The Dark Side of Fate

Chapter 180

~Leo~

The call I got from Casper didn't sit well with me. Trackers that did not belong to the pack of an ally were a problem. I did not know what or who they were tracking, and the fact that I wasn't in the Mountain to protect and defend my territory was an issue. I looked at Amelia and Max, where they stood waiting to see our bags and knew I had to make a careful judgment call. Attending the meeting was compulsory, but remaining in the north was optional. I also need to stay to help Amelia with her lineage. Deep down, I knew something would have to give.

I braced myself and hoped Casper would be able to handle the matter and that they would not need me in the east because it would suck if I had to leave Amelia behind and go back to the east.

Knowing she was being careful, I did not want her to think I was dumping her or trying to get away from her. She might not make a fuss, but I knew it would hurt her.

I plastered a half smile on my face and moved toward them.

"How do you feel, Moonlight," I asked her, and she beamed at me.

It was obvious she was enjoying the experience.

Unlike her, Max and I wanted to get our luggage and get out of the place. People had begun to recognise me, and I did not need the attention I was obtaining.

To my surprise, our luggage was brought in a trolly.

"Councilman, Albert. Welcome to Lucland," The man pushing the trolly said with the utmost respect, and I thanked him.

I knew we needed to get out of there immediately before the cameras got involved.

Too late. I saw the first flash, grabbed Amelia's hands, and began walking quickly towards the arrival section's exit.

I hoped the camera wouldn't give chase, but they did, and the moment we were out the door, they were in our faces.

I heard Amelia giggling and looked at her.

She seemed to be enjoying the attention, and it was cute. She was even posing playfully. I wondered if she would laugh so much if she realized she would be on the front page of a tabloid the next day.

"They will print it in the papers," I linked her, and she froze.

Just then, the car taking us to the hotel pulled up in front of us.

I opened the door for Amelia to enter, then followed her in.

Max sat in front, and the driver started the engine.

"Is it always like this?" Amelia asked, and I nodded.

"That is why I like the east. I am not a celebrity there," I teased, and she laughed.
