Shadows of Destiny

04 Sharing. ~Tamia~

I did not speak to Leo throughout the drive.

Every attempt he made to speak to me was shut down by my silence.

When we arrived home, I went straight to the bedroom.

Our house had four bedrooms.

We chose it so our children would have a room each to themselves, but that wouldn’t be the case now.

I wonder which of the rooms I will be asked to move into when Amanda moves in.

Linda’s words remained on my mind, and just like hers, I knew my bed would be cold soon.

“Tamia, please,” Leo said, following me to the bedroom.

“Please, Tamia,” he pleaded, and I turned to look at him.

“Please, what? Everyone is talking about it, Leo.

You humiliated me at the party.

So what she is your fated.

Did you have to leave my side, get into the balcony and make out with her? Do you know the meaning of self-control?” I asked him, and he bowed his head.

“The feeling was overwhelming,” he said, and I laughed.

“Better go to Whitewood and finish what you started, Leo.

Do not wait for my approval because it will never come.

I will never say it is okay so you can feel good.

In fact, it isn’t okay! It hurts! It feels like a betrayal, and I can never get over it.

So don’t waste your time hoping I will see the light because I won’t.

I am the loser in this.

Not you, not her, not the fucking pack members, just me.

Me and Kaira.” I said, walking into the bathroom to shower.

I stood under it while the water ran, and I was frozen.

I did not know what to do.

Where will I go to? Just like Linda and Avery, I was trapped.

I could not go anywhere without an invite because I was his luna.

I could not dream of finding love.

No one would want to try with me.

I was stuck.

I sat under the water and wept.

I was trying to prepare my mind for the dark days ahead, but I couldn’t.

My heart was too broken, and I was too afraid.

“We will have to try, Tamia,” Kaira, my wolf, said, resigning herself to our fate.

“What if she is mean and evil and wants him and everything to herself?” I asked my wolf.

“Then we will let her have it.

We can’t fight this.

She is higher than us, and she is his fated.

We do not stand a chance.

We just have to hope that she is nice and considerate, or a cold bed would be the least of our problems, Tamia,” my wolf said, and I wept.
