Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 133 - Purpose Needs To Be Fulfilled

They had reached the bedroom by the time Dmitri spoke those words. Adrianna let go of his hand and froze on the spot. "You want me to leave you and go away?" she asked, afraid that he had became weary of the fact that she had used magic on his mother. 

Dmitri shook his head, "No Adrianna, it's not that. You are the rightful owner of that throne. You must claim it. I don't want my wife to be reduced to a housewife just because of my greediness. Yes, I am very greedy when it comes to you, but I have no right to hold you back from your destiny. What happened just now was just a sample of just how much you are deserving of that crown. Your mother died to give birth to you. You owe this to her. You came into this world with a purpose... and that purpose needs to be fulfilled." 

Adrianna shook her head as she retracted her steps. She ran away while shouting, "No Dmitri! I will not leave you. You promised me that you will stay with me forever." 

Dmitri watched her run and then followed her. It was already early in the morning and the birds had started chirping. He came outside to find her sitting by a brook that flowed at the rear end of the palace. Stars were still up in the sky and he caught her gazing at them absent-mindedly. It was very chilly so she had wrapped her arms around her to keep herself warm. Dmitri walked up to her and hugged her from behind. Then, he opened his fur coat and wrapped her inside, enveloping her in his body heat as well as the warmth of the coat. 

"Adri..." he said tenderly.

"I don't want to go. We just found each other Dmitri. Can't we just spend some time with each other?" she asked, hiding her face in his chest. 

He exhaled hot air and said, "I would hate to leave you baby, but let's just do this and get it over with. It is possible that the crown rejects you and then no one will have a reason to interfere anymore…" 

Adrianna looked up at his beautiful face and smiled. "Yes, that could be possible." 

"Then don't wait. Go there today and get it done with," he communicated mentally. She chuckled. 

Together, they stood at the edge of the brook for a long time before going back to the bedroom while holding hands. They slept for some time and Dmitri held Adrianna tightly all the while as though she was leaving forever and this was his last chance to be with her. His insides were all knotted and the idea of staying away from her gnawed at him. For the first time in his life, he felt as though a part of his soul was going to leave him... and it hurt - it hurt so badly. "What will I do without you Adri…" he whispered.

He had a very disturbed sleep. When he woke up, he found that Adrianna wasn't in the room. "Has she gone? Has she left me?" With those thoughts, he ran out of the room to find her. When he came downstairs, he found that the servants were all talking in hushed tones. He looked at them and demanded to know what was going on. 

The servants jumped in fright at the sound of his booming voice. One of them came forward and said, "Master there is a large army of witches and wizards surrounding the palace. Your luna is outside with them. Everybody is scared. Master, you must go and take a look." 

Dmitri rushed out. His apprehensions were becoming true by the minute. She would leave him soon. When he went outside, he saw that there was indeed a large number of witches and wizards standing around. The palace garden had been converted into a human bastion. Adrianna was standing at the entrance of the main door talking with Fleur and Howard. Dmitri walked over and stood next to her. 

"What is your decision Adrianna?" asked Howard. 

Fleur looked at her with anxiety. She waited for her answer with baited breath. Isidorus had asked them to bring Adrianna, even if she disagreed to come, and that meant they had to use a lot of force. 

"Why are there more witches and wizards flying around this area? You are disturbing the peace of the werewolves that live here! Remove them at once!" she shouted at them. 

"I am sorry Adrianna, but this is just a precaution in case you don't agree to come with us," replied Fleur softly. 

"If I disagree, then no amount of force can take me anywhere against my will. Always remember that," said Adrianna gently but strictly. 

Howard and Fleur flinched. They were well aware of the fact that she was extremely powerful and that the only reason she wasn't going was because of Dmitri. They looked at Dmitri who was standing right next to her. 

He placed his hands on her shoulders and said, "Adrianna, we already decided this in the morning."

She sighed. "I will go with you guys…" 

Howard and Fleur became so excited that they Fleur even clapped her hands. All their trepidations had come to an end with her simple agreement. 

"But I have a condition," Adrianna interrupted their excitement. 

"What is it?" asked Howard, becoming worried. 

"I want Dmitri to come with me."
