Shadows of Destiny

Who Did It ~Sylvester~ I wondered what got into Glenda that made her feel it was okay to talk to my mate the way she did.

I watched tears stream down her cheeks after Avery slapped her, and I wished Avery would give her another.

2 This was supposed to be a fun dinner for us, and she had tried to ruin it with talks of Susan.

Honestly, it had nothing to do with the mate bond; I was done with Susan when I laid eyes on Tamia.

I have never been so happy and fulfilled in my life until now.

I was in love with a woman that loved me just as fiercely as I loved her.

We were expecting.

What more could I ask for? If Glenda truly cared for Susan, she should have advised her to move on.

I knew Susan did not return because she missed or wanted me.

She came because her uncle had something to do in the north.

Even if I wasn’t with Tamia, I would have rejected her.

She was nothing but pride and ego when she walked into that ballroom.

2 To her, it was her right.

She expected me to dump whoever I was with because she had arrived.

It wasn’t that she loved me.

It was her ego and her need to be with the most important man.

That was all.

It was the same thing that kept Glenda with Dominic.

That same drive made Susan try to come for me.

Susan looked at Tamia scornfully with little respect, meaning her intention was malicious and wrong.

Although Knight fell for it, I had to be grateful for the strength to snap myself out of the trance.

Every longing I felt about our past.

together had disappeared, and I felt absolutely nothing towards her.

Suppose she was in pain; that was her problem and not mine.

I had moved on.

Come the blue moon, Tamia will be mine fully.

Glenda stood up, and I thought she was going to leave us as I had instructed, but instead, she bared her neck to Tamia and 1.

“Forgive my stupidity, Alpha and Luna,” She said, and I knew Dominic had warned her.

It did not matter; I did not care for her shit.

I looked at my big brother, and his eyes pleaded with me.

Tamia touched my thigh gently and squeezed, indicating it was okay, and I let it be.

“Do not mention your cousin’s name or speak to my mate disrespectfully again.

The next time you do, Luna Avery’s palm will be the least of your troubles,” I said, adding Avery’s title so she would know none of the women at the table was at her level.

I prayed my brother would dump her arse because I believed she wasn’t good for him.

We talked about sports and what we would do tomorrow.

Tamia’s Croquet match was before ours.

We had made them place the match in the morning before the sun was high in the sky so our mates won’t be exhausted.
