Chapter 123: The Deamonda Forest

The dinner was finally over, and Leia walked with her best friend outside. A deep breath escaped all their noses, and they glanced at each other.

Leia raised her eyes to stare at Keisha and pinched between her brows. "Okay, Keisha, go home and take a rest. We will all talk tomorrow at Victor's apartment." She smiled at all of them, and they nodded to her in agreement. 

They bade farewell to each other and went their separate ways.

A deep breath escaped Leia's nose as she watched their shadows finally disappear. She fluttered her eyes and turned around to walk into the mansion.

She took the elevator and moved to the second floor, then stepped out when the door opened.

She strolled to their room and stepped in, shutting the door behind her. She turned around and her eyes fell on Adrik, who was standing by the huge glass window, with his hands shoved into his pocket. He was intently watching the full moon in the sky.

Leia walked up to him and hugged him from behind. He smiled and caressed her arms. "Is everything all right?" He turned around to face her and cupped her cheek with his hands.

"Yeah, everything is fine. I'm just tired." She smiled at him, and Adrik placed a soft kiss on her forehead, then pulled her back into a hug.

"Little wife-" She raised her eyes to look at him. " I have somewhere I want to go right now, so I will need you to stay at home and don't come outside." He caressed her hair, and Leia's face turned into a bit of a frown. 

"Where do you want to go at this late hour?" She asked in utter confusion, and Adrik inhaled sharply. "Little wife, I must leave, so please just listen to me." He proceeded to walk past her to the bed, but Leia grabbed him by the wrist, stopping him in his tracks.

"Don't you think I should know where you're going? Adrik, it's midnight! What would you be going out to do by this time of the night? " Her face darkened as she questioned him, and when she got no reaction or answer from him, suspicion arose in her heart. "You have not answered my question, Adrik."

"Little wife, just-"

"I will not listen to you, Adrik. It's so not okay that you're leaving me at this time of night and not bothering to tell me where you're going. I mean, imagine me in your shoes. Won't you be questioning me and worried just like I am right now? " She spread her arms at him, her eyes dilated a bit.

Adrik pinched between his brows and shook his head at her. He stepped back to stand in front of her and cupped her cheek with his hands. "Alright little wife, I will tell you where I'm going." He chuckled and leaned down, placing a soft kiss on her lips. "It's a full moon today, so I have to go for a run and let my wolf out."

Leia fluttered her eyes and gazed at his face. "You do that on every full moon?" She asked, and Adrik shrugged. "Well... depends." He took a low breath and let go of her cheeks, then proceeded to the bed to grab a set of clothing he had brought out.

"What are those for?" Leia raised her brow at him, and he turned to stare at her. "Well, this clothing I am swathed in right now will definitely tear into pieces when I transform into my wolf, so this set of clothing is what I will wear when I am done running." He explained, and Leia's face grimaced.

She walked up to him, placed the back of her hand on his forehead, and slightly shook her head. "I knew it. You have a fever."

Adrik's face altered in confusion, and he stared intently at her. "What do you mean? I am perfectly fine."

"Nope, you're not." She shook her head at him, and his face puckered in deep confusion. "What makes you think I am not fine?"

"Well, if you are, I think you wouldn't try to ruin your clothes and outfit yourself into a new one later on. Rather, you would just simply take this one off before turning into your wolf, and when you're done with running, you can wear it back." She turned around to meet his gaze and smiled at him with a smug look on her face.

Adrik's lashes blinked vigorously, and he cleared his throat. "I did know that... I just didn't really want to, because I have more clothes than I want, so it's not a big deal."

"Oh, really?" Leia chuckled softly and sat down on the bed. "Well, do whatever you want to do. Anyways, I am going with you."

"What!" Adrik's eyes fluttered in bewilderment, and he gazed intently at her. "Why?"

"Because I want to." She shrugged and stared at him with a leisurely look on her face.

"Leia, there are other wolves out-"

"You can't protect me or something?" She smirked as she asked, and Adrik's face darkened instantly. "Grab your sweater and follow me." He said it in a cold, deep tone and turned around, then made his way out of the room.

Leia laughed softly and stood up from the bed, then strolled into the dressing room. She grabbed her sweater and slid into it, then made her way downstairs.

Adrik unlocked the Rolls Royce and stepped into the driver's seat. He started the car engine and drove out of the compound immediately after Leia got in and shut the door.

They sped down the road at a fast speed and finally arrived at the biggest forest any human had ever known. "The Daemonda Forest," Leia whispered, as Adrik slowly turned the car and drove into a narrow path that had leaves everywhere and very tall trees on each side. Darkness shrouded everything, and only the bright light from their car showed them the part ahead of them.

"You know the name of this forest?" Adrik turned his head to glance at her, and she nodded her head, with her eyes darting around in awe. "When I was a kid, my mum always told me about it and even showed me pictures of it.. There was this huge book which she said held the legend, and she always read it to me at night before I went to sleep. "
