The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 431

We entered the room where we kept Lucas, and he was sitting on the chair reading a book. He looked better than he did when we found him. They had cut his beard and his hair. He had also managed to gain some weight in a short period. With the silver off him, it was easy for his wolf and body to fix themselves.

He looked at us, and his eyes showed shame and regret. His eyes travelled to Marcel, and he bowed his head in submission. He must think we wanted to punish him for killing our fathers, but we had come for answers.

"Why?" Marcel said before I could say anything, and Lucas looked at him with tear-filled eyes. His lips quivered as if he was trying to hold a sob. His lips finally parted with a sigh.

"I am sorry, son," he said, and I realised he must have figured out that he was wrong even without the test result being shared.

"I did not know what came over me that night. I got a message from someone about Morissa a day before, and I became mad. We started drinking, and one thing led to the other. I knew I wanted to kill him. I felt like it. Maurice was a greedy sick fuck, and I wanted to end him. He had crossed all limits. It was fun when we did it with the women in the harem but not our mates. It was cruel, and the extent they went to do it was what made me feel betrayed. It wasn't by accident. It was deliberate and calculated, and Gavin allowed it. I snapped.

I had always allowed Maurice to lead and tell me what to do all my life, but I wasn't his beta that night; I was his enemy. I asked him about it, and he was too intoxicated to deny it.

He and Gavin even went as far as describing the experience and the times it had occurred. They claimed they had lost count. They found it amusing.

All the times I woke up with throbbing headaches and could not figure out what happened played in my mind. I know you love your mother, Marcel, but Morissa was a bitch. She wanted it. She had always liked Maurice and envied Stephanie greatly. She wasn't like the women that had no choice but to serve. She wanted it.

She was the one that served me the drinks. Then she would slip out of our bedroom to party with Maurice. No wonder she did not want to leave the estate to stay in Lucland. I bet she did not expect Gavin to join in, but he did. It was Maurice's way of letting her know she wasn't special.

I was mad, and I snapped.

The anonymous message said you might not be mine, and I believed it. I believed everything, and I wanted revenge.

I knew I should have allowed us to return and seek justice with the council. We had consumed many things that night, and I couldn't control myself.

I felt everything in the strongest way possible. It was as if the rage was radiating from me. So I attacked them and killed them.

The young head Alpha of the south walked in on me, and I attacked him too, but I was wounded and tired by them.

He would have killed me in self-defence had I not submitted.

Slowly I realised what I had done, and I knew what awaited me in the north, so I pleaded with him to take responsibility for the deaths and told him he could claim the lordship.

He was reluctant, but I pleaded with him to do it, letting him know the benefits. I knew if he claimed it, no one would persecute him because it happened in his territory. He could easily claim he was defending his territory. It also meant he would be feared because everyone knew how ruthless we were. He agreed, and I took off.

Unknown to me, men were lurking about the place, waiting for the right opportunity to abduct me. I fell into their hands, and they captured me. That was when I realised what had happened and that I had been manipulated and set up," He said, and I was shocked.
