Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

"But I already know him Isidorus," said Adrianna. 

"I know," he said and walked to where Mihr was standing forcing Adrianna to follow him. 

​​

Ziu and Isidorus, both went along with Adrianna and Dmitri to Mihr. Mihr was standing in a corner surrounded with other men.

When they saw Isidorus and Adrianna approaching towards them, a heavy silence settled over all the people in that group. The silence was thicker than the tension in the atmosphere. Unsettled glances passed around as each of them tried to avoid catching Adrianna\'s glance. Some shifted in their place and others grasped their nervous hands. Mihr looked at them with narrow eyes as he tightened his fist. There was so much ice in the atmosphere that Adrianna felt like fleeing away. 

"Why are we here?" asked Dmitri mentally, as the silence was also agitating him. 

"To meet Mihr," she replied as she stood there nervously holding the side of her gown with one hand. She waited for Isidorus to break the ice. 

"What is going on?" demanded Dmitri. 

"Nothing that carries any significance darling, don\'t worry," she soothed him mentally even though she was appearing slightly nervous on the outside. 

"Oh! There you are!" said Isidorus as soon as he reached there as though meeting an old friend. "There was something very urgent I had to talk to you." 

"Hello Isidorus," said Mihr. Then he looked at Adrianna and Dmitri and nodded courteously. 

"Mihr, I heard that you have given orders to some wizards and witches to go to the human realm. Is that true?" asked Isidorus. 

Mihr looked as though he had been caught red handed. "They are there for an important mission."

"Well, you must tell me what important mission have you sent them for? What\'s so important that we have to send our people to the human realm? Are we not breaking the treaty by sending them there without purpose? You should understand that," chided Isidorus in front of his group of people. 

Mihr gulped for he knew that sending wizards to the human realm without letting the authorities know was illegal. It was gross violation of the treaty. He had sent them to collect data on their mineral reserves, especially gold, but his main purpose was something else. 

Adrianna looked at Isidorus. She raised her wine glass and said, "Isidorus, you do have a valid point, but if it is an important mission like spying on the humans, and if it will yield beneficial results to us, then why not? These are very minor things that wouldn\'t harm the treaty in a large way." 

"Adrianna, this isn\'t right. How can you say like that? After all when you will become the queen you will have to take every single matter very seriously," Isidorus reasoned with her. 

Ziu was taken aback at the way Adrianna was talking. He knitted his eyebrows. Even Dmitri looked displeased. 

Adrianna turned to Mihr and remarked, "I hope those people know what they are doing because we don\'t want untoward attention." 

Mihr breathed a sigh of relief. If Adrianna would be by his side, then he didn\'t have to bother about Isidorus\' accusations. 

Mihr chuckled and said, "Adrianna, I must say that you have a very mature and shrewd thinking." 

"Thanks Mihr," she replied and the ice was broken. Others also chimed in as both Isidorus and Ziu went somewhere else after talking a little more with them. 

Adrianna and Dmitri were left amongst Mihr and his men. Adrianna had gulped the entire glass of wine and picked another one. 

"It seems you are very nervous," said Dmitri provoking her mentally. 

"I am not nervous!" she retaliated. 

"Then why did you pick another glass? Should I show who is the man here by taking that glass out of your hand?" he warned her for the second time. 

"Okay! This is my last glass," she said with anger. 

She turned her gaze to Mihr and fluttered her eyes. "I would like to talk to you about something," she asked as though she was requesting private audience. 

Dmitri was shocked. "What is going on? Do you want me to kill this guy? How dare you flirt with him? He is your father\'s age!" 

"Damn! I am not flirting! I need to talk to him about administrative matters. And if you will keep interfering my thoughts mentally, I will get very angry." Adrianna looked at Dmitri with clenched jaws and half smile. "Plus you can hear what I speak when I go inside. Just don\'t come in between, okay?" 

Dmitri didn\'t answer and glanced away. 

"Please don\'t follow me inside. You will be able to hear what I have in mind from here also," she urged Dmitri asking him not to ruin her plans. 

"Sure Adrianna, what is it?" asked Mihr surprised at Adrianna\'s request.
