Feral Confessions – Adrianna And The Alpha

Isidorus was very angry at her and reminded her, "You know that one second inside the spirit land Gaira is equal to one year of our realm?" 

"I know."

"Even if I preserve your body for that one year, what will happen to the baby?" 

Adrianna didn't answer as she clenched her jaw. Preserving a wizard's body wasn't a problem. That could be done in a hut that was hidden right behind the Aspen tree. She had read about it in the library of the Ministry out of interest. She never knew that it would become a reality one day. 

Isidorus could never change Adrianna's mind. Speaking to her was futile. In a few minutes the Land of Gaira would be unveiled from the blanket of the night. As soon as the sun's first rays would fall upon the entrance, they all had to come to action. "Let us all go to the Aspen tree," he ordered. "Everyone keep your wands pointed at Dmitri. He should be forced to stay near the wall and glide on it until we reach the entrance."

Everyone took their wands out and directed at him. 

Dmitri looked at Adrianna with the black of his eyes expanding and said in a daunting and vibrating voice, "If you enter the Land of Gaira, I will take Dmitri with me." 

Adrianna replied in an equally waspy tone, "Come what may, you will meet your end Vikra." Saying that she was the first one to emit a beam of sparkly white light from her wand. The light traveled to Dmitri. They surrounded him like tiny wisps that floated lightly. 

Haldir, Nefasky and the Mozias followed the suit. 

Dmitri's body convulsed. Vikra was making sure to harm Dmitri's physical body. Suddenly his hand moved and he clawed at Dmitri's abdomen tearing his shirt. The claws went right through his shirt, inside his skin and made a deep laceration. Blood started oozing out. "See what I can do to him," his voice reverted in the night. 

Pierre was standing at the far end. He raced to his son. He shouted at them, "Stop, all of you stop! Dmitri must be in pain." Pierre's face was red. How could he let his son suffer so much? 

Vikra screeched with laughter. 

"Father, move away from there," Adrianna roared. "Vikra is scaring us. Have you forgotten that Dmitri is a werewolf? His body will heal soon." 

Pierre looked at Adrianna with pain in his eyes. He said, "Adrianna, this better be good else I will hold you responsible for the rest of your life." 

Adrianna pursed her lips as emotions choked her. "There would be no life for me, father. You can hold responsible whomsoever you want, but for now let me work." She looked towards the horizon. "See," she pointed at there, "The sun is about to come up. This is our only chance." 

Everyone was desperate by now. If it had been for Isidorus, he would have frozen Pierre for the rest of his life. He gritted his teeth for Pierre's lack of reasoning. 

Pierre's shoulders slumped. Looking at the way she was begging, Pierre moved out from there. He walked to the spot where he already was. "I will be waiting for the two of you," he said with agony. 

Seeing that the things have settled with Pierre, Isidorus instructed everyone as they started to take Dmitri towards the entrance making his slide on the wall, "As soon as we reach the entrance, all of you are going to cast 'Expello Animamea!' spell on Dmitri with power. That will force Vikra's soul out. He will try to clutch on Dmitri's body or take him with him while coming out. But you have to be insistent and cast the spell again." 

"That is a very powerful spell, Isidorus," said Nefasky with wide eyes. That would separate his physical body with the astral one. And there were two souls in that body. She shivered internally. 

Isidorus looked at her with anger and said, "Do as I say." 

"Yes," she muttered in fear. 

In order to waver them, Vikra clawed Dmitri's chest. There was blood all over. However, none of them stopped. They continued to glide him to the entrance. 

Dmitri was now entirely encompassed by the white sparkly lights. Vikra's soul hated it. The white sparkles were actually the healing orbs. They brushed past Dmitri's skin and healed his wounds. Vikra shook the body again as if to scatter those orbs, but they kept circling with the same steadfastness. 

The sun was about to come up. It was only a matter of minutes. Dmitri was now positioned on the entrance. Adrianna was waiting for the moment. She knew that as soon as the spell would be cast, she would leave her physical body and take Vikra inside the Land of Gaira with her. She was ready to sacrifice herself if that was the last chance to bring back Dmitri. She was consumed in her inner thoughts. "Hang on Dmitri! I will get you," she mumbled. 

As soon as her words came, the sun rose behind the mountains filling the sky with its warm gold, bright rays amidst the inky blue sky as though bidding the stars to go and be with the moon. Adrianna gasped. This was the moment. The first ray fell on the Aspen tree making its green leaves shimmer. Slowly the ray lowered itself on the entrance and it shone in a blinding light.

"Now!" shouted Isidorus. 

"Expello Animamea!" all the wizards and the witches cast the spell with all the force they could gather in their body. 

Suddenly, Vikra's soul came out with a screech. It looked as if white smoke had come out of Dmitri's body. But immediately it started to go back inside. The wizards shouted the spell again. This time Vikra's soul was forced out inside the Land of Gaira. It clutched on Dmitri to try to take his soul with him. But he had already pushed Dmitri in the corner of his body. He was not approachable. Dmitri's soul was lying unconscious in his own body surrounded by the eternity of darkness Vikra had created for him. 

Adrianna was now ready to force herself near him when Isidorus shouted, "One more time!" 

The wizards did it again and this time the last clutches of Vikra's soul left Dmitri. 

Dmitri's body slumped. 

Adrianna was about to leave her physical body to force Vikra inside Gaira because he was refusing to enter it when she noticed something bizarre. Her mouth dropped and she gasped. Everyone over there was shocked. They saw Isidorus leaving his physical body. His soul screeched and latched itself on to Vikra's soul. In a fraction of a second, Isidorus soul pushed Vikra's in the Land of Gaira. The two of them disappeared. He would make sure that Vikra never returned. This act was the epitome of his dedication to the throne.

Everyone on the outside was completely surprised and shaken up. 

Adrianna jolted. She didn't know what to say. She lowered her wand and ran to Isidorus, whose old body was now lying in a lifeless heap. "No!" she shouted in pain. 

Haldir came to her and instructed the Mozias, "Lower you wands now." On the inside, he was happy that Isidorus was the one who pushed Vikra inside and not his Queen. He feared for the baby. He realized that Isidorus too had the same attraction for the child. He looked at Adrianna and said, "I know what to do next Adrianna. Go and take care of Dmitri. He needs you."

As soon as the wands were lowered, Dmitri slipped down the wall onto the ground. Pierre darted to his son.

Dmitri was saved.
