The Dark Side of Fate

34 The New Norm

~Tamia~

After the strange discussion with Stephanie, I wasn’t looking forward to lunch or Dinner.

I noticed she cared about Sylvester and

was possessive about him, too. I needed to be careful not to cause problems

between them.

I sat on the couch in our bedroom, observing what Lilly and Sylvester were

doing.

Although my eyes were fixed on them, Stephanie’s words troubled me because they meant she was pretending the day

we met.

Lily was at the computer in the bedroom working on the codes. At the same time, Sylvester monitored her, and I saw that

he liked her in a sisterly manner. It was

Soon, it was lunchtime, and Sylvester felt

it would be polite to eat with his mother. I

could not say no, so I agreed to go with

him.

Lilly left our room, and Sylvester joined

me on the couch.

“You have been awfully silent since my mother arrived,” he said, kissing the back of my hand, and then he moved to my

neck.

It was official that Sylvester could not keep his hands off me, and I liked it.

“My mark will be here, and you won’t wear your hair down when we are

outside. I want everyone to see it,” he

said, kissing the spot.

I smiled, and he placed his hands on my

thighs.

“Sylvester, we will soon be going for lunch. You know I do not like quickies,” I

said, and he teased me.

“You have been awfully glum since you returned. I was hoping you could share,”

he said, and I knew he was serious even though he sounded playful.

I looked at him and studied his eyes.

“Why did you pick me?” I asked him, and

he smiled.

“I love a strong woman that knows what she wants, can say no and damn the consequences. When I lifted your chin, and you stared into my eyes, against Marcel’s warning, my wolf found a

kindred spirit in Kaira. I was enthralled.”

He said, and I laughed.

“Basically, you like stubborn women,” I said, and he shook his head.

“No, you are just an exception, and I do not want you generalising what we have or how I feel about you,” he said and kissed my lips.

“Did she talk about my scent on you?” He asked me, sensing his mother must have

“She said she would like to get to know me,” I said, which was the nicer version.

of what went down.

“Alright, well we have thirty minutes before lunch, and we can arrive there late anyway.” He said, tugging on my dress, and I let him. We were behaving like teenagers in love.

He wanted me to ride him on the couch, and I giggled because my skills had paid

off somehow.

“Careful, wolf lord, you are getting addicted,” I teased, and he grabbed onto
