Chapter 68 - Her Secret (1/2)

Kuro mentally communicated to everyone in the pack about Adrianna's decision, and the entire pack was jubilant. They asked him about the date they were to be married, but he had to mentally block them because there was a huge havoc regarding the date.

Unable to wait any longer, Dmitri said, ”I will come back during in the next waxing moon to take her with me.”

”No, she can't marry during the next waxing moon,” Ed loudly said from across the room. Dmitri looked at him with a murderous glint in his eyes. He started walking towards him with clenched fists, but before he could get any closer, Adrianna stood in between them. She shielded Ed and faced Dmitri., ”Don't touch him.” She paused and added, ”Come to my room. I have to discuss my terms with you for marrying me.”

Dmitri nodded. Ed became nervous. Why was she entering this marriage? She was originally so against it. What had Dmitri told her that she was accepting him all of a sudden?

Adrianna went to her room and closed the door to change out of the dress while Dmitri waited for her outside. When she opened the door after five minutes, she found him leaning against the wall beside the door. She called him inside.

When they were seated, she said, ”I want you to release Niiya now.”

”I will, but what is the guarantee that you will not just go back on your decision?” he asked.

”No Dmitri, I promise that I will marry you. Just release Niiya,” she pleaded.

Dmitri grinned and mentally communicated to Nate and Liam to release Niiya safely.

He crossed his arms across his chest and said, ”I will come during the next waxing moon to get you.”

”I cannot marry you during that time,” said Adrianna, looking down at in her lap.

”Why not?” he asked, intrigued by her answer.

”Because during full moons, I shape shift involuntarily and run amuck in the jungles. I don't recognize anyone. It's a curse I live with…” She had to tell him her secret.

As expected, Dmitri was fairly surprised. ”Okay… so does this mean…”

”It means that during the full moon, I will not recognize you and perhaps will even fight you if you try to stop me.”
