Fate's Dark Side Chapter 796

"Is there anything you do not cut cash on?" Theodore asked him, and we laughed.

"Yes, a matter of fact, there is. I do not compromise when it comes to my mate," Leo said, turning back on the stairs to look at us while flashing a brilliant smile.

We all laughed at that too.

It is evident with the expensive things Amelia wore. Even Tamia's pieces of jewellery that arrived from the East were expensive.

We laughed and continued to climb the stairs until we got to a hallway.

Leo led us to a room, and we entered.

It was massive, with multiple windows. It was also dark except for the light coming from outside. There was a clear view of the Theather and some buildings around it.

Leo came prepared for espionage.

There were binoculars, cameras, and some radio devices with weird-looking antennas.

He spent a lot getting all these things set up.

I take back my conclusions about Leo being a miser. It seemed he only spent money on things he deemed necessary. His men were there too. Four were positioned at three different points, keeping their eyes on something.

"I have settled your warriors with mine on the next street. It will take ten to fifteen minutes for them to get here if a battle ensues," Leo said, motioning us to join him by an expansive glass wall that seemed like a massive window but had no opening.

People afraid of heights could not stand close to it because it looked like a big opening anyone would fall out of.

"The three buildings over there are occupied by Stepanovs," He said, his eyes glazed over as if he were communicating with someone. Soon his eyes returned to normal, but he seemed a bit worried, and I figured it was an update that wasn't in our favour.

"I just received information that the meeting will occur tomorrow night and not next tomorrow as Ighor had led us to believe. My men just intercepted a phone communication and found out.

I do not know if Yuri will be here, but we are hopeful he will show up," Leo said, and I could see why he wasn't comfortable with Ighor being here. I was uncomfortable too.

"I thought you said you could detect their code, Andrew?" I asked Andrew, and he did not know what to say. Instead, he looked at Ighor.

"I swear on my wolf that I wasn't being smart. I wasn't trying to deceive any of you. I think Yuri might have figured out that I was caught," Ighor said, but I did not trust him.

We were better safe than sorry, so I asked two people on Leo's team to take Ighor away from the place. We did not need him listening in on our conversation. We waited until they were gone before we continued our conversation.

"I honestly doubt he figured it out. I think they moved up the meeting so they could have the coronation. Lukman has been released from the cells and told me that a coronation is happening next tomorrow. There aren't a lot of Stepanovs in Greenville as we speak, so Max and Kyle will have it easy," Devin said, and I looked at Leo. It must have skipped his mind to tell me that part, but it was okay. There was too much on our minds already.

"Were your men able to estimate the number of Stepanovs around here?" I asked him, and Leo nodded.

"Between a hundred to a hundred and fifty. It is a rough guess, but it is nowhere near the number that Ighor said, but let us see what happens tomorrow. If the meeting is taking place tomorrow night, then they should all arrive tomorrow," Leo said, and I relaxed.

"I will reach out to Peter and find out what is going on," Alexei said, and I looked at him surprised.

"You mean you are yet to figure out if they are battle ready? By now, they should have their troops around this area. Gad is a big city. The farther they are from here, the longer it will take them to get here," I said, and Clay agreed with me.

"Yes, your majesty, but my brother and I did not want to risk it. We decided we would call them last minute. We are not a hundred per cent sure that they won't double-cross us. Having them move towards the area where the Theater is situated would be suspicious, especially if there are traitors in their midst," Clay said, and Marcel disagreed.

"There is no winning without risks. Whether we like it or not, the traitors will still work against us last minute. By making this decision, you have also weakened our support.

Both of you have the right to be in Gad; they already know you plan to attack the alphas of packs in the West.

You should call to move them here and let them know you will attack Billworth tomorrow evening.

It is an hour's drive from here.

There is nothing but forest between Gad and Billworth, so it is plausible you will want them here ahead of time.

If traitors are in their midst, they will inform Yuri of your plans. He will communicate with his people in this vicinity; thanks to Leo's gadgets, we can intercept their calls and know their next line of action. It is a risk you should be willing to take, Alexei," Marcel said, and even though I could understand Alexei's point of view, I had to agree with Marcel. We had to take the risk.
