Chapter 364 - Battle Between Wizards And Neotides (15)
Adrianna ran to the higher peaks that surrounded the area. It was so chilly that small flakes of snow were falling around her. She ran at a speed that Dmitri was unable to follow her. Every now and then Adrianna would stop to look at the moon and howl loudly. Its rays were soothing her nerves and as she would look at it, her urge to go to be with it only increased. It was at these times that Dmitri would pick his pace and come near her. However. He always maintained distance because he was afraid as to what happened with him long back when he had discovered that she was the rogue wolf.
She had to be driven towards the neotides, however, he wasn't able to understand how to draw her attention to him. The problem was that he didn't want to go close to her and so she was only going towards the higher peaks. He couldn't stop her. If he drew attention, then he wouldn't be able to match her speed and she would attack him within a short period of time. He saw her stopping again and howling towards moon. Soon she picked up speed and ran in the opposite direction.
??It was midnight now and the moon was in the center of the sky. Adrianna would leap as soon as she reached the peaks of the hills but would fall on the other side. Dmitri was scared that the baby might get affected. He had to find a way to distract her.

It had been almost midnight and the wall was slowly breaking. Vikra could feel success this close to him and that feeling was enough for him to keep breaking the wall. He couldn't help thinking how he would capture Adrianna and how he would use her powers to control the world. All he needed was one session with her and he knew how to control her. He increased the amount of energy passing through his wand. Several more blasts could be heard.

"Where is the queen?" shouted Mihr on top of his voice becoming frustrated by the fact that she wasn't coming when they needed her the most. Was this the way she was abandoning them? Had she become scared of Vikra?
Ziu joined in, "Where is Adrianna? This is unacceptable. We are standing here and fighting for the Kingdom while she is not even interested in seeing how we are doing?"
Isidorus roared, "Stay quiet! Do not talk about the queen like that. These are her orders. We have to stay inside the Kingdom and stop Vikra as much as possible. We have to make sure that we are able to hold this until morning."
When Isidorus shouted at them, they became scared and didn't utter a word after that. All of them concentrated on holding their bastion.

Adrianna had gone too far in the opposite direction. Dmitri had to divert her attention now else it would be too late. This time when she stopped and sat down, he went dangerously close to her and let out a soft growl. Adrianna looked around the plain fields and slopes in front of her. The vegetation around her wasn't that thick, only some tall grass and few bushes were present. The snow that was falling around them had intensified. Suddenly she saw movement behind her and immediately stood up as if ready to attack. She saw a creature behind her at a distance. She glared at it.
When Dmitri saw those golden yellow eyes staring at him, he became scared. He knew that now she would charge at him. Slowly he started going back while Adrianna started coming nearer. They kept growling at each other for some time when suddenly Adrianna broke into a run. Dmitri was calculating her movements and the moment she ran towards him, he ran in the direction he had to take her. He thought that before she could overcome him, he had to run as far as possible in the direction where all the neotides were present.
Adrianna was extremely angry with the intruder who had stopped her pursuit to her favorite thing in the world. She chased him with all her might to take him down as soon as possible but he was running very fast.
Dmitri was running through the hilly terrain in a way that he was keeping himself close to the boulders, trees or caves or any huge impediment that he could see. However, this strategy was slowing down the speed a lot. He had to choose between speed and safety and he had to apply both tactfully.
After chasing him for almost a long time, Adrianna was getting extremely irritated now. In her anger, once when she came very close to him, she leapt into the air to attack him, but just because he was near a waterfall, he jumped right into it and saved himself by running out of it quickly while Adrianna landed behind him.
For Adrianna there were no tricks under that curse. It was only rage and she couldn't act tactfully.
Dmitri ran for the next two hours towards the place where the battle was about to begin. He was hoping that Isidorus and rest were able to hold the bastion until them. He was tired now and so wished that Fleur were there to create a portal for them. Even though he was tired, Adrianna was chasing him with the same vigor and speed. Dmitri was afraid that she might attack him at any moment now. Soon they would enter the field outside the Wizard Kingdom where all the neotides were present in large numbers. He just had to keep himself going until then.
As he neared the battlefield, he could hear the neotides growling and howling in large numbers. Suddenly something very scary occurred to him. Something, which they completely forgot about. Adrianna's fur was golden yellow and that would stand up against the grey furred neotides. He was running at a very high speed and as soon as he thought about it, he screeched himself to a stop and turned. He had to stop his wife from getting killed.
Adrianna also stopped, a little surprised as to how come the creature in front of him stopped. Suddenly she leapt.
