The Dark Side Of Fate by Karima Sa'ad Usman novel Chapter 155

~Sylvester~

I heard the bell, and I knew it was time. I had spent a day away from Tamia, and somehow, because of my eagerness, it felt like an eternity.

We were not allowed to link with each other, so I had to block the link. It was hard, but I did it. I had never been happy to hear the sound of the bell before until now.

It meant it was time for me to make Tamia mine.

It was still daylight, but the blue moon would be out by the time the wedding ceremony ended.

I wished we did not have to partake in the wolf-claiming ceremony; I would have skipped the reception and gone to claim my mate. It was hard holding out on her.

I was glad I would not be holding out anymore.

I wore my royal tailcoat, which already had the medals on them. My hair was packed, and my beard was trimmed and clean.

I looked at myself in the mirror, and I was grateful. Knight was giddy.

I never knew a day like this would come for me.

I never knew that I would fall in love and find a place in the heart of a beautiful and strong woman like Tamia. She came into my life and fixed everything that was broken.

Fate brought her to me. However dark and twisted the circumstance was, it brought her to me, and here we were, taking the final step to complete our bond.

I remember the first time I saw her. She was on her knees, and I had lifted her chin to gaze into her eyes. Those green orbs trapped my soul, and my wolf and I were smitten. It has remained that way ever since.

I was grateful for Ramsey's stunt. Had he not done what he did, I would not have attacked the east, and Tamia would not be in my life. I guess it all worked out for my benefit. I gained two brothers and a true mate in the process.

I looked at my image in the mirror and promised to ensure my marriage would last. I promised that this would be it and she will never have to worry about my love.

Taking a deep breath, I turned away from the mirror and left the room.

I headed to the grand hall at the left wing. My mother wanted us to have the wedding in a hall in Lucland, but I did not want to have my wedding in Lucland. I wanted it to be at the estate so I could immediately carry my mate to our room instead of driving a distance.

We decided to use the grand hall in the left wing for the wedding, the eastern garden for the claiming and the ballroom for the reception.

Arriving at the grand hall, I was amazed at work done.

My mother outdid herself.

I stood at the door and began to walk down the aisle heading to the altar. There was a throne for Tamia and me on top of the platform behind where the officiator was standing.

A crowd was in the hall, and everyone stood up. The men saluted me while I walked quickly to take my position before my bride arrived. Because Marcel and Theodore were getting married too, David was my best man. Devin stood beside him. I walked to where David and Devin were, and David smiled, still saluting. He looked so much like our father.

I looked at the first row and saw my mother, Jake Brighton, who I believed was dating her secretly and Vino standing. I wondered where Leo was. Had he somehow skipped the wedding?

Vino was still frail, but he was better than he was when we brought him home. There was hope he would be alright.

The people paid their respects and soon sat down. That was when the bridal music began, and my heart leapt.
