Kayla got up feeling so insulted that she ran inside. Her two brothers didn't know what to do. Adrianna had left with her luggage in the afternoon and no one had stopped her. They were now regretting it. They looked at their father who was shocked.
"B-but Dmitri, Adrianna is not willing to marry anyone. Kayla, on the other hand is older and more beautiful than Adrianna. I am willing to give her hand in marriage to you," said Kuro, trying to salvage the situation.
Dmitri clenched his fists and roared, "Where is your younger daughter? Where have you hidden her?"
"No, no, we haven't hidden her here. You misunderstand. As a matter of fact, she left ho in the afternoon. She has been missing since yesterday and I had sent people to find her in the forests, but no one could find her. She ca back ho today, but you see, she is a loose character girl. She is not appropriate for you. She went out with Rufus," said Kuro without the least bit of sha. This was the best ti to tarnish her image.
Dmitri narrowed his eyes and felt like strangling Kuro. Known for his rcilessness and ruthless nature, Dmitri was exuding murderous aura. Kuro shrank in fear.
Dmitri rose from his chair and picked up the wine glass. He gulped down the wine in one go and threw the glass onto the floor. "I will co here again next Saturday. If I don't find her here, I will make sure that every wolf in the red moon pack is killed." Having finished saying that, Dmitri turned and left with Nate. He paused at the door, turned to Kuro, and added, "I don't want to hear one bad word about Adrianna from you again," before walking out.
Kuro and his two sons, along with the servants, were left behind shuddering in fear. This was the first ti they had seen the supre alpha, and they could understand why he was so feared.
Shaking, Kuro tried to get up from his chair, but he lost his balance and sank back into it. He kept his hand on his head and realized that he shouldn't have taken his chances. After all, how could he fool the supre alpha? The bigger problem that was in front of him was to get Adrianna back and make her agree to the marriage. All of a sudden, everything beca so complicated that he felt dizzy.

Adrianna had left her father's house, never to go back. She had returned to her cottage and had lugged her suitcase inside. She swore she would never go back ho. She wanted to shout at her grandfather for putting her in this situation. If he hadn't insisted that she go there, she wouldn't have been in that situation. She was at least grateful that Rufus hadn't raped her. But she kept wondering what had happened to have prevented him from marking her. Whatever it was, she was thankful.
She didn't want to think much about it. She went to the kitchen to eat, and to her delight, she found so sandwiches that Ed had made for her and had kept in a ziplock bag.
She took them out and ate them. Feeling tired, she went to her bedroom and slept off the feeling.
She woke up late at 6PM and prepared so coffee for herself. She held the cup in her hand and sipped it as she walked over to her study table. She had a lot to study for her internals. She didn't notice the ti, and the next ti she checked, it was already 8PM. She thought of going to the kitchen to prepare another cup of coffee for herself when she again heard utensils clinking. "What is he doing here again?" she thought. She ran to the kitchen and found him trying to find sothing.
"Dmitri, what are you doing here?" she asked, bewildered at his sudden entry.
"Currently, I am trying to find a saucepan. Would you like to have so noodles?" he asked with an amused expression.
Adrianna gaped at him.
"Close your mouth or else a fly will enter," he said with a lopsided smile.
Adrianna went and opened a cupboard to reach for the saucepan before handing it to him.
"Thank you. Now sit there and watch prepare dinner," he said, pointing to a chair.
Adrianna sat down quietly. Although her wolf loved his presence and was actually drooling, she maintained a steel expression.
"Dmitri, why are you here? You should explain yourself. Won't Keisha complain? It is not appropriate for you to co to my house just like that," she said, not showing any signs of the pain she had just gone through.
"Oh shush," he said. "How was your day at your father's place yesterday?" he probed, wondering if she knew anything although it was highly unlikely.
She lowered her head as fresh tears ford in her eyes. She would never show him how weak she was. She quickly gulped down her emotions and prevented the tears from rolling out. "It was fine…"
Her sadness didn't escape Dmitri's eyes. His heart pained for her. He tossed the noodles in the fry pan and said, "Good! So when are you going back again?"
Adrianna sulked. Never.
"Not for a while. I have exams coming up," she answered.
