The Dark Side Of Fate by Karima Sa'ad Usman novel Chapter 116

~Tamia~

I walked into Lilly's room and found her lying on the bed. She sat up immediately, and her roommate left the room to excuse us.

"How are you, Lilly?" I asked her pretending as if I did not know she was a two-timing bitch.

"Luna," She said. I drew a chair close and sat in front of her.

"Why are you lying here?" I asked her, and she shrugged.

"There isn't much to do today," She said, and I raised my eyebrow.

"Shouldn't you be at the Arena in Lucland? Are you not supposed to help me get intel on Gezel and the others?" I said to her, and she nodded her head.

"Gezel isn't coming to the Arena today, so I stayed indoors," She explained, and I smiled.

"Do you know what they used the seals you gave them for?" I asked, and he shook her head.

"Do you have anything tangible to tell me?" I asked, and she shook her head. I sighed, letting her know I was pissed.

"We had a deal, Lilly. To keep your life and freedom, you must report everything about the uprising. So far, I haven't gotten anything from you, and you are making me wonder about your loyalty." I said, and she bowed her head.

"I am trying, Luna, but they are all closed off. All of them are silent about their plans. I think they suspect I am no longer with them," She said, and I sighed.

"And why would they think that?" I asked her, and she did not know how to respond.

"Something about you arresting people," She said, and I realised she was trying to get information from me.

Yesterday's line-up must have spooked her, and she wanted to know what we were up to. I had given her a chance, and she had fooled me once, not again.

"Did I arrest anyone?" I asked her, and she shook her head.

Olga and Annika's arrests were secretly made, so we do not alert everyone working against us in the estate.

"So I guess you are not useful to us then," I said, and her eyes widened.

"Your main purpose was to bring me information, but you have failed woefully," I said and linked Wilson to come and arrest her.

"Luna, I tried, but," She started and stopped when she saw Wilson enter the room. Her eyes showed she knew what I was doing.

"You promised, Luna Tamia. You promised," She said, tears streaming down her cheeks, but I was numb to her pain.

There was a time when I believed she was misguided and needed a little faith, but I was wrong. She was evil to her core.

"The price has to be right, Lilly. The price was clear, and you were not willing to pay. It was information for your freedom, and you promised to do your best, but you haven't done your best," I said, and she shook her head while Wison clamped silver on her wrist.

"I gave you Gezel and Sofia. I gave you the people I was dealing with directly. I was forthcoming," She said, weeping profusely while Wilson dragged her away.

I followed behind because I had yet to start with her. I would have a lot of fun getting information from the two-timing bitch.

"You promised, Tamia. You promised!" she said, and I shook my head.

"But you did not keep your side of the bargain. I wanted useful information frequently. Instead of being out there and gathering information for me, you were busy lying on your bed, claiming you had done your best. You bloody ingrate," I said and she began to wail, but Wison clamped his hand on my mouth to silence her.

"Avery, Linda, meet me in the room prepared for Lilly's questioning. Ensure you bring me juice, a sandwich, and your special mix for Lilly. It will be a long day." I said, and I knew they got the message. Wilson did not release her mouth until we were in the dungeon hallway, where only prisoners could hear her.

Her tears were falling, and there was fear in her eyes.

"You are evil, Tamia. I hope Sylvester knows what he is getting into. You are a monster," she said, crying, and I realised she had dropped the pretence.

"You went about telling people you were closest to his heart, implying he was screwing you; well, I have a problem with that," I said, and she sobbed.

"We were screwing, Tamia. I cannot lie about something like that. I just could not own up to it since he wanted to deny it because he is lord. I had to let it be. You aren't the first woman he would ask to marry him, Tamia, do not let him deceive you. This is what he is good at; using women and dumping them," She said, and I could see that she believed her lies.

"I believe we aren't talking about the same man Lilly and if we are, then know that I did not care," I said, knowing that was the best way to shut her up.

"Tamia, please," She said, and Wilson took her into the room.

"String her up," I told Wilson, and he looked at me with fear in his eyes.

"Do you need me to repeat myself, Kappa!" I told the guy, and he shook his head. I guess the punch Theodore gave him on my account when they first brought me to the north had tamed him.

He moved quickly, and I watched him tie her hands up to the bar that was hanging from the ceiling.

"Put a stool under her feet to support her weight," I said with rage in my eyes, and Lilly cried.

"You didn't do this to Sofia. Just lock me up, please," She pleaded with me, and I laughed.

"Do you know what betrayal looks like?" I asked her, and she cried.

"I have repented and given them up. Why are you doing this? I admitted that what I did was wrong and changed my ways, only doing what you asked me to, please, Tamia. I am sorry for not going to the Arena. I am sorry that I have not gotten new information yet. I will try harder. I would do my best." She said without answering my question.

Just then, Linda and Avery walked in, and there was a nightmare in Lilly's eyes. She was scared of my friends but little did she know I was the one she should be afraid of this time. I was the one that would punish her.
