The Dark Side Of Fate By Karima Sa’ad Usman Chapter 121

~Tamia~

Getting Nicole and the children settled in wasn’t a challenge. The children were pleasant and a joy to have around. They were eight years old, and I was a bit envious of them but glad I had my little bundle of joy growing inside me.

“Lady Tamia, I am grateful that you would welcome us into your home,” Nicole said while her husband helped put their bags in the room. It was my old room.

I thought Amanda would be in it, but I was told Sylvester changed his mind about putting her there and put her in the smaller room.

“Oh, I am not Lady yet. Our wedding is in two weeks. Stephanie Volkov is still the Lady of the north; they refer to me as Luna for now, and having you in this place is a joy. It is also your home,” I said, and she smiled and came to hug me.

“Thank you so much. It really means a lot. We had been running around and hiding before we had our triplets. At least now we can rest.” She said, and my heart broke.

Hearing her say they have not known peace for the years they have been together was hard. It is the worst thing that can ever happen to anyone.

“Please rest,” I said, and she held my hand.

“If there is anything you need me to help with, kindly let me know. I am good with house chores,” She said and looked at her husband.

“We do not plan to be freeloaders here. We would like to earn our keep,” she said, and my heart broke into pieces. David is a Volkov. I wonder how he grew up and how they have lived for them to be this way.

“I am sure Sylvester would find a place for his brother. As for you, you’re a luna here too, so start acting like one. My friends and I are having evening tea later; I would like you to join us,” I told her, and she looked at David, who nodded.

I did not know if Sylvester would want to spend time with his brother and get to know him. We were planning an operation; I could not jeopardise it and send David to where Sylvester was having his meeting. I would have to allow Sylvester to move at his own pace.

“Do you know where my older brother is?” David asked me, and I knew he was talking about Dominic.

Dominic might have changed, but he was still a douchebag.

“You mean Dominic?” I said, and he nodded.
