182-My Missing Mate
Thiago’s POV:
I have pulled Lazlo away from Enya because I didn’t like the way he was treating her. I understand he was worried for her and I was more worried than him, but I would still never let him make her feel like we don’t trust her.
“I can’t believe you aren’t angry with this situation,” Lazlo continued to drag the situation.
“Lazlo! I didn’t expect this from you. Why would you speak to her in such a tone?” | stood with the window on the abandoned side of the hotel and looked him straight in the eye. The agitation in his body was making me realize he was not only putting pressure on her but hurting himself, too.
“Did you not hear all that? Why did she have to go into the room with him? And then, not only did she let him touch her, but felt the heat too? she even reported it to us so casually,” Lazlo was understandably aggravated, but I didn’t see Enya’s fault in it.
“And that is the problem? She didn’t let him touch her. He touched her and her wolf felt the heat.” I corrected him because he was constantly phrasing it wrong.
“And she told us as if she has no idea it would hurt us,” Lazlo repeated himself like a broken record.
“And I am so happy that she is a devoted one. She came and told me everything without withholding a single detail. Lazlo, that’s what trust makes you do. You believe in your mate and you share everything with them to come up with a solution together instead of fearing what your mate will think. Under those conditions, people lie and then things turn dirty.” I wasn’t exaggerating. I had been able to share it all with my mate. Enya never doubted me or made me feel like an outsider once. Even when she knows she is much more powerful than others, she never thought she deserves a better mate, whose wolf is not all odd and insane. I was way too blessed to have Enya as my mate.
Ever since my parents died, I was reminded constantly that I cannot lead a happy life. But when she came into my life, I realized I don’t need to hate my life. She made me love myself and everything around me.
This idiot in front of me didn’t even figure out why I gave him a chance; it was all because of her. She helped me feel for others.
“I trust her. And Lazlo, don’t even think she went into the room to lead him on. She has a soft heart, and she cares for others and that makes her different. Besides, he is her mate so she is bound to feel some sort of a connection,” I saw Lazlo scoffing and it helped me comprehend he was still not considering my point.
“You do remember what happened when she tried helping someone on the rooftop when the disastrous tornado hit? She got tricked.” Lazlo was trying to make a point, but he missed something,
“Didn’t you listen to Maynard, who used you to get closer to Enya? look! I am trying to say that good people are more compelled to make mistakes. But we still need good people in the world. She was even worried about somebody in the fields. Do you think it was just so that she can lead them on? And even everything aside, I didn’t like it when you used that phrase for her. I don’t want you to shake her confidence.” I genuinely told him his words made me apprehensive.
Enya is a very modest she-wolf. She had not done a single wrong thing and even if she had; it resulted from the purity of her heart. She might get fooled around a lot because she genuinely cares about others and that makes her even stand out more.
“a–m sorry!” Lazlo scraped the back of his neck apologetically.
“I am waiting for her to realize she needs strength. Lazlo, a lot is coming our way. I can sense the danger and we— the entire academy, need Enya. She will need strength and for that, she will need to get accepted by her mates.” I reminded him that I haven’t forgotten about that issue.
“I promise you I will not force her into a physical relationship. I just want to be there for her. She will be your mate only.” Lazlo once again promised me.
Not everybody is born to accept to share their mate. I was most certainly not, but that didn’t mean she cannot befriend her mates.
