"There are many healing potions that require the blood of a close relative. We are keeping your sister safe in order to create those potions. The healer has already experinted on several potions with her blood. She can be used to create potions that can heal you or increase your power. Being your blood sister, she is going to be your dicine for the rest of her life," replied Ein without a sliver of sympathy.
Adrianna shuddered. Kayla had beco the guinea pig for the wizard kingdom. Feeling depressed, Adrianna didn't wish to go any further.
It was already evening when they returned to the royal palace. That night, she didn't have any appetite to eat her food. She rembered how Kayla would never play with her. Kayla would never let her play with her toys. It pained her to rember how she had sabotaged her dress when Dmitri had co to et her and how she had tried to kill her before her wedding. Adrianna wondered if she had any good mories associated with Kayla.
All of a sudden, she had a mory that flashed across her mind – bats flying all around her as she ducked to save herself from them. She sprang up from the bed feeling very perturbed. What was that? She went to pick up the glass of water that had been kept on the bedside table and drank it. She took a deep breath.
Adrianna realized that she was getting into a habit of sulking and being depressed whenever she thought about her family. All of a sudden, she rembered her grandfather. She had an urge to see him, but it was already late at night and she was sure that he must be sleeping. She walked to the balcony and stared at the stars. She smiled as she looked at them; Gregory must be amongst them sowhere…
She turned to the side, wondering where Ed could be. Once Dmitri was free, she would definitely take him to et Ed.
Fleur ca back the next morning to bring her to the academy.

"Dmitri, now that you have Adrianna, don't you feel the slightest bit of emotion concerning the fact that I am her father? I feel very disrespected in front of all the chiefs when they say that I am hardly a speck in the werewolves' territory. After all, I am the father of your wife, which ans that you should give a reasonable amount of land to rule over. It only goes with the status of being your father-in-law," said Kuro in a eting that had been arranged by the Lake Moon Pack chief. The eting was being held at the chief's house.
Dmitri had co to the boundary of the Lake Moon Pack with his army. He had gone inside the territory with Nate and few other mbers of his army to et Kuro and the other chief who he was allying with. The eting had been called to find a solution to end the rebellion.
"Kuro, the Lake Moon Territory will never be yours. As a matter of fact, I am planning to take over your territory as well because I am fed up with your constant demand for this land. So why don't I tell you what to do. You have two options: a, you gracefully retreat and perhaps I won't co after you, or b, you wage war against and I take the Red Moon Territory when I win."
Dmitri leaned forward and rested his chin in his hand. "This is my final offer to you. I will wait a day before taking action."
Kuro narrowed his eyes at Dmitri. "Adrianna is not going to like this!"
"Don't worry about Adrianna. She already told to stay safe and eliminate my enemy if needed."
"You are lying!" shouted Kuro. He knew that Adrianna was highly concerned about them even though she knew her place in the family.
"Of course not. Why would I lie about anything related to my wife?" replied Dmitri very calmly. "She knows the entire truth about her birth. So there's no point in harping over your relationship with her."
Kuro clenched his jaw. Reinjie, who was sitting right next to his father, quickly understood the situation and said, "Father, let's go. We will send our final reply to them later."
Kuro and Reinjie got up from their chairs and left the room in anger while the other chief continued to sit. He looked at Dmitri and said, "Where is your mother? I would like to speak to her."
"She hasn't co with us."
That chief spat, "It was your mother who called the shaman to throw your wife out. What makes you think that you will win from us if you cannot win against your own mother? Soon you will lose!"
Dmitri rested back in his chair and said, "What makes you think I don't know about that?"
The chief left the eting room in a huff.
In the evening, war was announced.
