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.

I haven’t been relaxed in a long time.

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

As crude as it was and as crazy as it seemed, Kaira had said everything Tamia could not

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
