Fate's Dark Side Chapter 820

We went to the infirmary and to my surprise, Claudia’s friends were around. I knew Tamia had sent them away with everyone during the fight so it was shocking to find them there. It was clear they had reconciled with Claudia because they were engaged in an animated discussion and laughing. I guess they understood her reasons and forgave her. We all crossed many lines to get the best outcome, I was glad we came out unscathed.

“I can't wait to reunite with my son,” Marcel said echoing a longing that was present in all their hearts. David and Sylvester too had the same longing and the smile that grazed Sylvester’s face, despite the burning sensation of the rash, said it all.

“Take this, you will not need the IV,” Erik said handing me some pills. I smiled and took it from him. I did not want to be sedated on the bed knowing Max and Kyle were on their way. I was more than happy to swallow the pills.

I watched Claudia and her friends help the others relax. Alexei and Clay were bystanders watching them. Just then, Sylvester began to chuckle and we looked at him. No one had said anything funny to make him laugh but something he was thinking had amused him.

“Share?” David asked and Sylvester laughed and looked at me.

“We were so caught up with Yuri and his goons that we did not organise a tournament this year,” He said bringing up a memory of the first tournament I attended. I covered my face and laughed remembering how we made fools of ourselves trying to play Polo. I remember how Marcel and Theodore had dealt with Max and Kyle on the field. I also remembered Amanda and I could not help but see how far we had come. I joined Sylvester in the laughter.

“We can have a small celebration and a rematch after the sentencing before the blue moon,” Marcel said and I laughed. They were in for a shock because our team would win this time around.

“A rematch between the Northern Bears and the Eastern Bulls,” I said and we laughed. I would love to have that; a little unwinding will not hurt anyone.

Theo, Dominic, Andrew, and Vino arrived in a helicopter five in the evening. We went to greet them.

Their mates were first out the door before us. I knew Katya and Claudia were holding their breaths all through, now the celebration will be complete. Walking towards the helicopter. Claudia ran towards Vino and hugged him tight. He was all smiles, lifting her in his arms and kissing her. She held on tightly and wrapped her arms around him.

“You came back,” I heard her say and I knew she feared the possibility of never seeing him again. Dominic swept Katya off her feet bridal style, while she giggled. They didn’t say much to each other, There was no need for it. I believe they were mind-linking. Linda ruffled Theo’s head before embracing him. She sobbed gently against his chest and he gently stroked her back, reassuringly. It was a beautiful sight to see. Amelia leaned close to me battling her tears.

“She had her heart in her mouth throughout,” Amelia told me looking at Linda by the helicopter and I pulled her close and rubbed her arm gently.

"She can breathe now, we can all breathe now,” I said and I had never felt sure of anything more than I did at that moment. It was indeed over.

Theodore, Dominic, and Vino retired to their rooms with their mates, except for Andrew who had no one, but he retired still, while the rest of us waited for Max and Kyle to arrive. I was anxious because they would have to secure the prisoners at the prison first before coming to the estate. I could not wait to appreciate them for what they had done. I was happy.

Max and Kyle arrived at seven in the evening. We got to know from the gate that they had arrived and we rushed to meet with them. I stood outside the entrance of the building with Amelia, Devin and Alexei, and Clay, waiting to receive them.

The cab parked and both of them alighted with broad smiles.

I hugged Max. I could not control my emotions. I was glad that they survived. Then I broke the hug and hugged Kyle who was laughing. There was relief in the air.

Devin thanked them genuinely from the bottom of his heart for fighting and winning a battle that was his. Max let him know we were all the same and his battle was also theirs.

I looked at us and realised we had all come a long way. Not wanting to keep them waiting outside, we ushered them into the building while they told us what happened in the south and how the battle went. It was a very interesting story. The funniest part was the fact that those bastards did not plan to spare the lives of the Alphas that had betrayed Devin. They planned to wipe them out. I couldn't wait for the hearing that would take place tomorrow. Tomorrow will usher in a new era; one without malice and prejudice.
