Novel Full Chapter 390 - I Don’t Trust Him
Each and every little thing that existed over there froze. It was as if the entire Wizard Kingdom was nothing but a small toy that existed in a glass ball.
Adrianna and Dmitri were having a soundless sleep when suddenly someone in her dreams said, "Mother, you are needed at the event."
Adrianna woke up with a startle. 'Mother?' Her eyes became wide with shock. Did her child come in her dreams? What event was she needed at? "Oh!" she shouted and woke Dmitri.
"What is it Adri?" said Dmitri as he looked irritatedly at her.
"We need to be at the event now!"
"Why?"
But Adrianna wasn't under the mood of explaining him anything. Instead she snapped her fingers multiple times and dragged sleep Dmitri out of the bed. The two of them were in the event once again. But something interesting happened. While Adrianna had snapped her fingers and she was there looking at everything that was frozen in front of her, Dmitri too was frozen in that zone as soon as he entered. It was as if only Adrianna was excluded from that kind of magic. She looked at everything with surprise. It was just like when Ileus had come to meet her when she was being crowned. He had come to warn her about taking care of her.
The baby really wanted to be born and he was an extremely powerful child. He was taking extreme precaution for himself.
Adrianna snapped her fingers and everything went back to normalcy. She saw that most of the people were looking in her direction. It was odd, but she got up from her place along with Dmitri and together they waved at them. The entire audience broke into loud applause.
"Who the hell said that it was an illusion?" said someone from the back.
"I think it was Ziu," came the reply.
The two of them looked at Ziu and reprimanded him. "This is no way to behave Ziu. How could you announce to the audience that the King and Queen were not actually present and it was just an illusion? Have you no regard to the royalty?"
Ziu pursed his lips. He said he was sorry but in his mind he knew that it was indeed an illusion, then how come things have changed so suddenly. Like it was something else a few seconds ago. It was perfect for him to grow seeds of unpleasantness and distrust about Adrianna and Dmitri but how did the table turn so fast? He couldn't understand and left the place in a huff.
Adrianna narrowed her eyes when she heard that Ziu was trying to tarnish the image. At that time, she exited the place quietly with Dmitri but she had to investigate this thing.
Niiya was standing at the exit. He said, "I think I will go back now. It was really nice to meet you."
"No Niiya," came a voice from behind before Adrianna could say anything. It was Isidorus. "You have to stay back for the dinner that I am hosting tonight in honor of the Royal Couple."
Dmitri was again irritated by Isidorus. This old man needed to be taught a lesson. "You cannot pressurize a guest if he wants to leave," said Dmitri.
Adrianna didn't know what to do with her husband when it came to Niiya. Why was he so jealous? It was now becoming very childish. She communicated mentally to him, "What is wrong with you? Niiya is a special guest!"
"Special? What do you mean?" he retorted.
"I mean what I say. He is the representative of the Human Realm. It is a courtesy call for me to invite him to dinner at the Royal Palace however Isidorus is doing that for me. So don't you think it is better that we let Isidorus do all the curtsey?"
Dmitri fumed inside. "I don't like him!"
"I don't care," came the prompt reply.
"I want to go!"
"You have to wait."
Dmitri started looking around in fury. His gaze fell on a few witches who were giggling as they saw him looking in his direction. "Ah! Such beautiful ones."
Adrianna looked in his direction.
"Yes, I would like take a leave Isidorus," said Niiya.
"Not at all! Today you are my guest. So no going away unless you have dinner with me," insisted Isidorus.
Niiya smiled and looked Adrianna. She also smiled back and said, "Yes, you must join us."
Dmitri walked away to those witches, but soon stopped in his tracks because he found himself rooted to the ground. He looked at Adrianna. But she couldn't perform magic on him, then who was it?
Isidorus looked at Dmitri and gave a brilliant smile.
"This old man!" shouted Dmitri in his head and Adrianna chuckled out aloud.
Niiya left with Isidorus. Ziu followed the two of them. He really had to talk to Niiya.
"So Niiya, what do you actually do in the Human realm?" asked Ziu as they walked back to their carriages.
"Do you mean what is my business? Like how I survive there?" asked Niiya as he laughed at the question.
Ziu laughed with him and said, "Yes, yes. What do you do to survive?"
"I have my own business over there," replied Niiya.
"Oh! I see."
Adrianna and Dmitri walked back to their carriage. When they sat inside, Dmitri wasn't talking to her and sat opposite.
"Dmitri stop acting like a child!" chided Adrianna.
"I hate the way he looks at you!"
"Don't you trust me?"
"I don't trust him!"
Adrianna clenched her jaw. There was no way she was going to win this argument. Why was it that Dmitri felt so insecure when it came to Niiya?
"When I see him, I feel that he is trying to offer you some or the other kind of protection or help. Adrianna, I am very well capable of giving you all that. So when Niiya offers you any of that, I feel so small and incapable. Also I hate the way he looks at you. Why hasn't he found a girl as yet? He should have moved on. It has almost been a year now. When the hell would he give up on you?"
