Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Every gesture of Dmitri's was comforting. She loved being fed like a baby. He kept giving her food while just rested her head on his shoulders and munched it. They went upstairs to the bedroom after eating dinner. 

While they were lying down side by side, Adrianna said, "How was your hunting time with the pack? Did you all catch something good?" 

Dmitri laughed, "Of course yes! The winters are arriving and we have to stock up our food godowns otherwise how are we going to survive it? Even though all the packs hunt their own food, when their stock lessens, they come to my pack for help."

"In that I am sure there must be packs who would hardly put effort in hunting, as they always have you as a backup plan," remarked Adrianna feeling that this was not justified. 

Dmitri laughed at her naivety. "It doesn't work that way dear," he said brushing her fair skin on the cheeks. "They all hunt. Hunting is the primal nature of the werewolves. We hunt when we are hungry and it can become dangerous when we get hungry and don't get food. All the packs search for their food during this time." 

"Hmm…" 

"Tomorrow you will enter into the competition arena?" he asked. 

"Yes, I am scared Dmitri," she replied as she dug her face in his chest while he wrapped his legs around her. 

"Its only one night darling. It's a lot of wilderness. Find a good spot before the night and stay hidden there."

"I will do that but I am scared that no student comes there around me," she answered. "We are going to the place where Ed is. If Ed comes out, his safety will be in jeopardy. I don't want him to come out during that time." 

"I am sure he had been informed about it Adrianna," said Dmitri trying to allay her fears. Then he thought of a plan and said, "Adri, why don't you come near the cave entrance an hour before the night falls? I will keep the entrance open for you and you can stay there for the entire night." 

"And then jeopardize your safety? Never! Plus you are not allowed to go there."

"I am not allowed to come inside the arena, but how does that cave fall in the arena? It is outside," he spoke trying to drill sense into her.

Adrianna thought for a while and then answered, "Dmitri that would mean that I have left the competition grounds, which isn't allowed."

"That is the best solution Adri. That way no one will ever discover your secret."

Adrianna was tempted to do what Dmitri had said. "You are right Dmitri, at least others would be safe…" She sat down and then instructed him, "Open the entrance an hour before, okay? I will handle myself until then." 

"Sure darling."

"As soon as you have opened it, go away from there," she said and then suddenly she remembered what had happened last time when they were almost attacked by Cy's man. "Dmitri, no! Don't even think of coming there. It is too risky."

"Don't worry Adri. I can do it along with Fleur. Both of us would be able to carry out the plan nicely. Just leave it to me, okay?" 

Adrianna shook her head. This was just too dangerous for Dmitri. If he failed to go back on time, he would have to face Adrianna and if he manages to go back on time, he might have to face danger in the jungle. Thinking that Adrianna shuddered. "No, you will not come anywhere near it!" she shouted at him. "That's it." 

She hugged him tightly like a scared cat. She whispered, "I cannot let you get in any danger, and this is not just any danger. This is double of what you are thinking…"

"Hush Adri… calm down. Okay, I won't come but don't get panicky. Let's not think about it any more. Let's just sleep on it. Please?" He stroked her back to calm her nerves. 

Adrianna nodded. This was her battle and she had to emerge out of it as a winner. If she would survive the full moon night, it would become easier. 

Both of them became quiet and tried to sleep but sleep was eluding their eyes. Both were in a lot of tension. They could feel each others pain and it led to sleepless hours. However, none of them spoke, hoping that the other would sleep. Finally both of them slept past midnight and entered their dreamland. 

It had just been a few minutes that Adrianna felt as though she was walking in the air and was sheathed in bright white light. She was startled and walked towards the source of the light. It looked as if there was a person standing there from where the light was being emitted.

Shocked, she asked, "Who are you?" 

"I am Selena, your goddess," came a soft reply. 

Adrianna was speechless. The Moon Goddess!
