The Dark Side Of Fate

{Book 2} Chapter 46

~Leo~

The news about the takeover of Kyle’s pack left me speechless. Amelia and I returned to the house while she went to the room; I informed Max of what I had heard. Max was in shock.

“Who will defy the King’s orders?” Max asked, knowing that Sylvester had put a temporary ban on alphas taking over other people’s packs.

It was meant to be in place until we could prove that the two Alphas in question did not win through foul play as their opponents had accused them.

“Someone or people that do not feel they answer to Sylvester,” I replied, and Max looked puzzled.

If what was said was true, we were in a deeper problem. If the attackers had no regard for the current order, then everyone was fair game.

“It could also be that kyle had aggravated someone. You know how he is,” Max said, and it was a valid point, but who would be so aggrieved to the point of risking getting in trouble with the king? I shook my head, disagreeing with Max’s deduction.

“I doubt that is the case,” I told Max max.

Just then, Amelia walked out of the room wearing my t-shirt with short pants that I could bearly see because the shirt covered it. She looked worried too.

“Leo is right. Max,” she said, which meant she was listening to our conversation.

And she headed to the fridge to get something to drink.

“I do not understand why he would come to this place after he had unfriended you,”

Amelia said, and though it was funny, none of us had the heart to laugh.

“I just hope he isn’t bringing his problems with him,” she added, and that was a valid point because Kyle was very vindictive and felt entitled hence why he ended up having issues with Linda and Theo.

“Let’s see,” I said with a sigh and sat on the couch, waiting for Kyle.

I honestly did not want to deal with his problems, but I was worried because whatever happened to him might spill to the rest of the region.

I had the urge to inform Sylvester, but I wanted to know precisely what happened before I spread the news.

Kyle arrived an hour later.

The knock was hysterical, which let me know it was him. It was demanding and urgent.
