Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

"You cannot scare us with any of your stupid tricks Adrianna. You were a sissy before and you are one now. You never deserved the Wizard Kingdom. You never deserved to be the wife of the Alpha. And yet you killed our Master? You should have been killed!" He spat at her. 

At that moment Adrianna threw the orange ball of fire at the logs on which he was standing. 

​​

"No!" the man let out a piercing scream in the Cimmerian shade of the night as the flames engulfed him completely. 

Others flinched. They cried, "Adrianna, we are sorry! Spare us." They whimpered and whined and yammered but Adrianna was in no mood. Her wrath had no limit. 

Adrianna was living, existing in her anger. She was totally lost in that moment as she thought about the torment her husband must have gone through, those werewolves whom these cult members had brought and burnt right there. 

In the fire that broke around the priest\'s son, the room had become brighter and all of them could see Adrianna in her black leathers. They saw the pain and anger in her eyes, the tension of her facial muscles. "Adrianna, have you tossed your rational?" shouted a man. She turned her head to look at him sharply. "Are you going to be so primitive in your thinking? You should pardon us." 

"Pardon you?" she said as she conjured another ball of fire. "Where did your ability for nuance go earlier? Where was your emotional generosity when those werewolves screamed to spare them? What had Deba\'s husband done to you? He had just left his pregnant wife in the hospital and you people killed him. Deba is without a mate, and with a baby girl. Do you even know what it is to be without a mate?" Her palms furiously conjured the fire. Her voice choked when she said through that gravelly rage, "Can you even imagine an iota of connection the mates have? And you dared to take away my Dmitri from me? Do you know what Dmitri is for me?" 

She hurled the ball of fire towards him and within moments, the man was charred to death. It was fitting tit-for-tat treatment.

Haldir watched his Queen without interfering. 

Even though she was blinded by her rage, she was surprisingly satisfied. Amidst the protests and cries, Adrianna made a huge ball of fire and hurled it in the air. The orange ball travelled like a tornado in the cottage burning everything that came in its way, blazing down the wood and the entire structure within seconds. Adrianna and Haldir walked out of the burning cottage that was filled with blood curdling screams of the humans who were a part of pushing her soul mate to this condition. 

No one in the town came to know about it because on the outside, it appeared calm. It was just like any other night. Not a fraction of flame was seen on the outside. 

Adrianna and Haldir got sucked in the vortex and appeared before Isidorus. Lenny wasn\'t there. 

"We have taken her to the wizard prison," Nefasky informed when she saw where Adrianna was looking. 

Adrianna turned her attention to the Healer and asked, "How is he doing?" 

"His body is warming, albeit slowly," he replied. "Whatever it is that you are planning, do it now."

Isidorus clenched his jaw. He knew that if Dmitri ceased to exist, so would Adrianna and so would the baby. That was a risk he didn\'t want to take. He quivered thinking that every time. "We need to go now, Adrianna," he insisted. "We must go to the Land of Gaira." 

"But you said we have an hour, and right now I am left with half an hour. I need to take care of two werewolves here," she replied with a twisted mouth. She was going to take their guts out and give it in their hands. 

Isidorus shook his head. "No, Adrianna. I don\'t want to take chances."

"It is not the question of taking chances. We cannot enter the Land of Gaira unless it is dawn. You said that," she pointed. "So it is better to be here then at the edge of that land." 

Isidorus gritted his teeth. She was so stubborn. "Okay, you have fifteen minutes," he said. If you don\'t come I will leave."

"Agree," she said and immediately got sucked in the vortex along with Haldir. 

When she appeared on the periphery of the Red Moon Pack, all her old memories rushed in. She closed her fists. This place had only given her miseries. Her first thought was to raze it down and kill all those who belonged to this place. Then her mind went to Deba. She was innocent. Dmitri had mentioned about her and Adrianna had felt so sorry for her. They had offered to support her child in case anything happened to her. But Deba had said that she would take care of her baby till she can. Once she wouldn\'t be able to manage, they would know. The news was that Deba was withering away in her mate\'s loss. She was like a walking corpse, dead inside. The pack members had already saved her from one suicide attempt. 

Adrianna gulped. She made her way to Meina\'s house. As she walked, she turned her head to Haldir and said, "Get Uncle Claus out of the house to the border of the pack. Get him in a way that no one comes to know."

"Yes, my Queen," he replied and disappeared into a portal whose coordinates were given by her. 

Adrianna got sucked in a vortex right in Meina\'s room. She was sleeping soundly. Her brother Reinjie was still in the werewolf prison and here she was, sleeping like a baby. "Get up Meina," Adrianna said softly sitting right next to her bed. Meina rubbed her eyes and jumped up when she felt someone\'s presence near her. She growled like a werewolf upon smelling the familiar scent. Next second she jumped out of the bed and stood at the far corner of the room. She switched on the lights. She looked at Adrianna\'s weary face. Her eyes were red as though she had cried buckets. She looked sullen. A satisfying smile spread on her face. "What a wonderful chance to meet you Adrianna," said Meina in the most evil way. "How is Dmitri doing?" 

Back when Adrianna had met Meina, she seemed to be such a lovely girl, so calm, so sound, unlike her brother. What had happened to her?

"He is doing fine," Adrianna returned her smirk. "How are you doing?" she asked, folding her arms across her chest and crossing her legs. 

Meina laughed gently. "Me? I am doing fantastic! In fact, never better." 

"How about you and me take a walk outside?" 

Meina shrugged. "Why would I want to go out with you? So, no, thank you. You may leave," she said waving her hand towards the door indicating Adrianna to leave. 

Adrianna took a deep breath. She snapped her fingers and in the next second a bewildered Meina found herself out of the Red Moon Pack\'s territory. She saw a man with white hair preparing stakes. On one of them Uncle Claus was tied, not in ropes, but in white beams of lights. "Where am I?" Meina snarled, about to shape shift. 

"Run, Meina!" Claus shouted. And in the next second Meina shape shifted. She dashed towards the nearby forest.
