The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 419

"I agree," I said, and I saw my mother coming out of the hospital holding a baby in her hand. Katya had one in her hand, too, and, likewise, Nicole. David's triplets came out and rushed to hug their father.

He squatted to their height and hugged them. The sight warmed my heart, and I knew soon that would be me.

"I did not need to guess whose babies they were carrying. It was as if Vino had already been adopted without the test results. At this point, it really didn't matter. We could not end both his and Amanda's lives. One had to remain to care for the triplets, and because of that, I would go easy on Vino. His crime was just as severe as the traitors because he kept the truth from me, but I was willing to forgive him and move on.

Dominic and his team, comprising David, our mother, their mates, David's children, Vino's babies and Vino, who was in a wheelchair, entered a van provided by Bryce. The Head enforcer had come with an extra bulletproof van to transport them back.

We got into the van we came in and headed back to the estate.

On our way, the news on the radio station talked about the battle that happened in front of Lucland general hospital.

The news did not have the true story, so they said a group of terrorists attacked the hospital holding the people in the hospital hostage. Sir Dominic and Sir David were the heroes that kept the people inside safe and drove the criminals out of the building. While Sir Marcel, Sir Theodore, Councilman Devin, Councilman Leo and the King came physically to obliterate the threat that surrounded the building.

Most of the things they said in the news were exaggerated. They exaggerated the number of attackers, and the time it took to subdue them.

We listened to several radio stations; that was all they discussed.

Some of the things they said made us laugh, especially the ones that weren't so accurate. But they all had the same question.

Who were these people, and why?

I knew going to the King's hall to address the people and give them an explanation was inevitable.

We might not arraign the criminals for judgement now, but we need to explain to the people what happened and reform the council before we proceed.

Arriving at the estate, Tamia, Avery, and Linda were outside the entrance to welcome us home. They must have heard the news.

The smiles on their faces showed that they were satisfied with what we had done.

We did not grab our mates to hug or kiss them because we were sensitive to Leo and Devin's feelings, who did not have anyone to welcome them at the entrance.

Instead, we walked into the building, and everyone headed to their quarters to rest.

Entering the room. Tamia hugged and kissed me with all the passion she could manage.

"Thank you for coming home, darling. I was worried," she confessed, almost on the verge of tears.

"Dying wasn't an option for me," I teased her, and she smiled.

"Any casualties?" she finally asked, and I shooked my head.

"Bryce took the best of his enforcers, and we were equally determined," I told her, and I could see the satisfaction in her eyes.

I could also understand her concern.

We had lost enough to the traitors.

We went to shower. Even though she was clean, she joined me. Although I was too tired to do anything, we had fun just washing each other.

I was too tired to dress up, so I laid naked on the bed. Tamia joined me.

"So what next?" she asked me when she laid beside me.

"Max, Kyle and Casper are sending the traitors on Amanda's list to the north. We will have to question them about their part in all this. But for now, they will have to wait because we have to rest for our wedding.

We would proceed with the hearing, sentencing and reshuffling of the council after our wedding," I said, and she smiled at me. There was really no urgency anymore; we had caught the King.

"The blue moon we had awaited for so long is finally at hand," She said, and I smiled at her.

"Lucas is receiving treatment. It seems he has a lot to say but has been unable to speak. The doctor said it would take a week to get him in a condition he would be able to speak. Larry really did number on him. I cannot even speak of the things that man did to Lucas. I also cannot say he did not deserve it if what Larry said was true, but Larry was extreme," she said, and I looked at her.

"Do you think it is necessary to hear him out?" I asked her, and she nodded.

"It is necessary to learn what truly happened that night. That letter still hangs over your mother's head; if it is brought in the open, she will stand trial. Since Larry would stand trial, he is bound to give her up. We need to know what happened that night, coupled with Devin's testimony, to free her, or else you will be forced to make a partial judgement in her favour. That would be the wrong place to start as a king. The people already love you," she said, and I knew she was right.

"Very well. We will interrogate him after our wedding. For now, we will rest. You will get the beauty treatment you need while we all prepare for the wedding," I said, and she rested her head on my chest. We were both happy and content. I could not wait to make her mine.
