155-The Secret In His Eyes
Enya’s POV:
Mt. Tripper made us go back to our rooms. Everybody was resisting so Mr. tripper sent us all to the rooftop but asked us to not stay alone anywhere.
The cops had arrived and were taking care of Gina’s body and also inspecting her room. it was said that she jumped off her window after repeatedly claiming to be mind-linked with her mate; aka the monster.
The rooftop was not much crowded but there were other fellows with us. Christina, Zander, and Maynard had left for their rooms with many other students while we climbed to the rooftop. I had been worried about the look Maynard gave Thiago when he talked about the monster being one of us.
I knew we couldn’t trust Maynard. He is the type who can do anything when angry.
“Enya! it’s not your fault,” Thiago had been repeatedly comforting me and reminding me that Maynard standing against Thiago is not my fault.
But I do feel like I got him in trouble when I slept with him and accepted him. Maynard will definitely take the anger out on him.
“Well, I would beg to differ,” Lazlo, who was given the task to speak to Maynard and bring him to the rooftop, commented without raising his face from his phone.
“Lazlo! can you not?” Thiago didn’t waste a single minute before turning to Lazlo and warning him from starting the whole blame game again.
“What? it’s not like I am lying. The least she could have done was to let him know she is falling for you. Thiago! If she can do that to him today, she can do worse to you tomorrow,” the fact that Lazlo didn’t even want to look at me made my heart crumble.
I don’t know why I was worried about what he thinks about me because I have clearly shared no mind to what Maynard will think of me. and why would I care what Maynard thinks?
The heart wants what it wants, isn’t it like that?
“That friend of yours is no saint. He kicked you out of his life when he was done with you. You are siding with him because you think it was disgusting of Enya to send her address to the group? Didn’t you want to be with her?” watching Thiago argue with Lazlo was the last thing! wanted to happen.
I was beginning to realize I was becoming the reason that they were arguing a lot.
“I have called Maynard upstairs, let’s have a word with him. Because of Enya! I will not let you and Maynard ruin Thiago’s image,* Lazlo finally made deep contact with me and I lowered my gaze from him.
“I appreciate your concern but Lazlo, you know nothing about her,” I loved it that Thiago was defending me but I also hated it that Lazlo was seeing me in the wrong light now.
Finally, we saw Maynard walking through the crowd and approaching us.
“You called for me?” he looked very arrogant. He didn’t even want to look me in the eye, why? Was he ashamed of me or angry at me? I wanted to know what he was feeling now that he was right in my face.
“What were you trying to do back in there?” I asked instead of letting Thiago or Lazlo ask him. I know he was doing all this because of me.
“You really want me to talk about it here?” Maynard lowered his neck, his eyes darting anger at me.
