Fate's Dark Side Chapter 741
I felt uneasy. I was angry and nervous at the same time. I tried to relax so I did not get to the point that it wouldn't affect my baby, but I couldn't. My body was going crazy. I stood under the shower and hugged myself, hoping the warm water would soothe my pain. Where was Leo? Why would he leave me to handle this alone? I seemed tough most of the time, but I did not want to face her alone.
Although this would have been good news, I felt angry. I felt she did what she did out of convenience. I felt robbed.
"Leo," I tried to link him, and there was silence.
"Leo," I said, feeling for him again.
"Amelia," he responded, and I exhaled.
"Where are you?" I asked.
"A bad rash. At the Infirmary. They have given us medication, and we are waiting for the itch and inflammation to subside. I am also a bit drowsy." He said, and I remembered the AgK32.
Erik did say the rash was a side effect, but he had said it would be mild. The lying bastard.
"Everyone is there?" I asked him, and it took a bit before he answered.
"Yes, including Sylvester. Everyone that was given the drug except for Devin, I heard he went through his last night, but he is better now," Leo said, and I knew the last part was for my benefit.
It would be best if I did not trouble him with my problems. Facing my mother alone would have to do.
I exited the shower, wore a simple cream dress, and headed to the common room.
"How are you feeling, Amelia?" I heard Tamia's voice in my head. Since when was she able to link me?
"How come?" I asked instead of replying to her question.
"Leo joined Sylvester's pack yesterday. They all did, so they could link each other during the fight in the woods. It is only temporary until this Yuri business is done. Once it is over, it will be back to the way it was," She explained, and I sighed.
Since Leo was my Alpha and Sylvester was now his Alpha, it was expected that Tamia would be able to link me. It also meant I could link Linda too.
"I am fine," I replied, and she was silent.
"I heard your mother is here," She said, and I fought the urge to roll my eyes at the speed at which news travelled. She was queen, so nothing would move past her, but I wished I was allowed to share the news instead.
"So I heard. I am off to join her in the common room," I said, and she was silent.
"Take it easy, Amelia. No one will disturb you. I have assigned an omega to attend to her. They will serve you breakfast there. If you need support, you can call on us," She said, and I was grateful for the support. Tamia had been kind to me since we met. She was indeed an amazing person.
"Thank you, Tamia. I really appreciate it," I linked her back, and she closed the connection. I wanted to link Linda and request she joins me, but I believed I would have to do this alone.
I moved toward the lounge, my heart thumping in my chest. I did not know what to expect and how best to react, but I knew it was only wise that I remained calm for all our sakes.
I heard Alexei and Clay's voices when I got to the lounge. They sounded delighted to see her even though I believed they were seeing her for the first time, but they seemed to have much to discuss.
They stopped talking when I entered, and she was on a couch in the lounge.
She wore a simple white dress, and her hair was wet, so I figured she had showered at the estate.
She stood up and looked at me. I could see a mix of emotions in her eyes. Worry, fear, joy, it was much, and tears lingered in them too.
She was indeed a gorgeous woman.
Raven black hair and brilliant blue eyes. I looked nothing like her.
Time had been gentle on her, and she did not look her age at all. It also meant that she did not suffer. I hated being a bitter bitch, but I felt rage surge. I tried to relax. Alexei and Clay excused us quietly.
We stared at each. I did not know what to say, so I held my tongue.
"I am sorry," She said, tears streaming down her cheeks. She was the first to break the silence, so I held my tongue.
