The Dark Side Of Fate By Karima Sa’ad Usman Chapter 224

The Dark Side Of Fate 62 Still On The Issue (Book 2)

~Leo~

I sat still for a bit, trying to process what Andrew had just told me. I did not want to believe him, but my parents weren’t around to defend themselves. Judging by their call, they did sound like they were in trouble and on the run from something. If what Andrew had just told us was true, then this shit was bigger than us.

Devin, white as a sheet, leaned forward to speak to Andrew.

“Are you telling us the truth?” he asked, and Andrew nodded.

“I have no reason to lie.” Andrew defended.

” Study their pattern, and you will see. Erik plans to wipe out the royals and their entire clan, starting with the lords, their children, and the King, his mate and children. He believes that once they are out, the rest of the families will be easy to kill. Then he would install himself as the new King. Yuri plans to take over the south and east and install himself as King. He isn’t interested in killing the Volkovs. Once Mountain and Greenville falls, he would control the two regions.

As for Amelia, Erik plans to mate her with his son, Maksim, for the stronger pup.

The bastard experimented on his mate a lot, and his son is the closest he could get to Adrik’s genes, so he hunted Luis until he killed him.

Erik had always wanted Luis dead because, with Luis out of the way, Erik had a chance of being the heir,” Andrew said that was a flawed reason because Yuri was Luis’s first cousin.

” Wouldn’t the burden fall on Yuri after Luis’s death?” I asked, and Andrew nodded.

“Following the natural order, Erik did not plan on doing that. Yuri would have been killed if Sylvester Volkov did not install himself as King.” Andrew said.

“So you mean Erik would murder the only person that would give him claim to the throne? The only person that is working with him for his ambition?” Devin asked, and Andrew sighed.

“What drives the two of them is different. Whereas Yuri wants to avenge his family and restore their glory, Erik wants to rule the world. He wanted to attain a height he would have never reached under normal circumstances. On the surface, they seem to both aim for the same thing, but they aren’t.

Yuri is still pained by the death of his father and uncle. What Dimitri did was unforgivable. Setting Adik up just to kill him was wrong,” Andrew said, and I wanted him to tell me more. I was in the middle of it, so I needed to know everything.

“What did Dimitri claim that Adrik did?” I asked, hoping they could tell me their side of the story. So far, we had only known Volkov’s side.
