My Mate Sent Me To Prison I Return As His Nightmare novel Chapter 72

Azriel's POV 

I was surprised when Wolf came to get me urgently, he must have been worried that the vampire would hurt Adira as she almost did last time. 

I met the vampire female in a bar while I was undercover, and she helped me from a dire situation so I repaid the favor by granting her access here since she had nowhere to go and would have gotten herself killed. The vampire was depressed the first year as she was separated from her love and had been trying to get him back to no avail. 

For so long, I've tried to help her find him but it's ineffective because he is locked away by a powerful shifter.

As we walked back, Adira was asking many questions that I didn't answer.

"Is she your lover?" I didn't answer her, even though I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs that It was HER I wanted.

"Kate told me you fancy me, is that true," I stopped walking. My heart was pounding at an irregular pace even though I tried to tame it. I smirked, " Would you like that?" She hesitated to answer, and I watched her intently. Her lips parted to speak but she closed them shut. This was getting interesting. Adira swallowed before she took a step back.

"No," 

"Are you sure?" 

"Yes," she moved past me. "You're so full of yourself," she muttered.

I fucking desired Adira Wade, but who wouldn't. She was one of a kind in every way possible. I couldn't have her though maybe that's why I was desperate for her. She was Wyatt's and I made a vow to never make a move on her even though I wanted to. 

I watched her angrily storm away, hitting branches and leaves without a care. I sighed and quietly followed her. 

"Adira," I called, she abruptly turned to me, looking fierce. 

"What?" 

"Wrong way," I pointed her in the right direction and she aggressively went there with a scowl. 

"Are you mad at me?" I asked. 

"No," 

"Then why aren't you talking," 

"You wanted me to shut up, didn't you," 

"Dance with me good sir," she said dramatically and I smiled, getting her hand and leading her to the dancefloor. My eyes met Adira's and she smiled at me, acknowledging me. It warmed my heart even though I didn't react to it. 

"For your safety stay away from the Luna," Millie said softly and I rolled my eyes.

"Okay," I simply agreed with her to finish this conversation. 

"Azriel, the king is madly in love with that woman, he broke a blood oath for her- Our Alpha broke a pledge to one of the most powerful packs in the city for HER and went against prominent members of parliament to be with her. I don't want to imagine what he'll do when he finds out you want her," Millie looked worried about me, and I sighed. 

Wyatt knew I had a fondness for his woman, that's why he made me vow to never act on whatever silly emotions I might have for Adira. He didn't know the depth of ' my silly emotions' as he called them, and that's why he hadn't taken substantial measures against me. If he knew the profundity of my feelings for Adira, he'd kill or banish me.

"I'm not acting on my... Affection for her," I assured Millie and she nodded.

"It's a good thing she's going back to her former pack for a few days, you need to focus on someone other than her, and boom, your feelings might vanish," Boom, she said, if only it were that easy.

Adira will go back to the people who hurt and tortured her. It would open old scars and I hated that I couldn't be with her, to protect her. 

'Alpha Azriel, we have a problem,' One of my men patrolling the area mind-linked me.
