The Dark Side of Fate

Chapter 289

124 The Rash

~Leo~

After the meeting in Sylvester’s lounge, Erik requested that I follow him to his room to take my blood sample. While I followed him, I wondered how often he would have to take samples from me. I hope not again because I was beginning to feel like cattle in his lab.

I entered his room and was surprised to see the mess of clothes he had everywhere.

His countenance changed, showing some embarrassment.

"Sometimes deciding what to wear isn't easy," he said, gently scratching his head and smiling from embarrassment.

"I see," I said, eyeing the entire place.

"Do you have a mate?" I asked him, knowing he had children. I had meant to ask him because he had been behaving like a bachelor for a while now. He went to his bag and brought out a big purse. I did not need to guess what was in it when he slipped on latex gloves.

"Yuri and I made many silly mistakes when we were younger. We said we wanted to populate the world and so on," he said, laughing at himself.

"Had I known what I know now, I would have settled with Elsa. She left me after she had Erin, and I did not claim her. I do not know where she went. I hoped to find her but have been unsuccessful in that venture.” He said and prepared the bag he would use to take my blood.

"Yuri?" I asked him, sitting on the couch in his room.

"He settled down, but she died. He was negligent and cruel, especially to his sons. Nelson was the bravest of the three of them," he replied.

"So, where is Erin?" I asked him, and he sighed. I could see the conversation was difficult for him, but he seemed forthcoming.

"Somewhere in the West with his mother. He wants nothing to do with me.” Erik said, and I felt sorry for him.

"Maybe, you can try to get your family back together?" I said while he cleaned my arm to set up the IV line.

"I plan on doing that. Once this madness is over, I plan to dedicate my time to finding Elsa and Erin. I hope it won't be too late." He said, and I remembered something Alexei once told me about Erik and Yuri's experiments.

"What about your other children by other women?” I asked, and he looked at me and frowned.

"Ten successful science experiments scattered about the place,” he said, almost laughing at himself.

It was cruel what Yuri did to him. I did not find out until later, so we split up. Yuri had killed the heir because he refused to join up. I knew it was more than that. I knew Yuri did it so he could be the heir. That was why I divided the group. It was the only way to reduce his power.
