Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 399 - The Ugly Truth

Fleur bowed and smiled back at Adrianna and mounted her broom. She was longing to go and meet Liam but they have had a fight. The agony and misery only increased when she couldn't even mentally communicate with him. Whenever her hand went to the mark that Liam had given her, she would become restless. She had tried tying a thick scarf around it so that even when she was careless, her hand wouldn't go there. Although she succeeded, what about her heart? 

Fleur sighed and waited for Adrianna and Dmitri to sit in the carriage. The carriage was airborne and Fleur commanded her troupe to fly with them. When they reached the Royal Palace, she was about to take her leave when Adrianna said, "Fleur, I would like to go to the Werewolf Realm in an hour, so be ready."

"Yes, my Queen," Fleur said reluctantly. She was hesitant to meet Liam. It was him who had been fighting with her and so she was internally conflicted. She wanted to meet him desperately but was too angry to see his face. 

Adrianna was very tired and she wanted to sleep, but it was necessary for her to go to the Werewolf Realm only for Liam and Fleur. She wanted to resolve this problem as quickly as possible. 

She went to her bedroom and wore casual and comfortable clothes. 

"I think we should visit the market in the Human Realm to buy clothes for you, Adri," said Dmitri as he noticed her changing her clothes. 

"Why?" asked Adrianna with a frown on her face. God only knows how many clothes her closet had in this world. Every time she would open it, there were so many according to her mood and occasion that she was spoilt for choice.

"Because there you are going to get appropriate clothes for a pregnant woman," he replied matter-of-factly with a shrug. 

"Dmitri, don't worry, I have plenty over here too!" she dissuaded him.

"We will see…" he said and lolled on the bed. "By the way, why were you feeling miserable back in the Ministry Block? I became worried," he asked as he propped his head on his hand and looked at her. 

Adrianna sighed. "I will let you know when the time comes…" 

Dmitri didn't pursue the matter. He beckoned her to come to him and she obliged. When she lied next to him, he curled his arms around her lovingly and said, "Adri, I want you to feel pleasant and happy." He kissed her forehead and smelled her. 

She smiled as he buried his face in the crook of her neck and stroked his hair. She would love to feel happy in his company and just be his wife and give birth to their baby. However, the life of a ruler was different. The college days were absolutely great in front of her current time. 

An hour later, Fleur had created the portal through which she walked into the Werewolf Realm along with Dmitri. Fleur was about to leave when Adrianna asked her to stay there for some more time and wait for her in the main hall. 

Meanwhile Dmitri had communicated to Liam about his arrival and the fact that he had to meet him. So when they went to the main hall after fifteen minutes, they found Liam and Fleur sitting on opposite sofas and avoiding to look at each other. The situation was pretty awkward for both of them. Adrianna went to sit next to Fleur while Dmitri waved a casual hello to Liam and went to meet his parents. 

"How are you Liam?" asked Adrianna as she sat next to Fleur. 

"Good," came a short answer as a cursory glance was passed towards Fleur too. "Why am I here?" 

Adrianna tilted her head and looked at him. She wasn't able to understand as to how she should give the information to them. She started slowly. "There is something that you both have to know…" 

"If you are here to talk on Fleur's behalf, then I am not interested Adri," said Liam and turned his gaze away. 

Fleur became angry and crossed her arms against her chest withdrawing herself even more. She pursed her lips and fought the tears that were choking her throat now. 

"Liam, you have to understand the repercussions of marrying Fleur," said Adrianna looking intently at him. 

"I understand them very well, Adrianna. She would never stay with me and would continue to serve as your bodyguard. She doesn't want to give up on that and this is the reason why we are not seeing each other. As my wife, I would want her to be with me but who would have known that my fated mate was someone who didn't want to live with me? So if she wants, we can go through the rituals of unmarking her. I will call the shaman today," said Liam as anger rose within him. 

Adrianna was shocked. "Unmarking your soulmate is not possible. Had she been not your soul mate, that scar should have healed. Don't you know that?" she scolded him for being so careless in answering her. 

"What do you want from me, Adri?" he asked as he turned to face the two women in front of him. "I will marry her only if she agrees to live with me. I want her to stay with me as my wife." 

"If Fleur leaves the post of my security guard, she will turn into a mortal…" said Adrianna inviting a shock from both of them. 

"What?"

"What?" 

The two of them said it together loudly. 

Adrianna sighed and said, "Yes, that is the ugly truth. You have to give up being a witch if you choose to marry Liam. So it is for both of you to decide what is it that the two of you want." 

Liam was wide eyed. "Please explain," he said with seriousness. 

Adrianna went to tell everything that Isidorus had told her without leaving a detail. It was important that both of them knew and made an informed decision. 

At the end of it, there were tears in Fleur's eyes and Liam was with a heavy weight in his heart. Either she remained immortal or marries Liam. What a choice? This was painful… She got up and ran outside to the garden because she had begun to feel winded. She was owned by the Royal Palace. Price of her life. 

Fleur reached the garden but she didn't stop there. She had to see her father. 

Suddenly the ground beneath her rumbled.
