Shadows of Destiny

An Agreement ~Sylvester~ After telling my friends and brother what I was planning on doing, I was relaxed, knowing that I had their full support.

All I needed to do now was wait for Leo and Devin to arrive so we could get them on board and spring to action.

” I hope you know there will be no going back once we do this,” Marcel said, telling me the implications of my plan, and I nodded.

I was done being nice.

“It also means after we arrest everyone mentioned, we will support you and install you as King,” Theodore said, and I nodded.

“You will need Devin and Leo’s support for it.

I know Albert might not disagree, but Corrigan is something else.

You took his fated,” Theodore said, and I knew he had a point.

“There is no harm in trying.

This is the only way we can quiet the noise,” I told them, and they nodded.

Dominic was just smiling.

“So the three of us get to be lords while you will be king.” He said, and I nodded.

“I like it,” My brother said, happy that it had come to this.

“Moreover, it would make it difficult for them to use the council to work against us,” Marcel said.

“So what will you do once you have been made king?” Theodore asked me, and I shrugged.

“Dare the usurper to come at me and stop lurking in the shadows,” I said, knowing that would be all that would be left to do because I would have all the power in an autocratic system.

All the stealing of seals and trying to make people hate me will no longer count.

Whoever the Kingman was would be backed into the wall and have no choice but to be silent or come out.

Tamia had given me the nerve I needed to go dark, and that was what I would do.

We studied all the names of the people that we had that were affiliated with the group.

After talking to Devin and Leo, we would know how to mobilise and get them.

It had to be done at the same time on the same day.

I planned to round them up and then wait for the council to summon me, which I would use that day to overthrow their system and crown myself King, reverting us to the old order.

I knew it would not be well received, but after locking many people up, no one on the council would be able to go against me.

I was ready to destroy anyone that stood in my way.

I had a goal and planned to achieve it at all costs.

My blue moon night will be romantic and peaceful; I will claim my mate, and we will rest.

Our pup would be born in a peaceful world, and we will live happily ever after.

I do not care how many traitors I would have to kill to get to that goal, but lasting peace was the ultimate goal for me.

Two hours later, I heard that Leo and Devin had arrived.

I also heard that Leo had come with a prisoner and was requesting that the person be locked up in a cell, and I wondered who it might be.

I went to join them in the guest lounge at Marcel’s wing.

The moment I entered, I was shocked at what I saw.

Leo and Devin stood to pay their respects.

We exchanged handshakes, and I asked Theodore to supervise the kappas that would bring Liam to where we were.

There was nothing better than hearing directly from the source.

Amanda sat on the couch quietly with a silver bracelet on her wrist.

“What is she doing here?” I asked Leo, and the rage in his eyes said it all.

I could not blame him for it.

The woman had allowed herself to be used in the worst way possible.
