The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 532

I guess she did not get the reaction that she wanted.

I didn't have to think much when Leah walked to me.

"Snake," she said quietly, smiling, and I returned the smile.

"And so we meet again," I said, and she had nothing but rage in her eyes.

"Seeing you like this is amazing after you told me I wouldn't make the cut. You did not realise back then that I had already made the cut. I think it is best you try elsewhere or, better still, stop aiming above your station. You are too old for this, Leah," I said, and all she did was growl.

"This isn't over yet, Amelia. Leo will be mine," she said, and I wanted to laugh because I could see how delusional she was. It was as if she thrived on lying to herself.

"Good luck with that," I said, and before she could speak, Linda approached us.

"Still looking for trouble, Leah?" Linda asked, coming to my aid, and Leah bowed her head respectfully.

"Not at all, Lady Orlov," She said, and Linda smiled.

"Leo is taken, Leah; move on. Devin and Vino are off-limits too. Find another place to dig from," she said, leading me away from Leah.

"What's with her?" Linda said, and I laughed.

"Could not handle rejection," I replied, and Linda laughed.

"Trust me, she can," Linda said.

"Rejection is her best friend; she has had so much experience that she fails to recognise it whenever she sees it anymore," Linda said, laughing, and I wondered what she meant by it.

"What do you mean by that?" I asked, and she looked at me and then moved close to whisper.

She has been rejected by Sylvester, Marcel, Theo, Dominic, and now Leo. The Claymans and Rivers are vicious social climbers. Beware of them," she said, and we both giggled.

Leo later joined me, and he looked exhausted.

He remained at my side for the rest of the evening and couldn't keep his hands off me.

He introduced me to people as his mate, and I was welcomed warmly. Some asked us about the claiming and if we were waiting for the blue moon ceremony like the King and queen did, which wasn't far away, but Leo expertly avoided giving a straight answer, and they wished us the best.

It was time to leave the Clayman's mansion. Joan requested to speak to Leo privately, and he obliged.

I did not know what she wanted, but I knew Leo would tell me if it concerned us.

Joan seemed afraid when Leo left her, and I did not need to guess that Leo had threatened the woman.

It made me smile innocently at Leah, who was on the verge of tears but fighting it from falling.

Maybe she cared for Leo, but he was mine, and I did not plan on losing him or sharing.

His promises to me remained in my heart, and I would hold him to them.

We left and got into the limo.

We were tired and needed to rest. Avery was the first to fall asleep in the Limo, and Marcel held her.

We had driven for nearly forty minutes when our Limo suddenly skidded off the road and crashed into something hard, breaking windows and causing us to bang our heads on the hard surfaces inside the Limo.

I had never been in a car crash before, but Aurora took over, so I did not blackout...

It all happened fast; none of us saw what was going on. One minute we were in the car, and the next, we had driven off the road and crashed.

The moment everything stopped, Aurora looked around, and I saw Avery bleeding from her head. I knew she would be okay because she was a wolf.

"Silver, do not come out!" Someone yelled outside, and then he screamed. It was one of the men driving us.

We were yet to figure out what to do.

Linda was trying to wake Avery, and Theo, Leo, and Marcel were gearing up for a fight when a wolf ripped open the door of the car.

It was a half-shifted wolf with moon eyes. It was huge with grey fur, and it growled at us.

I could feel the silver and knew none of the men there could fight under these conditions.

Theo, Marcel, and Leo jumped out and began to fight the wolf. They did not have access to their wolves but held their ground.
