The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 663

I wanted to return to my room and sleep. This could wait for some other time.

Max and Kyle followed Andrew and Clay back to the bungalow. I did not miss that they were quiet all through. I guess they, too, weren't happy about losing the bet. Cooking was scary if you didn't know your way about the kitchen. It was going to be a long week.

"I guess we won't know the truth about the Sullivans until we experience them, but I agree with Dominic that we should be careful," I said and saw Devin wasn't finding anything we said funny.

I did not blame him.

Nicolas humiliated him and ran him out of his region with his actions. Nicolas might be dead now, but what he put in place for Yuri had diligently served Yuri's purpose.

We might not discuss it, but we all knew the South had fallen. I just hoped Erik had a solution that would help us, or I doubt Susan's relationship with Devin will be great knowing what he knows now.

Even if he chooses to love her through it, memories would still get in the way.

I pulled Amelia to me and led her towards the stairs so we could retire to our bedroom. My mother said good night, and we responded.

I knew tomorrow would be a long day because the Sullivans would arrive, but I pray we get through it peacefully without event.

"Alpha, our Nitric acid plant has gone up in flames," I heard Casper's voice, and I was midway up the stairs when I cursed. I cursed so loud that everyone stopped to look at me.

"What is the matter?" My father asked, and I did not know I was shaking with rage. I balled my fist on my side and growled with anger. I felt Amelia step back. I was behaving like a madman.

"I just wanted to rest, for fucks sake!" I growled.

The pressure was getting to me for the first time.

I wondered why I couldn't catch a break, sleep and have peace. Why the events had to be a chain of reactions? Why couldn't they wait to bring it until tomorrow?

"Alpha, kappa Tom brought me a note from the arsonist." I heard Casper in my head, and Vino looked at me.

"Is everything all right, Leo?" he asked, and I tried to calm my rage down.

"Handle the site. I will join you tomorrow after I have rested. There is nothing we can do about the destruction. Bring the note in the morning," I linked Casper, knowing I would not function properly if I were to go there now. I was tired and angry; I could only do so much mentally in this condition.

"What happened?" Amelia said and touched my hand.

My claws had grown out, and I did not know it.

The moment she touched my hands, I retracted my claws so I did not hurt her.

"The Nitric Acid plant was set ablaze, and the perpetrators left a note," I said, and Dominic and Vino exclaimed.

"How would they know to torch that place?" Dominic added.

"Someone told them of the outcome of the fight and used their spies or men in the east to torch the place,'" I said, knowing exactly what happened.

It meant one or two people got away, or we had an informant in the east. It couldn't be one of us. It had to be my people or my men. But someone surviving the fight was a more plausible explanation.

"Someone survived and might have reported how we were able to counter the silver dust," I said, and Dominic was enraged.

"If I catch this person, I won't ask questions. I will make sure they die most painfully," Devin said.

"How would they have known where the plant was to torch it? It wasn't someone that escaped the fight that did this, Leo, someone in this pack who communicates with them did this. Preferably one of your men because the pack members did not know we took nitric acid with us. It was sudden. The spies in Mountain did not know we sprayed Nitric acid to counter the dust. Only your men know it. Only your men and us." My father said, making a lot of sense, and I did not want to start troubling my head about it. I felt a headache coming and just turned around to complete the climb.

"We will deal with it tomorrow," I said to everyone who cared to listen while Amelia and I headed to our bedroom. I hoped sleep would not elude me tonight because I needed it badly to wake up active tomorrow.
