Adrian And Marinette Novels & Stories

At the marina, Adrian was already waiting. His black car was parked not far from the dock. A small suitcase stood beside his feet. He held a paper cup of coffee that, judging by how still his fingers were around it, had to be cold by now. His brown hair was messy, like he had gotten off the plane, gone through immigration, and come straight here without giving his body a chance to decide what time zone it belonged in. The second Poppy saw him, she drew in a breath as if she had found a target.

Then a hand shot out from the side and caught the edge first. Claire Bennett. Adrian's childhood friend from Queens.Three months ago,he had brought her into his company as a brand coordinator,then started taking her to dinners,parties,and rooms where outsiders were never supposed to stand. Claire touched the bouquet,let go as if burned,and the flowers bounced into my arms.The hall went quiet,then exploded. "Adrian!What are you waiting for?" "Eight years,man.Get on one knee!" "Marry her!A Moretti princess does not wait forever!"

“Don’t want to show how gentlemanly your future mate is?” Shame crashed over me like a wave. The mating ceremony between the Massimos and Dominics had been the talk of Mexican City for over a month. Adrian had made sure of that. He’d personally visited every major pack leader, every Alpha in the city to hand-deliver invitations. He loved being the center of attention, loved being on top where he could look down at everyone else like they were beneath him. Naturally, the Northern Pack had been invited too. Despite the rivalry between packs, Adrian wouldn’t dare exclude Killian. He wanted to show off that he was mating with the heiress of the Dominic pack… the daughter of an Alpha.

" She said,Of course she had.We walked through the evening city toward the compound and at dinner Maren had opinions about the people who would be there and the ones who weren't back yet. My phone moved.Drake.I answered."We have them." He said. "All three. Moving now. Three hours.""Anyone hurt." I said."No." He said. "Clean.""Adrian." I said.A brief pause.Then Adrian's voice replaced Drake's. "Here." He said."Three hours." I said."Three hours." He confirmed. "Save dinner.""Maren will." I said. "She's already decided the seating."A sound from his end that was almost a laugh."Three hours." He said.I lowered the phone.Elle was looking at me."Three hours." I said.She nodded once.

She somehow felt guilty and sad even though this incident was not caused by her. “I’ve met Paul. His hatred toward the Coleman family is only one-sided, and this man is now secretly seeking profits and has already gone to extremes.” Marvin sighed. Paul laid low in Sea City. Their company was keeping such a low profile that the public barely noticed them. Adrian and Jasper were best friends. Their families might have barely interacted with each other, but they always hung out with each other since they were children. Adrian spent half of his childhood in the Miller family. Melody cared so much about him that she even recognized him as her godson and let him call her godmother.

And as I looked up at her, even though I knew she hadn’t done anything to me directly, I felt a twinge of resentment towards her. I had to remember to keep my face neutral though, like I'd never heard that name before. I pretended like the name Marco Giordano didn't already live rent free in the corners of my mind, and like my hands weren’t starting to shake just thinking about him. “Adrian’s rival?” I said quietly. "He's another East Coast Don just like Adrian,” she said. “But he’s more evil, and far more dangerous. They’ve been butting heads since they were teenagers."

Even Marina looked at him weirdly. “You think I would come up to you lying about it?” He asked. “Yes, I think you would. There's nothing beneath you Theo, not lies, not shamelessness, nothing.” I said. “Aah but this time you must believe me, Luna. Two of our dear friends are quite romantically entangled.” He said, chuckling. Romantically entangled? Adrianne was having an affair, and with someone according to Theo that I knew of? I eyed him dubiously before shaking my head, I couldn't believe I was going to believe Theo of all people.

"I apologize for not being able to attend your wedding. I really don't agree with Adrian's father's decision first to make this agreement." Again Marie paused. "But seeing your determination to chase Adrian, I'm sure you will love him and it's impossible to hurt him. So..." Marie could be heard taking a deep breath before starting to speak again. Nadine looked nervous waiting for the words that would be spoken by Marie. "I ask, please help Adrian..." Nadine immediately answered Marie's request quickly. "Of course... You don't have to worry, Marie." Adrian was seen occasionally glancing at Nadine suspiciously. He seemed worried that Nadine would be rude and arrogant to his aunt.

he said. 'It's enough. Turns out I was wrong. Meeting and talking to Adrian at the same time will not find a solution.' Lunatte immediately stood up when Adrina intended to touch him again. “Don't touch me. Remember, au is the wife of your brother," said Lunatte. The woman's gaze was so sharp. Staring into Adrian's eyes so boldly. "And I refuse your offer. Conversation is finished. Thank you for taking your time to talk to an insignificant person like me,” said Lunatte. No, she couldn't be in that room any longer. This conversation was enough to make her sick.

They walked side by side while looking at the scenery around the inn, the houses with classic Amsterdam buildings looked beautiful covered in snow that was falling slowly. "So I can start asking questions?" Jenna turned to look at Adam who was walking beside her. Adam's ears looked red with cold. They both forget to wear headgear or earplugs. Adam nodded curtly, "Yes. Only about the Marriage Contract," he said without turning his head. Jenna nodded, she was composing a question in her head when suddenly Adam asked. "So you're going to be married off to an old man with a lot of warts?"
