Fate's Dark Side Chapter 42

"So why is Avery mad? It has to be more than that." I said, knowing Avery was too tough to be mad about a lover that refused to go away.

"I have ended it, and then she got into Avery's head about this being a norm. She told her we usually split the lunas among ourselves and sleep with them to get information about their husbands and former packs so we can attack them," He said, and I was pissed off and worried.

Avery was Tamia's friend. If she tells Tamia this, Kaira will be mad. Tamia might pretend, but I know her wolf won't.

"How the fuck did she get into the estate?" I asked him, and he bowed his head.

"She didn't. I took Avery to town, and we met in a store," He said, and I did not know what to tell him.

He wasn't supposed to take any of the newcomers off the property. Why will he take Avery to town? I did not want to create an issue, so I let it rest.

"You need to fix it," I told him, and he nodded.

We ate dinner in silence, and the atmosphere was a bit glum, but my heart wasn't.

My hands were on Tamia's thigh, and I couldn't wait to go to bed.

" Alpha, there is an attack on the north gate, southern soldiers," one of my warriors told me through the mind link, and I stood up abruptly.

"What is the matter?" Tamia asked me, looking worried.

"I need you to stay indoors. There is an attack on the north gate, and we must defend ourselves," I told her, and her eyes darkened.

" You do not have a lot of warriors on the estate," She said, and I wondered how she knew.

"I pay attention, Sylvester. I was a luna remember?" She said, and I sighed.

"We can take them," I said, and she grabbed me and kissed me.

"We still have a lot to do. Come back in one piece," She ordered me, and I smiled.

Marcel, Theodore and I headed out.

There was a commotion in the passage; the residents were being taken to safety.

I had about fifty men in the estate. I am sure we could take them. I did not need to know who sent the attackers. I was sure it was Bane's handwork.

We headed there, and the men were plenty. Knight took over, and we shifted.

The attackers had torn down the northern gate, and they were many. How did they get warriors here so fast? There was no way they were all from the south.

I sensed eastern soldiers were among them.

Knowing the south and east had an alliance, there was no doubt that the eastern soldiers were among the herd.

They came at me like mad wolves, and I unleashed my anger on them.

I was angry that they disrupted a peaceful night.

I had saved up my energy to keep my promise to Kaira, now I had to use it on them.

Knight was angry. Why wouldn't they just leave us alone?

I hit the wolf that leapt at me and knocked it away with so much force that it flew sideways.

We were winning, and most of the attackers died. We had injured a lot of them, and I could only see a few standing; then, they released a weird green gas. It was sudden. Some of us managed to step away from it, but Knight had inhaled it, making Knight weak.

"Poison, fall back," I linked my wolves.

The green gas cleared, but we were too weak to continue.

The remaining wolves, about sixteen, came at us, and Knight whimpered, stepping back.

My vision was blurred, and I couldn't see much.

I realised the gas was their last resort.

We had injured and killed most of them, and we were still many compared to them. But our numbers did not matter because we were weakened by the weird green gas.
