Chapter 530 - The Council Head (1)
Adrianna's toes dug the grass beneath them. Every pretense fell in that cave where only the two of them were present. The outside world where they were the King and the Queen, where they had to maintain a façade, melted around them. All she wanted was to let him take her. All he wanted was to fuck her brains out. As the heartbeats accelerated, their skin became hot. Every time Dmitri dug deeper in her mouth, not to explore, but to feel what was his. His kisses fell upon her with such raw intensity that her breathing became fast. He removed the last piece of clothing from her and pressed her against his skin. His hands went to her hips and squeezed them hard before making their way to her sweet spot. Her leg was on his and the juice had started flowing. It made her thighs so wet that when Dmitri slipped his finger inside, she groaned and entwined her tongue with his. He would slip out his finger in and out making her moan every time. He removed himself from her mouth and lowered himself to kiss her breasts. He took a mouthful of them, and nibbled them to his satisfaction, all the time keeping his finger inside. He brought his thumb to her bud and she came. He kissed her stomach, licked her and watched her writhe under his ministrations. Dmitri pulled her under him and as he thrust inside, all Adrianna could see was his face and broad shoulders. She dug her nails in them. Their breaths rose in short exhales. As he pounded her hard, he lowered himself to her mark and licked it again and again, making her want him more. She was insatiable at that moment. "I am going to make you beg baby," he whispered, and Adrianna could do was let out a groan of pleasure.
Adrianna remembered that it was she who had told him that. Her mind was too occupied to even formulate a response. She smiled through her throngs of pleasure. As soon as he was over, he rolled over and started making love to her all over again – this time harder than before.
"Baby if you want me to beg you, you need to stop so that my mind functions," Adrianna said as she writhed with lust when he glossed his tongue over the mark. Once again they fell into throes of primal lust, consumed with desire.
The only noise that came other than their huffs and puffs was the splatter of waterfall on the outside as it crashed onto the rocks. The night sky was inky blue and the moon a faded crescent, playing hide and seek with the clouds that were driven by the soft breeze of the woods.
It was hours before the two of them rested. Once they were completely exhausted, they slept beside each other. Dmitri held Adrianna in his arms as she put her face against his chest. His family was there with him, well protected from the world outside. At that moment that was all that mattered to him.
At night Adrianna fed Ileus and after putting him back to sleep, she went back to Dmitri and curled against him. There were too many things to discuss but this was not the time. She woke up in the morning with Dmitri staring at her with his trademark lop-sided smile. She stretched herself with a yawn and beckoned him to come to her. He slapped her butt cheek and said, "Lazy bum, get up! Because if you won't, I will not let you get out of this cave for the next day too. I am too hungry for you."
Adrianna chuckled. She got up and tied her hair in a bun. "I don't mind staying back for the day if my Alpha promises to blow my mind out," she challenged him. And next moment, Dmitri pinned her beneath him with a growl. She laughed and they played for sometime until they heard a soft cry with a "Da-da."
"Time you feed my child!" Dmitri ordered as he moved away from her to bring Ileus.
"Even the mother needs to be fed," she complained as she watched him pick up the baby from the makeshift cradle.
"I know," he replied with a smile at Ileus who was about to burst in a full-blown cry if not given food. "There's deer meat for you." He gave Ileus to her who was smart enough to immediately grope his mother's breasts and feed.
Dmitri went and brought food for them. He picked up the juiciest piece and gave it to her. She took a bite and chewed it slowly.
"I am sorry about yesterday," said Dmitri as he munched upon a piece of flesh. "But we need to deal with this situation as soon as possible Adri."
"I understand Dmitri," she replied. "There are two options. First, Niiya gives it up himself, second, we try to bring him down if he resists." Adrianna stopped feeling bad about the second option.
"I have a nice plan if you would want to listen to that," Dmitri said tilting his head.
"What is it?" she asked not even bothering to get inside his cell.
Dmitri spoke his thoughts freely, "The Head Council has only one position, which is of the Head. There are way too many realms that report to it and only one person takes decisions for them. The reason is that they all want to integrate their worlds smoothly with the Human World. But there is one thing that I realized being a member of the Council, which is that all these people want positions and more powers. They hate to depend on one person because of constant urgent matters that keep coming up every now and then. With Niiya gone things went awry and there was no one who could take decision for them."
"So you mean that with more positions, the Council will function better?" she asked and stroked Ileus' ears again to tickle him to drink milk.
"Yes, with getting more influential and powerful people into the fold now, we can gain control over it," he suggested.
Adrianna poked her tongue in her cheek. Then she took a deep breath as his idea sank into her. She took another bite from the leg-piece and said, "Dmitri, your idea is pretty good. Rather than getting powerful and influential people, I would suggest that we get people with the right skills. Powerful ones are often ambitious and unscrupulous."
"Well, I don't want any weak ones to be in powerful positions," he countered her.
"Oh no! They would suck up to others in order to gain traction from their resources and connections. And this could mean disaster in the long run." She waved her hand and shook her head. "No way I would want them."
"True," he said. "So how do we go about it? Because I think Niiya is going to oppose this. And it is possible that several others will also oppose it because this was a process they have followed for hundreds of years."
"The trick is to float the idea amongst the Council members and then approach those who like it," Adrianna said. She removed Ileus from her breast, buttoned her shirt and let him sleep in her lap.
"If you are going to tell it out in the open, you will tell them about our idea and even before we will be able to react, we are going to face opposition," Dmitri said with furrowed brows.
"I have made some connections, Dmitri. I will ask them cautiously. However, we need to make sure that Niiya doesn't feel bad about it. And so if you have a plan in which Niiya steps down from the position without feeling sad, do tell me."
Dmitri lowered his head. "This cannot go smoothly Adri. One or the other person is going to get emotionally wounded. It is a very serious matter and has to be handled carefully."
