The Dark Side Of Fate

~Amelia~

Telling Linda and Tamia that Leo and I were returning to the east was more challenging than I thought.

Linda actually cried and told me she did not want me to leave. Left to her, we should move in, but Leo was head alpha of the east, so we had to return sometime.

They did not know we were fated. I didn’t tell them; I am sure Leo hasn’t told anyone.

Maybe he didn’t want anyone to know yet, so I let it be our secret, but I could not be away from him for long.

Their love for me and reluctance to let me leave had nothing to do with how I defended them; although they were very grateful, it had more to do with the fact that we were forming a bond.

I never knew I would ever be friends with the rulers of our world.

I did not even expect that I would be friends with Queen Tamia. To also think she was Leo’s ex-wife was incredible.

Honestly, when Leah spoke to me back in Mountain, I felt a bit intimidated and believed I wouldn’t make the cut, that was why I brazed myself for failure, but Leo had blown my mind away.

He had shown me more love in the north than in the east.

I thought he wouldn’t be able to do so because of Tamia, but Tamia being there also helped him grab onto me tighter.

The accident shook me, and I was scared, but that wasn’t why I requested we return home.

I felt our relationship was heading somewhere, and I wanted us to be in that small space again, so we could connect faster.

There was just too much in the north.

The King always called for Leo, and I had to spend time with Tamia and the others.

I loved it, but it robbed Leo and me of our privacy, something we desperately needed.

I was glad he agreed and hoped we visited the north often.

Also, I pray they don’t get attacked again and remain safe.

I wished I could split myself into two and stay to protect them, but even I had my limits too.

Max seemed excited, and I missed him.

He was quiet and inactive at the estate, and I later learned it was because of Avery.

Although Avery never told me what he did, Katya did.

I didn’t want to believe at first because he seemed different, but I knew she wasn’t lying when I saw how the guy acted around Marcel and how he was permanently excluded from everything.

I hope he finds peace and moves on because he has had it worse than Kyle. The woman he betrayed Avery for had died, and he had lost his pack. He lost on all fronts.

Our flight was smooth, and we arrived at Mountain in the afternoon. Casper had come to get us from the airport and was happy to see Leo.
