The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 277
My mother looked furious, and I knew they had found something. I cleared my throat, and Tamia looked at me.
" Enzo Mikhailov," she said, and I frowned at her;
"He was the enforcer that led the attack and left a message claiming he was from you," She said.
I remembered Jacob's role and wondered what the Mikhailovs had against me to work against me like this.
I tried to compose myself because I did not want whoever sent those cards to suspect something was off. We needed to act as normal as possible, but I was desperate to get Tamia away from the arena.
"Shall we?" I said aloud.
"Please, Alpha jake, stay with us for a few days in The estate before you return home. It is my way of apologising to you," I told the alpha, and the look in his eyes showed he understood what I was doing.
"With gratitude, my Lord. I wasn't able to identify the person. You know how war is. The memory is a blur,' he said, and I nodded, telling him it was okay.
"It was simple logic. Whoever sent those cards wanted something, so they would likely listen to our conversation and watch our actions after seeing them.
I linked Marcel and Theo and headed to the car park to enter our vehicles.
I left Dominic and Katya at the arena because one of us had to present medals to the swimming teams. He would handle all my official duties concerning the games while I remained at the estate, investigating the issues we were facing.
The ride was smooth, and I was relaxed, knowing I had gained two powerful unlikely allies. I knew Tamia would be curious to know how the meeting went with Leo and Devin.
It would be discussed as Pillow talk, especially Leo. I was worried for the man; he seemed to be hanging on a thread mentally.
We arrived at the estate, and everyone rushed to their wings and rooms. My mother handled Alpha Jake's reservations, and they seemed to be friendly with each other, so I knew he was in good hands.
The moment Tamia and I entered the room, I pinned her against the wall and kissed her to calm the stormy sea of fear inside me. She returned the kiss with the same passion.
"Thank you," I said and broke away from her.
"How did your meeting go?" She asked, and I looked at her.
"They are willing to work with us. Devin thinks Amanda might be working for her father. He has the same misgivings about Ramsey," I said, avoiding talking about Leo.
Even though she loved me, I knew Tamia cared about Leo and knowing he was suffering would affect her mood. I would still tell her when we decide to rest.
"Kappa Levi has arrested Amy Zakharov, and they are on their way. The irony is her husband was the one that gave her up." Marcel linked me, and I was happy we had some people in custody.
Hopefully, it won't lead to a dead end this time around. I needed to catch someone and end this nonsense once and for all.
"Vino came to see me," I told Tamia while she was taking off her clothes to slip into something comfortable. She turned to look at me and frowned.
"Why?" She asked, and I sighed.
"He said the petitions the alphas raised made him look suspicious, and he came to tell me he had no hand in it. He was genuinely afraid I would suspect him. He believed someone was trying to set him up like they did Dominic," I said, and Tamia laughed.
"Is he stupid or what?" she said, and I wondered why she would say that.
"The uprising has no reason to set him up. Dominic was set up to cover the track of the people that attacked Brighton. Why would they want to set Vino up," she asked, slipping out of her undergarments, and I realised she had very valid points.
Vino was really stupid.
There was no reason for them to set him up unless they wanted me to waste my time investigating him and creating a problem between us.
"I think they have a motive, Tamia," I said, and she looked at me standing naked. Her body was gorgeous, and I was trying hard to focus on my thought and not drool.
