The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 94

"Who is pregnant?" he asked me, and I looked at Linda, who looked away. I knew she was mad at me, but someone had to share the good news.

Theodore was stunned, and then he smiled and began to laugh.

"Congratulations," Marcel told him, and he accepted.

"Congratulations," Sylvester said, genuinely happy for him, and he accepted, pulled Linda close and kissed her neck.

"You should have told me. Now I know why you have been moody," He said and kissed her more, tickling her in the process.

She tried to pretend to be angry but soon started giggling, and just like that, they were back together.

The dinner went in high spirits, and Theodore could not take his hands off Linda; as things were, it was clear there would be three weddings during the blue moon.

I wore a backless blue velvet gown covered with Swarovski crystals. It was beautiful, and I would have loved to wear it to Vino's dinner, but Sylvester wanted me to wear it for our engagement dinner.

He bought me a palladium jewellery set with internally flawless diamonds on them.

"Shall we?" he said in his white shirt and well-tailored black pants. He looked handsome, and his hair was packed in a tiny bun at the back of his head. He looked sexy, and I wanted him, but I had to be patient because we had guests waiting for us.

We entered the dance room together, and the place went quiet.

People were stunned, and I could see men looking at me lustfully.

"She's beautiful," I heard some guests whisper, and I giggled internally. Dominic was there, and for the first time, he had nothing but amusement in his eyes.

Sylvester led me to where we were to sit, and the evening began.

Stephanie had promised to take care of the entertainment for the evening, and she did a great job.

The engagement was officially announced, and people congratulated us individually.

I met all the northern and western Alphas along with their lunas.

They paid their respects.

The women were a bit envious of me, and I wasn't bothered.

I would be jealous of me too.

Losing out of love in the past and finding greater love was a thing of envy. My life was a dream to the women, and I unconsciously placed my hand on my lower belly, praying that my joy would be complete soon.

Sylvester and I danced most of the evening, and he had eyes only for me. Theodore never left Linda's side, and he showered her with love. He also introduced her to some of his family members and his mother.

Marcel's family attended, too, and they took to Avery quickly; Avery had that effect on everyone.

There were some people who were obviously against my engagement, like Larry from the council, Dominic, Glenda and a few alphas, but they were a minority, and I did not care, really. As long as Sylvester loved me, their emotions and opinions were irrelevant.

Vino congratulated us and used the time to remind us to come to his dinner party.

The guy was charming, and I somehow believed the council was giving him a hard time because he was the youngest.

I studied everyone at the party and noticed Dominic was trying to be friends with Vino at all costs.

Knowing his ambition to overthrow his brother as wolf lord, I wasn't surprised, and I could see Stephanie giving him a look of disapproval.

Seeing Stephanie by herself, I pleaded with Sylvester to dance with her. He obliged, and she was happy when he led her to the dancefloor.

She loved her son dearly, and I could see she was delighted that he was pleased.

"Congratulations," Dominic said to me, and I cringed.

"Would you like to dance, future sister-in-law?" he said, and I smiled and declined politely.

"Don't be too confident, Tamia. Things can change suddenly, and you will be left high and dry. I believe your experience with Leonardo Albert has taught you that by now," He said, intending to spoil my mood, and I smiled at him.

"Trust me, I never take things to heart. I simply dust myself and move on; as you can see, Sylvester and I are moving strong," I said, and he got upset and walked away.

I watched Sylvester dance with his mother, and prayed that what we have lasts because I doubted I could take the same blow twice.
