The Dark Side Of Fate By Karima Sa’ad Usman 81 A Promise Kept

~Leo~

After Devin explained everything, we devised a plan to get the Inkabod Semenov guy.

I hated that we might have to include Amelia with us. I did not want to expose her to fight, but it was necessary.

We could not subdue that guy without the three of them.

Alexei would have been a nice addition, but I did not want him away from Hill Valley yet. He is the only reason this Inkabod bastard had not advanced.

I bet he knows he won’t win a one-on-one with Alexei, so Clay and Amelia would be our best bet. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

We were all in my office except for Devin, who must be tumbling in the sheets with his woman.

I wondered what our women would do to Alice, but one thing I knew was that there was a possibility that Alice would not survive it.

She had caused too much damage to get away with what she did.

It was very sad.

Her father was Devin’s father’s beta, and they were supposed to be loyal to him. She had tainted their name with her action, and to think her cause wasn’t noble was bad. I wondered if her parents instilled their values in her or if she just chose to go wrong.

“So when do we move to catch this Inkabod guy?” Clay asked.

“It has to be soon. If Alice was packing her bags, she planned to join him at the address she gave Devin. If she doesn’t show up when she should, he would know,” Sylvester said, and I understood what he meant.

“Then we better link the ladies to take it easy on her,” David said, and I wondered why.

“If that bitch has to meet us with Semenov, then we have to make that meeting happen and then grab him from there.

How do we know it isn’t a set-up?

He might be using her and decided to discard her because I do not see any serious-minded man settling down with that girl. She isn’t trustworthy, and a traitor would always be a traitor,” he explained, and I understood his angle.

“I am with David on this. We need her to show up at that venue with her luggage; then we will grab him if it is a rendezvous,” Vino said. I knew he was right, but I refused to commend him. I had forgiven the guy seeing he was trying everything to redeem himself, but I would extend a handshake when the right time came.

“How do we stop our mates from ripping her apart? They have been bored, so I am sure they would go overboard. Especially Linda. The Inkabod guy took her land, and she fought for that land for sentimental reasons,” Theodore said, and I saw Kyle bow his head.

“It isn’t your fault, Kyle. You did the right thing for your people. There is no shame in what you did. Just look at Micheal. If he had done what you did, all those people would be alive, and they might have gotten a fighting chance,” Theodore told him.

I was glad the words came from Theodore because I knew fleeing his land made Kyle feel less of a man. He might have been a horrible mate and husband, but he was a wonderful alpha and friend.

We all wished there were things we could do differently, and even though he still loved Linda, he had blown his chances with her even before she was taken to the north. I was glad he had accepted it and hoped he would move on too.

“Let’s all link our mates to take it easy on her so we can use her as bait,” Sylvester said, and David raised his hands as if we were in a classroom which made all of us laugh.

Sylvester nodded at him, laughing.

“Go ahead,” Sylvester said, and David nodded with a smile, knowing what he did was funny.

“What do we do about Sue? Devin isn’t here?” He said, and we all knew Susan was the one that Alice hurt the most.

“Amelia would talk to her about it. I am sure she would take it easy on her,” I said, and David shooked his head.

“Those blue eyes looked very vindictive, Leo,” he said, and Sylvester laughed.

“It is true,” he said, and I opted to link Amelia immediately.

“Darling, please, no one should hurt Alice. Allow her to heal because we plan on using her as bait to catch her boyfriend,” I said, rushing through the words fast.

There was silence at first, and then she replied.

“Okay, she is stable now,” Amelia said, and I frowned.

“What do you mean by stable?” I asked her.

“She.. eh.. sort of … eh… passed out, and Claudia had to revive her. She passed out on Linda, but I will tell them what you have said,” she said, and I was glad that we linked them quickly because it would have been a disaster.

“Any luck?” Sylvester asked me, and I nodded. I wondered why I was the only one that linked my mate when they could all do it too.

“Good, let’s plan how we would catch Inkabod,” Sylvester said.

“Shouldn’t we wait for Devin” Dominic asked, and Marcel shook his head.

“We will brief him when he decides to grace us with his presence,” Marcel replied, and no one argued with that logic. It was understandable.

Casper came to my office immediately after the discussion, and he had a worried look in his eyes. I wondered why he didn’t just link me.

I became scared that something bad had happened.

“What is the matter, Casper?” I asked my beta, and he looked at Sylvester and the others.

“I would have linked you, Alpha, but stopping them from coming to your office took a lot of effort, and I somehow could not access my wolf when I was near them. I led them to your house,” He said, and I frowned at him, wondering who they were.

“Your parents,” He said, and I was shocked. So shocked that my breath caught in my mouth. They had finally come. They kept their promise, but they blocked Casper’s wolf. How did they get that ability?
