Chapter 116 - You Want to Stay Here Forever?

When Cy and his team reached the Blue Moon Pack territory, he asked all of them to stay on the outskirts while he disguised as one of them and went in. He needed to enter the palace to get near his target. The palace was heavily guarded, but for Cy, getting inside wasn't an issue. The issue was how to identify who Adrianna was. 

In the back of his mind, he knew that Isidorus was keeping track of his movements, but Isidorus couldn't say anything about what he was doing. Since Cy had been tasked with the task of finding Adrianna and getting her back, whatever he was doing right now was very much according to Isidorus' plan. Cy saw how the servants were dressed and swished his hand to dress in the same way. Disguised, Cy went inside the palace. He followed a servant to the kitchen where he found that many of them were talking while only a few were cooking. They were cracking jokes about some girl called Keisha. 

"Oliver, what are you doing here?" asked one of the servants who saw Cy standing in a corner and looking around. "I asked you to go and clean the leaves of the plants in the main hall!" 

Cy didn't know that he was being addressed, so he didn't turn around to acknowledge the voice. Seeing this, the servant raised his voice and repeated the question. Everybody stared at Cy as he stared back at them. 

The servant was now agitated. He got up from his seat and walked over to Cy. He poked his finger at Cy and said, "Oliver, are you mocking me?" 

Cy immediately realized that he was being addressed as Oliver, the servant he had disguised himself as. Without creating a fuss, Cy lowered his head and rushed outside. By the time he was in the main hall, he was under the disguise of the servant who had poked him. Upon reaching the main hall, he went to Oliver who was actually cleaning plants. He asked, "Oliver, where is the alpha and his queen?" 

Oliver looked at the head butler, shocked at the question. "James, are you accusing me of being involved?"

Cy looked at the frightened servant and said, "Involved in what?" 

Oliver was all the more frightened. He was now shaking. "Involved in their dis- disappearance…" 

Before Oliver could comprehend, a spell was casted upon him and Cy came to know about every detail within five minutes. 

"I saw Liam is leading the team to find the alpha and his queen," said Oliver. 

"Is anyone else with them?" asked Cy. He had seen a leaf grow on the tree seal that he had in his hand and he had his suspicions.

Oliver was all the more baffled as to why was the head butler was even asking these questions, but he was already under the truth spell. Even though he was conflicted inside, he had to speak the truth. "I heard that the queen's cousin, Fleur, is with him," he replied. 

"Fleur!" Cy sniggered. "So that is Isidorus' plan? That sneaky old wizard!" Casting the stupefy spell on Oliver, Cy sneaked out of the palace. He had to find Liam and Fleur.

Dmitri pulled her up towards him and, together, they came out of the lake. They swam for some time before getting lost in throngs of pleasure in the lake. N.a.k.e.d, they were laying side by side on the grass when Dmitri turned his face to her and said, "I want to take you to a special place. Get ready."

"Where Dmitri? I don't want to go. This is beautiful and I don't ever want to leave this place," she whined. Her wolf couldn't agree more. She just wanted to be Dmitri and spend the rest of her life here. 

Dmitri smiled and turned towards her. "You want to stay here forever?" he asked, playing with her b.r.e.a.s.ts which were glistening in the sunlight because the water on them hadn't dried. 

"Mhmm hmmm…" 

He leaned over and kissed her on her lips. "You will love that place Adri… Get ready, we are going to go…"

She was reluctant, so she turned to the other side. Standing up, Dmitri picked up his bride and they went inside the cave. After an hour, they had shape shifted and were running to a different destination.

They entered deeper inside the forest where the vast canopy of leaves didn't allow the sunlight to penetrate. They could hear the sounds of insects, birds, and animals. The leaves brushed up against them as they ran further. The air tasted sweet and fresh. They were moving against the dense vegetation when Adrianna realized that she knew the path. Just before reaching her favorite spot, she shape shifted back into a human and laughed loudly. Dmitri came over and stood right next to her, snuggling into her hand as she brushed his fur. 

They looked at the vast expanse of the lake that was right in the center of the jungle which no one could ever find. The water was blue and it shimmered as the sunlight hit its surface. Against the noise of the birds who welcomed Adrianna, they could only hear the gentle murmur of water. For all its serenity, was there any danger lurking in the depths of the trees behind? 

"How did you know about this lake? This is my favorite spot in the world when I need to calm my nerves," she mentally communicated with him.
