The Dark Side of Fate

Chapter 197

Chapter 36

~Amelia~

We ate in silence.

I felt the awkwardness in the air, but Leah got what she deserved.

It was wrong and highly presumptuous of her to assume Leo would bend to her will. No doubt she had the hots for him, but Leo had shown her he wasn’t interested.

It had nothing to do with us being together or being fated. Leo had shown her that he did not see her that way. I was there for some of it, and her thinking she could force her way in was wrong.

Leo’s heart was hardened, and it took a lot of patience to break through. He rejected me without considering the consequences; it just shows how damaged he was.

Even though we were fated, I still had it at the back of my mind it wouldn’t work out. If it weren’t for his promises while we made love, I wouldn’t think much or hope for much.

It was wrong of Leah to think she could force her way in, and it was wicked of her mother to lead her on.

Linda pinched my thigh gently.

It was just sad that we could not link each other, or else we would have been gossiping by now.

“Are you alright?” Leo asked me with a gentle voice.

I looked at him and nodded with a smile.

The gentleness in his eyes let me know that he cared, but I had only seen him look at me like that.

It was different from how he looked at others.

I know he has broken many personal rules for my sake, and I hoped he would soon take the final step so we could have something solid and definite.

“I am alright,” I said, and he smiled at me and placed his hands on my thigh.

He squeezed and caressed it gently. I had to control myself because of the tingles I felt with every touch.

“Goddess, he is something else,” Aurora said while she purred in my head.

Leah returned halfway through the dinner, looking put together.

Her mother had created a place for her beside her at the other side of the table, far away from Leo.

I hoped they got the message this time.

“I want to apologise for my earlier outburst,” Leah said and sat down.

She did not spare us a glance, and soon I realised that she would not stir things up.

After dinner, we were ushered to a room to mingle. Linda and Avery were beside their husbands, so I had to remain by Leo.

Many people came to speak to Leo about security and other things. Some discussed their prayers to the King

so Leo could table the matter at the council meeting, and I felt awkward.

There was an Alpha Christian who happened to be the Head alpha of the north that pulled Leo to the side to have a private discussion with him.

Leo did not want to leave my side, but I told him it was okay and that I would wait for him.
