“It is going to be fine,” I whispered to Christina, who was sitting in the police station and shaking her legs nervously.
Af ter everything happened in the cabin, we called the cops and told them the fake story we had made up.
“Okay, you are good to go. Your alpha mate has explained everything to us.” The cop let us go because Maynard
took care of everything. Christina was finally able to relax. But little did she know there was more coming her way,
as Maynard was still planning to tell her the truth about her uncle and fa ther.
We all met up outside the station and returned to the academy in one car. Maynard sat in the backseat with Christi

everything. I bet he was still thinking about our conversation.
seat.
The moment we returned to the room, we saw Thiago and Moana in the room. Thiago was, as usual, busy on his
phone while Moana was hovering around him like a bee.
“I heard what happened.” Thiago got out of bed to check up on Christina. “You okay?” he confirmed, and she faintly
nodded to him.
“Girl! That is so crazy. It is like we were just talking about you killing your brother and then, bam! Another thing hap

“Can you shut up?” Maynard didn’t hold back this time. He kept holding Christina in his arms when yelling at her.
Moana frowned at him before she shrugged her shoulders and wore a blue jacket over a white top and blue shorts.

“I am leaving. If anybody wants to join me for a club, you are welcome.” She waited at the door and when nobody
re sponded to her, she headed out. She pretended like she didn’t even know Walsh. Maybe she didn’t. I mean, she
didn’t look too intelligent to even plan anything.
Now that she was gone, Christina rushed into the bath room to take a shower. I don’t blame her; she must be
feeling guilty. .
“Why was he in the cabin? Why did he go after Christina?” Thiago didn’t waste a single minute before he started
ques tioning us.
“We abducted him,” Lazlo whispered, as he was the only one who was still pretty alive. I was just worried about
Thiago.
“What?” Thiago almost yelled at us, but then lowered his voice after realizing Christina might hear us and get
triggered.
“It’s a long story,” Lazlo tried to avoid getting into specifics, but Thiago was a stickler.
“Then tell me the summary,” he insisted, his hands on his
waist and his eyes staring at me while he questioned Lazlo. I figured he was going to get upset the moment he
found out I hid the truth about recognizing Walsh from him.
“That guy was someone who abducted Enya on the island and stole her blood. We wanted to know why he did
that.” Laz lo finally explained it all to him. I was wandering around anx iously, my mind on the truth Maynard was
going to expose to Christina. I will never be able to look her in the eye again.
“And you guys didn’t feel like telling me anything?” Thiago frowned. Obviously, I saw it coming from miles away.
“When have you talked to us in the last few weeks? You are keeping yourself from us, so we felt forced to do things
behind your back.” Lazlo was the only one talking to Thiago at this point. Maynard was too consumed by the fact
that he needed to find a proper time to tell Christina, who is even more distressed now, the truth about her
guardians.
“So, what did he tell you guys?” But Thiago insisted on knowing more. Ever since Lazlo found out that his Lycan lies
and the things Thiago said in the cabin meant otherwise, he has been trying his best to be the only one to who
Thiago talks.
“Well, he said they wanted to know if Enya is as evil as her mother,” Lazlo mumbled, and then he started going into
de tails about everything Walsh said. I felt judged once again. I wanted to hear what Thiago had to say about
Walsh’s claims. He must think the same way Lazlo and Maynard did. I mean, I
did go behind his back and hurt him.
“You guys didn’t cut his tongue when he spoke all that rubbish?” Thiago’s response made me stop walking back and
forth and look at him.
“Don’t tell me he was able to make you guys question her,” Thiago turned to Maynard first, “She wasn’t happy with
you having a second chance mate, because, around that time, there was no such deal that she would accept her
other mates. She ignored everybody else and accepted you and remained faithful to you, so yeah! She was

accept the others. If anything, you still owe her that apology. And you!” He shocked me with his words. I couldn’t
even defend myself like that. “You kept begging her to accept you. It is so deceptive of you to accept her rules
when you were the one who begged her to give you a chance, and the moment she accepted you, you backed
down from all the promises you have made.” Thiago had made them realize how easily they could turn against me
and believe anything somebody told them about me.
“Besides, they didn’t take her blood because they wanted to see if she was evil or not.” He then let out a scoff and
shook his head at us, making us feel dumb.
“What? But he said —,” Lazlo bit his tongue once, ac knowledging Walsh only wanted them to turn against me.

nally broke the silence and asked him. Thiago turned to me and raised his brow, folding his muscular arms over his
chest and deepening eye contact with me.
“Because I was doing my own research.” He answered, “They wanted to know if you got all the magic after your
mother’s passing or not.” He finally explained the reason be hind them taking my blood and it made more sense.
So Walsh only lied when he said, I am as evil as my mother.
“And? Did she —,” Lazlo was the first one to ask Thiago that question, and in response to it, Thiago only nodded.
