Chapter 136 - Vikra's Attack (3)
A coalition with Cy would be extremely fruitful because Cy had insider information on the wizard kingdom, especially on the wizard kingdom's strategies. The only problem was that Vikra had to make Cy believe that he was the right person for Cy to place his trust in considering the current situation.
Even though Cy was tempted to ask why Vikra needed Adrianna, he didn't ask; all he was interested in was the wizard kingdom.
He asked,
"How can I be assured that you only want Adrianna? Because I want her dead and if want Adrianna, then you might protect her.
"
Vikra smirked and whispered,
"I will not protect her, but I will keep her alive as my captive. You see, she is the only person in this world whose soul can fuel me for my entire life. She has so much energy that I can come back to life. So you can have the kingdom, but I will have Adrianna.
"
Cy started laughing. He looked at Vikra and thought that if he had known Vikra beforehand, he would have easily gotten the kingdom already.
"Where have you been all this time?
" he asked Vikra as he started laughing in a most sinister way. His three companions joined in with his laughter.
"Fine. I will help you Vikra,
" said Cy, amused at his luck. He waved his iron hand in the air and inspected whether it was properly fixed or not. After fiddling with it a bit, he found that it felt just like having an actual arm. It seemed as though his arm had actually regrown itself naturally
"What do you want to know?
"
"What route will Howard and Fleur take to go back to the wizard kingdom?
"
---
Adrianna insisted that Dmitri also flew with her. She wanted him to experience everything that she would experience. So while Adrianna was flying with Fleur, Dmitri flew with Howard. Ed was in no mood to fly on those brooms as he found them too uncomfortable, but on Adrianna's insistence, even he flew with one of the wizards whom he kept shouting at for not flying smoothly ever since they had taken off. Rather than enjoying it, Ed was scared that he would fall. How can a thin stick possibly fly with the weight of two people!
Eventually, after constant bickering with the wizard whom he was flying with, he decided to shape shift and run. He even shouted at Howard and asked for Howard to create the portal and let him go directly to the wizard kingdom, but Adrianna kept on laughing at her grandfather and teasing him.
"Grandfather, you old man!
"
"Adrianna, I want to go back to the cottage!
" he shouted at her, provoked by her sentence.
Adrianna laughed again. She was really enjoying the flight.
"I won't let you go anywhere Grandfather!
"
Dmitri, on the other hand, also disliked the new method of commuting. He agreed with Ed and they decided to shape shift and run instead of flying.
It was not long after that Adrianna wished to join him. She asked Fleur to take her to her alpha. Fleur smiled and dived her broom in Dmitri's direction. How she wished that Liam was there with her. She felt stupid for even thinking about it, but she couldn't shirk off the longing feeling no matter how hard she tried - a realization which only made her sadder inside.
As they neared the werewolves' pack, she noticed a familiar looking wolf. Instead of flying towards Dmitri, she stopped her broom right in front of that wolf, making him suddenly stop in his tracks, resulting in him tumbling a few meters away while she watched him with shock and pleasant surprise.
Fleur dismounted her broom and ran towards that wolf, leaving Adrianna to herself on her broom. The broom only recognized its master and started behaving wildly like a mad horse, making Adrianna fall down onto the ground with a loud thud.
"Ouch!
" she shouted, making her alpha turn in her direction as soon as he heard her cry.
As soon as Fleur dismounted her broom, she ran to meet Liam and hurled herself over him with such force that he winced in pain.
"Liam!
" she exclaimed.
"I thought I wouldn't see you again!
"
Liam growled as he got up and then nuzzled into her tummy. Then he sat down for her to mount him. Without thinking twice, Fleur jumped on Liam and they took off. Her broom rushed behind her owner. All of sudden, Fleur remembered Adrianna and she became panicky for having left the queen alone in her excitement. She asked Liam to turn back, only to see that an angry Adrianna was coming towards them while riding her alpha. Dmitri stopped in front of them and growled angrily.
"I am very sorry!
" said Fleur as Liam wondered what had happened.
He mentally communicated to Liam,
"Ask your girlfriend to be careful with my mate!
"
"She is not my girlfriend anymore, we will marry soon!
"
