The Dark Side of Fate Novel Chapter 59 – Talks and Decisions ~Tamia~
Shock could not describe how I felt after
Stephanie had told me everything.
I sat on the couch and stared at her,
speechless.
“Why are you trusting me with this level of information, Luna Stephanie?” I asked her, and she wiped away her tears.
Going down memory lane was hard for
her, and I could see she loved her
husband dearly, just like I loved Leo, and
I wouldn’t have let him go.
To be fair to her, I could understand her
predicament, which was why I had to let
Devin go when he came to me.
I couldn’t be selfish and crush the one
person that dared to love me through my
pain.
My heart truly belonged to Sylvester. I was lucky.
Stephanie did not have a Sylvester that
would sweep her off her feet and rescue her, so she had to deal, but hearing her open up to me like this made me afraid.
I wasn’t her best person; in fact, there was friction between us, and I doubted it
would change. For her to tell me this meant she was desperate.
I tried to remain calm while I waited for
her to respond.
“I think he is behind this, Tamia,” she
said and bowed.
“He might feel cheated. He is an Alpha, and he is older than Sylvester. If he
weren’t a bastard, he would have been the
lord of the north. I am sure he knows I am
the reason Maurice could not marry his
mother properly,” she said, and I
wondered if she was speaking from knowledge and not just a hunch. There was no way she wouldn’t know what was
going on in this David’s mind if she wasn’t privy to it.
I looked at her for a bit.
“Are you sure about these things?” I
asked her, and she nodded.
“I can’t lie about this,” She responded,
and I wanted to beg to differ, but I held
my tongue.
“You know if I tell Sylvester about this man, he will hunt him down, and there will be no going back from this,” I said and sighed.
“Are you sure he is a threat to my mate?” I asked her, letting her know Sylvester
was my first concern, and she nodded. I smiled because I had her right where I
wanted her.
“In that case, I need you to come clean about it. Tell me how you are so sure this man is a threat?” I asked her, and she
looked at me and nodded her head.
“I do not know how to explain it, Tamia, but I just have a hunch. At least let us find him, and then we will know what to do from there,” She explained, and I
understood what she wanted from me.
Stephanie wasn’t sure of her hunch, and she knew Sylvester would not have a subtle approach, and his approach could aggravate this David. She wanted me to tell Sylvester about David and make sure
he is subtle about it.
“Very well then..” I said, and just then, I heard Sylvester’s voice in my head.
“Where are you?” He said, and I knew he had woken up and wondered where I had
gone.
I got off the couch and looked at my
barefoot.
“On my way back to you, darling,” I linked with him, and he was quiet.
“I have to go back,” I told Stephanie, and she nodded and looked at me.
“I am truly happy for both of you. I know it may not seem so, but I am. I am also begging you not to break his heart, Tamia. Susan left my baby wounded, which is why I have been uptight. Please.”
She said and looked at my tummy. (1
“I am sure you two will make a great family,” She said, and I smiled at her.
“I cannot hurt him, Stephanie, and he knows it. I love him with everything I am, and I have turned my back on everything just to be with him. My love and heart are in his hands. I hope he does not break me, ” I said, and she could not speak.
I did not owe her the explanation that I had rejected my fated for his sake. That was to remain between Sylvester and me, but she needed to know that I was in my relationship a hundred per cent, and I did not plan on ever letting my man go.
I hugged her and assured her everything would be alright before leaving her room and heading towards mine. I bumped into Lilly on my way, and she looked at my
foot.
One thing I noticed was she was lurking around our corridors too much. I know Sylvester was easy on her, but this wasn’t her wing.
“Good Evening, Luna,” She said to me, already according me the respect of Luna.
“Hello, Lilly,” I said, and she looked at my barefoot.
“Is that because you are pregnant?” She
asked me with a tinge of jealousy, and I
smiled.
“No, dear, it is so I can sneak around the place unnoticed,” I said and walked away
from her.
I felt her eyes on me, and I turned to wink
at her.
I wanted her relaxed and a little bit on
edge simultaneously. She was bound to make mistakes faster when on edge than
when relaxed.
“I entered the room and went to bed. Sylvester wrapped his arm around me
and kissed my neck.
“The bed was cold,” he said, and I turned
to look at him.
“Since when did a cold bed start troubling
you?” I asked, wanting to laugh.
“When you started sleeping in it, Tamia,”
He said in his low deep voice, and it made me shiver in a good way. Sylvester knew how to turn me on, and this was one of
those.
He came on top, and I knew the night would be longer than expected.
We had breakfast in the morning with our
friends, and Sylvester brought up the
investigation.
“I will want us to go through the things in late Jenny’s house,”
Sylvester said, and Marcel looked at him.
“Have you told the Lawrences about it? Especially Vino. She might be occupying a Babanin seat, but she is still his aunt.” Marcel said, and I was a bit surprised that Jenny was Vino’s aunt, but the name was a dead giveaway. She was Jenny
Lawrence; I just thought she was a
different Lawrence. In light of this, things were a bit confusing in my head. 1
“I do not need permission, especially
when I am trying to figure out why she was killed,” Sylvester said, and Marcel
nodded.
“Sign me up,” Linda said immediately, and Theodore looked a bit pissed at her.
I understood why she committed herself quickly because she knew he would try to stop her because of the pregnancy.
“Are you sure it is the best way to go?” Marcel asked Sylvester, and he nodded.
“I knew my mother wasn’t the target of that attack. Jenny might have been involved in something or known
something to be eliminated.” Sylvester said, and Marcel sighed.
“What about the wire transfers that Lily was working on? Does it show any funds leading to or from Jenny? We have to
check everything knowing that your
father almost wiped them out.” Marcel
asked.
“They should lead somewhere,” Marcel added, and I remembered her phone call and contemplated bringing it up.
“All those anonymous transfers lead to the south, and now some are going east. I have asked Lily to take a break. I cannot leave her with a computer unattended, and I want to spend time with Tamia. So I
will find another way to trace the
transfers,” Sylvester said and touched my hand. He kissed it, making my body
shake.
“I am worried that some people are stationing people in the east and west. With what has happened recently, I hope
an attack that would be blamed on the
north will not ensue. We are yet to
understand why the transfers and the
people they are going to are anonymous. I can’t shake off the fact that everything is
directed at destroying my family. The fact that my father had many enemies does not help matters either. I am thinking of reaching out to the distant Volkovs for help,” He confessed, and I touched his
hand.
“Very well, what time do we go to Jenny’s house, and how many of us are going?” Theodore asked. Sylvester smiled and
kissed my hand again.
“See it more like a date because we are bringing our mates with us,” he said, and Marcel shook his head.
“Avery and I have a doctor’s appointment this morning,” He said, and Sylvester
shrugged.
“Go and return. Pending on what the doctor says will determine whether or not Avery will be coming,” He said, and
Marcel nodded and thanked him.
After the serious discussion, we returned
to our food, and Sylvester could not keep his hands off my body. He got me all
worked up that I might have gone on top
of him in that room.
He breathed in my scent and ensured his pinewood scent surrounded me. He nibbled my ears and sucked on my sweet
spot.
“My mark will be there soon, darling. You will be truly mine,” He linked me, and a faint moan escaped my lips. The room was a bit blurry, and he was getting me worked up.
“I am already yours,” I linked him back, and I felt his tongue brush through, making my body shiver and the hairs on my skin stand because of the goosebumps his action produced.
“Sylvester..” I moaned, and he placed a grape in my mouth, allowing his finger to enter my mouth. I sucked on it to let him
know the work I could do to his cock. He felt it because Knight growled, and Kaira purred in my head.
“You two should get a room,” I heard someone say, but I was too far gone to
know who did. It was between Linda and
Avery.
We finished breakfast, and Sylvester and
I returned to our bedroom.
I was wet and horny, but at the same time, I needed to tell him about Lily. 1
We entered the room, and he rushed at me, ready to take me. As much as I wasn’t selfish, he had ignited a fire that needed attention, so I let him go to work on my
body.
It was a passion-filled morning, and I confessed to all sorts of things.
He made me say something that I
wouldn’t have on a typical day while
hitting the right spot; with his intoxicating scent and the love I felt in my heart, I could promise him the moon, which wasn’t mine to give by the way, but I could hypothetically give it to him
because he had taken me there and back
and he knew it.
We lay on the bed tired, with my head against his chest. I.kissed his chest, and he touched my back gently.
I thought of the few times I heard of him
while I was in the east.
If anyone told me he would be the love of my life back then, I wouldn’t believe them, but the funny part was there was no day that I judged or resented him. It helped me decide to come to the north,
and I was glad I did. 1
“I need to talk to you about something,” I
said, and he made both of us sit so he
could look into my eyes. He looked
worried, so I smiled at him to be calm.
“Are the women in the Harem allowed to have cell phones?” I asked him, and he
froze.
“I can’t let them have cell phones, Tamia; that will defeat the purpose of keeping them in check. They can also betray the north and easily sell information that
way,
” he said, placing his hand on my cheek. He thought I wanted him to give
them cell phones. It was cute.
“I know you are a kind woman, but please
do not ask me to give them a phone.
Please do not ask me to endanger the
north.” He said, and I shook my head and
kissed his hand on my cheek by turning
towards it. I used my hand to gently hold his palm against my face and closed my eyes to relish the feeling.
“I need you to act rational and wisely about what I am about to tell you.
Promise me you won’t lose your shit,” I said, and he looked confused.
“Last night, I decided to check on Avery in her wing, so I left barefoot, knowing my attempt to wear something on my feet would wake you up. While I walked down the hallways, I heard a voice. I hid behind the door to listen; it was Lily talking on a phone. She told someone that things were a bit tight and she couldn’t get something for the person and that the person should wait until during the all-region game
when security is loose,” I said, and I saw rage rise in his eyes. Sylvester looked like he was about to kill someone, and I hoped
it was nothing for Lily’s sake.
