SHADOWS OF DESTINY - Season 1 Episode 54

 

~Tamia~

Everyone was elated by the news except for Sylvester. I could see he was happy, but he squeezed my

hand gently.

“Thank you, doctor, but why is she ill? Linda is pregnant, and she isn’t ill,” He said, and I could

understand his reaction

to the news.

“People experience pregnancy

differently, but I will still take her blood sample to test for other things. If there is anything, she is already

recovering from it. I will give her a mild sedative to help her relax and sleep it off, but there is no cause

for alarm here. She will be alright when she wakes up; she just needs to rest,

“He said.

“I will administer a mild sedative to help

her rest”, he added.

The doctor administered the medication

and left. Leaving Sylvester, Avery and me

in the bedroom.

My eyes became heavy, and I fell asleep.

I woke up to see Sylvester lying beside me in bed and working on his computer. I groaned, and he

looked at me and smiled.

He put his computer on the nightstand

and kissed my forehead.

“If you were a child, I would have said you were grounded,” He said with a tinge of anger, and I

understood.

His eyes were teary, and he was fighting

his emotions.

“Anything could have happened to you out there, Tamia. Anything. Why would you keep something so

significant from me?” He asked, and I gradually sat up.

“Had I told you I was throwing up and feeling feverish, you would not have

allowed me to go, and I did not trust the council to do your bidding in the west,” I

said, and he bowed his head and then

looked at me.

“How are you feeling now?” He asked and placed his hand gently on my belly.

His touch felt good against my skin, and I wanted his hand to linger.

Kaira was silent because she was

ashamed of what we did and what she

almost allowed to happen. I understood

her shame.

“Don’t do this again. Always tell me what you are going through, Tamia. We will get through it together

no matter how terrible it is,” He said, and I nodded.

“So we will be parents soon,” he said with a broad grin, and I smiled at him.

I felt like shit.

How would I tell him I saw Devin and we made out? How would I tell him he was

my fated, but I rejected him? How?

“Please don’t,” Kaira pleaded with me, afraid.

I understood her fear because making out with Devin and almost allowing him to claim us felt like a

great betrayal.

“How were things over there?” he asked, and I told him everything Alpha Jake told me about the attack.

He took off his shirt and snuggled into bed beside me to hold me.

I felt at peace when he wrapped his arms around me and enveloped me with his scent. I held him

resting my head on his chest, and looked up at him.

“I love you, Sylvester. Please don’t break my heart,” I said in tears, and he frowned. He was surprised

at my sudden mood.

“I can never hurt you, Tamia,” He said and placed my hand on his chest to feel

his heartbeat.

“I cannot live without you.” He said.

“If your fated shows up, what would you do?” I asked, and he sat up gently. I gently sat up, too, and he

looked at me.

“I make my destiny, Tamia, and I choose you and our baby. She would have shown up late. I have

given everything to you, Tamia; I have nothing to give her,” he said, and I bowed my head, knowing

how strong the pull was and how Leo failed.

Devin was a gentleman, unlike Amanda,

who was persistent. Devin respects my

wishes; what if his fated is like Amanda,

persistent?

“What if the pull is so strong and you can’t say no?” I asked him, tears streaming down my face.

“I will prove that my love is stronger than the legendary pull of the mate bond. I will choose you over

Ads by Pubfuture
and over again. You have

nothing to worry about. Soon we will be married and welcome our baby into the world. My fated has no

room in my life,”

he said with conviction.

“Your mother hates me, Sylvester. What if she interferes?” I said, and he shook his

head.

“My mother doesn’t hate you, and she can never make me do anything I do not

want to do,” He said and lifted my hand

and kissed it.

“This is it,” he said, pulling me close to

kiss him.

His lips felt so good on mine, and I opened up to receive the goodness he was giving. Erasing Devin’s

kiss.

I kissed him hungrily, wanting to feel every bit of him, knowing this was it for

1.

My heart was beating fast. A mixture of joy and uncertainty.

He travelled with his lips to my neck and

sucked.

I wanted him to sink his teeth in and seal

the deal.

I wanted to disregard tradition and just go for it. I held his head tightly, and he growled and groaned. He

was fighting Knight, and I did not want him to.

Kaira gave me strength, and I straddled him and opened my robe.

He went for my breasts with his lips, and I looked up, pushing my chest to give him

access.

He worshipped them and paid attention. I felt his bulge, and I wanted him to seal the deal.

He gently flipped our positions and got off the bed, leaving me gasping for air and disappointed.

“You need to rest, Tamia. I want you so

badly that if I go ahead now, I will claim you,” He confessed, and I took off my robe completely.

“I do not care, Sylvester. I am already

yours,” I said, and his eyes went completely dark.

He had entered a battle he would lose because Knight charged back to the bed and kissed me

hungrily; he moved down my body fast and went between my legs.

Mine,” he growled his famous words.

The words that brought me back from the trance.

The words that helped me keep my promise and gave me control.

I welcomed the words and opened wider for him.

He teased my knob with his tongue and then looked at me to be sure I was seeing what he was doing.

He sucked gently, and I moaned. He looked at me again.

“I won’t be able to control myself,” He told me, and I shook my head.

“Then don’t,” I said, and he knelt

between my legs and drove his cock into

1.

He growled and began to pump fast and

hard.

I welcomed it, but a part of me said I was

wrong.

He should know…

He should know, and just like that, my body went cold, and I began to cry.

Sylvester gently pulled out and lifted my face to look at him.

“What is the matter, green eyes?” He said with concern, and my tears fell freely.

“I did something bad, Sylvester, and I am afraid you will hate me for it,” I said, and he froze.

“What did you do, Tamia?” He asked

gently. I knew he was controlling himself.

He stood up from the bed, and I looked at him, afraid.

“What happened?” He said, and my tears fell freely.

“I…I…I…,” I said, stuttering between sobs.

“I saw Devin at the festival,” I said. He clenched his fists, and his hands began to shake. His eyes

darkened instantly, and I could see anger rise in them. There was no going back from this.

“He was my Fated,” I said, and Knight began to growl. I could feel the pressure of his presence.

“I did not know until last night, Sylvester. I swear. I did not know. He said it was

because of Leo’s mark,” I said, rushing

through the words, but his growls

became louder.

“The pull was strong and intoxicating, and we made out,” I confessed, and he roared. I wiped away my

tears.

“He almost claimed me, but I rejected him. I rejected him. It took a lot of effort, but I rejected him,” I said

and looked at

him.

“I had nothing to give him. He accepted because he realised that my heart belonged to you. It was

hard, but he accepted it.” I said and began to weep.

He approached me on the bed, and my heart was pounding from fear. I thought he would do something

crazy, but he hugged me tightly and kissed my neck.

“It’s okay, darling. It’s okay. You didn’t do anything wrong. You did not betray me. You did something

most people are incapable of; you honoured me and kept your promise,” He said and sucked the soft

spot of my neck.

“You have nothing to be ashamed of. You and Kaira have nothing to be ashamed of, ” he said, looking

at me with his black wolf eyes.

“Thank you, Tamia, thank you for coming back to me,” he said, tears

streaming down his face. He was afraid.

“Your sacrifice will not be in vain, Tamia. I promise I will never do anything to make you regret choosing

me instead of

your fated. I promise you.” He said, and I nodded; tears of fear and uncertainty streamed down my

face, and he hugged

me and kissed my neck.

“I am yours, Tamia. My heart, body and

soul. You will never have to share me with

anyone. I will never hurt or betray you. I

will never touch anyone else until I die. It will only be you now and always. Just you, Tamia and no one

else. I love you,” he said and arrested my lips with his.

He laid me down gently on the bed and

gradually used his tongue to leave a trail of pleasure on my skin. Tracing from my

neck to my core. He sucked on my mound

gently, and all the fear I felt was replaced

with pleasure; the load was lifted, and I felt light.

I came immediately, and he placed himself in me and pumped. His eyes were dark, and Kaira took

over.

He pumped and pumped, and I came several times. Even though we weren’t fated, I hoped this was it.

We lay in the bed naked, and Sylvester cracked many jokes about what his

mother did when she returned.

According to him, she was hurt he didn’t come after her. She wanted to go missing, and he would come

and beg her, and then she will make her demands as her

condition to return. When that didn’t happen, she returned and accused him of abandoning her and

choosing me over

her. The woman was just unbelievably petty. Sylvester wanted me to forgive her, but I bore no grudge

against her, to begin with. I had just decided that I would be

careful around her.

Stephanie had said hurtful and mean

things to me. It wasn’t okay. It wasn’t

okay for her to switch and insult my

friends and me because she was hurt. It

wasn’t okay.

I could understand Sylvester’s

willingness to forgive her; she was his mother, but I couldn’t.

After what Jake had told me, I planned on investigating her too.

I knew the woman was hiding something

and was determined to find it out.

“Dominic and Bryce will be tried

tomorrow. Do you think you can join me?

He asked, and I searched his eyes.

“With Stephanie around?” I asked him,

and he laughed.

“She won’t trouble you. She knows what

you did for Dominic..” He said, and I interrupted him.

“I didn’t do it for her. I did it for you and the love of truth. She shouldn’t get it twisted. The things she

said to me still hunts me. Calling me and my friends social climbers and eastern whores..” I

said, and Sylvester touched my hand and kissed it.

“You aren’t any of those things..” he said, and I nodded.

“I know I am none of those things, Sylvester, but it isn’t alright that she calls us names. It isn’t easy

being here. If it weren’t for the love we found with you, Marcel and Theodore, Avery, Linda and me

would not have it easy mentally. It isn’t okay,” I said, and he pulled me close.

“I am sorry about the condition in which you were brought here, Tamia. I will

never take prisoners again. It is a

tradition that I am ready to abolish, but I

will want you with me tomorrow,” He said, and I nodded.

“With pleasure,” I said, and we both smiled.

I knew the trial would be tedious because I suspected the culprit of being in the council. If not, the

entire panel and Vino was too weak and scared to do their job.
