Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 0364 "I indirectly asked Tamia to risk her life for Amanda," he said, blinking away his tears.

"I did not see it that way back then, but that was what I did," he said.

"All because she was pregnant, and I thought it was mine. I wasn't ready for it. I took precautions, but she said Black did it, and I had to accept. She played me and tried to kill Tamia and me for her personal goals. I wish Tamia had let me die that day," he said, and I I heard the rage in his voice.

""'She gave herself up because she wanted me to live and Amanda and me to have a happy home without her. She took her chances with you because she wanted out of the mess I created. If I

find that bitch, I will destroy her and her bastards," he said, biting into his fist until blood began to spill. a "Twill destroy everything about her, and it will be as if she had never existed. Both her and her mate," his wolf growled, and I honestly did not want to be in Amanda's shoes right now.

It was personal to Leo.

It was cruel to think they ruined his home because they wanted to take over the north.

They could have carried on their agenda without him.

Their actions were beneficial to me because they brought Tamia into my life, but I felt sorry for Leo and the life he would have had. I had often looked

at him and Tamia, and they did look good together, but she was mine now. I I pulled Leo's fist from his mouth before he crushed his hand.

"You need to be calm and maintain a sharp mind. They won't get away with it. We will hunt them down and destroy them," I told him with promise, and he was speechless. Even with Amanda dead, the damage would still remain.

Their actions had chipped away at his soul.

We arrived at the mansion, and Devin requested to speak to me privately. I wondered what it was about, but I chose to oblige him.

While Leo went to his, Devin and I went to my lounge to discuss.

He seemed unsettled, and I wondered what his issue was.

"After all that I have learned, I need to tell you something," he said, and I was attentive.

"Nikolas Sullivan lived in my territory with his niece Susan who I later learned was your ex. I did not know that Nikolas and his daughter, Glenda were in on this shit," he said, and I frowned at him because I had Glenda in custody. Nikolas was at large, but I knew it was a matter of time before we caught him.

"What I am trying to tell you here is that after seeing what happened to Leo, I do not want to have the same issue," he said, and I still did not get him.

"Susan and I started dating a week ago,

and she is staying in my hotel room. I do not know if she is one of them and is just using me," he said, and I could —— hear the fear in his voice.

It was an epic match, and if all this shit wasn't there, I would have laughed.

I was with his fated, and he was with mine. It was funny.

"Are you two fated now?" I asked him, and he shook his head. I guess the goddess blessed Tamia and me.

"I'do not know what to tell you, Devin, but I will advise you to be careful and keep an eye on her. Now that you are on the council, if her hands are dirty, it would reflect badly on you," I said, and I could see fear and reluctance in his eyes. Susan had that effect; I just hoped she was being real with him.

"One more thing. I do not know if this will help. She did not mean to leave, but Maurice conversed with Nikolas, divulging some things she did not hear.

She walked in on their conversation, and Maurice thought she heard everything he told Nikolas, so he ordered that she be taken away, or he would take her life. Nikolas chose to leave with her. She never moved on until the day you rejected her; she was afraid to come to the north, thinking your mother might be in on it too," he said. I wondered what my father might have discussed with Nikolas to warrant that kind of action. I realised we needed to catch Nikolas too. He was one of the people who escaped because of the tip. If I catch him, I might discover something.
