The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 589

"Thank you," Amelia said, and Devin frowned at me.

"Luna, that quick? couldn't wait for the bluemoon?" He asked, and I laughed.

"Amelia and I are fated," l said, and Devin was surprised. He was stunned for a bit and then paused.

"You are one lucky man," he finally said, congratulating me, and I nodded and smiled.

While we spoke, Amelia got up, and I wondered what she wanted to do.

"It is almost dinner. I want to cook something for us," Amelia said, and Susan beamed at her.

"I would love to help out in the kitchen. Hanging out with someone that can cook would help improve my skills. May I join you?" Susan asked quickly, and Amelia smiled and nodded.

Usually, I would join her, but it seemed Devin had something important to discuss with me that could not wait.

We watched our mates leave the lounge and head to the kitchen. The moment they left, I looked at Devin, and he sighed and sank into the chair, relaxing his back on the backrest, looking tired.

"What is going on?" I asked him, and he sighed.

"I am in trouble, Leo," he said and handed me a sheet of paper.

I opened it to read what it contained.

"Devin Corrigan, this is just an example of what will happen in the south if you choose to defy us. We have no issues with the people, but all ruling Alphas in the south must obey our orders," It read, and I was in shock. These fuckers were trying to take over the entire south.

"What do you plan on doing with this?" I asked him, and he bowed his head.

"I do not know, Leo. Did you receive something like this when Brent was overrun?" he asked, and I shook my head, but then again, Kyle wasn't defiant. He obeyed and fled with his people.

"What changed?" he asked me, and I could not answer the question.

"What did Alexei tell you precisely that made you trust him?" he said, and I did not say I trusted the guy; I only said I believed him. Those were two separate things.

I sighed and told him all Alexei had told him, and Devin was in shock. He was so stunned that he was sweating even though the lounge was cool.

"Leo, we are fucked!" he said, and I knew the feeling.

I had those words dancing in my head.

None of us stood a chance against these people. A few might have been all right, but an army was impossible to defeat.

After fighting them in the north, I knew we were finished.

Had Amelia not been there, we would have died. They would have just left us to die with silver in our system.

"What is Sylvester saying about this? Because this is his problem too," Devin asked, and I sighed.

"We are in the same predicament, but he is coming here tomorrow," I said, and Devin shook his head.

"His presence won't fix anything," Devin stated, and I knew his fear. Anyone seeing what those things could do would be afraid.

Kyle was lucky he did not put his ego above his pack members. He would have ended up like Michael.

"We need a plan fast," Devin said, and I knew he was in the right even though he sounded agitated.

My phone buzzed, and I took it out to answer.

It was Alexei.

"Alexei," I said, and Devin looked up curiously and eagerly.

If Devin had his way, he might have taken the phone from me to speak to Alexei.

"Andrew and I are on our way to you. Clay is also with us, and he would like to meet Amelia. I hope it is okay with you?" he said, and I knew Amelia would be more than happy to meet her brother.

"I do not have a say in that, and you know she would want to meet him. So it is fine," I said, and I heard him chuckle.

"I asked Andrew about the south, and a lot is happening. I do not think it is wise for alpha Corrigan to antagonise them. They plan on taking it. It is as if they want Sylvester to know of their existence. I can't explain it. Andrew said it, but you should hear it from him directly." He said, and I paused.

"I will also advise you to keep calm so we can devise a plan after you have heard all he has to say. It seems we are dealing with two factions. One more forceful than the other," he said, and that wasn't good news, but I maintained my calm because Devin was freaking out already, and he did not have the phone to ears. This update would take him off the bend.

"I will be expecting all of you," I said calmly and hung up.

Devin looked at me with concern, and I smiled.

"Alexei is on his way with his brother and cousin. I believe they would explain the incident in the south better." I told him, and he nodded.

"You need to relax, Devin," I said, and he sighed.

"You didn't see what I saw, Leo. Those people were brutal. What concerns me is that it won't be a fair fight. Fighting them will be like lambs going to the slaughter. They have an unfair advantage, those bastards. Their existence alone is an abomination. No one should have that much power," He said, and I growled at him.

"Well, your mate exclusive," he added quickly, sipping his drink. Knowing whatever Alexei had to say wouldn't make it better, I braced myself for Devin's reaction.
