Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 227 - A Single Chance To Kill Her

He was wearing a towel and looked no more than ten years old. "Nefasky! You stupid girl," he shouted at her and threw a stick from his collection at her. "I have just come from taking bath. Why have you entered in my room? Didn't I tell you to stay away yesterday?"

That was Nefasky's ten year old brother. His parents had given him a puppy as a pet that they had brought from the human realm who was lying on his bed with his tummy upwards. The child was under the impression that a wand is made out of the finest wood and so he collected lots of them. 

Adrianna ducked in order to save herself, but the wooden stick had hit her cheek. The stick was sharp and it hit Adrianna's cheek, which started bleeding a little. In panic, Adrianna lifted the stick and ran out of the room, closing the door behind her. She was cursing herself for unwanted in this useless situation. Why the hell did she even disguise as Nefasky? She frantically started looking for another room or an exit. She found an alley and dashed towards it. 

The alley was dark and thankfully it was quiet. It led into a dimly lit room that looked like a study room. Adrianna walked inside and she was about to create the vortex, when she heard a man speaking from behind the wall. "It has been so many days Mihr. We have had enough time to eliminate Adrianna. However, you've slacked so much. What is wrong with your plan?" 

Adrianna was surprised as to where were the voices coming from. The room was small and other than a table, a chair and a bookshelf, there was nothing else. 

"It's not easy to take down a person like Adrianna when all the time she is surrounded by so much security and Isidorus is himself watching her like a hawk," answered Mihr. 

"Do you mean to say that you are failing?" 

Adrianna walked towards the bookshelf from where the voices seemed to come. 

"Don't tell me that you didn't get a single chance to kill her?"

Adrianna went and stood near the bookshelf with bated breath. Perhaps there was another room behind the bookshelf. 

"Tell Cy that I am trying and if he will keep sending his messengers every now and then, I will not like it," replied Mihr very angrily. 

"It is not easy for us to come to the wizard kingdom, Mihr! Had you been doing your job properly, we wouldn't have shown our face!" shouted the other wizard. 

Adrianna's mind raced to the conversation she had with Mihr a day before. She wondered if he would speak about it. 

"In that case, don't come and disturb me every time. I am getting fed up. I have already sent some wizards to the human realm for the purpose of extracting information about Adrianna. If there is any development here, I will send information to Cy via those wizards. No need to show your face here as it puts me in danger. These days Isidorus has tightened his security everywhere," replied Cy. 

The fact that he didn't reveal his conversation with her meant that he was considering the option. Perhaps he was in a dilemma. Adrianna came to the conclusion that Mihr had been contemplating a lot of things for now. Perhaps he would weigh his options and act accordingly. But for today she had got a lot of information about him and even though she had been in this situation by chance, it was worth it. 

The blood from her cheek had dropped on her robe. It was a slightly deep cut and she felt pain and burning sensation. She sighed. 

"Who's there?" came a voice from inside.

Adrianna closed her mouth with her hands. She had committed a grave mistake. 

All of a sudden the bookshelf started moving to the left. There was a movement as she heard footsteps in her direction. This was the time. She closed her eyes and created the vortex. The bookshelf opened and Mihr emerged from behind it. He picked up the stick from there and gritted his teeth. He had to perform spells on his son in order for him to forget past one hour's incidents. 

Adrianna walked into the Royal Palace. She was shaking from the recent string of incidents that she had experienced. Thankfully, she escaped just in time. 

There was so much information. She sat on her bed with her head in her hands. Should she tell about it to Isidorus? She wanted to tell about it to Dmitri, but then what purpose would it serve? She went to take a bath. By the time she was back, her mind was clear. She summoned Isidorus. 

Adrianna stepped out of her bedroom and found Isidorus waiting for her. She told him everything. Isidorus didn't look surprised. He went in deep thought. 

Adrianna said, "How did Cy's men enter the wizard kingdom despite heavy security around? It only means that there is someone other than Mihr who is helping them!"
