~Sylvester~

I heard my mother enter our room, and I wondered what she wanted with Tamia; I was still battling with my cufflink, so I remained. I didn’t interrupt her.

My mother’s words touched my heart. I knew Susan had been trying to reach me since she arrived but I ignored her.

Glenda had come to see me in the office twice, and by the third time, I had banned her from my wing.

The woman was obnoxious hence why Dominic still found it hard to commit to her fully.

I was sure that if Dominic met someone like Tamia, he would change.

I had to ask her how she would feel if I tried to turn Dominic away from her, and she got the message.

I thought it was stupid of her to try to get me to see Susan knowing that I was mated to Tamia.

I was glad that my mother took the initiative.

I exited the closet when my mother left and saw Tamia.

She looked breathtaking. If the event wasn’t important, I would have peeled off her clothes and taken her on the spot.

Her tummy was flat, and I wished her bump was showing like Linda’s just so Leo would know to keep off.

I trusted my woman and knew she would only have eyes for me.

I also took comfort in the fact that Devin would not be attending the event.

I did not know his reasons, but Marcel had put someone to watch him, just in case he was up to no good.

I still could not forget that he believed he should be lord because he killed my father.

Inviting Devin without my consent was going to cost Joan and Pamela. I just needed the games to be over before I made my move.

We arrived at the ballroom and everyone stared at us.

I heard the whispers, and I ignored them.

It was mainly envious folks. They made it sound like I took someone’s wife and made Tamia seem like she was a social climber.

I was glad Tamia wasn’t listening or maybe she heard and just chose to ignore it. Either way, her mood wasn’t affected.

I did not miss the multiple lustful eyes that looked at Tamia; I had to growl to make them stop, but there were people that couldn’t help it. My mate and soon-to-be wife had that effect. She was captivating.
