Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 298 - Third Stage Of The Competition (8)

Adrianna looked at the audience and was hoping to find Dmitri somewhere. Amongst the throng of visitors that were sitting over there, it was difficult to find Dmitri. All of them were sitting very far from the actual segments and so it wasn't very easy to spot them. Hence while she was competing with George, she really couldn't focus on them. When she had cast the spell on George, she went near him, picked his wand and snapped her fingers for him to come out of the trance. George immediately came out of the trance and he looked at Adrianna with wide eyes. She smiled and handed over his want to him. 

"Thank you, George. It was great having to compete with you," she bowed and said.

George gulped. "What happened to me?" he asked feeling very sad almost to the point of looking desolate. 

"Nothing much. I casted "Hypnosia" spell on you," replied Adrianna with a smile playing on her lips. 

She looked ahead and saw that the last two pairs were still fighting. She held George's hand and raised it up for the audience to see. The audience was already in frenzy after she had won. They were cheering for her from the outside. Banners were waving in the air and the wizards and witches had burst fire crackers with magic. Adrianna laughed as she saw her supporters doing that. 

Her eyes searched for Dmitri and finally found him but when she looked on his side, her eyes became wide with surprise. So this was the surprise he was giving her. 

On his left side Ed was sitting who had stood up and clapped loudly. Adrianna jumped in the air when she saw him. She ran towards the end of the segment just before the charmed wall and waved her hand at him. He waved back, a grin splitting his face. Dmitri started laughing at her. Suddenly she saw a woman standing slowly beside Dmitri. Adrianna was stunned. She stopped waving and her mouth fell to the ground. That was Cora. 

Cora stood up slowly and she started clapping along with the audience. Adrianna couldn't think for a moment. Was she dreaming? She stared at her again and pinched herself. "Ouch!" she shouted. No she wasn't dreaming. Cora had come to see her competition and she was clapping for her! Did Dmitri force her to come? 

She waited for the professors to remove the wall around her. As soon as the results were displayed on top of the wall, a door was formed for them to exit the area. The brooms of the students were stashed in the corner. As soon as they sensed their owners, they flew to them. Adrianna caught her broom and sat on it. She wanted to fly to Dmitri however they were instructed to take a round of the entire field on the broom for the spectators before leaving the grounds. 

Adrianna whooshed around the field in order to be with her family as soon as possible even leaving George behind. When she came out, she could actually hear all the noise around her and was overwhelmed by it. She laughed. When she reached where her family was sitting, she went to them but was hit by an invisible wall. She realized that even the field was encompassed within a magic wall. She pursed her lips and instructed all of them to meet her in the royal palace. 

After the formalities were over, Adrianna was allowed to go back home. When she reached home, she found Dmitri sitting in the main hall along with Ed and Cora. She was so happy to see Ed that she ran to him and hugged him tightly. "Grandfather! I had missed you so much!" 

Ed patted her back and said, "Same here Adri. How could I miss my child's competition?"

"Now that you are here, please stay back for the entire competition," she urged, afraid that he would go the next day. 

"That goes without saying," he replied with a smile. 

Adrianna jumped with ecstasy in his arms and Ed laughed at his little grandchild. 

Adrianna turned her attention to Dmitri and Cora. Cora was sitting there with her arms folded in her lap. She went to Cora, scared that Cora would again say something nasty. 

But what Cora said made her eyes become wider than the field she was competing in. 

"You did well Adrianna," said Cora.

"Th- Thank you," Adrianna managed to reply. 

"I want you to focus for the next fight and hence I will not allow you to sleep with Dmitri. He only knows how to disturb people. You will be sleeping with me," ordered Cora. 

Adrianna couldn't even blink an eye. Dmitri was shocked beyond words. His mother had asked him to take her to be with Adrianna when he had gone back to the werewolf realm. He was shocked to hear what his mother wanted and had rubbed his ears if he had listened to her correctly, but that was what she wanted. 

"Dmitri, once this issue of the girl which your father pledged you to is solved, I would like to go and meet Adrianna."

Dmitri had nodded. He didn't know what was it that caused his mother to say that but that was an opportunity he couldn't let go. However, he didn't know that she would come up with such a horrendous idea for him and Adrianna. 

Ed also nodded in agreement to Cora's statement. "Yes Adrianna, your mother-in-law is speaking correct. You should sleep with her." Ed looked at Dmitri and remembered how he had pursued Adrianna before marriage when all he would do is stay with her at night, which used to make him feel very uncomfortable in his own house. 

"But mother…" protested Dmitri. "You can't do that. I don't distract Adrianna. I only encourage her. She needs my help because the two of talk about her competitors a lot. We talk about the strategy too." 

Cora looked at him with blazing eyes. "Dmitri!" she shouted. "Don't you want your wife to win? Don't act like a child who is being removed from his favorite toy! Adrianna will sleep in my bedroom now." 

Adrianna and Dmitri were both crying inside. 

Ed looked at Cora and nodded. "I support you Cora." Saying that Ed sat beside Adrianna. 

Cora said, "After dinner, come to my room. When is your next competition?" 

"It is tomorrow. My next competitor is already decided," she said feeling low. 

"Who is your competitor?" 

"We don't know that. It will be disclosed when we reach there. All I know is the name of the people who have won the first round."

"Hmm…" Cora became pensive. "Okay, today in the evening after dinner, I will discuss the strategy with you for each of them." 

"But mother, please since it is me and Adri always deciding things, she will become confused with you." Dmitri wanted to dissuade his mother at all costs.

"I have been into so many strategies regarding wars before you became the Supreme Alpha, and now you are doubting me?" she said with a hint of anger. 

Ed nodded heavily. 

While Adrianna was wondering what had happened to her mother in law in the last few days that she had changed so much, what she said next made Ed jump in his seat!
