The Dark Side of Fate

Chapter 62

62 Private Dectectives

~Sylvester~
Tamia was very angry about Lily’s betrayal; I could feel it in her. I tried to calm her down as we walked back to the room.
“We must search all the women in the harem and all the lunas working here. Everyone that has come to live here through war,” She said, and I could understand her reason.
There was no way they would be happy about being away from their loved ones. The fact that they could start an uprising right under my nose spoke volumes, and I knew it was best to do as Tamia had instructed. There was nothing more deadly than the enemy within.
“Very well, I will instruct the officers to do as you have instructed,” I told her, and she nodded.
I asked her to follow me to my office so I could set some things in motion.
It wasn’t long after we were in the office when my mother knocked on the door.
I knew it was her because I could smell her jasmine perfume.
She entered and looked at Tamia.
“What is this I hear of traitors in the estate?” She asked, and I knew news
must have reached her by now, and she only came to clarify what she had heard.
“Lily was the one that set Dominic up. She had been communicating with a man and a woman we do not know, but she has given us a name,” I her, and she smiled.
“I knew my baby had no hand in this,” She said almost with a celebratory tone, and I nodded so she would know that she had won.
“Yes, yes, but if he did not spend his time trying to cause my downfall, I would not have believed the allegations against him, “I told her.
“I think we should sweep your office for spy devices,” Tamia said, interrupting my mother and me.
“Our bedroom too. We need to be sure
Lily was not actively spying on us,” She said, and I understood her. Lily had access to my office and bedroom. She could have as well planted things in my office.
“Maybe we should torture it out of her,” my mother said, and I understood her rage.
Just then, Marcel linked me that they were back.
“Mother, please excuse Tamia and me; we have things to do today. I will speak to you when we return,” I said, and she nodded.
Tamia frowned at me, so I had to link her.
“Marcel and Avery are back, let’s go to their wing, and then we can leave for Jenny’s house from there,” I said, and she stood up immediately.
I could see the eagerness in her eyes, and I smiled, hopeful that our trip to the beta’s wing would lighten her mood more.
We left my mother in my office, but I informed kappa William to sweep my office and room for bugs.
If any were found there, I would be annoyed with Lily. I was already pissed off with her, but I knew it would be worse.
We arrived at the beta’s wing and headed to Marcel’s room. I was worried for them but optimistic at the same time.
It would be nice to welcome our children into the world around the same time, but it wasn’t really up to us.
Marcel and Avery seemed happy, and I had linked my friend when Tamia went to speak with Avery.
“How did it go?” I asked him, and he nodded.

“We are both fine. The doctor said she should be calm about it and that she was overthinking it. There is nothing wrong with either of us,” He said, and I sighed.
“What is this I hear about Lily?” He said aloud, and I sighed.
Just then, Theodore and Linda arrived.
They were already dressed for our mission at Jenny’s house.
I knew Linda was the one behind it. The woman was eager to go out and do something. I wouldn’t blame her.
Theodore was overprotective about her pregnancy, and I knew it would get to her eventually.
“You needed to be there,” Theodore said to Marcel, joining our conversation.
“Tamia whacked the hell out of the bitch, ” he said, and I looked at him.
Avery and Linda looked at Tamia.
“Yes, I did,” She admitted.
“The bitch deserved it. All because
Sylvester didn’t fancy her,” She said, and
Avery was shocked. (1
“Did she say that?” She asked, and Tamia shook her head.
“No, she didn’t, but that is the truth. She claimed they tried recruiting her a few months before we arrived in the north. Suddenly her recruiter miraculously had the idea to threaten her family to make her do what they wanted a few months after Sylvester got with me. The bitch was sitting on the fence all this while, and she snapped.
when Sylvester got with me, she
It is as simple as that,” Tamia said, and Linda growled.
“Tell me you drew blood, Tamia,” She said, and I was shocked. These women were dangerous.
“More than she could spare. She was lucky it was a controlled environment. I am not done with her yet,” She said, and Theodore linked me.
“I would not want to be on her bad side,”
he said, and I nodded.
“Very well, are we ready to go to Jenny’s?
I asked, and everyone was a bit excited.
It wasn’t a date, we were going to snoop in a dead woman’s house, but it seemed exciting to everyone. I hope we find something exciting there, and hopefully, it leads us somewhere.
Tamia and I returned to our bedroom to get dressed to go to Lucland.
I wanted us to spend the night in our house there, so I called the staff to prepare the place.
I was hoping to have fun with my friends and my luna.
We rode in our jeeps as always.
Tamia seemed excited and nervous at the same time.
I wondered if it were the hormones, and I placed my right hand on her thigh and squeezed gently.
We arrived at Jenny’s house, and I was surprised that no one was in sight. I had asked that the place be guarded, but it seemed no one was there.
“Did we not put guards to guard the place?” Marcel asked, and I wondered why he was asking me these questions.
“I will call Kappa Wilson to find out why no one is here,” Theodore said, and we entered the building.
It was dark and dusty, and I did not think it was safe for pregnant women to inhale so much dust, but I knew Linda and Tamia were stubborn, most especially Linda, who had been dying to leave the estate.
Avery found a switch and switched on the
light, and the living room looked trashed.
Tamia rushed to the door in the corridor and tried the lock, but it was locked. The door seemed to lead to the hallway that led to the rooms and probably her office.
She examined the lock, and I moved close to see what she was looking at while the others snooped around the anteroom and the living area.
“There are scratches on the wood,” She said, and I knew what it signified.
“Someone tried to get in forcefully but failed. Maybe there were guards, or the person ran off, but it seemed they did not have the time to break through discretely. I guess it was because people were guarding the place. If not, they could have smashed the door to get through.” She pointed out.
I touched the door to understand the type of wood it was made of, but immediately,
I felt a familiar weakness that comes with silver.
“Thick Oak. It would not have been easy even for a wolf because it has silver in it.”
I said, feeling weak just by touching the door.
“Jenny wanted to keep people out,’
Tamia said, and I smiled.
“Do not overthink it, darling. She might have only been protecting herself. She lives alone, you know,” I said, and Tamia smiled.
“We need to find a way in,” I said, trying to see how best to bring the door down.
Tamia took out two pins from her hair and smiled at me. I was amazed when I watched my mate pick the lock on the door.
“How did you know how to do this?” I asked, and she laughed.
“Leo and I used to…” She said and looked at me worriedly as if she had said something wrong.
