Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 135 - Vikra's Attack (2)

Vikra knew that once Adrianna stepped foot in the wizard kingdom, he wouldn't be able to touch her. So his only chance to abduct her was to catch her before she got to the wizard kingdom. Hence, it was important for him to know which route was she taking. 

The neotides informed him that the entire group was going to fly back to the wizard kingdom. This was the loophole he had been waiting for.

Before leaving, Fleur wanted to meet Liam as not meeting him was making her sad. She wanted to see him and was unable to understand as to why she missed him so. Her logical brain wasn't functioning well whenever it came to Liam. She thought of sneaking around and finding Liam, but was caught by Ed. 

"Where are you going?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

She was taken aback by his question and said, "I was going to meet Father." 

"But your father is standing right here," replied Ed, even more bemused. "You should prepare to leave."

"Yes Uncle," she replied as she left to return to her team, inwardly cursing him. Her eyes kept darting around to find Liam. 

Adrianna had requested for Fleur to fly with her so that she could experience the feeling of flying. Dmitri and Ed decided to shape shift and run the distance. 

Howard was extremely restless about this decision. He wanted to create a portal and immediately take them all through. However, just because of Adrianna's insistence, they had to fly. He wanted to just get it over with, but the youngsters were always looking for new adventures. That aspect was what made him furious. He tried to put his logic out there, but they insisted on wanting to fly on their brooms. He gritted his teeth and reluctantly agreed.

Vikra knew that he had only a matter of a few hours for him to attack the convoy and take the girl. However, he didn't know which route they were taking. Wizards and witches were clever people - who would know their personality better than him. It was possible that they would never take the route that was publically announced. The forest was huge and it would be extremely difficult for him to scan through it. 

He was expecting his people to find Cy as soon as possible. He had already heard about Cy's defeat at the hands of the queen. He had never imagined just how powerful this child could be, and now that he knew, the sheer thought of holding her in the palm of his hands sent thrills throughout his body. With her on his side, he would be the most powerful man of the three realms. 

The neotides found Cy in an abandoned cave. He had amputated his arm was lying unconscious. The three wizards whom he had escaped with were trying to bring him back to consciousness. The neotides offered their help and tactfully lured them back to Vikra's place. Once they reached Vikra's place, Cy was taken to the special hall for healing purposes. 

Vikra was informed of the situation so he went to see Cy. The three wizards who were with Cy were frightened as soon as they saw Vikra approaching them. Vikra looked so cold and devoid of life that even one look at him would make it feel as though your life had been sucked out. Vikra had no eyes and only hollow holes, yet it seemed as though he was staring at all of them. He floated in the air with his tattered robe flying behind him. 

The three wizards immediately stood up to guard themselves and Cy. But Vikra just moved closer and coldly inspected them by moving around them as they found themselves rooted to the ground and unable to move a muscle. 

"Who are they?" he asked in his trademark whisper tone. 

"They were with Cy," replied Reese. 

Vikra moved closer to Cy and brushed his bony finger against Cy's arm. The arm was miraculously healed within a few minutes but instead of a hand, there was now a metal rod that extended out of the joint. The three wizards were dumbfounded. 

Cy regained consciousness almost immediately. He got up from his place, shocked to see an unfamiliar surrounding before his gaze fell on Vikra who was staring at Cy with interest. 

Cy was appalled by Vikra and tried to raise his hand to cast magic, but was met with the same treatment as his accomplices. 

Vikra started speaking to Cy. His voice was so low that Cy had to focus to hear it. 

"Cy… I know you want the crown of the wizard kingdom…"

Vikra released the magic spell that he had cast on Cy. 

"Who are you?" asked Cy as soon as he was released.

"I am Vikra… I can get that kingdom for you… but I need something in exchange…"

Cy had never felt so strange in his life. Although he was shocked to see Vikra, he felt an assurance in his words. 

"What do you want?"

"I need Adrianna…"
