Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 0402 Knowing all lovers who weren't fated bonded that night made it special. It was also called the Love moon.

Seeing how Marcel and Theodore took my secrecy and tried to blame Tamia for it made me decide not to keep things from them again.

"I need to tell you two something before Leo and Devin arrive here," I said, and they were attentive.

Leo and Devin already knew, but I did not want them to be with us in case my friends reacted badly to my confession.

I exhaled and looked at Marcel and Theodore to build up the speaking momentum.

"Tamia and I do not need the blue

moon to bond, but we chose to wait because we wanted to share the moment with the four of you," I confessed, and Marcel laughed. It was the first time I would see him laugh since we told him about his father. I did not know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Congratulations, " Marcel said.

"It is good news," Theodore said with abroad grin, "I am honoured that you too, care about our feelings to wait, but it isn't necessary, Sylvester. Knight and Kaira must be going through a lot right now with you two holding back on each other," Theodore added, and I nodded.

"We can wait another four days," I said.

"You know what this means, right?"

Marcel said, and we waited for him to speak.

"It means there is hope for us to remain with our mates unhindered. It also means nothing would happen if we rejected a fated that comes along.

Sylvester fared well, and he isn't one bit weak or broken. I am sure we will be okay," Marcel said, and Theodore laughed.

"I can't wait to share the news with Linda. She has been worried about fate for a while now. This is indeed good news," Theodore said, and I was happy with how they took it.

I was also glad to get that out of the way.

"When all of this is over, I am going to ask you something, and you will give me an honest answer, Sylvester,"

Theodore said, and there was a bit of mischief in his eyes that made me know it wasn't something I would lose sleep over.

Finally, Devin and Leo walked in, and we told them everything.

"So, where are the babies?" Leo asked about the children he had presumed to be his but were not.

"They are receiving care in the hospital. When Vino comes through, he will decide what he wants to do with his triplets," I said, and Devin looked at me.

"Would you do a sibling test?" He asked me, and I nodded.

Hy = .

I'hat is one of the reasons David and Dominic are in Lucland," he nodded. I did not know if I would want Vino to be

a Volkov, but I did not have power over such things. If my father chose to spread his seed, so be it.

"If Larry has an army, then we would need one," Leo said.

"T'was hoping for a more covert operation. Nothing messy, but something efficient enough to catch the man," I said, and Devin adjusted himself on the seat.

""So, what do you have in mind?" He asked me.

"Shadow guards," I said.

"If the place is protected, the shadow guards would break down his defence silently without his knowing. Our goal is to get in there and take the man without fighting him. I do not want him to die in battle. I would rather he

answers for his crimes and receives a befitting punishment. Also, Amanda claims he has someone locked up in there with him. We should get the person out, too," I said, and Leo frowned.

"Who does he have locked up and why?" Leo asked.

"His fall guy, according to her," I said.

"That sneaky bastard," Devin said.

"Probably knew there was a high possibility he would fail, and so he had several escape plans; too bad he has finally hung himself," Devin added, and we laughed.

"Normally, you shouldn't go on the mission with us, your majesty," Devin pointed out, teasing me, but I

was a hands-on guy. I wasn't the type to sit idly while someone else carried out the task. I
