Isidorus was confused. "What is it Adrianna?" 

"If Vikra has come to know about me and was able to lie in wait to attack us, then how did he know that we would be taking this route to enter the wizard kingdom? Is this the only route by which you can enter the kingdom?" 

​​

Isidorus was elated by the way she was asking questions. She sounded like Shira and it was satisfying in many ways. He ran his hand through his beard and said, "There is more than one entrance, but this is the entrance we use for our kings and queens because this has been considered the safest. However, it is now compromised, so we will have to look for a different route." 

"If this was the safest, then this also means that not many people know about it?" she asked. 

"No. Only a handful, like Howard and Fleur, even know of its existence. The team accompanying Fleur also doesn't know about this entrance. We have extracted the memory of this entrance from their minds." 

"Extracted the memory?" asked Adrianna. She was wide-eyed. 

"Yes. The military general's office does the memory extraction procedure on teams which have accompanied the king and queen. This is for the safety of the royal family." Isidorus replied to her as though it was a completely normal occurrence. 

Adrianna blew air and a nervous smile appeared on her face. Then, she frowned again. "This means that some insider had to have given him this information. Cy?"

Isidorus nodded. "Cy disappeared after he was defeated by you. There is a very high chance that Cy is now with Vikra." 

Adrianna looked at Dmitri and said, "Dmitri, do you know what this means? You are in grave danger! I will not let you leave this place." 

"No Adrianna. It doesn't work that way. I am the supreme alpha of my kingdom and I have to be there with my people. All the wolf clans that I have united under my rule look up to me. Do you even understand what that means? I am responsible for all of them. If you become the queen, how would you feel about this kingdom?" said Dmitri with seriousness in his eyes. 

"But Dmitri…" 

Dmitri shook his head to warn her not to say another word. He said with determination, "I will leave tomorrow morning." Then, he looked at Liam and Fleur and said, "I will leave Liam with you and take the rest of the werewolves with me." 

Adrianna shook her head, "No! Liam is extremely important for you. You have to take him with you. I am well protected over here."

However, Dmitri had made up his mind. Adrianna could sense it even though he didn't communicate it. It made sense for Liam to be left near Adrianna as Dmitri knew that he also had a craving for Fleur. If Fleur was to be on the queen's special protection team, then Liam would be the most ideal choice – he would be able to stay with Fleur and also protect his queen with his life. 

Adrianna wasn't satisfied. She turned to Isidorus and said, "In that case, you will have some wizards and witches deployed around the blue moon pack territory. Even if the werewolves can ward off the neotides, they won't be able to protect Dmitri from Vikra or Cy."

Isidorus agreed. "Yes, of course. That goes without saying. The king and the queen's protection is our responsibility." He paused and then continued, "Dmitri, be careful because now Vikra knows Adrianna's soft spot. There is no spell in this world that Vikra can't break. Whenever you feel that Vikra may be nearby, let me know immediately and I will send more forces." 

Dmitri nodded. 

Having settled the situation, Isidorus also took a step back and disappeared. 

"Liam, you will guard Adrianna twenty-four seven, even when she joins the wizard academy," commanded Dmitri. 

"Yes!" Liam accepted his king's orders without a complaint.

Dmitri became quiet after that, which was the signal for Liam and Fleur to leave. 

 Then, he turned to Adrianna and picked her up into his arms. "Come, let's finish what we started in the morning." He kissed her lips and carried her to the bedroom where he placed her on the mattress. As soon as he had removed both of their clothes, he pressed her down onto the bed and the flower canopy quickly surrounded them. 

After an hour of making love, they lay side by side. Dmitri started playing with her hair. He would lift the silky strands with his hand, but they would slip away, just like his wife. 

"Don't think nonsense Dmitri!" Adrianna chided him. He laughed and kissed her shoulder. 

"Do you want to know what happened in the council meeting today?" asked Adrianna. 

Dmitri was curious. "Yes, tell me."

Adrianna told him everything about the council meeting, including Lia. 

"Be careful in the academy Adri… Make sure to steer clear of Lia and her children. They may try to harm you in some way," warned Dmitri. "If I hear that they have harmed even a single strand of hair on your head, I will hunt them down!"
