Chapter 64 - When They Met

The next day Dmitri sent the information to Kuro that he would be arriving within the next two days. But when his people had informed him that Adrianna was already at her father's place, he decided to go earlier. He couldn't wait to be with her. He missed her more every moment they were apart. Although he had said that he would be there by the evening, he couldn't resist getting ready sooner. He had already been ready by 8AM, and had been waiting for his betas, Nate and Liam, who arrived at 10AM, much to his anger. They were both laughing at his impatience, which he ignored. All his men gathered within another hour and they started for Kuro's house.

Dmitri looked at Nate and they mentally communicated about the urgent situation they were in. Liam reassured them that everything was under control.

They reached Kuro's house at 12:30PM. Kuro was extremely surprised. He didn't know what was going on, but he was beginning to become uncomfortable. Why was the supreme alpha so eager to take Adrianna as his mate? He pondered whether he could negotiate a few terms with him before giving Adrianna away.

As usual, Dmitri entered the house with a cold aura emitting from him even though his insides were burning with anxiety. He looked around coldly, but there were no signs of her. 'What were you thinking Dmitri? That she would run into your arms?' He thought that and sulked a little. Kuro and his sons welcomed him into the house as though Dmitri owned it. All the servants stood in a line.

He sat down and there was an awkward silence. He knew that Adrianna was inside;, he could feel her presence, which made him all the more jittery. Would she accept him?

When Kayla announced that the supreme alpha had arrived, Adrianna heaved a sigh. She paced around for help and all she found was her pet that was sleeping on the rug. She rose and put on her sandals. Her movement disturbed the cub and as soon as she opened the door, he ran out in front of her.

"Dmitri, Dmitri!" she shouted and ran after him. But the cub had run into the main living room. Adrianna entered after the cub, shouting his name, but as soon as she entered, she froze. Her eyes dilated, a heated breath escaping from her lips. Blood drained from her face as unattended strands of hair fell in front of her eyes. Rendered speechless by the scene in front of her, she didn't know how to react. Her pet was standing besides her snuggling in her feet. Several moments passed, yet she didn't budge an inch as her eyes locked onto him with shock. She opened her mouth to say something, but she only managed to look like a fish out of water, hopelessly attempting to breathe.

When Dmitri saw her running inside shouting his name, his insides twisted. He wanted to get up right then and hug her. But he refrained himself from getting up, and instead waited for her to see him. His lips curled when he saw her standing a few meters away from him, gazing at him with shock.

"Wh- what are you doing here?" she asked, stuttering a little.

Kuro looked at the two of them, baffled at her expressions and at the smile on Dmitri's face. And why was she shouting 'Dmitri'? He was afraid that Dmitri would become angry, so he said, "This is my daughter Adrianna?"

"Adrianna, this is supreme alpha," said Kuro, pointing at Dmitri. "But how do you know his name?"

Adrianna broke her gaze to look at her father and said, "I was calling my pet… Dmitri…" she paused and then said, "He is the supreme alpha?" Sshe was all the more flabbergasted. The supreme alpha that she had been avoiding at all costs was Dmitri Volkov? Her head became dizzy, as she staggered her way to the nearest chair. Her eyes again set themselves on him. She was surprised beyond words! Her face was stuck in an incredulous expression as she stared at him unblinkingly. She shook her head in disbelief.

Kuro didn't know whom to look at. Dmitri's face broke into a face- splitting grin.

"You named your pet Dmitri?" he asked, his smile not leaving him.

Nate and Liam, on the other hand was enjoying the moment. They were laughing away silently.

Adrianna blushed till her ears were red. She lowered her head, wishing that the earth would break and that she would vanish.

"Do you two know each other?" asked Kuro.

Adrianna couldn't say anything, so Dmitri replied without breaking his gaze from her, "Yes, we go to the same college."
