The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 776

Morning came, and it was time for us to leave for the East. I needed to gather my people and lead them to the West. I wasn't happy that Gezel would fight with us, and I wished I could talk her out of it. Still, I hadn't gotten the chance, nor had I been able to tell Amelia about her mother's decision.

While they carried our luggage out of our room, Amelia and I decided to check on Erik and Jake.

I wanted to see how Jake was before I left.

We got to the lab, and I saw Jake's skin tone improve. Claudia was there, and it looked like she needed to rest. I doubt the woman would. She had been working nonstop with Erik. I hoped Sylvester would award her for her effort because she has blessed our group.

Stephanie was sleeping on the couch, and I did not want to wake the woman. I noticed she had lost some weight and hoped to receive good news soon.

Erik walked up to me. He already knew why I had come to see him. He looked at Amelia beside me and hugged her.

"See you in a couple of days," He said, hugging Amelia, and then he broke the hug and shook my hand.

"I hate to say this, but please do not let her fight. Gezel too. We do not know what we will meet there. She is carrying your child and the future of our clan; she has to survive no matter what happens," He linked me, smiling at me, and I could see the worry in his eyes behind his façade.

"She isn't going to fight. When the time comes, I will send her back to the North to be with Tamia. I just do not want to miss any moment with her. That is why we are heading East. I want to spend some time with my mate," I confessed to Erik through the mind link, and he appreciated my words.

As weird as the man seemed, he cared deeply for everyone.

"How is Jake?" Amelia finally asked, breaking the silence, and Erik nodded.

"Well, he is looking better than he did yesterday. I hope he wakes up soon because I doubt we can continue to watch his arse," Erik joked, and we both chuckled at his words. It was okay to make light of a dire situation.

We had all done our best where Jake was concerned. The rest was left to fate and his desire to live.

I was given boxes of AgK32 to administer to my warriors before I left.

I left the lab, and we headed out. Sylvester and Tamia were there to bid us farewell. Although we knew we would see each other soon, we knew we would miss each other.

Amelia and Linda's hug lingered, and I heard Linda tell Amelia she is returning to join them. It also meant the women knew we won't be taking them to the West. I was grateful because this would make my work easier. We got into the van and headed to the airport. On my way to the airport, I decided to call Max.

"Hello," Max answered on the first ring.

"How are things going there?" I asked him.

"All the alphas are in Mountain with their troops, and we are waiting for you," He replied, and I was happy about his efficiency.

"Thank you, we are on our way," I told Max.

"That is great; I want to ask you about something," Max said, and I was attentive.

"What is this we hear that we will attack the south?" He asked, and I was glad that Sylvester had done his part. By stylishly preparing to attack the South, Yuri was bound to head West.

"I will explain when I get there. Just make sure the troops are divided into two. One should consist of one-quarter of the total numbers we have. A few alphas will be leading them. We are on our way," I told Max.

"What about Alexei? He has to bring his contribution." Max said, and I sighed.

"We will discuss this when I get home. There are things we can't discuss on the phone, Max," I said, and he was silent.

"Very well, Leo. I await your arrival," He said and hung up.
