Chapter 224 - Where is Rest of the Women?

When Adrianna stepped out, she saw Isidorus looking at her from far. She looked back at him with confidence and sipped her wine. Isidorus looked away and started talking to people around.

Dmitri was standing flanked by a few of the female audience. Adrianna walked over to him and coughed, "It seems you have already got some nice company."

"Yes, these are lovely women here. Let me introduce them to you," said Dmitri as he smiled at all of them. His lopsided smile was enough to flutter the hearts of those women. Instead of shaking hands with Adrianna as he introduced them to her one by one, they kept staring at him. One of them even shook hands with Dmitri when he said, "This is Candice."

Adrianna gritted her teeth and circled her arms around his hand to show them all whose possession he was. "I feel so good when you are jealous Adri…" he mentally communicated with a grin on his face.

"Should I show you how I feel and what I am capable of when I am jealous?"

Dmitri sucked in air, "Ah! My fiery wife. What is it that you can do darling? Show me."

Adrianna pulled Dmitri down with the collar and kissed him passionately on his lips smudging her lipstick on his lips. The display of affection was just too much to bear for the women.

Dmitri thoroughly enjoyed his wife's attention. "Thank you my darling," he said as he looked at her affectionately.

The audience couldn't bear the dog food and they left the couple sheepishly one by one. "See you soon Dmitri," they said and left giving glares to Adrianna who raised her glass to bid them bye bye.

Dmitri looked around as though he was finding something.

"What are you looking for?" she asked.

He walked forward a little with one hand in his pocket and the other one being held by Adrianna. "Where is rest of the women?"

Adrianna clenched her jaw. "You insolent man!"

Dmitri had a hearty laughter.

Watching from just a few meters away, Ziu hated Dmitro already. He looked way beyond handsome in that tuxedo. He looked refined. Against his perfect smooth fair skin, his black hair were neatly gelled and combed back. Although Ziu was one of the most handsome men on the wizard kingdom, that day he felt he paled in comparison to Dmitri and the only reason was that Adrianna looked fabulous next to him. Ziu wondered that id she was next to him, perhaps they would be the most beautiful couple on the face of the earth. He sipped his wine as he looked at him, jealousy simmering in his system. Oh, what he could do to wipe that smile off Dmitri's face after Adrianna kissed him.

Isidorus came back to them and took them around to meet more people before the dinner was announced. It was very late in the night when the party was over. Throughout that time, Ziu kept away from Adrianna. Dmitri's popularity increased manifold.

They thanked Isidorus and left the venue. When they reached the Royal Palace, both of them were tired. Adrianna wanted to sleep but Dmitri poured another glass of wine for himself. He didn't change and went to the balcony of the bedroom. He sipped his wine as he was looked at the stars. It looked beautiful from there when he saw that the lights in the second realm were still burning. It was like a necklace of light, far away, among the dark hills.

Adrianna had changed and she came from behind to back hug him. "What are you thinking Dmitri?"

He smiled and said, "Nothing, love… looking at those shimmering lights in the second realm." Adrianna went to his side and he circled her shoulders. They stood there in silence, enjoying each other's company.

Then on an afterthought he asked her, "I didn't like what you were talking to with Mihr in the closed chambers. It is not like the woman I am married to. You were talking everything that is not in your nature. It appalled me for a moment but then I wonder if there is a deeper meaning to that…"

"Dmitri, I don't want to discuss it with you, but please do trust me…"

"Are you so power hungry Adrianna?" he wasn't satisfied with her answer.

Adrianna became silent. "Just trust me please," she said. Then she mentally communicated, "It's a part of a plan."

Dmitri nodded and didn't ask her anything after that. Adrianna wasn't taking any chances of talking about it even in her bedroom, so it must be really important.

Soon they retired to bed and the bed was surrounded with thousands of pink, white and red flowers. That night Dmitri couldn't have enough of his wife's love. His appetite for her was increasing with each passing day.
