The Dark Side Of Fate by Karima Sa'ad Usman novel Chapter 232

~Amelia~

A feast was being prepared in the Kitchen, and I wondered who the food was for.

I began to suspect Leo was planning and hiding something, but I wouldn't push it.

I planned to let it rest, trusting he would inform me when the time came. After making sure the food was good. I decided to write down the names of the people cooking in the Kitchen.

I entrusted that on no account should they change, and other than them, no one else should be allowed near the food.

They were also required to serve it when it was time and guard the food with their lives. It was important.

With all the attacks and talks of cult people and informants or helpers, whatever Andrew calls them, flying around, I did not want to be caught unaware.

I have never trusted anyone in my life, and I wouldn't start doing so now. Leo was laid back on what he put in his mouth, but that was one of the most important things to be careful about. Had Susan not run away, we would have handled this cooking.

I was mad at her for bolting, but I knew there were people like that. Some people cannot face their problems. They just run.

I guess it is because she has somewhere to run to, and no one is out to get her.

If she were in my shoes, she would have had no choice but to stay.

I had nothing to my name and no one to go to. I would rather spend that energy proving I was innocent than leaving and exposing myself to the harsh world.

Leo had made this place home for me. For the first time in my life, I had a home and family. I would have stayed. But I could not judge her.

Devin was the one that accused her, not Leo. It must suck believing the man you love and want to spend the rest of your life with, who happens to be the only person in your life, thinks you did wrong. There was no getting around it. She did what she felt was best for her. I hope that Devin finds her and fixes it.

I left the Kitchen eventually and headed to my room. Leo had linked me to inform me he wanted to show Andrew and Clay the Pack. I had no problem with him showing Clay, but I had an issue with Andrew.

He might be my cousin and might have protected me from afar because I still went through a lot of shit out there on my own, but I still did not trust him.

If he could turn his back on people he has been with all his life, what is to say he is not here to gain Leo's trust and help his cult get the East?

We would have to keep a close eye on him.

I did not like that Leo agreed to house him, and I would have a lengthy discussion with Leo about it when he returned.

If Andrew has to be here, an eagle's eye should be on him.

I am not taken by the family card they are all playing. Clay and Alexei are sincere; I can feel it, I feel them somehow, but Andrew is an enigma, and I do not like those.

Two hours later, I heard a kappa mind link me.

"Luna, you have guests," he said, and I managed to get off the bed. I was about to sleep, but I could not complain; Leo wasn't home, so I guess hosting the guests fell on me, and it clicked that these guests might be why Leo was preparing a feast. Knowing these were dire moments. I linked the Kappa back.

"Who are they, and what do they want. Do they have an invitation?" I asked, not wanting to play into the hands of enemies. I could not make myself a liability.

"Luna, It is Queen Tamia and the ladies of the north," he said, and I screamed joyfully.

I could not believe this. I could not believe it. I could not wait to see them and their children.
