The Dark Side Of Fate 68 And They Arrived (Book 2)

Andrew and I spoke extensively about the cult. Amelia and Clay were present. Clay chipped in occasionally, and the cult seemed deeply rooted, well-connected, wealthy and strong.

They had people from everywhere, and their influence and reach were widely spread throughout our world.

They had been in the shadows and controlled things from there; that was true power.

The fact that they had a purpose made them a lethal force.

“So, what if the king refuses to divide his kingdom because that is a possibility?” I asked Andrew, knowing that sharing the kingdom might be pushed against by Sylvester, the lords and the council.

Even if Sylvester is willing for the sake of peace, Dominic might not be, and the council will push back. I was sure of that.

It will be a challenging idea to sell, but our survival depends on it.

Andrew shrugged.

We knew it was beyond our control. That much we could accept.

“Then we have to think of other ways to keep the peace, but Sylvester will lose something either way. The Stepanovs want revenge, and they are equipt to get it. His concentrated alpha genes won’t help in this regard. Unlike the Stepanovs, with almost the same abilities, the strong alpha genes of the Volkovs remain strictly in the line of succession, limiting the strength to one person or two in rare cases.

Maurice was the last of the truly powerful Volkovs. Stephanie’s beta genes have weakened that gene, and Tamia’s delta genes have furthermore weakened it. Sentiments aside, they no longer have that concentration. It is a losing battle for the Volkovs,” he said, and I could understand his views.

Ivanovs are the only sane family I have, and Erik does not have anything good planned for them. The only reason he is yet to come after the true heirs is that he can’t. Alexei and Clay are a lethal force that will always protect their territory. Even though they can’t take their territories, they will attempt to take the region.
