Feral Confessions – Adrianna And The Alpha

Adrianna scoffed, "Rufus, tried to force himself on me and Dmitri saved me from him."

The fire had started to work its way up. It was already chewing the logs at a rapid speed and had reached Claus feet. He tried to jump and use his brute force of a werewolf to break those chains of white beam but he couldn't. The more he tried, the more they tightened. "My son could never do anything like this," he coughed and said in a hoarse voice. "You are lying. You charged him with a crime he never did in order to become a damsel in distress in front of Dmitri."

Hearing his baseless accusations, Adrianna gut roiled with anger. She looked at it with cold, hard and flinty eyes. Suddenly she was airborne. She glided her way to him and punched him on his face. "That's for accusing me and calling me a liar."

The skin beneath Claus' eyes ruptured and a deep gash was formed. He raised his voice and yelled at her, "You witch! You are taking advantage of the fact that I am tied. Open me and then you will see what I can do to you."

Adrianna's voice deepened when she said, "I was in trouble because of your son that day but defended myself as much I could. But I have no intentions of clarifying things with you. You are not worth it and right you look like a damsel in distress." She laughed with an edge. Claus stared at her. She looked like a dangerous beast. All of a sudden Adrianna poked her finger in his forehead. His head jerked back slightly. The air around his head rippled and all of a sudden everything that happened that night when his son had charged Adrianna, started playing like a reel. 

"This can't- this is not true," he said in a shaky voice as heat flushed through his body. "You are manipulating me," He said in disbelief. 

At that instant Adrianna slapped him hard on the other side and he was brought back to reality. "You are conning me," he said in an urgent voice. 

"I don't have the time to con you," said Adrianna and dismissed him. She flew back to near Haldir and sent a fresh wave of fire to logs. Within seconds red, orange and blue flames consumed Claus' entire body as if they were starving from a long time. 

Adrianna was about to leave, when Haldir asked, "What about Meina?" 

Before she could answer, a loud distressing howl pierced the night and they saw Meina running back to the area where they were standing. She was being chased by five huge brown bears. 

Haldir's lips twitched into a smile. 

As soon as Meina came near Adrianna, she shape shifted. She clung to her and said in a jittery tone, "I am sorry Adrianna. I will never do it again. Please don't kill me. What will happen to Reinjie? Think about him. He is my mate and your brother. Last time also you left him because of me." She was on her knees as she pleaded Adrianna. She kept looking at the bears who stood there patiently in the distance growling and grunting at her. 

Adrianna looked at the bears and communicated, "Thanks. I don't need her. You may take her."

"Anytime Adrianna," said the largest one. "My young one is hungry and she would make a good feast." 

Adrianna chuckled. She saw Meina who was quivering with horror. "Yes, I was considerate. I asked Dmitri not to kill Reinjie because of you. I convinced him that he was your mate and killing a mate was one of the worst things you could do. He took my advice and till today Reinjie is alive. But what did you do? You gave back this to me? You tried to kill my mate? And now you are using that stale card to play me. No way!" Adrianna was shocked at her pretense. "People like you should never be pardoned. So get lost," she said and snapped her fingers. 

Meina found herself in between the bears. "Adrianna, no! Help me!" But her high-pitched shrieks faded into the night as the bears mauled her and then dragged her away deep into the forest. 

Satisfied, Adrianna breathed in. "Let's go," she said to Haldir and they got sucked in the vortex. 

When they reached her bedroom, she saw that Isidorus had created the portal. Nefasky and two Mozias were holding Dmitri who was now staring with his black eyes open wide. "He is beginning to warm up," said Isidorus. 

"I want all of you to enter that portal. We are all going to the Land of Gaira," Adrianna commanded. 

"Yes, my Queen," came a solid assurance from all. 

Cora and Pierre were also there. "I want to go with you," Pierre said in a tone that Adrianna could not dismiss. 

Cora nodded. "Yes Adrianna, take him with you." 

"Okay father," she replied with glazed eyes. How could she stop a father?

Then she turned to all and said, "Remember, it is going to be difficult. It is possible that one of you may get sucked inside Gaira. Stay alert and stay calm. I will try my best not to let anything happen to you."

"Yes, my Queen."

One by one all of them entered the portal. Dmitri glared at Adrianna and hissed, "Don't." 

Vikra had quickened his travel around Dmitri's body. Only a few more hours and he would have completely possessed him. He protested with whatever might he could. Dmitri's body shook uncontrollably. "Don't," he hissed again in order to scare Adrianna. But she ignored him. She knew that the effect of the Healer's potion was wearing off. 

One by one all of them stepped inside the portal and walked outside the periphery of Gaira, the Spirit Realm. When they reached there, Isidorus said in a loud voice, "The Land of Gaira consists of portals to four realms – the Dorzi, where only irredeemable immortal souls are found, the Bodak, where souls of thieves and murderers from the mortal and immortal worlds are imprisoned, the Efevar, where nature spirits and Fae souls are found and the Seozia, where spirits of the dark creatures reside. Vikra's destination is Seozia." 

He held Dmitri by hand to make him stand near the border. Dmitri's body shook so violently that for once Adrianna felt terrible. She felt she could nauseate. "Stop it!" she shouted. 

Isidorus could see how strained she was. "Shush, Adrianna. Vikra is trying to scare you." He turned his attention to Dmitri and cast the spell, "Obstupefacio!" His body stopped quivering. Isidorus pushed him close to the border. A large Aspen tree was standing tall on the left. "That is the entrance," he pointed. 

From the outside, the Land of Gaira was nothing but rolling moors. But when Dmitri was pushed further inside, everyone could feel an invisible airfield that billowed behind him. 

Isidorus walked to Adrianna and said in a very low voice, "You know that no one can enter their physical bodies in this world?" 

"Yes," she replied with a stone face.

"So do not think of entering this realm, whatsoever happens," he warned her. 

"I will go where my Dmitri goes," she replied with determination.

"You are pregnant. If you enter, you have to leave your physical body on the outside and that means your baby could be harmed," he reasoned.

Adrianna didn't reply. She stared at Dmitri. 

Isidorus gritted his teeth. "Adrianna-"

"I know what to do," she snapped.
