Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 119

Our little love session in the office helped me gain some focus.

When Tamia linked me about being stressed, I did not think twice about it.

We had spent the past three days working and doing a lot of mental work.

I had not been able to spend time with my mate, hold her hands, have a picnic and make love to her under the stars like I once did.

I did not even have time to stay in bed with her.

We were dealing with one stress and then another.

The traitors and the spies.

It was all too much.

What we did in the office was spontaneous and worth it.

I had almost forgotten how to live.

I felt like I was drowning in all the issues surrounding me.

My little time with my mate in the office pulled me back up.

Everything was crazy.

I had to open my doors to two unlikely people in the name of trying to establish peace, and as things were, I would have to open my door to more.

It was hard, but I had to do it.

Leo was Tamia’s ex, yet he was staying at the estate, not to talk of Devin, who wasn’t only Tamia’s former fated but the very guy that almost made the north start a war.

He killed my father due to the intel he got from my mother, laid claim on the lordship, attacked my home and tried to take my mate from me.

Yet he was in my lounge drinking scotch and making plans as if nothing had happened.

The thought of it alone made me laugh at life.

Sometimes taking things too seriously was wrong and stupid because we did not know where the road would lead us.

Sitting in the lounge and planning the massive arrest was tedious.

We had to find a way to ensure we did it at once so that none of the people on our list escaped.

The names that we had were surprising.

The ones that hurt me the most were the council members on the list.

Hearing that Jenny teamed up with some people to kill her brother made me commend my mother for finishing the woman.

She had no ounce of loyalty in her.

I could see why my father never committed to her and felt the need to punish her sometimes.

She was the type to be kept on a leash, or she would bite.

She was good riddance, but she had caused a lot of damage.

One of the damages Jenny had caused was what I would have to fix soon; my brother David.

She had told the guy that I was hunting him.

She had lied to him and made me seem like a monster, and then she sent him money.

Then I heard they were trying to recruit him.

I thought he was the king until I got that information and realised he was a victim too.

While I sat in that lounge to plan the arrest, I was tense.

My nerves were all over the place.

I was afraid.

As much as I tried to hide it, I was worried.

I was going to blatantly violate the rights of the people on the list.

I knew I had to be the villain for the greater good.
