The Dark Side Of Fate

122 Preparations

I was glad about how Ighor’s questioning had gone. Honestly, I did not have the patience to ask and wait for him to feel generous enough to answer. Left for me, I would have finished him off at the warehouse, but since he needed to correspond with Yuri so they would not suspect their meeting had been compromised, I had no choice but to let him live in the meantime, but Sean and Joan were definitely going to be hanged.

I did not care if the Claymans were nobles; the fact that Joan could jeopardise lives to hide her shame was sick, and she did not deserve to live. She was lucky I had abolished the law that punishes an entire family and clan for the crime of its member. If not, the whole Clayman household would have been hung.

I decided to not only hang Joan but demote the Claymans from their noble status so they wouldn’t have room to work against me again. They would only be useful to my enemies if they were in the system.

When we were ambushed in the woods, I was worried that we had been compromised and that Yuri knew we had caught Ighor, but when Melvin told me they were after Erik, it put my mind at ease.

I was also amazed at the wealth of resources and gadgets they had. The devices were courtesy of Erik, but it was still in their possession regardless, and they were willing to use them. I knew I would need Erik to tell us everything he had created that could be used against us. Especially things that were stolen from him. It was essential.

We waited in the lounge for Levi and Wilson to bring the files they got from Larry’s house. Leo’s good news about his beta and the eastern Alphas had put our minds at ease.

I knew Leo wasn’t in his full capacity and his mind was divided, but I could see the relief now that Maxwell had helped solve the problem in the East.

I prayed Kyle would be safe in the West. I could understand why the three of them remained close despite having nothing in common. They might have been shitty husbands and douchebags to their mates, driven by the mate bond, but they were loyal friends, and their devotion was true.

Maxwell risked his life over something that did not concern him, and so is Kyle; neither hopes to regain their packs, yet they are still helping their friend and others preserve theirs.

It was a pity they fucked up their marriages; I hoped fate would give them a second chance because I knew they would not fuck it up.

In your case, your alpha genes would win the battle and regain their full functions, that is why the drug is temporary, but in a Stepanov, it is permanent because as the antibodies form in a fetus, it stops the alpha genes from forming. Leo’s case is different because he has mutated Alpha genes, and those alpha genes can coexist with the silver-fighting antibodies. I hope this is clear. It is not permanent, and you have nothing to worry about,”
