"Lazio!" I murmured, walking closer to him and holding his face in my hands. "You can talk to me whenever you feel like you are being left out.'1 I was trying to be mature and understand his feelings.
"Really?" he whispered, melting in my hands.
"I care about you as much as I care about Thiago," I said, and I brought my lips closer to his lips and brushed them together. I felt his muscles stiffening and his body reacting to it.
He grabbed my back in his firm hands and pressed our bodies together. I tilted my face, deepening the kiss with him and tasting his lips when he pulled away only a little so that he could ask me.
"And do you love me as much as you love Thiago?" he asked, gently brushing our lips together. I tried to kiss him again just so that I didn't have to answer him, but he caught on to the trick and pulled his head back a little.
"Really? You cannot even answer that question?" He freed me from his grasp and shook his head sadly.
"Laz—," I paused because Thiago had brought back Zander, who looked confused when watching us in the deep woods, looking all worried.
"Are we having a bonfire here?" He let out an uncomfortable chuckle and then stared at me with wishful eyes, "Wow! You look gorgeous under the moonlight." He quickly made a comment and then looked away to make it seem casual.
"So, you didn't read the messages?" Thiago mumbled, patting his shoe on the ground.
"I did. But I thought you guys were making fun of me," Zander answered, while narrowing his eyes in my face and then traveling down to my neck.

"We are seriously marking her?" The excitement and happiness in his eyes spoke for themselves. He must have been desperately waiting for this day. The way he rubbed his face while smiling was another reason I didn’t want him to mark me.
"It's to keep her safe," Thiago said. "So yeah, we are not joking," he added.
"You guys already marked her? Did she mark you back?" Zander asked questions whilst he reached me.
"No! One step at a time." Thiago was the one doing most of the talking. Lazio seemed to have found another reason to be mad at me.
"Okay, so! I will just mark her then." Zander once again rubbed his palms excitedly.
I was feeling uncomfortable standing this close to him. He rested his hand on my back and then pulled me over his chest in one quick move. I almost glared at him for being so extra.
"Get ready to feel the most affectionate marking ever." He knew he was annoying me with his commentary, but kept going on.
I reluctantly stretched my neck to the side and let him bury his face in my neck. His breath made me shiver; it was the kind of feeling you can’t tell if it was good or bad.
"I always knew you would smell this good," he whispered on my skin, gently pressing his lips against mine and then forcing them open.
I kept thinking I should push him back. The more he was staying near me, I more desperately I wanted to push him off of me.
That's when I felt his sharp teeth touching my skin. He was ready to mark me.
The instant he forced pressure to dig his teeth inside my skin, a weird feeling of repulsion was immersed in my body. His teeth had only pierced through my skin when he jolted and pulled away from me.

"Arghhhh!" He screamed, getting on his knees and spitting out whatever blood his teeth had on them.
"What the fuck?" he let out a complaint and kept spitting to clean his mouth.
"Zander! It’s not the right time to play pranks," Lazio exclaimed in exhaustion.
I was confused about what was going on. Thiago was also staring at Zander without having a clue.
"Her blood is like a poison." Zander finally got on his feet to look me in the eye and complain.
"What?" I questioned, out of confusion.
"We two marked her without feeling anything," Thiago added.
Zander stared at us one by one, and then his eyes stayed on my face for a moment because he said, "It is because she hates me,"
That little whisper he used shocked us all. He sounded upset and defeated.
"What are you talking about?" Lazio seemed to be calling it bullshit. But Lazio looked way too serious to be joking.
"That's why I couldn't mark her. She fucking hates me. She wanted to push me away." Those tears shining in his eyes came as a surprise to us.

"Logically speaking, it's not like you were ever good to her," Lazio taunted, with a hint of satisfaction on his face.
"Neither were any of you. You have all fucking got second and third chances, but it is all over for me. You did the same thing; tried to win her over, but when I did, I am getting all the hate?" Zander looked Lazio straight in the eyes and made a comment that made me raise my eyebrows at Zander.
"Hey, talk about yourself," Lazio defensively spoke up.
"Why? You're the one who accused me of being unkind to her. Aren't you the one who has been trying to keep her away from Thiago all this time?" Zander was yammering out of his mind, but his words definitely had some reality in them, or why else would Lazio look so frightened and anxious?
"What are you talking about?" I jumped in after staying quiet for too long.
"Go ask your beloved, perfect mate, who willingly marked." Zander said to me in a shaky tone, "I’m out of here," he muttered, and stormed away from us.
"Lazio! Is there something you need to tell me?" I asked Lazio, who was avoiding eye contact with me.
"Great! The person you hate said something and you are coming for my throat already." He shook his head and walked away, but it was odd.
It was as if he was running from a confrontation.
My one mate left me unmarked. I wondered if it would make me miserable in front of the monster.
