BXBX NOVEL Chapter 370 - Captured
Dmitri couldn\'t understand as to how come the battle got over so fast. What happened that stopped the battle so suddenly? He ran around the area to look for Adrianna but she was nowhere. An unknown fear gripped him. He ran towards the wall of the Wizard Kingdom and saw that the wall was being recreated from the inside and there were a few wizards outside who were helping to rebuild it from the outside. He asked them if they had seen Adrianna, but none of them had. His worry intensified and he asked one of them to create a portal for him to go inside the kingdom.
When he went inside, he met Isidorus, Mihr and Ziu and asked them about Adrianna\'s whereabouts. It was already dawn and the sun was slowly coming up. The moon had retreated down the horizon. The sky was light orange and grey as it was still breaking the darkness. "Did she come here?" he asked.
Isidorus stared at Dmitri, as fear gripped his heart. He shook his head. Leaving Mihr and Ziu with the rest of the wizards, Isidorus took Dmitri to the Royal Palace and asked, "Where the hell did you leave Adrianna?"
Dmitri was nervous. He narrated the entire incident and somehow they both had the same thing in their mind. To dispel their doubts, Isidorus called some Mozias and sent them on a secret mission to find the queen. Once again he found himself in the same situation he was twenty years back when Shira had disappeared. He couldn\'t think straight at that time and had become very depressed. However, it was different this time. A melancholy loomed over his soul. He was scared about the child and thought that if he didn\'t find the queen, he would go mad.
For Dmitri, it was torture. He couldn\'t communicate with Adrianna in any way.
The Mozias went to the jungle outside the Wizard Kingdom to find Adrianna but there was nothing. They found numerous neotides that had been slaughtered by her, but not a single one was the golden furred werewolf. They searched for her in every cave and holes dug in the ground, but she wasn\'t anywhere. Finally they returned with sad news.
Dmitri couldn\'t bear to hear the news. He said, "Is it possible that she went to the Werewolf Realm?"
"If she had gone to the Werewolf Realm, how does it explain that Vikra had retreated when he was this close to breaking the wall?" replied Isidorus. He was certain that she had been captured because Vikra was looking for Adrianna and that was the only thing that would have stopped him. He had gathered a large force to capture Adrianna. With the bounty in hand, he would have retreated quietly. Isidorus cursed himself for not thinking this to be the reason for his retreat otherwise he would have come out of the Kingdom along with a force and saved Adrianna.
It all happened so quickly that they couldn\'t even imagine that this would take place. Vikra somehow came to know about Adrianna\'s curse and he took advantage of it.
Dmitri felt as if he would collapse. He could see Adrianna fighting against those neotides. The entire scene of yesterday\'s night was vivid in his eyes. Bad thoughts were lingering in his mind. It was a terrible feeling to lose something that you held so dearly. It was like a limb torn from his body, like his heart exploding without a chance to save it. He went inside the room and looked at the bed. The bed where she was sleeping in his arms yesterday was looking lonely and disinviting. He was alone. So this is how his mother felt when his father went missing. Were the mother and son sharing the same fate?
He knelt on the cold floor and shouted, "Adri! I couldn\'t save you. Where are you?" He started crying loudly as if his brain was being shredded into thousands of pieces. His emotional pain flowed from his eyes. His cry was so heart wrenching that the eyes of those who were standing outside and waiting for him, also became wet. Dmitri was shaking violently and he grabbed onto the bed in front of him. In his life, he never expected to leave Adrianna in danger. He regretted his decision of marrying her. If she had married Niiya, perhaps she would have been happier. She would have stayed in the Human Realm where Vikra would have never entered.
The whole world vanished for him and only pain remained. The pain was so deep that it was breaking him internally. Was his mate alive? This thought was gnawing his soul. She was the beloved Adrianna for whom he had connived to marry. He had taken the risk of kidnapping Niiya only to marry her. He had marked her. HE remembered the day he had marked her and felt even more miserable. "Adri, wherever you are, give me a sign."
Meanwhile on the outside, Isidorus had gone mad with rage. He left the Royal Palace and went to his palace where he called Mihr and the Mozias. Ziu couldn\'t come because he was still rebuilding the wall.
Isidorus had to prepare a plan. "Adrianna is missing and in all probability she has been captured by Vikra."
Mihr was wide eyed with shock. "How can this be? She is the most powerful wizard of the world!" asked Mihr. This was an impossible thing.
"We have full information that she had been captured. I don\'t know what transpired between them and how she went there, but we have to now attack Vikra\'a land to get Adrianna back safely," said Isidorus hiding all the details from those in front of him.
Even the Mozias were shocked. They had seen Adrianna fighting in the battlefield out. It was impressive! How could she be captured?
"I don\'t want to discuss anything!" roared Isidorus. "Go and inform the Werewolf Realm about her disappearance. We are going to declare war on them today!"
