Chapter 110 - They Had Gone Missing

Ed opened the door wide open and asked them to come in. "Why are you dressed like this?" asked Ed. 

Fleur looked at Liam who was gazing at her with interest. More than her, he was only looking at her dress and the all the contours. She felt like casting a stupefy spell on him, but she restrained herself. 

"How do you know Adrianna?" asked Liam with curiosity. The girl in front of her hardly looked like she would be Adrianna's friend; she looked no more than sixteen. "Are you from Blue Moon Pack?" he questioned her again after a pause. 

"That's it!" thought Fleur. She pointed her finger at him and said, "Anobakwvaw". Immediately, Liam was flummoxed. He couldn't remember why he was standing there, and just turned to go to his destination. All he remembered was that he had to go to the architect. 

Ed looked at Fleur angrily, but she just shrugged and said, "Ah! Don't worry Uncle Ed, he will be fine in an hour." She stepped into the house. 

"Where is Adrianna?" she repeated her question while sitting down on a nearby chair. 

"Why are you asking about her? And how come you came here instead of your father?" Ed asked. He was suspicious of the fact that Fleur had never left the wizard kingdom before but was making a sudden appearance in the werewolves' territory. 

She flashed her palm in front of Ed and enthusiastically said, "The Great Wizard has asked me to protect the queen." 

Ed smiled. His Adrianna would be safe now. He said, "She must be in her palace, Fleur."

"Let's go there!" said Fleur and jumped up from her place. 

"You better change your dress," he said.

"What do humans generally wear? A friend had brought back a book from the human realm and this is what the girl was wearing, so I had assumed that human girls wear this," said Fleur, not able to understand what to change into. 

Ed threw a fashion magazine in front of her. She flipped through the pages with so much interest that she forgot what she had come there for. Ed coughed in the background. Fleur turned to look at him and then once again swished her hand from head to waist. She changed into a bright one sleeved yellow dress with a golden belt around the waist just as it was shown in the magazine. Those clothes in the magazine were so much better than what they wore in the wizard kingdom. 

Ed sighed and shook his head. 

They went to the palace to meet the supreme alpha and his luna. 

When they reached the palace, the servants received them very nicely. They were taken to the main hall and served exquisite dishes. They must have waited for more than fifteen minutes, when Cora came. She looked furious. She looked at the girl who was accompanying Ed and asked, "Who is she? And how come she has entered the palace premises without my permission?" 

Fleur was peeved and blurted, "I am Fleur and have come here to protect-"

Ed interrupted her statement and said, "She is Adrianna's cousin and is here to meet her to congratulate her on the wedding." 

Cora looked at her from top to bottom. She snickered, and remarked, "Another of the tainted ones!" 

Fleur's patience was on the verge of exploding. "What?" she scowled. 

Ed interrupted again, "Fleur, this is Dmitri's mother, Cora." 

Cora glowered at Fleur and called the servants. "Go tell your master and mistress that her cousin is here to see her." 

Fleur waited patiently to meet her queen. She was excited all over again. It would be her first time meeting her queen and she had already prepared a speech for when she meets her queen for the first time. 

The servant came down and informed, "The master and his mistress are not in the room!" 

"Where have they gone?" she asked the servant. But how would he know? He shook his head and started shaking from fear. 

Cora mentally communicated with Nate and Liam, but none of them knew where he was. After half an hour of frantically searching around, it was established that no one knew where they had gone. 

They had gone missing!

---

Dmitri had taken Adrianna out of the palace. They had shape shifted and ran into the deep forest together - to a place where no one could find them. He had already communicated to Nate about it and had asked him to stay quiet. His beta had to know of his whereabouts. 

They continued running until Adrianna could see a huge waterfall. From a distance, it looked like a silent cascading white stream over the rocky outcrops. But as they drew closer, Adrianna shape shifted back into her human form while Dmitri stayed in his wolf form by her side. The noise of the falling water increased steadily until they were only a few hundred meters away from it. The deafening roar of the water made it impossible for them to hear anything else. 

They went closer until they could feel the water vapor from the waterfall on their skin. Within a few minutes, both of them were as wet as though they had been in a rainstorm. Dmitri shook water from his fur, drenching Adrianna further. She laughed and pushed him in the water. Dmitri did not come out after a few minutes and Adrianna became scared. 

She was about to dive inside the water when she saw her handsome alpha, drenched to the skin, emerging out of the water. His hair clung around his face. Mesmerized by his charm, she stood frozen on the spot. Her wolf went out of control and her attraction to him intensified. Her fingers itched to touch him - to feel his skin next to hers. And her alpha knew it. He walked across the rocky floor to reach her and as soon as he reached her, he grabbed her waist and picked her up to his face. 

Slowly, he walked towards the waterfall and entered it with Adrianna in his grasp. They had entered a cave that was hidden behind the waterfall. It was one of his hidden safe havens. 

He kissed Adrianna passionately on her lips. She looked crazily seductive in the wet clothes that were now clinging to her curvaceous body. He slid her down, placed her on the soft grass, and slowly started peeling her clothes.
