinion that they should send a message personally to Vikra and tell him to release Adrianna in a peaceful way. 

Isidorus said, "Vikra is a powerful wizard. He has trapped Adrianna and in a way that he must have created an illusion of full moon for her. Otherwise Adrianna would have broken the spell and come out by now." 

"So how do we break the spell?" asked Cora. She had been apprised about Adrianna's curse a while back. Instead of getting panicky, she only dealt with the matter at hand maturely. 

"Well, I am going to take a few Mozia with me today inside Vikra's land. We will be finding our way inside to his cave. While over there, one of the Mozias will sneak in and try to find the place where she is held as a prisoner," replied Isidorus. 

"In that case I will come with you," said Dmitri. 

"There is going to be a lot of risk Dmitri. Right now we have to be rational instead of being driven by emotions," said Isidorus. 

"I will go!" roared Dmitri. How could he stay there when his partner was held inside Vikra's land?  

Isidorus gritted his teeth, "Fool!" he lashed. 

Dmitri ignored him and repeated, "I will go along with you. While you negotiate with Vikra, I will go with the Mozia and search Adrianna." 

"Okay!" agreed Isidorus with anger. Dmitri's presence would create problems because he wouldn't be able to disappear at will like wizards. But what could he do? He was Adrianna's foolish werewolf husband.

It was towards the end of the night, when Pierre heard movement around his prison. It was as if someone was running but the way it ran, only a rustle could be heard. He became alarmed. Was that one of the neotides who wanted to kill him before giving him a chance to fight? He had been forming one strategy after another throughout the night to bring the other werewolf down but his thoughts were broken by that sound. He sat up, tensed as hell.
