When You're Bound To Love

Chapter 174

SPHO**

I just stared at Sandile in bewilderment. He laughed it off and carried on eating. Sibulele was still staring at him. Me: "Sandile, is this true?" Sands: "No its not." Me: "Sandile." I held his face and looked into his eyes. Sands: "I'm not a demon Spho. You've got to believe me." Me: "I know you're not but you need to tell me the truth. About everything." Sands: "This is the only truth." Sibu: "He swore a Komander promise, he'll never say anything." He walked to his room. Me: "Sweetheart." Sands: "I'm not a demon." Me: "I know, I'm holding your skin and you're not a demon but Sandile are you his source?" He didn't respond. It wasn't even his fault. Me: "Stay here." I went to Sibu in the bedroom and closed the door behind me. Me: "What do we do?" Sibu: "I'm going to him." Me: "And then what?" Sibu: "Confront him Spho! How could he do this to Sandile knowing how weak he is!" Sands: "I can hear you!!" He yelled. Sibu: "Sandile has been taken twice by him. He killed him Spho. What is he trying to do now?" He wore his jacket. Me: "I'm coming with you." Sibu: "No." Me: "Yes. There's some other things I want to clarify with him." We walked out to the lounge. Sands: "Why are you guys making a big deal out of this?" Me: "It is a big deal Sandile. He is not allowed to do this. Stay here, don't move." I followed Sibu to the car and he drove to the house. The nerve Komander has to not even change his residential address. Sibu: "You're too lenient on him." Me: "Who? Kadir?" Sibu: "Sandile. You let him get away with murder and that's why it was so easy for the Unborn to use him." Me: "I do not!" Sibu: "Oh yeah?" Me: "Yes. Sandile is grown. I don't let him get away with anything!" Sibu: "What does Luks think about it?" Me: "He's fine with it." Sibu: "Is that why he breaks into Sandile's house?" Me: "What are you talking about?" Sibu: "Nothing." He parked the car at Kadir's residence. Sibu: "Walk in after me." He walked to the door and entered the house. Kom: "My first born." Sibu: "I'm not here to chill." Kom: "Of course not. You look fired up. You want to scream at me. Who did you bring?" I walked in. Kom: "My complete offspring." He smiled. I can't say it didn't feel good to see him. He looked as dashing as ever. I was near a meltdown. I hate it. Why did he make me have intense daddy issues, when I don't! Kom: "Pregnancy agrees with you." Me: "Sandile told me everything." Kom: "No he didn't. He swore to me, so he naturally can't tell anyone even if he wanted to." He poured himself a red liquid. Kom: "Ask." Me: "What did you make him promise?" Kom: "To protect you. He keeps you safe and helps when things get out of hand. You don't want Babalo near you, so Sandile was the safest bet." Sibu: "What about me!!" Kom: "You left." He took a sip still staring at me. Me: "What did I tell you if you ever hurt him again?" Kom: "I didn't hurt Sandile. He's fine." Me: "You're turning him into your slave!!" Kom: "He's nobody's slave. He just needs to be near you or Lam to be okay. Your presence pulls him away from the danger and the Unborn swallowing him whole." Me: "Make it stop!" Kom: "I really can't. Spho, this is the safest way to do this. The Unborn needs an outlet or else he'll make it very hurtful for you. He will rupture you from the inside. Let him out every once in a while. Sandile isn't getting hurt at all." Me: "Yes but other people are!" Kom: "People who deserve it. Remember Spho, whilst the Unborn King is in your stomach, he obeys your hearts command. Not your mind, your heart. Whatever you feel in your heart, he does it. Can't really blame him. Only once he's born, he belongs to me." "You?" Sibu and I said simultaneously. Kom: "Yes me. You can't raise a full dark King as a Pure Queen and Lakhe is back to human so he is mine." He leaned on the sofa's arm rest and took another sip of his beverage. Me: "He is not yours. The Unborn King is my son and will stay my son." Kom: "Not your rules Spho. You may be queen but it's not allowed, unless you want to sacrifice Lam." My heart stopped. Me: "You're making me choose between my children!?" My voice piqued. Kom: "No. I'm letting you know how it works. You know two different Kings cannot both survive in the same place. I take the Dark King, you keep Lam." Me: "So that you can go do your evil deeds with him!" Kom: "But what did you expect? I have a better chance to reason with him than you." Sibu: "Where is the book?" Kom: "Sandile has it and you're not gonna take it from him." Sibu: "Don't you think it's gonna clash that he protects Spho and is also the source for the Unborn King?" Kom: "Has it clashed?" Sibu: "You didn't think this through!?" Kom: "Well... I did." Sibu: "But?" Kom: "But it's never been done, it's not like I had a manual for this. Your grandfather and I aren't on speaking terms." Sibu: "You're careless. You know that?" Kom: "Don't speak to me like that!" Sibu: "Like what? You are careless! You're just ... I can't believe ..." he paced the living room. Sibu: "You're doing to Spho's kids like you did with us! What if I'd met Spho and we'd had a child? Do you realize how much damage that would have done!" Kom: "It's not damage Sibulele. In breeding is not a foreign concept in our family but I get your point. The only thing on my mind then was to protect you." Sibu: "By separating us?" Kom: "I thought we were over this-" Sibu: "But you're doing it AGAIN!!" Kom: "Both these kids are male, they won't make each other pregnant. They won't even meet. They'll be worlds apart." Me: "I can't do this." I walked out. Actually, no. I walked back in. Me: "Who is Graham?" Kom: "Hm?" Me: "I know you heard me." Kom: "I don't know who Graham is, isn't he your friend? Why are you asking me?" Me: "Fine. You will stay away from my children. That includes Sandile." Kom: "Done. Does it include Lukhanyo?" Me: "How the.." Of course he knew. Kom: "So it's really done with Lakhe? That's sad. When I tore into his soul all I saw was you. Life, I guess." Me: "You were the one to ruin it!!!!!!" Kom: "I did what I thought was best at the time. I'm sorry. It was wrong of me." That I didn't expect. Me: "I keep warning you, the next time it won't come out of my mouth." I walked out to the car. Kom: "She doesn't like me anymore." Sibu: "What the fuck do you expect!" Kom: "I didn't choose to be like this Sibulele." Sibu: "Oh? You didn't have a choice at all?" Kom: "What was I supposed to do? Choose the Pure side when I didn't even know if it exists or what it was? You can hate me all you want Sibulele. But you know this as much as I do, I'm the only one you've got." Sibulele walked out.
