The Dark Side of Fate

The Dark Side Of Fate By Karima Sa’ad Usman Chapter 149 – ~Sylvester~

I remained attentive, listening to all that Larry had to say. I will be attentive as long as he doesn’t use the pouch in his hand.

I also had to think of what to do if he blew the silver dust into the air.

If that happened, I told everyone to hold their breath and head to the exit. Hopefully, we weren’t locked in.

“Your father and his friends didn’t only ruin her; they told her I could do nothing about it. That she should be grateful that they fancied her enough to touch her.

They told her no one would care even if she reported.

It was common to practise, and they were right.

I knew Maurice initiated it, and those two joined him as always,” he said and chuckled.

“I always wondered if they would share their mates like that, but they never did. This implies they knew what they were doing was wrong and degrading, but they felt it was okay since they could get away with it. Their jobs were to protect, lead and serve the people, not ruin lives.

They broke homes and ruined lives.

They separated mates and took women from their homes for personal pleasure, under the guise that there should always be a harem in the estate according to the kings before the lords.

A habit you and your friends embraced until recently.

I must commend your last procurements from the east for holding you three down. It also let me know that just like those three bastards that fathered you three, the three of you are capable of falling in love,” he said and smiled.

“I returned home from the mission and found Emily depressed. She had lost the baby due to the incident but refused to tell me what had happened.

I was devastated, but I was willing to try again,” he said, and I could see tears welling up in his eyes.

It was as if he was reliving the memory again.

“I would have tried, but she had given up. She said it did not matter that it could happen again.

I did not know what she meant by it until she ended herself, leaving me a note of the account of unspeakable things that the three men did to her.

I will never forget her final words in that letter. I still have it to date.

She said if I love her and care about our world, I should save our people from the monsters that rule them. These were her words,” he said and sighed, composing himself to recite Emily’s words.

“If you love me and care about our world and its people. Then you will know this world would be safer without the Volkovs, Sidorovs and Orlovs ruling it.

I am just one of many. Maurice might have implied you to be a powerless nobody, but I know you have it in you to stop their menace and make sure they nor the rest of their lineage ever do this to anyone again,” he said and looked at me.

“Your fathers went on as if they had done nothing wrong. They had destroyed three lives, and they just went on like that.
