The Dark Side of Fate

40 Morning After.

-Tamia-

I woke up in the morning with a smile on my face.

Sylvester was a beast last night, and I enjoyed every bit of it. Now every time I remembered last night, I

would want to experience that level of love.

He did not hold back last night; I was sure

everyone heard us. I knew I said some pretty wild gibberish stuff while he took me out of the world and

back.

I looked at Sylvester, who stood by the

window, naked.

The blinds covered the window, but he was peaking through the side to see

outside.

“Did you sleep well, green-eyes?” He said

and looked at me with a smile. His hair

fell nicely on his shoulders, and he looked so handsome that I wanted him to join

me in bed so we could cuddle.

“Come back to bed; it is still early,” I said,

and he smiled and came to join me in bed.

I snuggled into his arms and placed my

head on his chest.

“I had fun last night,” I said, closing my eyes to recollect the feeling. He laughed. and gently stroked my

hair.

“I love making love to you, Tamia,” he confessed, and I looked at him.

“Were you jealous last night?” I asked

him.

“You looked so beautiful last night, and you let Vino make you smile,” he said, and I laughed and

touched the tip of his nose with my finger.

“I am yours, regardless of who I smile

with,” I said, and he held me tight.

“I know, but I can’t help it,” he

confessed, and I laughed.

“Well, if that is how you punish me, then

more offences are coming,” I said,

remembering what we did.

He touched my hand and kissed it.

“I can’t wait to start a family with you,

Tamia. I am a bit jealous of Theodore and Linda,” he confessed, and I smiled

because I felt the same way.

“Me too. I felt a tinge of jealousy, and I

am eager for that to be us soon.

It wasn’t a big deal with Leo, but I want

us to be a family, Sylvester. I love you so

much that I want to be the mother of your

children and have little us running about

the place. I really want it, and I hope it

happens soon. It is a journey I am eager to make with you,” I confessed, and he

kissed my hand.

“Me too, Tamia. Me too,” he said, kissing the top of my head and stroking my hair.

I prayed we get the news soon,

too,

because it would be nice.

We stayed in bed for a bit, soon showered together, and got dressed to join the rest of the guests for

breakfast.

I knew we won’t be coming back to the room when I saw our driver walk past us. Just as they placed

our stuff in the room, he had gone to pack our clothes from the

room.

We arrived at the dining room, and two

chairs at the head of the table were left

empty while our host, Vino, and the rest of the guests occupied the remaining

seats.

The seating arrangement was made according to the level of importance. I assumed Sylvester and I

would sit at the

head because Theodore and Linda were

on the side, and Marcel and Avery were

on the other side. Next to Marcel and

Avery were Dominic and Glenda; next to

Theodore and Linda was Vino and, to my

surprise, Lily. I wondered when she

arrived.

Sylvester and I went to sit at the head of the table, and people greeted us. From the way some of them

looked at us, it was

clear they heard us last night.

It was only some of the guests that were

at the party who were present at

breakfast. I guess only a few of us were

invited to breakfast. Roughly twenty-six people attended, and there was a wide spread of food on the

table.

“When did Lilly come?” I asked Sylvester

through the mind link.

“She arrived with Dominic and Glenda.

She really wanted to come, so I asked Vino to have her as his plus one. Since he

had no date, he obliged, but they are friends, and there is nothing between

them. I wanted her to have some fun after

being cooped up in the house,” He said,

and I understood his reason.

Now that you have said that, I think we

need to let some women settle in the

town. They do nothing at the estate. I know they are your trophies…” I linked with him, but he stopped

me by interrupting me.

“You are Luna; you can do whatever you like. I won’t be taking trophies anymore. If you do not want

them in the estate, I understand. Whatever you decide is okay.

I have never had relations with the

women presently living in the mansion, and I will never,” he said, and I smiled at

him.

We ate in peace, and when we were done, we were asked to socialise a bit before going home.

Larry walked up to Sylvester, and I could tell Sylvester did not like the man. Larry was with a pretty

brunette who was staring lustfully at Sylvester, and Larry knew she was; what was his problem?

“Hello, Alpha Volkov,” The woman said, and Sylvester did not find it funny, but she hadn’t done

anything wrong.

“Hello, eh eh..” the woman said, trying to speak to me in a derogative manner.

“Is she an addition to your new harem? She reminds me of myself, enthralled by

you,” She said and smiled at me, then

extended her hand.

“Hello, I am Arya Micheals, his ex-lover, and I believe the best he ever had,” she

said and smiled at Sylvester.

“You said so, remember,” she said, winking at Sylvester. He wanted to speak, and I stopped him and

shook her hand.

“Nice to meet you, Arya; I have heard

about you from the other girls in the

harem. I am Tamia Albert, his fiancée and future luna,” I said, and her smile dropped.

I saw a twitch of disbelief in her eyes. It was blinking on its own, and I wanted to laugh.

“How could you?” She told him with tears in her eyes. 1

“What does she have that I don’t?” She

asked, and Sylvester smiled at her and pulled me close to him by my waist.

“Isn’t it obvious?” he asked her, and she looked at me.

“He moves on quickly,” she linked me,

and I realised she was still a member of

his pack.

“I guess I will enjoy it while it lasts,” I said, touching my chest with my left hand so she could see the

emerald engagement ring in my hand.

The woman looked at Larry, and I

realised Larry had brought her to us

deliberately. I realised Larry wanted to

cause a problem between us.

She walked away feeling hurt, and

Sylvester pulled Larry close by the collar.

I touched his hand to release the man. 1

“It didn’t mean anything. I had fun talking to her, Sylvester; let him go, please,” I pleaded with him so he

would

know that it did not bother me.

“Pull that kind of stunt again, and I will beat you up. I will show you how far I am

willing to go to drive my point.” He said and let Larry go.

Just then, Theodore walked up to us and

punched Larry in the face. The man fell

down.

It all happened so fast, and the room was at a standstill. Theodore was furious, and I wondered what

Larry had done to him.

“Who the fuck do you think you are, inviting all the women from our harem for breakfast? Do you want

to ruin my relationship? Your actions upset Linda,” he said and tried to lift him up, but Sylvester stopped

him.

“You have to let me at him, Sylvester. Beatrice really upset Linda. We do not need that kind of energy

right now,”

Theodore said, and I looked in Linda’s direction. She looked annoyed.

“Leave him alone,” Sylvester told

Theodore. If I doubted Theodore was an

Alpha, this was proof. His rage was affecting me, and I clung to Sylvester.

“You need to calm down,” Sylvester

ordered Theodore.

Larry wiped away the blood in his mouth

and looked around. Then just as consistently, Dominic came to his aid.

“He has done nothing wrong. Why tag team on the old man with your friends, Sylvester? You are a

bully; first, you

increased taxes for the poor people in the

west, then you attacked them with your army, and now you are beating a council member because he

invited women you and your friends used, abused and

dumped. Where do your cruelty and incompetence stop?” He asked and

turned to look at the rest of the guests.

“Behold your lord of the north and his

goons,” He said, and Sylvester was mad.

He pulled Dominic by the collar, and I let

him because Dominic had gone too far.

“If I find out that you were the one that set me up by increasing the taxes and attacking the villagers in

the west like you attacked Bane in the south, I swear I

won’t say you are my brother; I will end

you. Your hunger for power is making you plot against me. I swear I won’t let it go.

Not even mother will stop me from dealing with you,” Sylvester said and flipped the narrative.

Dominic began to laugh, and Sylvester let him go.

“Nice one; try to feign innocence because you know your days are numbered. You, of all people, know

that isn’t my style. I know you did it, Sylvester, and I will prove it,” he said.

“And what will be his gain?” I asked him, angry at how he spoke to my man.

“Shut your trap, eastern whore, no….”

And Sylvester sent him a punch before he

could finish the sentence.

He knelt over Dominic and began to

punch him.

“Have I not warned you?” He said, livid,

and I tried to stop him.

Theodore and Marcel had to help pull

him off.

Dominic was in shock on the floor. He

wasn’t expecting Sylvester to lose his shit

like that.

“You disrespect her like that again, and I

will do worse,” Sylvester yelled at

Dominic. I was embarrassed by how

people were watching us.

“I did nothing wrong by calling you out on your wickedness,” Dominic replied.

“And what would be his gain?” I asked in tears seeing how determined the arsehole

was to ruin his brother’s reputation.

“What is his gain, Dominic? Why would he increase taxes and then kill people in the west? Why? Just

tell us his benefit and gain in all this?” I said, and he was speechless.

“Do not let your envy for your brother ruin the family’s name and the family. It is just the two of you. You

keep doing this, and you will be alone, Dominic. Do you think Larry cares about you? He doesn’t, I said

and held Sylvester’s hand.

“Let’s go home,” I said, and Sylvester was stunned, but he pulled me close, held me and kissed the top

of my head to calm

me down. In those moments, I did not care that everyone was looking at us. He was all that mattered.

Vino came to apologise, and we left

quietly.
