The Dark Side Of Fate

Chapter 176

Novel {Book 2} Chapter 15 – ~Leo~

I haven’t woken up feeling giddy in a long time. I did this morning, and I liked it.

Amelia was still asleep, and she looked peaceful.

I touched her hair gently, careful not to disturb her sleep.

I noticed the roots of her hair were platinum blonde, so I planned on talking to her about it later.

It looked like she dyed her hair brown. I wouldn’t put it past her. It was cute, and it made me chuckle.

I snuck out of bed and out of her room.

Stepping out, I saw Max on my couch, drinking coffee.

He looked at me and smiled, but the smile did not touch his eyes. He was still processing his loss, and I knew it would take a while before he could recover from the pain.

“Good morning, Alpha. Glad to see you are finally letting up,” he said, and I smiled at him.

“Did you sleep well?” I asked him, and he rolled his eyes.

“Between my heartache and the sounds of your activity in that room, you could just imagine how well I slept,” He said and chuckled.

I knew Amelia and I were a bit loud, but it was my house, so he had to manage.

“Goddess Leo, you did not spare that woman,” He said, and I told him to mind his business.

“I got the mail,” he told me, and I frowned at him.

“Sylvester approved the hearing of my case for this week. Thank you, Leo. I know you had to pull some strings,” he said, sounding very grateful, and I nodded.

“Besides, we are going to the eastern alpha meeting this morning. I have called everyone,” I told him, and he did not look too enthusiastic.

“Those Alphas are wimps. The guy will scare them into agreeing with his conduct. They wouldn’t want him to come for their packs. As things are now, he can go for any pack, and there is no law stopping him from doing it,” Max said, and I knew he was right.

It was also one of the reasons why I wanted to meet with Alexie. I needed to read him and decipher his intentions in the east.

It isn’t every time a northern Alpha comes to the east, marries a woman, and takes over her family’s pack by force.

He must have a goal, and I need to know what it was so we do not have issues in the future.

The alphas might think it is Max’s problem now, but I could see ahead, and it did not look good for us.

I went into my room to prepare for the day, so I could head to the meeting.

I opened my closet, and Tamia’s clothes were still in them. I hadn’t been able to give them away. I had paced them in boxes and would have sent them to her, but I couldn’t.
