Adrianna stopped eating. Her heart started beating fast. She said, "Uncle, I don't think Father would want me to go…" She remembered that he wanted her to meet the supreme alpha.
"No, you can go Adrianna," said Kuro.
Kuro thought that it would be better if Adrianna was married to Rudolph. He would rather present his beautiful daughter, Kayla, to the supreme alpha. He was certain that the supreme alpha would never be able to deny her.
Adrianna shuddered. She looked for help, but the only people around her were people who would rather throw her in danger.
"Uncle, I have a lot of assignments to do. My internal assessments are due in fifteen days and I have to study a lot. It won't be possible…"
Kuro shot her a glance and said, "Adrianna, don't you give me your college shit here. Are you trying to belittle the rest of us by saying that you attend college and are far more educated than us?"
Adrianna was surprised at her father's outburst. She wasn't implying any such thing. Also, why was her father so insistent on sending her there?
"No Father…" she replied.
"Then go for dinner at Uncle Claus's house," he ordered. "It's not as if he will invite you every day."
She flinched. "Okay…"
She was mentally cursing her grandfather for putting her in this situation.
Claus looked at Kuro and smiled. He looked at Reinjie and said, "Reinjie, you should also come with your mate."
Reinjie smiled and answered, "Sure, thanks. We will be there."
Adrianna really had no escape. She had to go for dinner at Uncle Claus's house and meet his son. She remembered that when he had asked her to be his mate, she had run away. She was prepared to run away again if he asked her the same question. She hated the people in front of her for putting her in such a situation. Adrianna looked at Kayla who was eating peacefully. She had no tension in life…
After lunch, Claus left, reminding Adrianna and Reinjie to come for dinner on time.
Adrianna went to her room and shut her door so that no one could enter. She had carried her books and notebooks to her room, and spent the entire evening studying. The nanny came to serve her snacks for the evening and was impressed to see her surrounded by so many books. She told Adrianna that she was very proud of her, as she was the only person in the whole red moon pack who was interested in studying. The rest of them were either into making alliances or fighting amongst each other.
Adrianna smiled at the nanny's simple admission of her thoughts. Her mood lifted.
She didn't realize that the clock had struck 8PM until Reinjie knocked on her door and said, "Are you ready Adrianna? We have to be there soon."
Adrianna looked at her clock and jumped out of bed. "Give me five minutes Reinjie," she said, quickly taking out a dress to wear. Without bothering much, she tied her hair up in a messy bun. She wanted to look as unattractive as possible. However, when she came out in her deep green dress, she looked so beautiful that even Reinjie was stunned at her beauty.
Not wanting to show his emotions, he turned his head and walked outside. He still had to collect his mate, Meina, before going to Claus's house.
Meina was the daughter of the beta of the Lake Moon pack. Reinjie had found her lying in a pool of blood when they had attacked the Lake Moon pack a few years back. Ever since he had seen her, he had never let her out of his sight. She was his mate for life and they were planning to marry soon. She was very average in looks. However, when Adrianna met her, she was impressed by her gentle manners and soft demeanor which were so unlike Reinjie.
After picking up Meina, Reinjie turned his car towards Claus's house where they found that all of them were excitedly waiting for their guests.
Adrianna was the last one to enter the house, only to find Rudolph eagerly looking for her. He approached her and said softly in her ears, "Hi Adrianna, you look so beautiful."
Adrianna shrank backwards and said a polite thank you. She went and sat with Meina while Reinjie sat near Uncle Claus.
Rudolph was very excited. He was only looking at Adrianna who was looking everywhere but at him. She wanted to get dinner over with, and get out of there. She remembered Dmitri. Her day had started on a beautiful note, and she wanted to end it like that.
Wine was served which she refused. Dinner followed. Once dinner was over, Uncle Claus suggested that Rudolph and Adrianna take a walk outside.
Adrianna's wolf growled at Rudolph in dismay. It sensed danger.
