Fate's Dark Side Chapter 292
I pulled out and lay beside her in bed, trying to catch my breath. It was worth my morning.
I looked at her, and she was trying to catch her breath too.
"Thank you," I said, and she smiled at me.
"You will thank me later," she teased and giggled. We rested a bit before heading to shower. Entering the bathroom, we started our morning routine.
"Did you find out what happened to Jenny's computer?" Tamia asked me, and I wondered where the question sprang from. I figured it must have had something to do with the anxiety she was experiencing in the morning before my erection got in the way.
"Not really. Is there an issue?" I asked her, rinsing my toothbrush, and she nodded, spat the paste in her mouth, and then rinsed out her mouth before rinsing her toothbrush.
Holding the brush under the running water, she stared at it.
"There is a big problem, darling, but I want you not to panic," she said and placed the brush in the holder.
She used the towel to dab the water on her lips and then went into the shower.
"What is it?" I asked, joining her in the shower and picking up the gel while she turned on the water.
"Someone has the computer, and they have access to Jenny's email," she said, and I froze.
Tamia noticed it, collected the shower gel from me, and turned me around.
I felt her hands run across my back, gently caressing me as she lathered the liquid on my skin.
"How do you know this?" I asked her, and she sighed. I could feel her anxiety rise. She was worried about how I will take it.
"Did they threaten you with it?" I asked.
"No, no," she said quickly, and I wondered what the issue might have been then.
"Tell me, please," I said, shut off the water and turned to look at her.
"They threatened your mother with it," she confessed, and I felt my heartbeat pounding in my ears.
I staggered backwards and rested my back against the tiles on the wall.
Jenny knew my mother had a hand in my father's death. Jenny knew my father wanted David as lord. Jenny knew a lot of dirty secrets, and the woman kept a record. She also blackmailed my mother a couple of times, and my mother confessed to exchanging emails with her. This person with Jenny's computer must have access to a lot of information.
"The message was vague, so I doubt the person has proof of anything. Look at it this way. If they had proof of anything at all, your mother would have been arrested by now. They might be trying to scare her and make her slip up," she said, and I shook my head.
After speaking to Liam, I knew the organisation were smart and sadistic people. They might just want to drive her crazy and destabilise everything around us before they strike.
"They might just be playing with her and holding on to the ace," I said to Tamia, and she was silent. Her eyes showed that she was thinking the same thing.
"Damn it!" I growled, and Knight began to growl. It had been a long time since I had shifted. Maybe I needed to let my wolf go wild. With the way I was feeling, I needed an outlet.
"I need to go on a run with Knight," I told my mate, and her eyes looked slightly sad. She nodded quietly, stepping away from me in the shower.
"I will be back. I just need to release my fear," I said, gently patting her cheek, and she nodded. She was scared too.
"I will be back in an hour," I said and stepped out of the shower. I wore shorts and went out of the room.
I walked briskly until I got to the exit, then headed for the western garden leading to the property's forest. Getting into the woods, I shifted, letting Knight take over, and we ran.
