Chapter 466
Tasting All My Mates
466-Finally Found D*ldos âI donât get it. How is she going to fight him?â Maynard argued after we all walked back into the mansion and gathered around in the living room.
âShe will train for it, for sure,â Kellice said, Janet, agreeing with her. I didnât know what to say because if my wolf didnât wake up, then I wouldnât be able to fight Corbin.
The way he looked so alarmed when he heard he was going to be challenged, I knew he would prepare. Corbin wouldnât leave the throne for anything.
âHow much can a human prepare fight a werewolf?â Lazlo grunted, walking around the living room and grunting every two seconds.
âAnd we know we are not the people you think should be here and expressing care, but we do. We do care,â Lazlo stopped walking around just so that he could make deep eye contact with me and let me know.
He knew I would judge him for acting as if he cares.
âEven if you do, I think you two should leave. Why did you two come here, anyway?â I said as I watched Theo silently sitting in the corner and probably thinking about what he could do to help me get Nia back.
Lazlo and Maynard shared a glance before the two sat down to have a deep conversation with me.
âDo you remember when I started changing?â Lazlo asked, looking guilty.
âRight after we signed the marriage papers,â I recalled, and he shook his head.
âI have been bubbling inside for a few weeks prior to that,â he answered while stealing his eyes from me. If I hadnât asked him why he married me, if he had had such a problem with me already, I would have asked him now.
But that conversation took place many times already, so I gave up on that.
âIt all started when somebody started filling our ears with malice for you,â Lazlo said.
âAnd instead of asking me questions or confronting me, you two decided to just punish me,â I said as I nodded.
âI didnât. I was genuinely given the chance to be with you until she turned her back on the idea,â
Maynard interrupted me, trying to clarify his side of the story.
âBut how much did she control you to even do that stuff to me? Look at you now. You are taking a stand while going against her, so why not when I needed your stand?â I asked him, genuinely confused, why Christina played me.
âShe would constantly tell me how much she had done for me. She would threaten me with ending her life, and I would get scared. I didnât want an innocent person to die because of something I did. And I was wrong. I know I messed up, but my feelings were true. for you. I have genuinely craved like crazy for you, Enya!â Maynard whispered in his mouth, his eyebrows drawing down and his heavy breaths becoming more prominent.
âWell, life is all about chances. You cannot expect to achieve big things without making sacrifices.â That comment came from Theo. He was finally done contemplating whatever had kept him occupied.
âI am realizing it now.â Maynard sighed in defeat..
âAnd who filled your ears with malice for me?â I looked at Lazlo, who hadnât raised his face after Maynard intervened.
Taking a deep breath, he lifted his head to say, âChristina!â
Hearing that name come from him was a surprise. I could understand why she didnât want Maynard near me, but why Lazlo?
âWhy would she talk bad about me to you?â I asked, watching others walk closer to Lazlo as they were curious too.
âThat chick always seemed off to me,â Theo shrugged, finally getting up from his seat to take a seat near Lazlo.
âI donât know anymore. She would come to me whenever Enya and the others were too busy and would tell me these weird things with so much proof that I couldnât think outside the web of her lies.â
Lazlo was sounding very down, as he should be.
He heard her and believed her with everything in him. He was the only one to get blamed for his foolery, but that didnât excuse what Christina had been doing.
âAfter Theo exposed her and how she ran out of our mansion, I began to question everything. I was so used to her showing me a path that when she left, I felt clueless. I know I am the one who f*cked up, but the fact that she is still out there while the two of us are here with you makes me believe she will not sit silently,â Lazlo explained why he was so worried she would come for me.
âI donât know about that.â Maynard shook his head.
âYou are still believing in her?â Janet snapped at Maynard, who instantly waved his hands to tell us that was not why he was not worried she would be plotting anything against me.
âI am not taking her side. I just know she is busy elsewhere,â
Maynard explained.
âShe finally found d*ldos. And how to use them?â Theo joked, watching us look at him with serious faces. âNot a fan of d*ldos, I suppose,â he bit his tongue and excused himself.
âHer mom came out of nowhere,â Maynard continued, which puzzled us all.
âHer mom?â I frowned.
âWhy, you thought she was dropped from the sky?â Theo, who suddenly had his screw loose, joked some more until he paused and brought his eyebrows together to show concern. âKellice!â He went from joking with us to calling for her out of the blue.
âIsnât her mother Emelia Martin?â Him taking her full name made us follow his stare and look at Kellice, who nodded with a sad pout. drawn over her lips.
âShe used to be Hazelâs best friend growing up and her foe afterward,â Theo stated the rest, and that was all I needed to know.
Christina never told us anything about the return of her mother. I was curious as to when and how it occurred.
