Feral Confessions – Adrianna And The Alpha

Adrianna narrowed her eyes and grunted, "I am not Adrianna for you. You will call me 'my Queen'." 

Yanga gasped. "Yes, my Queen." 

"Also they are not on the verge of insanity. They are insane already. They tried to mess with me. They tried to kill the ruler of the Wizard Kingdom by siding with our greatest enemy, Vikra. How do you even seek permission to release them?" Adrianna's body stiffened and she almost shouted. There was a lot of pain inside her that poured in her voice. 

"I am their mother and I really can't bear to see them in so much pain," Yanga was on the verge of crying. "My husband died doing his duty for the Kingdom. Please consider that and give us one more chance to live. I will take my children from here and live in a secluded place." 

Tilting her head, she replied, "You had been given the position of a Minister only because of your husband. How could you not see what your kids were doing? And that makes me suspect you a lot. So don't give that, Yanga." 

Yanga's throat became dry. She bit her lip as a tear escaped her eyes. "Adrianna, please, there is nothing more than this. I am out of any excuses here. Please, I beg you. Release my kids," she said as she knelt on the ground and clasped her hands in plea. 

Adrianna relaxed back and said in a raspy voice, "Permission denied." She looked at Isidorus. 

Isidorus nodded. He looked at the oak gate of the court. The guard came back to where Yanga was standing and held her from her shoulders to make her stand. Yanga knew that no amount of pleading would help her case, so she left crying and weeping. All other Ministers present in the court shuddered inside. This was what they would have to face if any of them tried treason. 

Adrianna watched her leaving and as soon as the door closed, she said, "If there is nothing else, I would like to leave."

"There isn't anything," Isidorus replied. 

The noble court was adjourned. 

When she reached the royal palace, Adrianna straightaway went to the nursery. It was already 1PM and she had to go to meet Ookashi. She saw that Ileus was playing with Seashell. He was pulling his ear. Seashell patiently allowed him to do that. She chuckled and said, "We have to go out soon. Are you ready Ileus?" 

Little Ileus looked at his mother and giggled. Immediately, he left his pet and crawled to her as if to understand what she had proposed. Adrianna picked him and lightly hurled him in the air. When she held him again, he was laughing excitedly. "Let's get you ready, buttercup!" she said and took him to the changing table. The nanny had taken out a yellow baby suit for him that covered him from head to toe. Though Adrianna was getting bored of the color, since this was the first time he was going out, she had to go with the color choice. He was the royal baby and would be noticed by all the subjects. 

When Ileus was ready she went to her room to get dressed in a pair of jeans and white shirt. She wore sneakers and tried her best to look like the next-door girl, but she was looking far from that. With her black hair brushed to the extent that each strand was showing and with a beautiful baby like Ileus on her side, she looked like a royal girl who had lost her way in the Human Realm. 

She created a portal and the two of them stepped right inside Nate's house. The entire personal squad followed them. They stationed themselves outside the house in an invisible state. 

Ookashi was waiting there for her. As soon as she saw Adrianna, she squealed and jumped, "Adri!" She hugged her and Ileus tightly. The mother and son chortled together. "How are you?" she asked with enthusiasm. It was the first time Ileus had stepped out of the Wizard Kingdom. 

"I am doing good," she replied with a smile. 

Ookashi took Ileus in her lap. "How is my little baby doing?" 

Ileus gave a beatific smile to her and Ookashi hugged him. "You've got one beautiful boy!" 

"True! He looks like me!" 

Suddenly a voice boomed from behind. "Adrianna!"

Stunned, Adrianna and Ookashi turned back to see who that was and found Pierre standing there. Cora emerged from behind him. They both looked very angry. 

"Father," Adrianna said in a tight voice. "I— I—"

Before she could say anything else, Pierre said sternly, "Our grandson has stepped out of the Wizard Kingdom after so long and you haven't had the courtesy to bring him to his manor. Instead, you decided to come to Ookashi's place?"

Adrianna's mouth fell open. It was a blunder she had made. In her enthusiasm, she had forgotten the protocols. Ookashi felt the heaviness in the air. She walked towards them and bowed. "I am sorry, I should have warned her. Sometimes I forget the rules of the Werewolf realm." 

Cora stepped forward and took Ileus from her. She walked out of the house and Pierre went behind her after saying, "When you are finished talking with her, you can come and pick up Ileus." 

Adrianna bit her lip. Things were very complicated when it came to Ileus. Not only was he an heir of the Wizard Kingdom, he was also an heir of the Werewolf Realm. His grandparents constantly reminded her about that part. 

The security team divided and half of them went for Ileus. 

"I am sorry, Ookashi," Adrianna said with a labored breath. She didn't expect this. 

"I understand Adri," Ookashi said and the two of them walked to her daughter's nursery. 

Adrianna picked her and the friends talked for about half an hour before she left. "We shall be meeting for dinner in the evening, okay?" 

"Yes," Ookashi replied with a smile. 

Adrianna went to the mansion and saw that Cora and Pierre were playing with Ileus. Pierre was his horseback ride. Adrianna chuckled and went to them. "I am sorry Father," she said softly. 

Cora picked a giggling Ileus who immediately extended his hands for his mother. Adrianna took him. 

Pierre got up and said, "It's fine Adrianna. Also remember that he looks quite like his father's family. In fact if you will see him closely, Ileus chin resembles mine." 

Cora narrowed her eyes. "Old man, not like you, but he sure has some of my looks." And just like that an argument started. 

The two servants who were standing around them shook their heads. 

"We have to visit the orphanage, Father. Dmitri had asked me."

"Yes, you must go there. Take Liam and Fleur too. They are planning to adopt a baby from there," Pierre informed. 

Adrianna was surprised. "Sure," she said almost in a whisper. 

Dmitri hadn't come by then, so Adrianna decided to go there on her own. When she reached the cottage that was built for the nine orphan kids a smile wormed on her lips. The place looked lovely. There was so much greenery around it. The staff was made to plant fragrant flowers and the vivacious combination was extremely beautiful. 

From the corner of her eyes she noticed Dmitri coming along with Liam and Fleur. When they came near her, the friends gave a warm hug. They were all looking forward to meet the kids and also spend the time together in the Human Realm. When they entered the orphanage, Adrianna asked Fleur in a low voice, "Why do you want to adopt a child?"
