Fate's Dark Side Chapter 477

I wasn't longing for Tamia anymore. I had let her go. I felt bad for breaking my promises and being weak when I should have been strong. I was trying not to allow my emotions to control me this time.

"I am not going to rush things with Amelia. I will take my time and make sure she is right for her and for me before I jump. I am sure she understands and can wait," I said, and he stared at me a bit sad, then nodded.

"Well, I have no right to advise you. I messed up more than you did, and my life has remained fucked. I would lie if I told you I do not think of Avery and how lucky Marcel is, but she deserves it. After all that I put her through, she deserved it, Leo.

I was a fool. Michelle said things and connived with my men. I believed every word. I should have trusted my wife. We had been through so much together, so I should have trusted her, but I believed a total stranger over her.

The same men that made me believe Michelle ended up betraying me, and Michelle died eventually, leaving me with nothing but painful memories.

There are times when I do not feel like pushing anymore," he said and then looked at me.

"Honestly, Leo, what Alexie did might be for the best. I do not deserve to run a pack. However this hearing goes, I will be fine if you absorb me into your pack along with my people too. I do not mind answering to you, Leo.

Honestly, I do not mind it.

I am only doing this so they would know I cared, and I tried," he confessed, and I was in shock.

I could not believe what Max had just told me.

"Let us hope for the best," I said, and Max smiled. He had told me his truth, and his opinion on the matter will not change.

I ended up making three sandwiches. One for me, one for Max and the last for Amelia when she wakes up. I also left her a note, so she would know where I went.

We left the house and headed for the town hall.

We arrived there and found most of the eastern Alphas waiting. Max and I entered the hall, and there was silence.

My noble status and relationship with the royals gave me more recognition and respect. No one wanted to mess with me.

I looked around and then went to sit at the table reserved for me.

The moment I sat, everyone made themselves comfortable.

Max found a place to sit.

Kyle was also there, staring at me scornfully, but I did not care. I looked at all the alphas present until my eyes settled on who I believed to be, Alexie.

The man had the legendary northern Dark hair. The hair was full, and so was his beard. His eyes were grey but nothing like Amelia's. They looked perfectly regular.

It was a weird eye colour for a northerner.

So I figured Alexie must have western or eastern genes.

He was bulky and handsome.

I could see why Alia would lose her head over the guy, and his aura screamed of danger. Sizing him up, I knew I could take him, but I would not do anything that would lead to that.

"You all are welcome to the meeting," I said, and they thanked me for the invitation.

"I do not want to waste our time, so I would go straight to the point. The King is already interested in this matter. Still, I wanted to see if we could solve it among ourselves to avoid taking it to the north. It would be a shame if we cannot solve matters among ourselves," I said, and most of the Alphas agreed. Kyle was silent, and I did not care.

"I am sure you all have heard what happened at Hill Valley pack," I said, and everyone was silent.

"Alpha Alexei Kuznetsov married Alia Blanch and challenged Alpha Max for his pack yesterday morning. He won the challenge and took over the pack, forcing Alpha Max to leave," I explained, and people began to murmur.

"I know nothing is illegal about what I have just said, but that isn't the issue," I said, and they were silent.

"Alpha Max made some serious allegations concerning that fight, and I am here to verify those allegations," I said and looked at Alexie.
