The Dark Side of Fate

Chapter 18

18 The Northern Gate

-Sylvester-

There was no disputing the fact that there

was chemistry between Tamia and me.

As I got to know her more, I realised she was genuinely innocent.

It was hard taking my heart out of the

equation.

Although nothing had transpired between us, she was claiming my heart, and there was nothing I could do about it.

That was precisely why I refused to touch

her.

I did not know how it would end, and neither

of us needed to get hurt the second time.

So I walked away every time she created an

opportunity for me.

After she boldly invited me into her room, I

realised I couldn’t put it off any longer.

It was unfortunate how it all began, and the reason why I brought the three of them here

was cruel. 1

It was safe to say that I was looking out for my people, but it was no longer about keeping my enemies close; it was now a matter of the heart. After reading Leonardo’s letter, I realised attacking his pack was wrong. He wasn’t a part of it.

Going horse riding was a great move to get to know Tamia better, but I had to step back when she took the giant leap. Now I was willing to jump.

When Kaira went on a rampage, I realised her feelings were genuine and had nothing to do with survival.

say.

When I carried her to my room, I knew this

was it.

It all happened fast, and I realised fate had

blessed me with her. 6

We left the garden when it was dark, to have

dinner.

Tamia tried to get us to go to the room first,

but I refused.

I knew what she wanted and would not have

the will to say no.

I knew I was postponing the inevitable since we both slept in the same room together.

We entered the dining together, and I noticed that Marcel and Avery weren’t all

over each other as usual.

I hoped for all our sakes they weren’t

fighting because I wanted my Beta at his

best all the time. 2

Marcel had jumped before Theodore and me.

Even though he denied it, I knew his heart

was invested in it.

No one asked us to get involved with these women, or fall in love with them. It just happened naturally. 1
