Chapter 526

Natalia's tears, which she had been holding back until now, fell on her cheeks.

Adrian's gaze locked on hers. They were dark but familiar to her. His jaw was clenched as if he were trying not to groan in pain.

When his body moved, she came back to reality and gasped.

"Ad-Adrian! What are you-"noveldrama

Adrian pushed her head back, covering her gaze so she could not look at anything.

"Sshh"

His thumb caressed her cheek while pressing her head against his bare chest as if he did not feel anything.

Natalia could feel the heat of the flame whenever the whip touched his back.

"Don't... Don't hit him!"

She exclaimed, crying, but Rick did not stop.

"Look, who has come to protect his wife? The man who can not shift, who can not protect himself, how can he protect his wife?"

Rick's mocking made the witches and wizards laugh. Everyone was aware of Adrian's condition. He had become a puppet of Ansel.

Rick continued to whip Adrian's back. As the flaming whip continued to strike him on his back, his skin began to burn immediately, and his skin began to tear, causing blood to come out of the wounds.

Everyone exclaimed in their mind link. Patric yelled at Adrian through their mind links.

"Adrian!"

Natalia shook her head against his chest. She could not imagine how much pain this man was going through for her.

"Your time is up, Adrian Miller. Why don't you just move aside and let me play with your wi-"

Before Rick could finish, Adrian turned his head to him. The flaming whip was an inch close to hitting his face when he grabbed the whip with his hand.

Rick's eyes widened as well as others.

Natalia noticed what Adrian was doing. She quickly held Adrian's arm to let it go.

But Adrian gripped the flaming whip tightly and yanked it away from Rick's grip.

The whip flew high when Rick let it go. Adrian grasped the stock of the whip with his burned hand and looked at Rick.

"Wanna play with my wife?" he muttered with a deep voice.

His voice held so much power that it caused Ansel to stop chanting. She frowned at Adrian and said in his mind. "You hate Natalia. Support the wizards and kill this woman."

She assumed Adrian would do whatever she told him. However, she did not expect Adrian to smirk at her. "Kill her? Or kill you?"

Ansel was caught off guard. Her eyes widened when she noticed Adrian's eyes had turned completely red.

She rose to her feet and stepped back "H-How... Y-Your eyes..."

Adrian returned his attention to Rick and said,

"First let me play with your husband."

After saying that, he swung the whip and struck Rick. Rick's body fell to the ground as he did not see that coming.

Every time the whip struck his body or his face, he let out a piercing scream.

Natalia stared at Adrian's back, which was wounded badly. She felt pain in her heart. Her wolf was also in pain after seeing that.

But she was shocked when Adrian spoke in anger.

"You dared to harm my wife and the child in her womb. I will not give you an easy death."
