Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee novel Chapter 148

148-A Complicated Mate

"I don’t know who those mates are but I like it when you constantly contact me. I like it when you show your authority over me. Enya! what is going on? please open up to me. I want to know what is bothering you so that together we can fix these things," he mumbled and knelt down on the couch. He held my hands and kissed the back of them, his eyes filled with mist.

"I have only lost everything in my life, Enya. My mother only started loving me after she lost her other son. I want to be loved by you, I want you to love you only. Please don't think our relationship is dying. We are doing better and fine. Please!" the way a tear rolled down his eyes, I pulled my hands away from him and sighed.

"I don't know what to say. It is really heartwarming that you love me so much and I love you too. There is honestly nothing that I am hiding from you. I only love you. Yes! I have been in contact with my other mates because of the issues getting out of hand, but that's all about it. There is nothing else going on. I am not having second thoughts about us," I comforted him but that's when Lazio started blowing up my phone. I saw Maynard looking at my phone's screen and then expecting me to not attend it. The instant I reached for the phone, he groaned.

"We are still talking," he complained.

"I know but I am not sure why he is calling. It could be important," I tried to attend the call but Maynard snatched the phone out of my hands and cut the call.

That angered me.

"If he has something important to say, he will call me," Maynard grunted angrily, not helping the situation.

"Give me my phone back. I will continue talking to you after I attend the call," I stubbornly pulled my hand out for him. He stared at my hand and placed the phone in it.

"If you made this call, I will leave," he warned me.

I was shocked to hear that from him. He was waiting for me to choose. I didn't have much choice; Lazio could be calling me to tell me something serious.

Thinking not too much of it, I dialed Lazio's number and that's when I saw Maynard getting up from his feet and laughing at himself in defeat.

"Right!" he whispered, a tear rolling down his eye. I watched him walked upstairs in haste and at the same time, Lazio picked up my call.

"Yes! What is the emergency?" I forced a normal tone to not let him know I am worried about something.

"I met Oswin. He had come by to tell me he found the herb but it is not enough. There is only a little. He will be using it in Corbin and the other he gave me. I just wanted to let you know I have tied it around my arm so just in case I find out, you can use it on me." he was talking in haste and running over sentences.

"Okay! That is helpful," I responded, getting on my feet when I watched Maynard coming down with his bags. He seemed to have been very angry and crying also.

"Enya! also, he told me the night of seduction will be tomorrow," Lazio finished and my heart sank in my chest. Maynard was ready to leave; he knows about this place too. When he comes back, he wouldn’t even know he is having sex with someone he is probably very mad at.

"What?" I gasped, but my attention was torn between Maynard and Lazio, "Listen, how about I give you a call in a few minutes?" I asked Lazio and he understood. The instant I hung up, I rushed out to catch up with Maynard.

"What are you doing?" my shout slowed him down in his steps. He put his bags down and turned around to watch my face.

"I feel like you don't need me here. You have been busy with Thiago, Lazio all day long. You even text with him nonstop while I sit on the couch and stare at you with hopes that maybe now you will put your phone down and talk to me. I am feeling this pain in my heart seeing you ignore me like this. Is it because that night I fell asleep? Enya! such a big punishment for that? I wil-l never blink a sleep just forget about it, please. But no! I know you would rather punish me than feel my pain.” He was sobbing miserably. This was the first time I have watched Maynard cry like that.

"All I want is you to be mine. I am not controlling you. You can talk to them when I am not around but when I come home,

please give me time. I want that time for myself. If that is too hard then at least add me to the group calls too. I heard you Lazio and Thiago having a video call, but I was alone. I promise I will be good, just made me a part of your life, just a litt—," he paused when he choked on his words. I was watching him with tears leaving my eyes.

"I think I will leave for tonight. It is just too much pre---sure on my heart," he gently tapped his heart from over his chest and excused. I couldn't even stop him. He left his bags because as he said he will only take some time and sped into the woods.

The clouds were suggesting it was going to rain soon. I stared at his bags and sighed.

'I am not carrying these inside. They are too heavy for me,' I parted my lips and sighed exhaustedly. I was tired and also upset. I didn't want this to happen but now that it happened, I couldn't go back in time and change it.

I left his bags outside in rain because I didn't have enough strength in my body and Lazio was also waiting for me.
