Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 73

In A Trance ~Tamia~ Planning the ball for the games became a bit challenging after what Sylvester told me.

As time drew near, I became a nervous wreck.

I tried to hide it, but I couldn’t.

Sylvester would often figure it out, and I will pretend to snap out of it.

I was afraid that Susan would take him from me.

She was his first, and he never had closure; what if his heart remembers her? I tried to be calm, but I couldn’t.

Stephanie was a bit worried; she somehow knew Sylvester had told me about the guests coming.

Four days before the event, I couldn’t hide my fear anymore.

I sat on the chair in the hall, going through the table arrangement, and I looked like a wreck.

The eastern alphas and Devin had turned down the ball for reasons best known to them.

1 Linda wasn’t happy about it, but since they were going to play polo too, she would still have her day.

My heart was so troubled that I felt sick and had to vomit.

I returned to sit down, and Stephanie came to speak to me.

“My dear, you need to have faith in him,” She said, knowing what troubled my soul.

I did not share the news with Avery and Linda, so they did not worry for me, but I was dying inside.

“What if he wants her back?” I said, tears almost streaming down my face, and Stephane pulled me in and held me.

“I won’t allow it,” she said, and I knew she had no power in that regard.

Sylvester was lord.

Was he going to make me share? What would I do? I was a mess.

“Have some tea and retire to bed.

Lacy and I will handle the rest.

Please try and sleep,” Stephanie said, and I was too much of a mess to argue with her.

I got up and left the hall.

I returned to my room, and Sylvester was there on his computer.

I did not speak to him.

I just walked to the bathroom to freshen up.

I stood under the shower for minutes, deep in thought.

“We should be strong, Tamia.

We should be ready,” Kaira said, and I did not know how to feel about it.

I never imagined that Susan would return, and I did not know what to do now that it was in four days.

“What if she decided to see him before the ball? Most of the participants are already arriving, Tamia.

It can happen anytime,” Kaira said, and I covered my mouth to cry.

1 I heard Sylvester enter the bathroom, and I shook from the sound of his entrance which snapped me out of my thoughts.

I stopped crying immediately.

He got into the shower with me and held me from behind.

He kissed my shoulder, turned me around, and then turned off the water.

“Look at me, Tamia,” He said gently, and I did not want to look up because he would know I was crying, and I wanted to be strong.

“Please look at me,” He said, lifting my chin up.

I looked at him.

“Please do not doubt my love.

This should not bother you.

She isn’t even my fated, Tamia, and you are a wreck.
