The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 470

While I thought of Max's predicament, I remembered the next council meeting would be next week.

"I need you to pack some of your things. We will be going to the north next week. I have a council meeting, and Tamia wants to meet you," I told her, and her eyes widened.

"No pressure, Moonlight. You are perfect. You will like your time there. Tamia, Avery and Linda are wonderful women. They are older than you, but they are wonderful. I am sure you will fit in nicely," I kissed her neck. She moaned sweetly, and I wanted to take her.

Her fear spoiled our moment the other day, and now, Max's predicament would spoil our moment today. I wanted to make it memorable. I wanted it to count, so I planned to wait for the perfect moment. For now, kissing her would do.

I felt Black trying to reach the surface, but I stopped him. I wouldn't let him take control until Amelia and I were in the right place.

Max and his pack members eventually arrived. Casper received them. Casper linked me to let me know he came with fifty people, so I instructed Macy through the main link to find temporary accommodation for them within the settlement. While I instructed Casper to bring Max to my house.

The moment the knock came, Amelia stood up to leave. I let her excuse herself because I did not know the type of mood Max would set.

Casper walked in with a shirtless Max. His eyes were sad, and he looked like he had seen better days.

"Leo," He said, walking in, I told Casper to excuse us, and he left.

Max came to sit on the chair.

"How did this happen?" I asked him, and he shook his head.

"Alia came home with the guy, and I had him investigated. We found nothing. He was an orphan from the north who settled in Hayland in the east.

I later started hearing rumours he belonged to a cult, but I could not prove it. I didn't support the union, and the guy knew it.

They still went ahead without me.

That was four months ago.

This morning, he came to my pack and challenged me. I wasn't ready. The man was peculiar. He had silver on him because I felt a bit weak fighting him. I swear, Leo, that man had silver on him, but it was as if he didn't. I tried to call it to people's attention, but no one believed me because he partially shifted. But I felt the weakness every time he moved close to me. It put him at a great advantage," he said, unable to tell me the rest.

"How are you sure it was silver?" I asked him.

"Every time I moved away from him, I would gain access to my wolf and my strength, but every time he locked me in a grip, my wolf will be silent, and I will be weak. Is that not a silver effect? No one believed me, and that was it for me. He beat me in under ten minutes. It was a disgrace. You know I have been losing pack members. I had roughly three hundred members left. I lost most of them today. Only fifty followed me. The ones that left in the past showed up with this guy. It was as if he had been trying to take my pack and only married Alia to take over the pack legally," He said, and I felt awful for him.

I knew max would say anything to save face, hence the whole silver thing, but I planned on digging into the cult rumour because I had heard of it a few times. I believed it was worth looking into.
