The Dark Side of Fate

107 Ready To Leave

~Leo~

Morning finally came, and it was time to head to the north. I felt uneasy about the trip but knew it must be my nerves. I was a bit unsettled about it.

"You need to relax, you know," Amelia said, hugging me from behind when she joined me in the shower. I touched her hand on my chest and turned to look at her. She looked relaxed and more put together than I did. I bet the women had more fun than us because we spent our time planning and discussing our moves.

I bent to kiss her, and she returned the kiss wholeheartedly. I wasn't going to pass off on the opportunity to make love to her before the day started. So, I backed her against the wall, lifted her, and buried myself. She was eager and ready for it. We both wanted the same thing. Desire rose in me, and my body moved on its own, grateful for the comfort I was getting and the love Amelia was giving. I waited for her to come before I let myself finish. Then I took my time to wash her body gently. Her hair was growing fast, and she had almost six inches of her actual hair colour. I could not get enough of my mate and could not wait for the blue moon to marry her.

We did not need it but chose to copy Tamia and Sylvester. Sylvester told me the feeling was intense on the blue moon night. Since my only experience was with a chosen, I wanted to experience it this time with a fated.

It would also make every Bluemoon night memorable for us. I was glad she wouldn't be heavy by then, so shifting for the wolf-claiming ceremony would be easy for Amelia.

We left the shower and started preparing for the trip.

Our bags were packed with the hope that we would not need to spend more than a week in the north because I could not leave the east unattended.

I trusted everyone that I would be leaving behind, but I was still Head alpha. It was my duty to ensure things were running well in the east; that was my first assignment before any office I occupied, and I did not take it lightly.

"I think we should disguise Erik as a woman," Amelia said, wearing an elegant, short cream dress. It had short sleeves and a round neck. She looked serious and smart at the same time. 1

I saw a burgundy jacket that she planned to wear with it and realised she planned to travel in style.

Her sense of fashion had improved in a short period. Why wouldn't it be so when Linda was her best friend? They were inseparable, and Susan had somehow joined the mix. It was amazing to see how women paired up, even among friends.

Honestly, I do not care about the AgK32, we did good without it in Brentwood, and I am sure Sylvester would have tons of Nitric Acid in the north. We cannot allow Erik to feel irreplaceable. He has to dress like a woman to join us. That way, I will pass him as one of my maids. He wont be noticed. He would fit in with the
