Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

450-It’s Karma, B*tch!

His confession shocked me, but it didn’t intrigue me. He changed after Thiago returned; otherwise, he was happily

controlling my life and keeping me somewhere in his mansion while he enjoyed his newly founded lover’s company.

“Oh!” Theo sighed, rolling his eyes.

“But you told me—,” Before Valerie could continue to object, Lazlo’s grunt silenced her.

“I thought I did, okay? But that doesn’t mean I don’t love you.” He instantly reached for her arm, but she stepped

away from him.

“Okay! Now it is becoming boring. You two can go back and forth until we are gone.” Theo slammed his hands on

the desk to get their attention. He was already standing beside his seat and waiting for me to follow him when Lazlo

objected one more time.

“Did you not hear me? She is not leaving to stay with you,” Lazlo groaned, making tight fists out of his hands. The

fact that he knew he could never fight a Lycan, yet he was p*ssing Theo off, surprised me. An ungrateful person

never

understands the worth of their beloved Luna until they lose her.

“How about we let Enya decide what she wants to do?” It was then that Theo played another trick and drew

attention to me. Maynard hadn’t even moved a muscle this whole time. He was sitting in his seat and staring at the

floor with his fingers scratching his chin.

“Enya! Tell him you will not leave with a monster who caged your mate.” Since Lazlo knew how he had treated me

would

affect my decisions, he turned to speak to me and actually brought Thiago into the middle to convince me to reject

Theo’ s offer.

I understand that Theo had committed a terrible act by imprisoning Thiago, but it was also in my best interest to

find out how I could release Thiago. Not only that, if we look at Theo’s side, he wanted to be free, just like the rest

of us.

“Actually,” I finally spoke up, “I will go back to the mansion with Lazlo.” As soon as I said that, the smile from Theo’s

face faded and a look of lost hope appeared on Lazlo’s face until I added, “I will pack my bags and message you to

let you know when you can drop me off at your pack, Theo!”

My decision resulted in Theo closing his eyes and sighing secretly while Maynard got out of his seat, kicked the seat

down, and bolted towards the exit. Lazlo was silently staring at my face, with big tears forming in his eyes.

“No!” Lazlo shook his head. “That is not happening.” He smiled through tears, instantly clenching his jaw in disbelief.

“Why? You thought I would never be able to escape your clutches?” I scoffed at him, remembering the endless days

and nights of agony.

“Let’s go home, and we can talk about everything. I can open my heart and tell you what drove me away from you,

okay?” Lazlo instantly bolted in my direction and spread his arms, requesting to have a word with me.

“I know what drove you away from me, Lazlo. It was your ego! The kiss between me and Maynard and the doubts

over my character was just your excuses to justify your mistreatment

of me. When the reality is that you never forgave me for what my mother did to you. All this time, you were

frustrated at the fact that my mother ruined your childhood while I got to have powers. On top of it, you wanted

control over me, which I never let you have. I was a fool to never focus on your actions. From you drowning me in

that academy’s bathroom to not pulling me out when I demanded you do so, it was pretty clear you wanted to

control me. And once you couldn’t, the anger built inside you. Hence when you finally got me, you punished me for

all those times and it helped you feel better and stronger,” I said it all in one breath, watching him close his eyes

and bite the inside of his cheeks.

It was true. I figured all the accusations were nonsense. He just blamed me and used my mother’s magic of making

him grow up as a control freak excuse to hurt me.

I shook my head one last time before walking out of the door and going downstairs. I needed to get ready to leave

his pack. I was definitely not going to stay with Theo for the rest of the time because there were a few things that

needed to be sorted out first.

I couldn’t completely trust Theo, as he had told me in coherent words that his master had control over him.

“So, you are going with him?” I heard Maynard complain and come out from behind the car as he watched me wait

for Marko.

“Yes,” I answered, standing unbothered and looking at the road.

“If you are so upset with Lazlo, why don’t you come and stay with me? Why do you feel like living with that monster

is the

best option?” Maynard stood beside me and demanded answers from me in a loud tone. I had to turn over and

stare at him in disbelief.

“There was a point when I expected you to help me stay with you, but you turned your back on me, Maynard. Do

you not remember?” I laughed sarcastically, reminding him of that night when they broke my hopes in one fell

swoop.

“Laugh as loud as you want. I admit I f*cked up, but I am here to fix it,” he argued. “I want you as my mate even if I

have to do something that will hurt many people’s feelings,” he claimed, his hands turning into a ball of fists.

“You were given a chance, Maynard. It was your last chance, and what did you do? You left me,” I whispered, “Once

again! You disappointed me just like you have in the past. You were cursed that time; hence, I thought I could give

you a chance, but you failed me again. You failed me when you slept with me to boost your ego and then refused to

help me when Corbin was going to take me away. So forgive me if I have run out of chances for you.” I shrugged as

I looked him in the eye and answered him bluntly.
