133 Tamia''s n
~Tamia~
Sylvester''s movements woke me up from sleep. I heard him talking to someone in the closet on the
phone, and I wondered what the matter was.
I must have been asleep for hours.
After winning the votes to be king, all the tension that built up dissipated, leaving me tired and in
need of rest.
I was feeling refreshed, but Kaira could feel Knight''s uneasiness which meant Sylvester had learned
something disturbing or something had gone wrong. I braced myself for the worst and waited for
him toe out.
He finally exited the closet and joined me in the bed. Though he seemed rxed, he felt nervous.
His gestures could not fool me. I felt Knight''s turmoil, and I knew something was wrong. I wondered
what he must have learned that would cause him to behave like this. I looked at his dark eyes and
smiled.
"Your majesty," I teased, and he smiled at me.
"Oh, Tamia," he said, and I knew it was serious because he did not call me green-eyes.
"Amanda was our link to the king," he said, and I sat up in shock.
"borate," I said, and he sighed.
"Ramsey told us everything. Leo was there. How she recruited him, how they used Leo, how they
nned that you and Leo would die. It''s a mess, Tamia, but she nned it all and those babies
aren''t Leo''s. They belong to Jenny''s son because she imed her lover, who is the king, is a
Volkov," he said, and I gasped.
I felt terrible for Leo because he did not deserve that degree of deception.
"Yes, and that is why we would have the Kappa arrest her," he said, and I shook my head.
I knew everyone was angry, and emotions were running high. But we had to be smart about it.
I had someone watching her quite alright, and that meant our cause wasn''t hopeless, and she had
not gotten away, but we had to be wise.
"I do not think that is wise. Let her believe she has fooled all of us and gotten away with it. Let us
watch her so she can lead us to the king. She is still a pawn in this. Whether she is his bitch or not,
it doesn''t matter. she is receable, but if we catch him, we will end the threat," I told him, and he
nodded, understanding my point of view.
"So you think we should just watch her?" he asked, and I nodded.
"Yes. She will not go to him immediately because we have her father in our custody. We have to
make her believe that we have lost her and she is free. She is bound to visit the king, and then we
will catch them. Meanwhile, pull all your resources together; let''s find that bastard," I said.
"What if..." he began, and I interrupted him.
"If we had held her here, she wouldn''t give him up, and she won''t lead us to him. He won''te for
her either. The bastard seems selfish and wicked to allow his pregnant mate to y a dangerous
game.
He left the woman he imed to love with another man. Leo fucked her day and night, Sylvester.
While I was there, they were like rabbits. No man that genuinely loves a woman would use her like
that. To the so-called king, she is a tool and a means to an end," I said, and he frowned.
"He imed her, Tamia, and he got her pregnant," he said, and I nodded.
"She wanted him to im her, so he gave her what she wanted. He knew she would carry out the
task diligently if he possessed her heart. If he treated her like shit, she would have betrayed him to
Leo, but she didn''t because she had the illusion that he loved her and they would end up together.
That is very dangerous thinking.
He doesn''t care about her or the babies in her womb. She is just another tool. If we held her, she
won''t give him up because of love, and he won''te for her, but allowing her to be free would
make her unwillingly lead us to him.
Just wait and see. Let''s focus on your crowning and our wedding. Once Amanda leads us to the
bastard, we will catch him.
Let us maintain the status quo and continue to drill the prisoners. Let us keep Amanda''s
involvement out of it. We do not need to tell the prisoners what we know.
Tell all the people that know of Amanda''s involvement to keep it quiet. Word must not get out that
we know. I want her to be free. I want to fool her the way she fooled us.
She might even reach out to Leo to determine if he knows anything; he mustn''t let her know. He
must maintain his behaviour. Pretend Ramsey did not give her up.
We need to treat her the way she treated all of us. Fool her. She is our only viable lead to the
bastard king. We have to catch him through her. It would be sweet justice," I said, beaming at him.
I needed him to rx. I was worried internally, but I needed my mate to be sharp. He sighed with
relief and nodded.
"She gave Annika a silver dust capsule. The girl is in ama," he added, and I gasped.
I remembered the hands Amanda kept in her pocket and how she rushed to hold Annika''s hand
through the bars. That was when she must have handed it to her.
I was angry at Amanda that she would go as far as encouraging her cousin to kill herself for her
selfish benefit.
Amanda would suffer and die a slow and painful death. I know I will enjoy it because finding out she
never cared for Leo broke my heart.
She ruined my marriage and my friendship for selfish reasons. I hated her. Poor Leo is alone now
because of her. She would die a very painful death, and I would dish out the pain.
"They should feed her milk and tea tree oil. She woulde through in a day or two. If the silver
caused damage, it would take a few weeks for her system to repair fully, and she would be ready for
questioning.
They should use a feeding tube." I said, knowing the remedy of what she took.
Silver dust belonged to the east. The bitch knew the north did not understand how the poison
worked.
"Once she is alright, I will drill her about her secret conversation with Amanda. Amanda must have
wanted her dead for a reason. Annika knows something, and I want to find out what it is." I said, and
he nodded.
"Thank you for making sense of all this, Tamia. I was confused and mad. I will reach out to everyone
to act normal, but I won''t tell anyone we have eyes on the bitch." He said, and I nodded.
He went to make some phone calls while I went to the bathroom to freshen up.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
It wasn''t long before I stepped into the shower when Sylvester joined me. He held me under the
water from behind, and I giggled.
I wasn''t expecting he would be in the state of mind to make love to me, but his hardness said
otherwise.
I turned to look at him, and he bent to kiss my lips. He lifted me up, and I wrapped my legs around
him.
Kissing me, he ced himself inside me and began to pump. I liked it.
I knew we couldn''t do this soon because of my growing bump, so I enjoyed it.
He travelled with his kisses to the sweet spot on my neck, and I looked up with my eyes shut to
enjoy the feeling. I wanted him to im me so severely, and Kaira wanted it too.
Sylvester carried me out of the shower into the bedroom andid me on the bed to continue what
he had started in the shower.
Laying spent on the bed, he turned to look at me.
"Guess what?" he said, and I was attentive.
"Devin hooked up with Susan," He said, and I gasped and then smiled.
"Wow!" I said because I did not see thating at all.
"How did you find out?" I asked him, and he smiled.
"After hearing what Amanda did to Leo, and knowing Niks is involved and that he is atrge,
Devin became worried that Susan might be a part of it too and might be ying him just like
Amanda yed Leo. You needed to see him; he was a confused mess," Sylvester said, and I
frowned.
"That is serious," I said, and Sylvester nodded.
"Apparently, she told him my father was discussing something confidential with her uncle when she
walked in on them. My father thought she heard the discussion, and because of that, her uncle
offered to take her away to spare her life.
Also, she did not return because since my father must have done that to her, my mother might do
the same. It was weird, but I know my father has killed people for less, so it is usible that she had
to follow Glenda''s father to the south to avoid my father''s wrath.
When we catch Niks, I want to find out what he was discussing with my father that made him
send Susan away. It must be very serious." he said, and I had a theory.
"What if it was his bastard? What if Niks knew of the bastard or what transpired between him and
Jenny. Looking at everything, Jenny was your father''s darkest secret. What he did with that woman
was enough for him to lose face. He had to somehow salvage himself.
He did not want people to know of her. He flirted with many women but kept Jenny a secret
because something bad might havee out of it. So he might have been discussing either Jenny
or her son with Niks and thought Susan heard," I said and shook my head after thinking of my
theory and realising I had nothing to support it with.
"I might also be wrong; she might have lied about the reason. I guess we will never know until we
catch Niks," I said, and he nodded.
"Alpha Ramsey told me that the fake king has a very powerful person behind him." He said, which
made it more interesting because if that was the case, then this bastard was not the one at the top,
but a means to an end.
"We need to catch the guy to know what is really happening here," I said, not wanting to overthink
the situation.
"Let us follow the n and see what happens from there. Your inauguration is in five days. Let us
rest so you can look sharp that day. I can''t wait for you to be crowned," I said, and he smiled and
touched my nose
"And you will be queen a week after the inauguration," he pointed out, and I beamed at him. I had
butterflies thinking of my uing wedding and iming. I could not wait to bepletely joined to
Sylvester. I looked forward to it.
We remained in bed in each other''s arms until we finally fell asleep.
