Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

188-Another Cheater

Lazlo’s POV:

We had to leave with Mr. Tripper to get some work done. Maynard had been super distracted and I

could tell why. He was calming Keith at one point and contacting Christina on the other hand. I don’t

even know how and when he got so attached to that girl.

“Christina! Please give me a chance to explain,” I heard him leave another voice note for her. I never

saw him beg Énya like that. Not even when he was exposed for breaking her heart. He was pretty

stubborn with Enya.

I was right!

He only pursued Enya because of us. He would have not paid attention to her if there wasn’t any

competition.

“He used to be your friend?” Zander had come out of nowhere to tap his hand on my shoulder. We

have taken care of him, but it didn’t mean I forgot everything he and his sister did to hurt Enya. ..

Maynard’s love for Enya might not be real, but I love her with all my existence. I just cannot let others

hurt her.

“Yeah,” I responded to him, pretty dryly at this point. We were hiring some food stalls and also marking

parking locations for everyone. Since nobody had their cars, we also have to rent some.

“I know you dislike me. But I am just like you,” Zander said and I had to turn around to look at him, “I

love my mate. The day I saw her, I felt my heart fluttering. But it wasn’t until I felt the mate bond that I

acknowledged why my wolf finds solace when she was around. It might anger you but frustrates me as

well. What did Thiago do so special that he gets to keep her? I know he is your friend but from what I

have heard, every guy who wants you to be sidetracked befriends you.” The thing about Lazlo that I

hated the most was how he would yammer for minutes without taking a break.

“So you are saying Thiago is not truly my friend?” I scoffed and laughed at her for trying to turn me

against Thiago.

“All I am saying is that why do you think the Moon Goddess gave her so many mates? There is

something special about her and we all mates have to protect her,” Zander stated, and I almost lost my

senses. He was not wrong! She is special.

“But I will tell you this,” it was then Zander pulled me out of my thoughts and puckered her lips inside,

“Thiago is not what he shows to you.” His statement didn’t surprise me.

I bet he gathered it from whenever Thiago’s wolf tries to come forward.

“He is not loyal,” but then he struck me with why he was saying all that about him. I was shocked that

he even said those words. I couldn’t respond to him because he had already walked away.

It wasn’t until he mentioned that I began to look around for Thiago. He had left the sight quite some

minutes ago and I haven’t heard from him since then.

I started looking around for him now that I was feeling a bit on the edge. Why would Zander even say

something like that?

*Laz! Did you hear Zander?” I asked my wolf, just to be sure we both are on the same page.

‘I did. I am — I don’t know how to feel about it. I mean, we trusted Maynard. Look what he did to her.

Now that it had come down to Thiago, we never know,’ Laz confused me even more, ‘Besides, why do

we have to sit on the side and watch our mate with somebody else?’ he was probably right but I just

cannot betray Thiago.

It was then I finally heard Thiago’s voice, but I was near the café. What was he doing behind the café

and who was he talking to?..

.

With my heart pulsating hard in my chest, I hid behind the wall to hear him.

“Yeah! But you have to stay silent,” he was convincing someone in hesitation. Who was he silencing,

and why?

I pulled my face out just to grab a good look at the person and my heart drowned in my stomach juices.

It was Jessica and Thiago.

“But— I want to introduce you to everyone,” she seemed so scared yet so in love.

“Rig—ht now is not a good time, you know? See! I have alr—eady marked you, haven’t 1?” Thiago

stated as he stepped back from her just so that he can look into her eyes.

I had these cold shivers run down my spine when I heard that. Did he mark her? but I thought she had

a mate?

“Bu-,” Jessica was hushed down when Thiago shook his head.

“Look! You cannot tell anyone. I will keep in touch with you. I have been in touch with you, right? I will

stay there. But you have to promise me, you will not speak to anyone about us, and neither will you tell

Enya about it. It is going to be our little secret, okay?” Thiago was looking into her eyes and talking to

her as if he was hypnotizing her.

“Okay.” she looked truly compelled to listen to him, “But what about finding other mates? You said you

want me to find you more victi— mates,” she forced a smile onto her lips.

It was only then I remembered when she told me somebody marked her by force. And now she

seemed to be compelled to listen to him as if he was controlling her,

Just like Gina was.

“I have a few in my mind. But you will do nothing because you are not very subtle about it.” Thiago

seemed mad that she was walking around and telling everyone that she was a mate.

So all this time, Thiago was the monster? Is this why he wanted to ask me if I remember Jessica telling

me she was marked?

‘We need to protect Enya,’ Laz was shaken up by what we have found out.

“Now go back to the hotel and don’t mess around.” I couldn’t stay there and watch them anymore.

Besides, I didn’t want to get caught.
