Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 93

Finding Some Light ~Sylvester~ The hearing had gone better than I had hoped.

Tamia and her friends have come through.

They were indeed ruthless.

Seeing how far they went made me realise that the only power their previous mates had over them was the marks they bore to force their loyalty.

I made a mental note never to cross my mate.

After asking Joan and Pamela to resign, they got off their seats to beg.

They begged so much that Larry and the rest of the council pleaded on their behalf.

“We didn’t see it that way, your eminence.

We were trying to unite all regions, and since Corrigan honoured the invite, we thought we had ended the feud,” Pamela said in tears.

Tamia responded with rage in her voice.

“Liar!!!!” she screamed at her.

I wondered where the anger was coming from.

It was clear Tamia had severe issues with these women.

“Lady Volkov was there when you taunted me, boasting it might not last.

You deliberately withheld the guest list, knowing we would find out.

Stop lying and own up to your mistakes!” Tamia warned her, and Vino had to bang the gavel even though I could see he did not want to.

“Until you are wedded, you still cannot speak in this council,” Vino said with pleading eyes, and I knew he was right.

I could not wait for the wedding to be done.

If they push too much, I might as well claim Tamia before the blue moon, since the goddess has already blessed our union, and leave the Blue moon night to Marcel and Theodore.

“I am sorry, Luna Tamia,” Pamela said and went on her knees.

Pamela wasn’t a fool.

She knew she had gambled and lost, and she knew Tamia would be the Lady of the north.

It was the wisest option for her right now.

“I am begging you to not see it in that light.

A lot was happening with this petition, so we could not compile the list quickly.

I swear on my wolf, Joan, and I did not try to work against your union.

Please, Lady Tamia, please believe us.

The seat is all we have and the only honour our family has.

We are the only women in the council.

If we vacate, they will be occupied by men.

Please, lady Tamia.

We promise never to antagonise or disrespect you again.

Please show us mercy,” Pamela begged, and Joan joined in.

They had successfully put Tamia on the spot.

Her decision would shape the way people would look at her henceforth.

It would be the beginning of her northern reputation as Lady.

Pamela and Joan were brilliant.

They knew people would not accept a Lady that isn’t merciful and forgiving, and I knew my mate wasn’t any of those things.

“What do you want to do?” I linked Tamia, and she did not respond.

Instead, she squeezed my hand for all to see.

She squeezed it in a pleading manner.

Tamia was just as innovative as these women were.

She knew what they were doing, and she had outsmarted them.

Her actions showed she was pleading on their behalf, and ordinary citizens and the press were there to see it.
