Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

377-She Only Likes Thiago

Author's POV:

Years Ago:

Things changed drastically after Thiago's father passed away. At least for Thiago.

Shaun threw an enormous party to celebrate, but he titled it completely differently so that

nobody could question why the party was being thrown.

Enya stood in the corner while everybody was enjoying in the garden, gossiping, and enjoying

the food.

"Hey, who are you?" she heard a voice from behind him, and upon turning around, she saw little

Corbin staring at her.

"I'm Enya!" she introduced herself, looking over her shoulder at her mother, who was a

respected guest at the party.

Shaun now knew he could do anything with Hazel by his side.

"I'm future alpha King Corbin. You are standing on my property, so you need to bow down to

me," Corbin mumbled with a smirk on his lips. He tied his powerful arms over his chest and

rolled his eyes at her for delay.

"I will bow when you are finally the Alpha King," she replied in a very sassy tone.

"You are supposed to talk in a respectful tone with me," Corbin pouted at her, staring at the

teddy she was holding in her arms.

"Give me that," he said, reaching out his hand for her, but she shook her head, refusing to give

him her teddy.

"You cannot say no to me," he growled, attempting to grab the teddy out of her hands, but she pulled away from

him and secured herself.

"I just did." She stuck her tongue out and ran in her mother’s direction. The moment she hugged her mother's legs,

Shaun turned to her.

"Little Enya looks upset; what happened?" Shaun asked, watching his son walk after Enya but stand with his father

now.

"He was snatching my Teddy," Enya complained, and Hazel let out a nervous laugh.

"It's okay. Don't be rude. Sharing is caring, you know?" Hazel tried to grab the teddy from Enya to hand it to Corbin,

who was still glaring at Enya.

"No! It's mine. If he wanted to play, he could have asked nicely." Enya held the teddy bear even more tightly and

refused to let go.

"I'm so sorry. She acts arrogant sometimes." Hazel was nervously laughing and trying to cheer up Shaun, who didn't

even look much upset.

"It's fine. She is a kid too. And why do you need her teddy? You never play with teddies. Don’t ask for it just for the

sake of upsetting her," Shaun told off his son and then turned to Hazel.

"She must be a hybrid, isn’t she?" he looked very impressed even by looking at Enya.

"She is." Hazel caressed her daughter's cheek proudly, smiling at her and then looking back at Shaun.

"Then she must get the powers you have." Shaun stroked his chin, his gaze fixed on Enya.

"She definitely will when it's time," Hazel answered.

"Aha! Hmm! I think you should enjoy the party. I will have a conversation with you about her later on," Shaun said

before he walked away with Corbin, who stuck his tongue out to taunt Enya before leaving.

"Enya! Why didn't you give him the teddy? Her father pays us. I could get you a new one," Hazel said to Enya,

shaking her head in disapproval.

"I don't like him." Enya simply shook her head at her mom.

"You need to make friends, Enya," Hazel whispered, smiling at an old couple greeting her.

"I will make friends with that boy I met in the cemetery," Enya answered, a frown appearing on Hazel's forehead.

"What cemetery? What kid?" Hazel had to grab her daughter's arm and pull her to the corner in order to have a

talk with her.

"That kid whose mom died," Enya answered, freeing her arm from her mother's grasp, but she couldn't escape her

mother's angry glare.

"Enya! Tell me who exactly how do you know about that kid and what cemetery?" Hazel asked her, and this time

she looked even angrier.

She didn't know anything about Enya knowing the little kid. Hearing about Thiago from Enya shook her heart.

"I met him when me and Daddy went to pray for his mommy," she answered, but grimaced at her mother for

questioning her so roughly.

Hazel gulped as she straightened her back and zoned out.

"So your father took you there without my permission, got it?" Hazel said to herself. Her mood

has changed so much that everybody can tell she is no longer enjoying the party.

After going through the last two hours of the party like a zombie, she finally said goodbye to

Shaun and the others and left with her daughter. Shaun had offered her his own car to drop her

home.

She didn't even call or text her husband back when she kept getting his calls.

She knew Shaun's car would have any sort of microphone and cameras, so she didn’t want to

give him a hint that her husband had been taking their daughter to pray for Mrs.

Shepard.

Once they got off the car, she walked into the house, holding Enya by her arms tightly.

"Mommy! Let go, it hurts," Enya complained, but Hazel snatched her toy away and threw it on

the floor while preparing to call for Alaric.

"Alaric!" she shouted at the top of her lungs.

"Come out here," she screamed again, and this time, he rushed out of his room and found Enya

in tears.

"Let her go." Alaric lunged at her without even asking what had happened, and he first freed his

daughter.

"Are you crazy?" Alaric yelled at her as he held his daughter close to his chest. For a moment,

Hazel couldn't talk because she kept staring at Enya and how she was crying.

"I didn't mean to. She is my angel, you know that," Hazel said, trying to get near Enya, who hid

in her father's chest and stole eyes from her mother.

"I'm not sure anymore." Alaric shook his head and shocked her with what he thought of her.

"You think my daughter is not my priority? Whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it for her," she yelled,

breaking down finally.
