334 Open Relationship
After Walsh wouldn‘t shut up, Christina hit him on the head and . knocked him out once again. We didn‘t take him to
the principal yet. The boys decided to leave and go to the bar. The timing was a bit odd. They didn‘t even speak to
me and left.
“I am sorry for what that guy said. He was trying to get under our skins and turn us against you.” Christina arrived
from behind me and sat down with me on the front porch.
“At least you understand his motives. I don‘t think the boys took it like you,” I sighed as I kept staring at the tall
trees.
“I don‘t think they will be stupid enough to take her words seriously,” she uttered
“Christina! These guys are alphas with big egos. They take everything seriously when it is about them getting
deceived.” Although I was talking to her about Maynard and Lazlo, my mind couldn‘t stop worrying about Thiago.
It‘s been so long since he and I connected. I wonder if he feels the same way about me now.
“A few drinks in and they will return to being themselves.” She let out a little laugh to cheer me up, but when it
didn‘t work, she tried another attempt.
“Here!” she held my hand out and rested a key in my palm. “This is the key to the library at our mansion,” she
paused after recalling Zander. “My mansion. I heard you have been wanting to find answers, so I think you should
start from there. My father used to collect all sorts of forbidden books about monsters and hybrids. I am sure I have

some research on Lycans in the library. I am sending you the address: Just go explore it. I pray you to find
something to help Thiago,” she was really considerate. I was beginning to see why Maynard liked her. She handed
me the key and began typing the address into her phone for me.
“Why was your father so interested in finding out about monsters?” I asked, and she let out a deep sigh.
“My uncle was a monster, or everybody called him that. My father thought my mom cheated on my dad with that
uncle, and, hence, Zander was born. When he rejected my mother‘s plan to go behind his back and take Zander to
my uncle, my mother was forced to live a life as a nanny.” It seemed like she was on the verge of crying but was
holding her tears in.
“Why did your mother take Zander to your uncle?” I questioned.
“Because he was the only one who could understand what was wrong with Zander. She just wanted help, but I
guess it confirmed my father‘s suspicions. Anyway, my father tried to take care of us, but his hatred for our uncle
ruined everything. He got caught harassing everyone and trying to find out about the monsters. Alpha Yale kicked
him out of the pack, so he continued his research as a rogue. However, my uncle found us, but he soon left us
because, well, he couldn‘t take care of two little babies when he was himself a monster. He came back into our lives
later on and even promised to take care of us. It was around one year and a few months ago, but then he vanished.
As rogues, we never found out what happened to him,” she suddenly stopped talking and checked her phone, “The
boys are coming back. I will monitor Walsh while you two go get the books. I don‘t think Thiago has any
more time left, Enya. We need to hurry,” she suggested, and I agreed. with her. I was thankful to her for staying
with me when I needed some support.
The boys came back, and Christina told them about the library. The plan was to pay a quick visit to the library and
find as much information as we could on Thiago‘s condition.
Maynard was a little worried about leaving Christina alone with Walsh, but she reassured him she could take care of
herself. And since he had the bracelet, he couldn‘t hurt a she–wolf.
The car ride was the most awkward ever. Maynard was driving while Lazlo was in the passenger seat and I sat
awkwardly in the backseat. Whatever Walsh said really took a toll on my mental health, but I said nothing to the
boys. I didn‘t even want to know what they were thinking
“That‘s it.” Maynard parked the car near the road, pointing at a mansion at the top of the hills.
“The rogues really love staying around hills,” Lazlo commented, letting out a sigh at how far the mansion was still
from us.
“Looks like we have to walk up to the mansion.” Maynard got out of the car, followed by Lazlo and me. He sped up
while Lazlo and I sąuntered behind him.
“Don‘t think I took that boy‘s words seriously. It is not because of him that I am asking you this question.” Lazlo
cleared his throat and started
talking, but he did alarm me from the get–go.

“What do you want to know?” I asked, matching my pace with his pace.
“If I get a second chance mate, will you allow me to be with her?” His question was long overdue. I knew it would be
brought up eventually.
“Lazlo! I don‘t know why you had to take a break from drinking, but it s not like Walsh only talked about me. He said
you were never into me having many mates. Then why did you tell me otherwise?” I was so fed up with answering
these alphas the questions they asked that I forgot that they also make mistakes and owe me answers.
“Does it matter?” He scoffed a little, confirming Walsh‘s words.
“It does. Because of the subtle insults and the way you accuse me of wanting mates and all that is not out of anger.
It is all well thought out. Even though you were told I would never leave Thiago, you still get angry with me. You
wanted to be accepted. You said you want to remain close to me, yet now you are all upset that I have other
mates?” Telling him all that made me feel a little better. Walsh was wrong. I didn‘t deceive anyone.
“Okay! Fair enough. I think it is time we set boundaries now.” The moment he said that I paused a little to look at
him.
“Or it‘s going to be an open relationship for both of us.” He didn‘t look my way and sped up to reach the mansion.
