Adrianna was shocked beyond words when she heard Mihr's disclosure. There were so obstacles at every step, so danger always lurking around her. Even Nefasky… Then what was she even thinking? She should have known about it long back when she ca to know that Nefasky was Mihr's daughter.
Mihr was staring right into her eyes as though he would bore a hole in her head. "Can't you do a small thing sincerely? I am here trying to give you a chance to beco the queen, and you are spending ti with these fools?"
He called his man and asked, "What ti is it?"
"It is 4PM," he replied.
He pushed Adrianna ahead and said, "It is ti to go back ho. Co with to ho in the carriage." Then he looked at her friends and added, "These fools can find their way back."
Adrianna panicked. "But- but I can't go with you," she protested.
"What do you an you can't go back with ? You stupid girl, go and sit in the carriage!" she shouted at her.
Lile and other boys looked at Adrianna as their mouth fell open. They started walking towards Adrianna but Mihr's n imdiately blocked them. Angry at his daughter's resistance, Mihr held her hand and dragged her to the carriage as Lile and boys kept looking at her helplessly.
Mihr shoved in the carriage. Adrianna sat in Mihr's carriage quietly. Goose bumps lined her skin as to what would happen if he would know her secret. She started biting her nails. She glanced at him from the corner of her eyes as her anxieties increased.
"If it had been any other day, I would have just grounded you for two days, but this is important, so I won't ground you but my n are going to stay outside the academy everyday to report about you. They will be present everywhere in the wizard kingdom, so don't ss it!" he lashed at her and warned her.
Adrianna nodded.
"I had asked you to keep a tab on Adrianna. She is our target right now. Don't you rember what Cy told you?" he continued.
"Cy!" Adrianna blurted sounding shocked. She closed her mouth with her hands imdiately.
Mihr narrowed his eyes as though she was hiding sothing from him. "What is it?" he demanded to know.
Adrianna shook her head, "Nothing- nothing- I am- I am- sorry father," she said.
Mihr looked at her with blazing eyes and then slowly his frown cleared much to Adrianna's relief. He relaxed and sat back in the seat. "It's okay Nefasky. But from now on you should be careful. Adrianna is way too intelligent and smart. She has a lot of experience as compared to you. She has interacted with humans, she is half werewolf and a half witch. I an what else would you want from your ruler? The fact that she is so poised always gives shudders. I want to know what is going on inside that sharp brain of hers and that is why I have asked to keep a watch on her."
Adrianna nodded. "I will be more careful from now on."
Mihr looked away and then remained silent throughout the journey.
It was extrely easy for wizard or witch to be disguised as soone else. Although it was difficult for the eyes of humans and werewolves to detect the disguise, it was very easy for the wizards or witches. They could tell in a minute who that was. Lile and the boys were extrely worried about it when Adrianna was caught as Nefasky. However, they were even more shocked when a wizard like Mihr couldn't detect the disguise. Was Adrianna's magic so powerful that her disguise was undetectable? When they were coming to her rescue, although Mihr's n stopped them, even Adrianna glanced at them and warned them not to do anything. They decided to keep their lips sealed.
The carriage stopped in front of Mihr's house in the second realm. It was a palatial house and Adrianna couldn't help but appreciate the luxurious surroundings she had stepped in. She followed Mihr. Mihr started going to his bedroom, and she followed him up the stairs to his room. Mihr stopped midway and looked down at her, "What do you want?"
"Nothing…"
"Then why are you following ? Go to your room!" he barked.
Adrianna turned imdiately back and started going down the stairs. Her eyes darted around to find Nefasky's room. She had to be there as soon as possible and then disappear. All of a sudden a lady called her, "Nefasky, what are you doing here? I just saw you at the pool." She looked extrely well dressed and bore a strong resemblance to Nefasky.
"I- I forgot sothing…" she replied and then rushed inside.
"Tell what do you want Nefasky," shouted Nefasky's mother behind her.
"Nothing," she said and ran away.
Nefasky's mother frowned and left shaking her head.
Adrianna ran inside a room that she thought was empty. She closed the doors behind her and breathed a sigh of relief. She could now create the vortex. Just as she was about to do that, a boy walked out of a closet.
