Adrianna could feel Dmitri's excruciating pain in her heart. She could see that Dmitri was in so much pain that his complexion had become ashen. His natural healthy and shiny skin had sunken into something so lifeless that it scared her. Adrianna cried as she stretched her hand forward to reach out to him. She saw that he had closed his eyes and had sucked himself into a mental space where he could cope up, somewhere deep within so that he could shut himself out from the world. 

"Stop!" she cried. "Don't do that to him!" She screamed, as she lay tied on the ground. Her gaze was fixed on his face so that whenever he opened his eyes, the first thing he would see was her. Because they were bonded, she was also visiting his dark place and she felt more pain than she knew any werewolf ever could endure. It was breaking her willpower and hurting her immensely. 

​​

"Please let him go," she urged Cy with tears rolling down her cheeks. 

Then she looked at Dmitri and shouted, "Dmitri, I am here!" But she knew that he couldn't hear her.

With so much pain in her heart, Adrianna's energy had completely depleted. She found herself helpless. 

Finally, she gave up and said, "Leave him alone. You can take me."

Cy smiled. "Well, since you're willingly handing yourself over, I will gladly leave him alone. With your powers, I can rule the world."

His original plan was to kill Adrianna but after seeing that magic was so natural to her, he had changed his plan. With her by his side, he could conquer the world and rule over all the species. 

She nodded as tears stained her cheeks.

He released Dmitri from the spell and Dmitri collapsed onto the ground. Somehow, Adrianna gathered whatever strength she still had left, crawled to him, and held his hand. 

"Sorry," she whispered to him. "I am a terrible wife. Even though you came to protect me, I put you in this situation. Please wake up Dmitri. I won't be able to live without you…

Even if she was held captive, she knew that she would be able to sustain life knowing he was there. "Wake up... I will be able to live as long as I know that you are alive."

Feeling weak, Adrianna collapsed on the ground next to him while being tied up in all the lightning that the wizards had thrown around her. The rain hadn't stopped and all she wanted was to curl up with her alpha. All of a sudden, she felt her body being pulled by something. Her weak body was being dragged along the ground by one of the wizards and she was being separated from her alpha. 

She became more and more restless as she watched him get further and further away. Her emotions became jagged and her insides tightened. 

She cried and shouted to Dmitri, "Dmitri, I love you. Be strong and don't come after me. If you are listening to me, you will never ever come after me. Don't ever connect with me." Even though she had said those words, she still waited for him to open his eyes. She remembered the last days she had spent with him - all the thrill they had, his touch, and his unfathomable love. She whispered, "Dmitri, I will come back. When I do, I will sit with you and forever hold your hand." Her emotional pain seeped into her soul and the parting hurt even more. 

The rains were pouring down so harshly that she could see his unconscious body being washed by the torrential rain. As she watched him get dragged away by the rain, she suddenly remembered that she could communicate with animals. Her hopes raised a bit and she mentally called for help. She found that there were a few onlookers who had hid behind the trees watching them silently. The communication spread like wildfire amongst the beasts and within a few minutes, she heard loud roars, growls and howls getting closer. Cy and his men looked around surprised, but they didn't have much time to comprehend what was happening when the source of the noises stopped right in front of them. They could all see that a large number of wild bears, foxes, and other animals, had surrounded them from all sides. 

Adrianna smiled before her smile turned into laughter. She looked at Cy menacingly and shouted, "Attack!" 

Cy could feel goose bumps line his skin. The wilderness started attacking him and his men. 

Within the next few minutes, the entire landscape was converted into a strange battlefield with Cy and his men fighting wild animals. There were many spells being throwing around, but the animals were akin to a hydra; whenever one died, ten more would attack with greater force out of revenge for their fallen comrade. 

Adrianna seeked out the bear she had met in the woods and said, "Thank you for helping me." 

The bear was attacking a wizard, but he replied, "Adrianna, we are all doing this because these men had tried to destroy our peace. So don't worry; I was simply waiting for your signal." 

Adrianna was feeling confident. She closed her eyes and broke out of the ropes that were constraining her by exerting a lot of force.
