The Dark Side Of Fate

~Tamia~

I lay amid beautiful flowers, and the sky was a brilliant shade of blue and purple. I knew I was in dreamland. I wore a flowing white dress, and I was pleased.

I was in a lavender and jasmine flower field, and I wasn't alone. I looked ahead, and Sylvester was sitting on the green grass with his back to me.

I went to where he was and hugged him from behind, but then the clouds became dark, and the plants died. Heavy rain began to fall, and suddenly he was over a cliff, and I was holding his hand, trying to pull me up.

"Don’t let me go," he said with fear in his eyes, and they went dark.

"I can't,” I said and woke up panting

I looked at the window. The sun was yet to come up, but it was four in the morning.

Sylvester was sleeping peacefully beside me, and I realised I had had a bad dream. Vivid dreams were part of the listed pregnancy symptoms, so I rubbed my belly and smiled.

Sylvester and I had crossed the biggest hurdle that could pull us apart, and we had survived. I knew nothing could come between us. My mind was just replaying an old fear.

I kissed his cheek, and a strong need to sink my teeth into his sweet spot came over me as his Cedar scent engulfed me. I felt an overwhelming need to strengthen the bond between us. I felt the cord joining us, and it felt stronger than it did yesterday.

Sylvester pulled me close, and I let him. I drifted back to sleep in his arms.

He woke me up in the morning.

I opened my eyes, and Sylvester was leaning over me with a broad smile.

"Good morning, darling,” He said and kissed the tip of my nose.

I pulled him close until he was resting on me.

He moved down and placed his head on my bosom while I stroked his hair gently.

He touched my lower belly and rubbed gently. His hand felt so good against my skin that I moaned. Then he reached between my legs with his hand, and I gave him access. I felt his index finger rub my clit gently, and he rested on me while he did it.

It felt good. I stroked his head hair while he pleasured my clit.

He licked his finger and placed it back on my clit, building the pleasure. This was the best way to wake anyone up.

I moaned, and I heard him growl.

"Sylvester... Ahhhhahhha,” I moaned gently, and he was pleased.

I felt the pleasure building until I came.

He slid his finger down my slit into my pussy, but there was no way it would fill me up the way I wanted.

"Sylvester, I need you to fill me up,” I moaned, feeling like I was out of this world.

"You have to be a little more specific, Tamia,” He told me, and I moaned as he caressed my entrance with his thumb.

I had no shame at this point as his cedar scent filled me taking control of my senses. All I wanted to do was mate with him.

"Fill me up with your cock," I said, and he growled with approval.

He leaned over me, placed his hard length into me, and began pumping. Kaira took over from me, and he pumped sweetly.

I felt the pleasure building up in me when I looked at him and said

"Mate", climaxing along with the word.

I felt an out-of-body experience while my teeth elongated, wanting to claim my man. His eyes were dark too, and his teeth were out. A serious turn-on for me, and he fucked me through my orgasm.

I came twice before he spilt into me with Knight saying Kaira's exact words.

"Mate".

He fell on me and kissed me.

"I do not know why but I have been feeling the need to claim you since the night I rejected Susan,” He confessed, and the feeling was the same.

"I have battled it, but I know I will lose the battle soon because it is overwhelming," he said as I stroked his hair.

"Should we try it?" I asked, and he rolled off me and looked at me from the side.

"It will be an ugly scar if we do not do it on the blue moon,” he said, and I was quiet, not wanting to push.

"Come on, let us shower. Your game is by eleven this morning. I noticed you are pairing up with Katya while Avery is pairing up with Linda," he said, and I nodded.

We did not want to play one-on-one, so we chose to play the double team. I just hope we would score fourteen points and win. I would not want to try another sport.

Sylvester led me to the bathroom, and after we brushed our teeth, we went into the shower.

He kissed the side of my neck while standing behind me, gently squeezed my upper arm on both sides and breathed me in.

"I swear your pussy feels so damn good, Tamia. Thinking of it just made me want to bury myself in you. I am addicted to you." He confessed, and his words gave me tingles.

I did not know he was serious until he hoisted me against the bathroom wall and took me again. When we finished, we exited the shower to get dressed for the day.

"Your game against The Eastern Beasts is this evening; how do Theo and Marcel feel about it?" I asked him as we dressed up.

"Excited, but they hope they beat them quickly so they would have no choice but to play Rugby next week and then get to pounce on them and beat them some more." He said, and I laughed. "How will you do the rugby team? It wasn't part of your preparations,” I asked, wondering how they would come up with a last-minute team, and he laughed.

"Who said we would do that? Theo already spoke to the Northern Bulls, so we will just replace three members in the actual game; they know our intentions, and they plan to humour us,” he said, and I laughed, amazed at how determined they were to have fun with Kyle and Max.

"Before I forget, do you know much about Ramsey Richford?" He asked, and I hated that name because he was the one who forced his daughter into our home.

"Other than the fact that he was the douchebag alpha that threatened to go to war with Leo if he did not accept Amanda, I know nothing serious,” I said, and he nodded.

"Why did you ask?" I asked him, and he sighed.

"He was linked to the attack that caused me to attack the east,” he said, and I gasped.

"That bastard,” I said in anger.

"We are investigating him. Does he have any other daughter or a sister?" He asked, and I frowned. "None, He has a niece that lives with him, but Amanda is the only princess in his castle,” I said, and he nodded.

"I want you to be a part of this investigation, and it also means you will interact with Leo. Do you think you can do that?" He asked me, and I searched his eyes to see if he was serious or if it was a test.

"I trust you, Tamia. Leo can't take you from me. You are mine,” he said confidently, and his wolf flashed. I nodded, accepting the task, and he thanked me.

I wore white pants and a black polo t-shirt with Sylvester's family name and crest on the back and Northern Beasts on the front. Same as Sylvester's polo team. The back read Volkov instead of Albert or Riverstorm because I already saw myself as a Volkov.

I packed my hair in a ponytail and wore a black face cap with the Volkov family crest. Then I hooked my gloves to my pants. I would use it to hold the croquet mallet when the time comes. I hoped they gave us mallets with square ends and not round ends. I wore white sneakers to finish the look. Sylvester dressed the same way; only he wore white-fitted trousers. He wore sneakers. He would wear his boots when the time came for the game. We looked good together, and we went downstairs to have breakfast and go.

Avery looked exquisite. Her shirt had Sidorov on the back with their family crest, while Linda had Orlov on the back with the family crest. We were given Royal bands the previous day, so we wore them on our wrists.

We ate quickly and left in a hurry.

We arrived there and took the cart to the croquet garden.

Katya was already there in her uniform, and she looked good. She rushed to hug me when she saw me, and I wrapped my arms around her. Lily was there, too. I wasn't bothered because she was serving a purpose.

I did not look at her, but Linda interacted with her to avert suspicion, if any.

It was time for the game to start.

"This morning, The Northern Beasts team, consisting of Lady Tamia Volkov and her teammate Katya Nowak will be starting the game, playing against Western Butterflies Luna Ashley McCain and Luna Alexandria Russel, first to make fourteen points win.

The northern Beasts control the Blue and black balls, while The Western Butterflies have the Red and Yellow Balls. The Northern Beasts would go first,” The commentator said, and people cheered.

I looked at the booth where Sylvester was sitting. Stephanie and Dominic were there, and they all waved at me.

The game was easy as Katya and I could pass the balls through the six hoops in the right order and hit the central peg, and we won.

Two matches were played before Linda and Avery's team. They won too, and we were excited.

We went to join Sylvester, and I asked the very reluctant Katya to join me. Sylvester hugged me when I joined him, and Katya greeted everyone politely.

"Where are you from, young Lady?" Stephanie asked her, and she was shy.

"She is in Marcel's Harem," I said, and Stephanie looked at me.

"How come I have never seen her?" Dominic said, and I laughed.

"She is a bookworm, and she is in her room most of the time except the few times we socialise in the garden,” I said and smiled at her.

There was a look of approval in Stephanie's eyes, and she was made to sit with us.

I wondered where Glenda was, but I did not ask. I believed her absence was for the best.

We sat to watch the other games. Sylvester's polo match would not start until the evening, so we had a lot of time on our hands.

There was a comfortable booth reserved for us at every sports section, and looking at the contents of the booth that we were in, Sylvester made sure it was equipped with food.

"Luna, someone just made contact with me," I heard Lily's voice in my head, and I was alert.

"Do you know who the person is?" I asked, and she wasted a bit before answering me.

"Luna Gezel of Grizlo," She said, and I wondered who the fuck that was.

"What does she want?" I asked her.

"The usual stamps, and she wants me to place a tracker on Lord Volkov's phone. She said something about us moving quickly so we could rescue Sofia Malek. I think they are planning an attack,” She said, and I did not know what to say.

"Continue what you are doing. We will discuss extensively after.” I linked her, and she was silent.

I linked Sylvester with what Lily told me; he was a little worried.

I did not know why and could not wait until we got home, so I asked him to link me with the reason. "Luna Gezel is a Sidorov," he said, and I knew the implication of the Sidorov family being tied to treason. It would be bad for Marcel. We needed to deal with it quietly if it was true.

"I am sure it is a set-up,” I linked Sylvester, and he rubbed my back.

"We will deal with it when we get home. We have to act normal and not tell our friends yet. I want to speak to Marcel about it before we proceed," he said. I obeyed and remained silent.

We spent the day watching sports, eating and having fun. I did not see anyone I knew. Not Devin, Not Leo or the men that Theo and Marcel were planning on dealing with. Yet I knew they were around. I knew I would see them when the time of the game came. I brushed off what I had learned about Gezel and focused on the match that was to come.

Soon it was time for the Northern Beasts to face the Eastern Beasts. It was a match to watch.
