Chapter 60 - Trapped Again?
While Kuro was taken aback, Adrianna wondered as to what council her grandfather was talking about. Both of her brothers were shocked. Kuro had apprised them of the situation after he had a talk with Adrianna previously. They all looked at Adrianna. The situation was muckier than they had thought. So it was either Dmitri or Niiya. Adrianna shrugged and said, "What are you all talking about?"
All of them only had just one thought in their mind: – if Adrianna didn't marry Dmitri, he would destroy the pack. However, if she didn't accept Niiya, would their pack also be destroyed? How could she attract both of their attentions? Kuro didn't know whether to be happy or laugh at his fate.
"Adrianna needs to stay here until this matter is resolved," said Ed, breaking the silence.
"Grandfather, no, I won't stay here!" she lashed at him. She had enough of her family members.

"Adrianna, just stay here for the next two days. Until then, I will try to find out where Niiya is," he tried to explain to her.
"But why do you have to find Niiya? You don't even know him. It is me who has to find him," she said with concern. She didn't want her grandfather to get embroiled in this situation. He was someone who didn't even know what was going on between Niiya and her. So why should he be so concerned? Why was he treating her like a child?
"Adri, just listen to what I am saying for now!" H applied pressure to his words.
"No, I will not!" She got up and started walking out. Reinjie and Sam blocked her instantly.
"Get out of my way! I am warning you," she snarled at them. But they didn't budge. She walked past them, but they again stood in her path. Without hesitation, she hit them so badly that they were on the floor in a minute. She became very angry and rushed out. But as soon as she was out, she saw that many other men from the wolf pack had surrounded the house. There were so many that Adrianna was surprised. What was happening?
Kuro came out after her. He said, "Adrianna, tomorrow the supreme alpha is coming. You better stay here. All of these people are going to stay here and surround the house until tomorrow's meeting is over. You are not allowed to exit the boundaries of this house."
"Kuro!" she shouted.
As soon as she raised her voice, she heard some of the werewolves around her snarling at her.
"Call me 'Ffather,'" said Kuro slowly as he glared at her. "Do you want to fight so many just to run away from here?"
She heard them snarling again. Kuro had conveyed to his pack instructions to guard Adrianna in a way that she would be unable to leave the premises.
Ed, along with Reinjie and Sam, had also come out by then.
She hated her grandfather for putting her in this hazardous situation. She looked at all of them. It was as though the whole world had turned against her. But would she take their lives for her own good?
She was strong enough to destroy all of them and make her way out of that maze. She was simply too powerful for them. But was it wise?
Couldn't her father and her siblings love her enough? All she wanted was love from them. Love which could fix her soul, her brain, and cure her despair. She wished she had mastered the art of love, but it was hard when she was starved of it.
She had a strong urge to fight them and run away, but she felt pain upon even thinking of killing her own people. She sat on the ground wondering if she had simply been born with an incomplete soul. She chose to be human and in pain rather than a zombie who had to bite others to feed.
She howled loudly with so much pain that those around her could feel the pain inside her. Ed watched. Kuro watched. Ed moved closer to her and held her shoulders. Crying, she got up from her place. Lonely and desperate, she breathed in real slow. What were the consequences? Her shield had shattered and the pain had tumbled out.
'I have to sacrifice myself and my ambitions in order to keep them safe from my anger.'
Kuro watched her, thinking that Adrianna had gone inside the house with Ed.
Once inside, she went straight to her bedroom, wondering what would happen now. Ed assured her, "I am going to find Niiya. But, don't let anyone know about it." Saying that, he left.
