Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

466-Finally Found D*ldos

“I don’t get it. How is she going to fight him?” Maynard argued after we all walked back into the mansion and

gathered around in the living room.

“She will train for it, for sure,” Kellice said, Janet, agreeing with her. I didn’t know what to say because if my wolf

didn’t wake up, then I wouldn’t 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

wouldn’t leave the throne for anything.

“How much can a human prepare fight a werewolf?” Lazlo grunted, walking around the living room and grunting

every two seconds.

“And we know we are not the people you think should be here and expressing care, but we do. We do care,” 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.

“Even if you do, I think you two should leave. Why did you two come here, anyway?” 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.

“Do you remember when I started changing?” Lazlo asked, looking guilty.

“Right after we signed the marriage papers,” I recalled, and he shook his head.

“I have been bubbling inside for a few weeks prior to that,” he

answered while stealing his eyes from me. If I hadn’t 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.

“It all started when somebody started filling our ears with malice for you,” Lazlo said.

“And instead of asking me questions or confronting me, you two decided to just punish me,” I said as I nodded.

“I didn’t. I was genuinely given the chance to be with you until she turned her back on the idea,” Maynard

interrupted me, trying to clarify his side of the story.

“But 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?” I asked him, genuinely confused, why Christina played me.

“She 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 didn’t 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!” Maynard

whispered in his mouth, his eyebrows drawing down and his heavy breaths becoming more prominent.

“Well, life is all about chances. You cannot expect to achieve big things without making sacrifices.” That comment

came from Theo. He was finally done contemplating whatever had kept him occupied.

“I am realizing it now.” Maynard sighed in defeat..

“And who filled your ears with malice for me?” I looked at Lazlo, who hadn’t raised his face after Maynard

intervened.

Taking a deep breath, he lifted his head to say, “Christina!”

Hearing that name come from him was a surprise. I could understand why she didn’t want Maynard near me, but

why Lazlo?

“Why would she talk bad about me to you?” I asked, watching others walk closer to Lazlo as they were curious too.

“That chick always seemed off to me,” Theo shrugged, finally getting up from his seat to take a seat near Lazlo.

“I don’t 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 couldn’t think outside the web of her lies.” 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

didn’t excuse what Christina had been doing.

“After 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,” Lazlo explained why he

was so worried she would come for me.

“I don’t know about that.” Maynard shook his head.

“You are still believing in her?” 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.

“I am not taking her side. I just know she is busy elsewhere,”

Maynard explained.

“She finally found d*ldos. And how to use them?” Theo joked, watching us look at him with serious faces. “Not a fan

of d*ldos, I suppose,” he bit his tongue and excused himself.

“Her mom came out of nowhere,” Maynard continued, which puzzled us all.

“Her mom?” I frowned.

“Why, you thought she was dropped from the sky?” Theo, who suddenly had his screw loose, joked some more until

he paused and brought his eyebrows together to show concern. “Kellice!” He went from joking with us to calling for

her out of the blue.

“Isn’t her mother Emelia Martin?” Him taking her full name made us follow his stare and look at Kellice, who

nodded with a sad pout. drawn over her lips.

“She used to be Hazel’s best friend growing up and her foe

afterward,” 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.
