Fate's Dark Side Chapter 628

We noticed that Nicole said nothing, and I looked at her. Her cheeks were red. I did not know if it was alcohol or embarrassment.

"Well?" Linda asked her.

"David told me everything," she said, but we all knew that already.

"He told our children too," She added, and Tamia exclaimed.

"Why would he do that?" she asked and then quickly stopped Nicole from answering because we all figured out why and did not want Claudia to know.

He told them so their children would know what happened if their parents did not survive it. It was his way of passing on knowledge.

"So, what do you think about your relatives, Amelia? Because if we look at this, your brothers should be the ones who are angered, but they aren't, so what is the deal with Erik and Yuri?" Tamia said, and I shook my head.

"I strongly suspect that Yuri is the biggest issue, and it will be a mistake for Sylvester to divide the kingdom with him," I said, and they were attentive.

"I will tell you all what I told Leo. Use Yuri's men to take Erik down and then take Yuri down. We only want Stepanov's name to be restored in history and the Volkovs to right their wrongs. Alexei said it was a lordship they fought for, so they are willing to settle for lordship, but they are not going after the kingship," I said, and Tamia sighed.

"That is a very sensible thing your brother said, and to think we thought they were the enemies", She added.

"Yes, I trust them, but I don't trust my cousin, Andrew. I just think it is weird he would want us to team up with someone that is killing innocent people to achieve his goals," I said. Avery nodded, she was the only one not drinking, and it was because she was pregnant.

"But you need to understand that Yuri is the lesser of the evils to Andrew. Erick wants to wipe us out and have you mated to his son. Yuri just wants to divide the kingdom," Avery said, and Tamia shook her head.

"I understand what Amelia is saying, Ave. Erik's goals aren't clear to us except for what we have heard from Andrew, but Yuri's goals are clear. More so, Erik did not wipe out an entire settlement and take innocent lives for his cause. Who is to say he will be content with just half? Anyone that would do that would want the whole kingdom with time, and it will be a given when that time comes." She said, seeing it from my angle.

"I thought as much, too," Linda said.

"I think we should investigate Erik and find out his true purpose, the truth is we have to team up with one of them to get the other, but we need to know the safer option. We should try and see how we can get to Erik. Leo's folks, if they show up, might help us with that bit. Unless we know what we are dealing with, we won't be safe," Linda said, and I knew we were already a team.

"So are we combining efforts with the men or working separately?" Claudia asked, and Tamia laughed.

"We have to combine efforts. We have to be on the same page. We will fail if we try to solve this apart," She said, and I was glad we had the discussion. I knew tomorrow would be great.
