The Dark Side of Fate

{Book 2} Chapter 45 – ~Leo~

Everything has felt so wrong for a while now. Refusing to reject Amanda, cohabiting, and touching her even during the pregnancy felt so wrong that I doubted my reality so many times.

It became raw when Tamia left me, and I believed I would never find love again. I believed that was it for me. I had blown my chance at happiness all because of fate.

When I thought I would move on without love, fate threw me a surprise called Amelia.

I remembered her standing by the Vanity table in my room covered in soot and holding Tamia’s jewellery. I remembered all that transpired that night.

I fought myself from allowing the fate bond to overwhelm and take over, and I won. I foolishly rejected her when I should have held her and never let her go.

I was grateful that fate tied me to Amelia. She was patient with me. She did not mount pressure and allowed me to move at my pace. I knew it was hard for her, especially when she was carrying the bond alone, but I was glad I came to my senses on time.

I had called Casper to get me the ring the day before the accident. I had planned it all; I wanted it to be unique.

I had rehearsed my words throughout our flight back and prayed that she would not freak out and say no.

Forever was a long time and a solemn commitment, one I was afraid she wasn’t ready for.

The moment Black and I sank our teeth in, I felt our bond snap into place, and a wave of peace came over me. The type that I had longed for a while.

I held her tight, promising never to let her go. Then she sank her teeth in and claimed me; I knew she promised the same.

I held on to my mate in bed, knowing it would be different this time. I promised to do everything I could to keep her safe, love her, care for her, make her happy and keep her. I made a silent promise to myself, wolf and bond, never to betray my mate. I planned to make her forget the pain in her past and look into the future.

A lot of things reeled through my mind. A family, a home and a life. I could not wait for what the future will bring.

We fell asleep and woke up in the evening.

Amelia was the first to wake up. I saw her coming out of the closet with a broad grin on her face. I wondered what she was doing in there. Maybe she went to be sure Tamia’s things were no longer there. The moment the thought crossed my mind, I shrugged it off because Amelia wasn’t the petty kind.

Her hair was tied up to show off my mark, and I smiled. I was glad she was proud of it.

“Up already?” I asked her, getting out of bed, and she nodded and smiled at me.

“Had to move my things into the closet,” She said, and I smiled at her. Amelia had a different countenance from Tamia. Where Tamia was serious and a bit reserved, Amelia was playful and out there. Her personality suited me best.

“I want to cook dinner,” she said, and I began to dress up.

“Let me help,” I said, and she accepted my help but did not wait for me. She headed out to the kitchen. I dressed up in a hurry and went to join her.

Max was on the couch watching television. He looked in my direction when I stepped out of the room, smiling at the mark on my neck.

“It’s about time, Leo. I was telling Amelia how hungry I was, ” he said, and I laughed, then headed to the kitchen to help my luna.

Amelia smiled when she saw me, and I went to her and asked her what she needed help with.
