Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 48 - How Could He Be Cold?

Adrianna opened the door immediately to check whether the living room windows were open or closed. She realized that the cottage windows were usually open because werewolves typically had a very high body temperature.

But Dmitri was a werewolf, so how could he be cold? ??

She quickly closed all the windows and turned the heater on.

"Sorry, I forgot. Hope this will make you more comfortable," she said sweetly before leaving to lock herself in her bedroom again. Tonight was going to be very difficult for her.

She switched off the lights and went to her bed. She laid down and kept looking in the direction where Dmitri was. Biting her lower lip again, she let out a sigh. She turned and looked outside the window. The waning moon was about to come and she remembered her father's words. She would rather run away to an unknown location than be forced to mate with the supreme alpha.

She couldn't sleep for more than an hour as she kept tossing and turning. Her thoughts kept wandering to Dmitri and the idea of what it would be like to be with him. She didn't want to hurt him though. Finally, when sleep touched her eyelids, she did sleep. It just wasn't as good as it had been usually.

Dmitri was waiting for her to sleep. Quietly, he had gone and sat near her door after switching off the heater and opening the windows. He smiled at himself for wanting to see her one way or the other, regardless it it was on some stupid pretext or not. When he sensed that it had become relatively quiet inside her room, he opened her door with the key he had stolen earlier and went to lay near her.

The day she had gone to her father's place, the thought that he wouldn't be able to see her for the next two days made him so angry that he didn't know what to do. He had run around in the jungles to loosen up his pent up emotions, but it hadn't worked. He had snapped on his people and refused to see any of them. He had to be with her. That day when his trusted people had informed him that Adrianna was in danger, he had run to her. If it hadn't been for Nate, he would have killed Rufus.

He shuddered as he thought about what Rufus could have done to her, and dipped his face in her neck to smell her to calm down his anxieties. "Adri, I can't be without you now… How do I find more ways to be near you?" he said before slowly drifting off.

Adrianna was already in her dreamland where they were running from summit to summit.

The next day when Adrianna woke up, she found that Dmitri had already left. He had neatly folded the comforter and had arranged them on the sofa. She smiled and went to dress up for college. Her grandfather was expected to return the next day and she eagerly awaited his arrival. She had so much to talk about.

She reached the college five minutes before her class started and ran there. Howard was watching her from his room as she ran across the garden and jumped over the bushes to reach the class.

All of a sudden, Adrianna bumped into someone. She looked up and found that she had bumped into Howard. Not believing her luck, she apologized to him profusely and ran away. She wondered, "Where did Howard appear from?" As far as she had seen, the aisle had been empty since classes were about to start in two minutes.

Howard grinned from behind.

Shaking her head, she reached her class and walked in just in time. She saw that Niiya was sitting in the last row.

Since class was about to begin, Adrianna found a chair nearby and sat over there.

Niiya came over to her as soon as the class was over. He held her hand and took her out, much to her surprise. Once they were in the garden and in a secluded spot, he asked her, "Adrianna where were you this entire weekend? I must have called you so many times!"

Adrianna lowered her head. How could she tell Niiya what had happened to her? Niiya had no clue that she was a wolf. She simply said, "I went to visit my relatives."

"So? Was there no cell phone signal?" he asked, annoyed at her answer.

"No, there wasn't…" Which was the truth.

Niiya thought that Adrianna was angry with him. He immediately softened his tone and said, "I am sorry about that day Adrianna. I didn't know that wine would knock me out. I mean, I didn't know that I had such a low tolerance. I woke up the next day feeling groggy and called you so many times, but the call wasn't going through."

"It's okay Niiya. There's always a next time." She smiled to pacify him.

Niiya grinned thinking of the next opportunity he would grab.

However, there was someone a little far behind whose brows had knitted as his face darkened upon seeing the two of them smiling at each other.
