Fate's Dark Side Chapter 240

Tamia and I had increased the strength of the mountain pack, knocking him out of first place in the east.

I was occupying his seat. Kyle and Max knocked him down to fourth place. Could he create trouble for us because of it?

I believed it was more profound than that, and I was determined to get to the bottom of things.

"Max and Kyle have Leo's vote. I can't contest it," Ramsey said casually, and Amanda shook her head.

"I am sure Leo will side with you." She said and squeezed my hand.

"Won't you, darling?" She said, and honestly, I cringed.

I knew I said I wanted to try with Amanda, but other than the bond, there was nothing. It wasn't her fault; the issue was with me.

"No, I won't," I said bluntly, and she stopped.

"I won't, darling, because your father is in retirement. I can also put Kyle and Max in check. I won't be able to caution your father," I explained, and she shook her head.

"You aren't putting those two in check. If you were, they wouldn't have caused the war and friction between the north and east," She said, and I shook my head.

"Kyle did not attack the Western border in Gad. I believe him. I do not know who did it, and I don't care." I said quickly, so the main culprit sitting with us won't be on alert.

"How can you not care? They took Tamia away," she said with a shaky voice.

"You did not see how they bound her in chains and took her away, Leo. She could have pointed at me or let them kill you, but she gave herself to them," She said, getting all emotional.

"And she is now a lady of the north. I believe it served her well," Ramsey said with a bit of jealousy or scorn.

He used his daughter to force Tamia out of our home; now, Tamia got herself a bigger and better wolf.

"Tamia was lucky with the wolf Lord," she said, and I stopped her. It was evening time.

"We need to return to the hotel." I said, standing up, and she stood with me.

I was tired of the conversation, and I wanted to get away from Ramsey. My mind was still processing what Sylvester told me about his involvement with the attack.

"I will see you tomorrow, daddy," Amanda said and hugged her father. Ramsey kissed her cheek, and he shook my hand. Amanda and I walked away.

We returned to the hotel suite that we shared with Max and Kyle.

After I showered, I changed into something comfortable and picked up the intercom to order a meal.

"What would you like to eat?" I asked Amanda when she exited the bathroom, and she smiled at me.

"Surprise me," she said and came to bed in her night dress.

I ordered her favourite and ordered mine. She was excited and rested her head against my chest.

"Amanda," I said, and she looked at me with a smile.

"Do you tell your father everything that is going on in our home?" I asked her, and she was silent before responding. I knew the answer was yes, but I kept it to myself.

"Not that I go and tell him, he talks to me about things, and I find myself answering the questions. He is very curious, and you know I am his only child," she said, giggling, and I pretended to laugh. Realising I needed to be secretive around Amanda.

"Leo," she said, and I answered her gently.

"Now that Tamia is getting married and you know she is happy, are we going to get married too?" She asked me, and I sighed.

"We have claimed each other already. There is no need for a ceremony. Only chosen mates practise blue moon ceremonies and weddings," I said, and she was silent.

I knew it was customary to have a wedding ceremony with her, but I refused simply because I knew her father was the one pushing her to do it, and I did not want to name her Luna officially too.

I wasn't there yet.

We ate, and Amanda fell asleep thirty minutes after we finished eating. The movie we were watching was boring, so I could understand.

My eyelids became heavy too but sleep left me when I heard Max roaring in the living area.

I left the room in my pyjama pants and saw Max angry and fuming, pacing up and down the room.

"What is the meaning of this? Amanda is trying to sleep," I said, and Kyle looked at me angrily.

"What good are you?" he said, and I frowned at him,

"All you had to do was demand a swap, and you failed. How can you call yourself our leader yet have no leadership in you? You have no spine," He said, and I was slowly getting angry.
