Chapter 328 - A Visitor From The Future

Dmitri went out of the room and the servants started preparing Adrianna. They removed her clothes and her jewelry and made her wear a white bustier and white panties over which she wore a thin white muslin gown. A tiara of white blossoms was placed on her head. She looked lovely. Her white skin glowed beneath that muslin dress. The servants escorted her to the outside where Dmitri was waiting for her. He stared at his wife, held her hand softly and kissed her lightly on her lips. "You look lovely, my dear." 

Adrianna looked at him with her golden yellow eyes and rewarded him with a soft pink blush. 

"Let's go, my Queen," said a servant from behind. 

Dmitri held Adrianna and together they walked out towards the vast gardens of the Royal Palace. That evening the gardens were open to all. Anyone could come and shower blessings on their queen. Mihr was standing there along with Fleur along with their team of security team. Even though the entire palace was cast with a protection spell, they didn't want to take chances with the public. When Adrianna reached there, she found that some people had already gathered there to see her. This was the only time when the queen would appear in front of all inhabitants of the Wizard Kingdom. 

All of them bowed to her as she walked to her chair. Adrianna was made to sit on a slightly raised platform on a cushioned chair. There was a canopy of flowers above her. When Adrianna sat down, Dmitri stood beside her. Mihr and Fleur stood beside Dmitri. 

Wizards and witches who had come from across the two lower levels started forming a line in order to present their gift to the queen. All of them came with unique gift items. Adrianna was surprised at all the beautiful flowers, rare gems and rare feathers that were presented to her. They all knew that Adrianna was also half werewolf and the queen of the werewolf realm, hence they also came with gifts that only she and Dmitri could appreciate. Most of them were beaded jewelry, which married people wore in the werewolf realm. 

In the line, which extended several hundred feet, Adrianna saw a little boy waiting patiently for his turn and with the way the line was moving, she thought that he wouldn't reach her for the next hour. Feeling pity for the little boy, Adrianna signaled him to come to her. The child looked at her and walked towards her. No one in the crowd or the security team stopped him. As he walked towards her, she could feel a growing affection for him. Her smile broadened. 

The little boy was no more than ten or eleven years. He had rosy pink lips, beautiful black eyes and slightly long hair till his shoulders. Wearing a thick brown dress beneath his fur golden yellow fur coat, he looked so cute that Adrianna wanted to hold him and make him sit in her lap. When he was only a few feet away from her, suddenly his eye color turned golden yellow. Adrianna was stunned and stared at him as her skin lined with goose bumps. With those eyes, he looked like a little god. He came very near to her and extended his hand. Adrianna held his hand and asked, "What is your name?" 

He gazed at her and said, "My eyes are just like yours."

Adrianna nodded. "Who are you?" she asked again. 

He looked around her as she followed his gaze. Everything around them became standstill. Not a soul moved, not a leaf fluttered in the wind and not a beam of light deviated. Adrianna was flabbergasted. Why was she feeling so attracted to him? Who was this child who had the power to stop everything around him? What was the connection? Why did he have the same eye color as hers? As those questions gnawed her mind, she tried to delve into his mind but was stopped by some force. 

"Are you trying to enter my mind?" he asked as he brought his hands on her cheeks. 

Adrianna gaped. How did he know?

"I am here from the future Adrianna. I am here from your future. My name is Ileus," the child disclosed his identity. 

Adrianna brought her hand on his soft cheeks. "Ileus… did you do all this?" she asked tenderly, still widely surprised. 

He nodded. 

Adrianna snapped her fingers to let everything come back to its normal function, but nothing moved. She looked at Dmitri, whose eyes were fixed ahead at the line. His arms were crossed across his chest and he looked handsome like a statue. Ileus left Adrianna's hand, ran to him, hugged his thigh and looked up. His height was a little above his legs. He chuckled as he kept pulling his clothes. 

Adrianna snapped her fingers once again to bring things back to normalcy, but nothing happened. Ileus left Dmitri and went back to Adrianna. "You cannot bring back things to normalcy, if I have interfered." He spoke as his eyes became black. 

"Who are you and what do you want?" Adrianna was now getting afraid. "How did your eye color change?" 

Ileus looked at her and tilted his head. His eye color changed to golden yellow again, making Adrianna jump in her seat. "Don't be scared," he said with a smile. "I have come here to meet you. I have come here to warn you from your future. Be careful of yourself and live. Don't fall easily in the hands of the enemy. Fight them and save yourself." 

"What enemy?" Adrianna was feeling as if he was hiding something. 

He smiled again. "I came here to see you in case I die, in case he dies," he said looking at Dmitri. 

"Why is Dmitri so important to you?" Adrianna had a thousand questions in her mind. 

Ileus started laughing. He stared at Adrianna and started walking backwards. "Take care of yourself and concentrate on your inner self. Your future lies in how you deal with it patiently." 

After saying that Ileus snapped his fingers and everything became normal again. Adrianna saw him disappearing into golden sand particles that vanished into thin air. "Stop!" she shouted. 

Dmitri looked at her and asked, "Adri…?"
