Chapter 359: Males And Their Ego

"You silly Fae, how did you survive your previous relationships?"

Maxi was both shocked and amused at the same time that she gave him a long look, "You seriously didn’t think your mother wouldn’t want to know details about how we met? I mean, that’s my future mother-in-law we’re talking about here, and trust me when I say that this is an examination to check if I’m worthy of her son or not."

"Oh, is that so?" Issac scratched the back of his head with an awkward smile, this was obviously out of his league. He then explained to Maxi, "I never had a stable relationship, it was just flings and none of the females were worthy enough to be taken home to my mother."

"Hmmm," Maxi locked her fingers together and placed her chin on it, staring at him smugly, "So does that mean that I’m worthy enough to be taken to your mother?"

Issac was caught unaware by the question and knew this was a test by the dark Fae horse shifter. He broke away from the gaze, his heart racing faster as he answered nervously, unable to lie, "You do know that I have no choice but to present you to my mother, otherwise, this is just a —"

He was cut off when Maxi pressed a finger against his lips and he stopped talking else he ruined the whole thing. Maxi looked at him and said, "Don’t jinx our luck." Her expression softened, "At least you didn’t say I’m a dark Fae I would have kicked you out of this carriage by now. There’s only so much I can take from a racist and I don’t pamper a male who doesn’t know what he wants."

Oh, is that the case?

Issac slowly let out the breath that he had been holding onto. He had thought that Maxi would be mad that he wasn’t taking her to his mother because of his dying love for her. Sure, he liked Maxi, but he wasn’t so sure they had gotten to the loving stage.

She was more understanding than he thought and his affection for her grew. Issac was not exactly a fan of clingy females and Maxi was exactly everything he wanted in a mate — except she was dark Fae. Although she being one of the dark Faeries didn’t bother him so much as the first time, having dropped his prejudiced view and realized some myths about her kind were exaggerated.

Sure, they had the darkness inside that corrupted their soul, Issac had already gotten a preview of how vicious Maxi could be with Rosalind’s case, but it didn’t mean she went about recklessly taking lives — as what they claimed their kind does. Killing was their nature. Maxi did not let that control her.
