The Dark Side Of Fate by Karima Sa'ad Usman novel Chapter 247

~Leo~

"I want you to listen to me, Timothy, and do as I say. I will send aid to you now," I said, and the man was silent.

"I need you to evacuate your people and send them to Hill Valley, nearest you," I said, and he exclaimed.

"Hill Valley, where that creep is?" he said, and I sighed.

"You have to trust me on this one. Alexei is not the enemy, and he would not take your pack. Inkabod is the one that sacked Brent in the night, and I think they are coming to sack Brentwood to get a base close to Mountain. Do as I say, and I will explain the rest to you later," I said, and he was silent.

"Okay, I will trust you on this one, but you will find a good Alpha to take over Brentwood from me. I want to retire, and Mirabel isn't an Alpha breed," He said, airing his problems.

I told him not to worry and hung up.

Usually, I would tell Timothy it wasn't my business, but I needed him and his people out of that land before Inkabod came for him.

"Amelia, I need you to get everyone in the living room of the packhouse. I am coming there now," I linked my mate.

"Leo, I am halfway away from the packhouse," She complained, and I felt terrible.

"Never mind, I will go back," She said, and I still felt terrible that I would put her through stress.

I told my parents what Inkabod was about to do, and my mother was happy.

"Let's make some darts and load them up with Promethazine and midazolam. Shot that thing at them, and capture the bastard. They will attack with an army of twenty-five to thirty. They never go above that number. They are not as plenty as they seem hence why they operated in the shadows for a while. I am sure the three Stepanovs here, the warriors, and our darts would nullify them.

They are also likely to pump silver into the air. They always do that to keep people like us in check. You need oxygen masks for that. It will touch your skin and burn but won't get into your system. The Nitric acid sprays are needed too. Forget about your wolves. They won't let them come out," My mother said, rushing through her words.

It seemed like my parents had a checklist of how to battle these things. I was glad to have them home.

The bungalow was too small to accommodate all of us, so I led my parents to the packhouse. I would have loved Amelia to meet them away from everyone, but Inkabod's coming attack on Brentwood had put us on a clock.

We arrived at the packhouse, and my father commended me for building something grand and beautiful. I led them to the living room, where everyone was waiting.

Amelia stood up and came to me the moment we entered.

I knew she was nervous because it had clicked that they were my folks. I looked like my father, and she was very smart.

Amelia held onto my arm while my parents looked around to admire the place and the people that were waiting in the living room.

Tamia was shocked to see my mother, and my mother went to hug her.

I felt weird because Amelia was right beside me.

My mother broke the hug with Tamia and came towards Amelia. She touched her cheek gently and smiled at her.

"Hello, Amelia," she said, and Amelia smiled.

"Amelia, meet my mother, Martha Albert, and that is my father, Richardo Albert, but my mother calls him Richard," I said officially, introducing my parents to Amelia.

"I wanted this to be private and just us, but something came up," I linked to Amelia.

"It is okay; I hope I get time with them when all this is over," She linked me back, and I was glad she wasn't difficult or emotional about it.

"You look so much like Louis," My father said, and I figured he must have known her dad.

"Did you know him?" I asked my father, and he nodded.

"I helped him a lot when he had to move about. We lost contact when he fled to the West. Clay was a child then, and Alexei was in the north with his mother," My father said, and he did know them. It also meant Alexei and Clay were not lying to me.

"Your father was a good man. He was peace-loving and easily content. To think he was the true heir and he did not want any of it," My father told her, and she smiled at him.

Amelia could not feel sentiment over a man she never knew. I was angry that Yuri robbed her of that opportunity. He ruined many lives and still is ruining lives for his ambitions.

Everyone sat down, and Clay and Andrew walked in. I had forgotten entirely that they were with us.

The moment Andrew saw my father, he froze.

"Elder Albert?" he said, and my father looked at him sternly.

"You had some nerves trying to get my son to team up with that psycho," My father said through gritted teeth, and everyone was silent.

I noticed Sylvester, Marcel, and Theodore were observing the scene. I had to respect Sylvester for allowing me to take charge even though he was King. It took a lot of patience, trust and humility for him to do what he was doing, and I appreciated it.

Amelia instructed the Omegas to bring refreshments and said they could serve anything other than spring rolls. Avery was grateful for it, and Susan laughed.

"What is going on, Leo?" Sylvester finally asked me.

"Inkabod will be visiting Brentwood tonight, just like Alexei had warned us," I said and narrated all that Timothy and I discussed on the phone.

"It means we do not need that bitch as bait," Linda said, and I nodded.

"We can't fight him and whatever army he takes to Brentwood. You needed to see them, Leo; they were ruthless and deadly. We stood no chance," Kyle said, reliving his ordeal, and I nodded.
