The Dark Side Of Fate

Chapter 70

~Sylvester~

Tamia walked into the room tired. I was at my desk working on my computer.

Someone had sent money to a Bricks Liam in Gad, and I was on it.

It was an anonymous transfer, but the receiver had slipped off.

Instead of using a number as an ID to collect the money, he gave his Id and name.

This was the first slip-up since I started tracing the transactions.

Was it possible that Lily was the one helping these people hide their tracks because this was an idiotic move?

If that was it, I would make sure the bitch suffered most excruciatingly. The truth about Lily was she wasn’t a trophy, as everyone believed. Her father sent her to the estate the year we had decided we would no longer keep a harem.

He wanted her to be my mistress and bear me children, but I felt it was wrong and saw her more like a younger sister. I did not know it would get to her and make her act stupid. I was angry.

The only reason I let her stay was that her father was my father’s friend, and they agreed that she would live on the estate.

I had abolished the laws of the lord and alphas keeping harems, but some people still wanted it in place. Bearing a bastard for the top six families would guarantee an elite life for such people and their families. Hence, everyone wanted it, and the elites would rather their daughters be mistresses than marry into lesser families.

It was a sick tradition that people still tried to keep even though I had abolished it. I banned alphas, betas and gammas from sending their daughters to my estate three years ago, and I have maintained it since then.

“Are you alright?” Tamia said, bending and hugging me from behind. She kissed my cheek, and I grabbed her and placed her on my lap to kiss her properly.

I drank her in, kissing her and taking in her scent until she moaned for me and broke away from the kiss, getting up. She went to sit on the bed, and I watched her move.

“I am so tired,” she said, arching her back and moving so she could crack her spine for relief. She turned her neck, too, for the same reason, and I laughed.

“That is why there is a planner. So you do not have to stress yourself, my lady, but you always choose to. I can’t stop you because I did not want to argue with you,” I said, and she laughed at me.

“I think I would soak in the bath,” She said, and I nodded.

She stripped as she walked toward the bathroom and moved seductively, making Knight growl and lust for her.

“Tamia,” I growled, and she giggled, knowing exactly what she was doing. I closed my laptop and decided to join her in the bath.

It had been two days since we made love, and I would not let her get away from me tonight.

I waited a bit, then took off my clothes and went to join her in the bathroom. She sat in the tub and looked at me, smiling.

“Did you miss me?” She asked, knowing exactly what was on my mind, and Knight growled in response.

I got into the bath with her, and she moved to me and kissed me. She broke the kiss and put foam at the tip of my nose, laughing.

She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. Her eyes captivated me, and her laughter was enthralling.

She had brought me to my knees entirely before I knew it. She was easy to love and be with.

No tension and no stress.

She wasn’t a social climber. Her love and affection were true.

What did I do to be this lucky? I looked at her innocent eyes and drew her close to me.

“My Tamia,” I said, and she stopped laughing. Her eyes flashed golden, and I knew it was jealous Kaira.

“I love you too, Kaira; you two are the same,” I said, and she giggled.

I pulled her close and kissed her lips. We kissed deeply and had to break to catch our breaths. So I rested my forehead against hers.

“It will always be like this. My love will never die, and it will never weaken. It will always be strong, Tamia. I will never allow you to regret this. I am nothing like my father. You will never have to share, and you will never have to deal with shit. I will be true all my life, worship and cherish you until I die. You have nothing to worry about where I am concerned, my love.” I said, and tears streamed down her eyes.

“I know, Sylvester. I know. I want you to know that for me, it is the same. This is my family. You are my family. You and our baby, and it will always be like that. My past is behind me and forgotten; it can never compete with what we have. Know that and trust me, Sylvester,” She said, and from how she

said it, I knew something was troubling her, but I did not want to spoil the moment and ask what it was because I knew she was speaking her truth.

She kissed me and soon came over to me in the bath. I let her.

My body was ready and eager to please her and receive the love she was willing to give. She came over to me, and I grabbed her waist and guided my length into her. Her warmth engulfed me with peace and pleasure as she rode me.

It felt so fucking good that I did not want it to stop. I held on to my cum, wanting her to ride her fill.

Tamia rode me, and I enjoyed every bit of it. She was my haven, and I was grateful. The pleasure got into my head, and I moaned.

“Fuck!” I said, trying to hold on to my cum. My toes were curling, and the pleasure was at its peak. I felt her pussy clench as she grabbed onto me tightly.

“Sylvester,” she called my name, and all I could do was growl as she came and milked my cock.

Soon I could not hold it anymore. Her pussy was too warm, soft and sensitive for me to hold out on her for long.

I spilt my seed into her, feeling my toes curl in the bath. She rode me until I went soft.

I held her for a bit in the bath and kissed the side of her neck.

“We have seven more weeks to go, and you will be mine. We will be connected as one,” I said, and she held me tight.

I knew something was troubling her, and I could not keep it anymore. So I broke the hug so I could see her face. I searched her worried green eyes, and she searched mine.

“Tell me,” I said, and her tears began to fall freely.

“Oh, Sylvester. The council wants to break us up. They invited our exes for the games,” She said, and I froze.

I was pissed off.

Pissed off because I knew Leo and Max were not over their mates. I can’t say the same for the sick bastard, Kyle, but Max had tried to take Avery from the estate, and Leo has been on the fence even though he claimed he had given her to me. I could not forget the fact that she gave herself up, and he would have rather died than let her go.

Everyone knew how those men felt about our women. The only person whose intentions weren’t clear was sick Kyle.

I knew Leo still loved Tamia. Why will they do this? I could understand Tamia’s fear, and I held her.

“It’s okay, my love. They can’t break us. In fact, it is good they see the three of you have moved on, so they can move on too. I know I am the only one in your heart now, Tamia. You have nothing to worry about. I can’t be jealous of Leonardo Albert because I have you. Do not worry about what that evil council is doing.” I said to ease her mind, and she held on tightly.

“Once we solve the mutiny case, they will be dealt with accordingly, I promise,” I said, and she squeezed tightly.

“She said scary things like our marriage and union not being set in stone. She said you could change your mind,” Tamia said. Usually, I knew this wouldn’t faze her, but her hormones were all over the place, making her extra sensitive. Most people did not know she was pregnant with my child yet.

“Who said this?” I asked so I would know who to discipline.

“Pamela Rivers,” She said, and I cursed under my breath.

“That social climbing bitch. She tried to send her daughter to join the Harem three years ago, but we turned it down. She had been bitter ever since. She is just jealous of you, Tamia. She can’t win, and I know you know this, so cheer up and stop letting your fear get the best of you.” I said, and she broke the hug and looked at me.

We left the bath, dried up and went to bed naked.

I lay down, and Tamia placed her head against my chest. I needed to ease her mind and change the topic.

“Guess what?” I asked her, and she pinched me in response, which made me flinch, and we both laughed.

“The money transfers finally turned up a name at the receiving end,” I said, and she sat up abruptly and looked surprised and overjoyed at the same time.

“A break!” she said, and I nodded, laughing and sat up.

Tamia was overjoyed.

“Finally, we have a trail,” She said, relieved for the same reason.

“I think Lilly has been helping them hide their tracks since, but not anymore,” I told her, and Tamia nodded.

“I suspected that might be it, but I had no proof. That bitch.” She said, and I laughed.

“I will have him arrested tomorrow,” I said, and she stopped laughing and shook her head.

“You can’t do that. Put someone on him and have him watched. He might lead us to someone and blow this thing open wider. They do not know their moles have been caught. No one knows what happened to Lilly and her handler. We will keep it that way and keep letting them slip up. There will be more activities during the game because Lily had told them security would be low then. That is when we’ll strike, and I am thinking of using Lilly to get them,” She told me, and I could understand her angle. I agreed with everything she said except for using the treacherous bitch to trap the people.

“I do not trust Lilly to have her do our bidding,” I said, and Tamia nodded.

“I know she is selfish, and that is exactly what we will use against her. Right now, her life is forfeit because she committed treason. We will offer her lesser punishment if she can help us catch some of them. She will throw them under the bus to save her skin. The woman is selfish like that. She does not believe in their cause. She only did what she did out of scorn. Her conviction is different from theirs. That is why we will use her.” She explained, and I could see her point.

“What about Sofia, her handler?” I asked, and Tamia shook her head.

“She will be challenging to use. We will keep her locked up, and soon word will get out that she has been apprehended. So the uprising group, whatever they call themselves, will have no choice but to work with Lilly directly.” Tamia said, and I understood what she was planning on doing.

“I think we can work on that,” I said, and she nodded. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Tamia’s eyes looked sleepy, so I made her lie down.

She placed her head back on my chest, and soon I heard her snoring. She was exhausted. I thought of what she said about Pamela, and I decided it was time to clip the wings of the council. They had done too much damage.
