Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 44 - Don’t Wear It Again

Kuro had asked Kayla to be dressed in her most beautiful dress and to be as charming as possible in order to appeal to the supreme alpha. Kayla had happily agreed and had been inside her room for more than an hour, along with her nanny, dressing up as pretty as possible.

Sam saw Adrianna leaving but he didn't stop her. He thought that it was better Adrianna never returned. He mentioned this to his father who was hardly bothered. ??

Kuro had given his servants instructions to prepare good food for dinner. After all, not all chiefs had the honor of receiving the presence of the supreme alpha. Kuro was proud of the fact that the supreme alpha had asked for his daughter's hand in marriage.

He had asked his sons to prepare a gala in honor of the supreme alpha.

It was only the afternoon, but Kayla hadn't yet decided on what to wear. She was hardly finding any dresses that looked good on her. She must have tried over fifty dresses. In a fit of anger, she went to Adrianna's room to ask for her help, but she discovered that Adrianna had left. She scoured through Adrianna's wardrobe and found a beautiful deep blue dress. It seemed new and Kayla took it with a huge smile. She had finally found the dress to wear in front of the supreme alpha.

As the night came, everybody was over enthusiastic. Kayla was bustling with energy. She was wearing that deep blue dress and had put down her hair. She was looking lovely and every person looked at her with admiration. She was confident in herself.

The supreme alpha arrived at 7PM along with ten more people who stationed themselves outside. Only his beta came with him inside in the house. He looked so handsome in a black shirt and black pants with his hair brushed back that Kuro was surprised. He was happy for Kayla.

Kuro greeted him and guided him to the main hall where his sons were sitting. As soon as they saw him, they got up to greet him. It was indeed an honor to meet him. He was exuding an aristocratic and domineering king-like aura which made everybody around him accept his authority. With a steel expression, he sat down on the sofa.

Everyone fell silent. Nate spoke, "Hello, this is the blue moon alpha, Dmitri Volkov, and I am his beta, Nate."

They all bowed to him.

There was an awkward silence again. Dmitri was dying to see Adrianna and find out whether she was fine or not, but she was nowhere to be seen. He glanced around quickly to check if she was hiding anywhere, but when he realized that she wasn't there, his face fell.

Kuro noticed and thought that Dmitri was looking for his daughter. He knew that Dmitri had never seen Adrianna, so presenting Kayla would be for the best. Dmitri would hardly know the difference.

Wine was served to all the men. Then, Kuro asked the servants to lay out the dinner and call Kayla over. Kayla came out with a shy smile. When she saw Dmitri, her eyes became wide. She was thanking her stars that she had the opportunity to meet such a beautiful man in her life. She was even happier because it was him who had asked for her hand.

She came and sat with her brothers opposite Dmitri and said hello.

Dmitri greeted her back and anxiously looked around again. Where was she?

Kuro introduced him to Kayla. "Dmitri, this is my daughter Kayla."

Dmitri nodded. He noticed that she was wearing the dress Adrianna had worn at the creek. He stayed quiet and sipped his wine. "Okay Adrianna, two can play this game," he thought.

Kayla noticed that Dmitri was sipping his wine. She said, "Would you like to ask me any questions?"

Dmitri looked at her strangely and said with a shrug, "No."

Kayla thought that he was accepting her without any terms. She couldn't believe her luck. She smiled at him nervously.

Reinjie interjected, "Why don't you and Kayla take a walk outside? That way you can get to know each other better."

Dmitri shot him a glance. "Why would I want to know Kayla?" There was some misunderstanding going on here. He looked at Nate who returned his gaze with a shrug.

Reinjie was shocked at his curt answer, but he answered politely. "Well, you asked for her hand in marriage. It is only suitable that the two of you talk to each other in private and know more about each other."

Kayla's smile grew wider as she looked at him with anticipation.

Dmitri understood Kuro's game. He became annoyed. Keeping his wine glass on the table, he looked at Kuro and said, "It seems you don't understand what I want. I want the hand in marriage of your daughter who had fought against our forces. As far as I remember, my people had clearly conveyed this to you. So get her here in front of me – NOW!" He said 'now' so loudly that Kuro jumped. Kayla's face fell. She looked stupid and seemed to be on the verge of tears.

Dmitri turned to look at Kayla and said, "That dress belongs to Adrianna. Don't wear it again."
