60 Lily And Her Scorn


    ~Sylvester~


    I could not believe what Tamia had just told me about Lily.


    I was so mad that I knew Knight could emerge.


    I looked at my mate, and she did not seem like she was joking.


    From the look in her green eyes, it took a lot of effort for her to tell me what she had just divulged.


    I raised my hand, patted her head gently, and then kissed her lips. It was more to calm myself down


    than to tell her I was okay.


    I knew I needed to be calm to handle the matter.


    Lily was a big problem. If she was betraying me, then I was in trouble because she knew of my


    investigations, and she was helping me with one of them.


    What if she was giving out the information to someone else?


    I had always suspected I couldn''t trust her, but when she came, she was innocent-looking, and I


    thought I could have the younger sister I never had.


    I revoked her privileges when I heard all the awful things she did to the women in the harem.


    I did not want to jump to conclusions, but I wanted to get up and go and find out the truth.


    I was about to get up when Tamia stopped me with her hand.


    "I have not finished talking to you, darling. Please be calm. I hope there is a rational exnation for


    what I heard and saw," She said, and I searched her eyes, my soul pleading, hoping that whatever


    she needed to tell me next would be easy to digest.


    "Here goes," She said and sighed.


    "After the incident with Lily, I bumped into your mother." She said, and I held my tongue. I did not


    want to say anything that would change the topic.


    " She was crying, and she requested to speak to me immediately. Of course, I went to see Avery


    and then returned to your mother''s room." She said and squeezed my arm.


    "Your mother exined why she left the estate in a hurry that day Dominic was arrested, and what


    she went to do," she said.


    "ording to her, your father had a fated called Lady Alissa Pavlishchev," She continued, and I


    eximed. Tamia just nodded gradually and continued what she was saying.


    "Your father epted his fated and made your mother share. She did not have you then, and when


    the woman was pregnant, your mother left with Dominic. Things happened, and your mother was


    asked to return to care for her. All the while, he tried to divorce your mother, but her family was too


    important for him to divorce her sessfully, so he started conquering the council families and the


    west. He wanted to own the world and be powerful enough to overthrow the council and marry this


    woman. ording to your mother, the woman was evil and did many mean things. Eventually, she


    died giving birth to her son. This was relieving to your mother, but that was the beginning of your


    father growing his harem and getting involved with the women in the harem. He only went for


    women of western descent because they reminded him of his fated. Your father realised the boy


    was an Alpha, so he tried to get your mother to take care of the baby, but she said no, so he sent


    the boy to be cared for. She got pregnant with you, and everything became rosy after she gave birth


    to you, and he discovered you were an Alpha too." She said and searched my eyes for emotions,


    but I made sure there was nothing in them so she would have the confidence to tell me the rest.


    "When your mother left, it wasn''t an act of defiance, but to find David Pavlishchev, your half-brother,


    because she believed he might be the culprit. He has so much to gain if anything happens to either


    of you," she said, and I knew she was right.


    "Did my mother tell you hisst known location?" I asked, and she shook her head.


    "Very well, I will handle it," I said, and she smiled.


    Sheid down a bit, and I held her in bed until she fell asleep.


    It was time to go to the only part of the mansion I never visit. The Harem. I linked Theodore to meet


    me there with two women from my staff.


    I kept my anger under control and moved swiftly.


    When I got to themon hall of the harem, the entire ce was silent. I had never visited there


    since the women had been brought. Thest I was there was when we were actively involved with


    the former women in the harem before I let all of them go.


    Marcel, Theodore and I threw orgies there and partied all night long. Thinking of the life I led back


    then; I was ashamed of myself and grateful that Tamia brought meaning and love back into my life


    because Susan left with everything, and I was nothing but an empty shell.


    Most of thedies were looking at me seductively, and I ignored them. My eyes searched and found


    Lily, who smiled at me.


    I motioned her toe to me, and she approached eagerly.


    "Take me to your bedroom," I said, and I heard some women gasp. I knew what they were thinking,


    but I did not owe anyone any exnation.


    We waited for Theodore to join us before leaving. I could see the giddiness in Lily''s eyes, and I


    remained silent.


    "I hope Luna Tamia won''t be mad about this Alpha. I do not want to anger luna," She said with a sly


    tone, and I wanted to hit her, but I controlled myself. If what Tamia said checked out, she would


    have betrayed me beyond repair. I was holding my temper.


    "What is going on?" Theodore linked me.


    "Be attentive," was all I could manage, and he was silent.


    We got to Lily''s room which she shared with two other girls, and I entered.


    The room was beautifully furnished, and three beds were ced in it. Beside each bed was a vanity


    table. It looked like a luxurious hostel, which was the point, and Lilly stood with her head bowed.


    I knew what she was thinking, and she began to undo her tunic to confirm my suspicion. I could feel


    her joy and expectation. I had never given her the sign that I wanted anything sensual with her, but I


    knew it was a fantasy in her head, and it almost cost me my rtionship with Tamia.


    "Keep your clothes on," I ordered quietly. She looked confused but nodded.


    "I am at your service, Alpha," She said with her head bowed.


    "Where is your bed?" I asked, and she eagerly pointed to the bed close to the wall. I linked the


    women that came with us to search through her things.


    Lily became apprehensive immediately.


    "What is going on, Alpha?" She said, looking worried.


    "Hold her, Theodore," I told my Gamma, and he did as I had said.


    "Where is the phone, Lily?" I asked her and her eyes widened.


    "Do not bother lying because people told me you have one. Where did you put it?" I asked her, and


    she bowed her head and began to sob.


    "Where is it!" I yelled, feeling my anger bubbling to the surface at the realisation that there was


    indeed a phone and Tamia was right.


    "Inside the mattress under my bed," She confessed. The women lifted her mattress, and there the


    phone was.


    They brought it to me, and it had no number and no messages, but the call log had an anonymous


    caller on it. The person was wise to hide their caller identity when calling.


    "How did you get this?" I asked her calmly, and she sobbed. I tried to hold my temper because I


    knew I could kill her.


    "What have you given them?" I asked her, and she continued to cry.


    "Answer me!" I yelled with my authority, and she shook.


    She struggled and broke away from Theodore and went on her knees.


    "I am sorry, Alpha. I am sorry. They promised I would go home but threatened they would wipe my


    family out if I did notply," she said without answering my question.


    "Do not test my patience, Lily. What did you give them, and who were you speaking to?" I asked


    her, and she began to sob.


    "They did not give me a name. Sometimes it was a woman and sometimes a man," She said, and I


    grabbed her neck and squeezed.


    "What did you give them?" I asked, angry.


    "Sylvester?" I heard Tamia''s voice in my head, and I cursed under my breath because I wasn''t


    expecting her to be awake.


    "Sylvester?" I heard her voice again, and I released Lilly''s neck.


    "Yes, darling, I am in Lily''s room; you are right," I said, and she did not reply. I knew she was on her


    way.


    "What did you give them?


    "Banking details, signatures, royal seals, envelopes, and I ced a backdoor on yourputer to


    help them monitor what you were doing," She said quickly, and I pped her.


    She fell to the ground. I was enraged.


    "You practically helped facilitate the treason against me, you bitch!!" I said, and Inded another


    p.


    "Do you know what you have done!" I yelled, and she remained on the ground. Just then, Tamia


    burst in, out of breath and barefooted. She must have run to where I was.


    "Why did you run?" I scolded her, afraid because of her condition. Our baby meant everything to


    me, and I did not like her running.


    "What happened?" She said, and I bowed my head. Lilly was crying, her nose bleeding.


    "It was Lilly that helped facilitate the treasonous moves. She exposed me to them, Tamia. Bugged


    myputer, gave them my signature, my seal..." I said and wanted to send another p when


    Tamia stopped me.


    "Lilly," Tamia said, standing between me and the treacherous bitch.


    "Why did you do it?" she asked, and Lily could not stop crying.


    "Your actions would have cost Dominic his life or made Sylvester lose his lordship. You could have


    caused a war. Why did you do it?" Tamia asked, sounding pained.


    "Because I am tired of being here all by myself. They promised me freedom, and I wanted it badly.


    Since he did not want me and would never see me, I chose to take my chances..." She said, and


    Tamia pped her before she couldplete her sentence.


    "That is the most stupid excuse I have ever heard!" Tamia said.


    "Do you think life is all about sex!" Tamia yelled at her angrily.


    "If you loved him, you wouldn''t have done this. We can never harm the people we love this way. I


    thought you would have a good excuse, but you disappointed me," Tamia growled.


    "The East and South hate him, and part of the west is wary of him because of this. Do you know the


    extent of the damage you helped our enemies cause? What was his crime? Making usfortable


    when we were all supposed to benguishing in a cell because that is what happens to war


    prisoners," she said. I pulled her to my body by the waist to stop her from saying those words


    because I did not want her to refer to herself as a prisoner.

    "Please, Tamia," I said, and she shook her.


    "No, Sylvester. Sometimes people have to hear the truth as it is. When we were dragged to the


    north, I thought I would be a ve. Only for me to be pampered and cared for even more so than I


    was back home, and I know the same is for you, Lily. How dare you feel entitled? How dare you!"


    Tamia said, angry, and I could feel Kaira emerging.


    "You have exposed us to great danger! Where are your puppeteers now? They won''t save you from


    what I will do to you, Lily. They won''t save you," Tamia said, and Lilly looked at her.


    Tamia lifted her chin while Lilly remained on her knees.


    "Tell me how you got recruited, and I will make it easy," She said, and Lily''s eyes danced with fear.


    Tamia pped her impatiently.


    "I do not have all day, Lilly. Tell me now!" She said. That was when I realised why every Alpha


    needed a Luna.


    "There... is... there is an uprising group in the north, and they are recruiting members. I do not know


    where their headquarters is or how they meet. It was a former Luna that is in service that recruited


    me eight months ago. I refused to help, but when they threatened to wipe out my family, I decided to


    help them," She said, and Tamiaughed.


    "You expect me to believe that bullshit?" Tamia said and pped Lily again.


    "They did not need to threaten you for your cooperation, Lily. Sylvester just had to get with me to


    make you snap and want to bring his downfall, you scornful bitch! What is your handler''s name?"


    Tamia asked her.


    "Sofia Malek," She said, and Tamia stepped back, allowing the men to carry her away.


    "Guard her and make sure no harmes to her. She is mine" She ordered them, and they looked


    at me. I nodded, letting them know they were to follow her orders.


    The situation with Lily had blown this thing wide, but I was d we now had a name. Sofia was a


    luna that worked in the kitchen for the harem.
