Adrianna was really peeved Dmitri. "Are you out of your mind?" she said with her eyes wide in anger. "Niiya is here only to pay his respect to the Queen of the Wizard Kingdom. Had soone else would have been the Queen instead of he would have co still! He is only doing his duty."
The carriage landed in the gardens of the Royal Palace and Dmitri opened the door to stomp out of it. Adrianna followed him inside. Once they reached the main hall, Dmitri stopped and turned to look at her. "I would have understood if he just wanted to pay his respects by being present during the ceremony. What was the point of putting those balloons high up in the air amongst those lanterns?" he said pointing up.
"That only symbolizes harmony between the Human and Wizard Realms. There was nothing else!" reasoned Adrianna.
Dmitri wasn't convinced. He harrumphed and turned away from her to look at the wall where her mother's portrait was hanging.
Adrianna was now really agitated. She had been explaining him ti and again that there was nothing he should be insecure about but things were not getting in his mind. "Dmitri, I am telling you this the last ti. You are the only person in my path of love. The only person who belongs to in true sense is you and no one else. Not even the baby who is in . You are going to be my lifeti companion. Our baby will leave the nest and perhaps fly away or maybe he would continue to stay with us, who knows? But the two of us are soul mates. We are bonded with this mark that you have given . I can never leave you even if you want to. Stop acting like a baby and accept Niiya the way he is. I won't change my stance towards him because he is representative of the Human Realm and a friend whom I have known before you. So, please stop with this nonsense!"
Dmitri was stunned to hear her. In his heart he knew that she was right but what was it that wasn't allowing him to accept all this? He didn't look at her and kept standing like a rigid man, that he was behaving as throughout the past few hours.
Seeing him unmoved by her explanation, Adrianna just left him there and walked away to the bedroom. Her mood was spoiled and she had a dinner to attend. In the anwhile Dmitri called Fleur to make a portal for him. He went to the Werewolf Realm to be with his parents.
When the servants inford Adrianna about Dmitri's departure, she was at a loss of words. She felt bad that instead of understanding, he just left. At first she thought she would also follow him there but then she went against that idea. She wondered if he would return for dinner. If he wouldn't, it would be such a bad image for her. She didn't want to tell everyone about her quarrels with her husband. Plus how could she go alone in the party now that even Niiya would be there. She looked at her tummy and said, "Can't you talk to your father? Why is it that you only talk to ? Drill so sense in his brain. And when you are born, please be born with so sense especially about won. Won are very tender species. You got to handle them with care or they tend to get broken fast…"
Adrianna lied down on the bed after removing her robe. Even though she wanted to think about the issues of the Kingdom, her mind only wandered back to Dmitri. Gently she stroked his pillow and then the sheet where he had lied. She felt lonely…
After Niiya had left along with Ziu and Isidorus, Ziu had requested Niiya to co with him to his ho. Seeing how friendly Ziu was, Niiya didn't mind. Although Isidorus had told him that he could stay with him till he was in the Wizard Kingdom, and urged him to co with him in order to rest, Ziu insisted that Niiya should accompany him. Ziu wanted to know the extent of his relationship with Adrianna.
Niiya was impressed by Ziu's hospitality and imdiately beca free with him. He was also in awe of the man who was so handso. Such combination was rare in the Human Realm, intelligence, humility and handsoness. Overall he found Ziu to be very amiable. Slowly after so jokes and a glass of wine, Ziu started asking him personal questions.
In the Werewolf Realm, Dmitri had walked straight in his room. He was in no mood to talk to anyone, so he went to his bed. Sohow he wanted to go back to Adrianna instead decided to stay back. Her love was like a puzzle for him sotis. He wanted to run away from her, yet he wanted to stay close to her. After soti of brooding, he needed so diversion so he went to et Nate and Ookashi.
Ookashi had been doing extrely well. She had adapted to the Werewolf Realm so nicely that it was as if she belonged to this place only.
When Dmitri went there, he saw that Nate was pampering Ookashi to eat sothing as all she was doing these days was throwing up everything she ate. He was worried that she had a wolf child in her womb and they were known to be ferociously hungry. He was scared that she wouldn't eat well the child born would be thin or malnourished.
When Nate saw Dmitri, he was very happy. The two friends gave a bear hug other as Ookashi watched them with a smile.
"Dmitri! Seeing you after so long!" exclaid Ookashi as she sprang out of her chair and hugged him.
"Be careful Ookashi," warned Nate as she got up with a jerk in her body.
"Hmm…" replied Dmitri. "How are you doing?"
"I am good!" she said with excitent. "How is Adri?"
"She is good too," he replied with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
Ookashi imdiately knew there was sothing wrong. She didn't say anything to him at that ti. "You guys sit, let prepare so nice snacks for you."
Dmitri nodded and sat down on the sofa. He rested his head behind and looked up in blank space.
"Dude, if you are having issues with Adri, no point in brooding," said Niiya.
