am sory! I made a mistake.” I didn‘t want to argue with him. He has told me he doesn‘t like Zander, so I decided to not invalidate his feelings.
“It is not about you apologizing. I just want you to be wary of him. I don‘t like him one bit for you.” He seemed furious, but the moment I told him there was nothing else other than me trying to help my wounded mate, he calmed down. I knew he would not yell at me anymore.
But that didn‘t mean he wasn‘t upset with me.
“It is just that he is my mate, and when he is in pain, i–” I wanted to explain it to him better, but when he looked my way with his eyes lost in mine, I knew he had some other plans.
“Why don‘t you just reject him?” Hearing that from his lips disappointed me. He knew Zander‘s condition, maybe not like Lazlo and I knew, but how did he suggest it when he knew it would weaken Zander even more?
*Thiago! He is – literally on his deathbed. If I reject him now, he will die,” I almost sounded argumentative.”
“He is fine,” he scoffed, restlessly moving around.
“Thiago! This is unlike you. Tell me what‘s going on. Why do you not like Zander for me?” I asked in a serious tone this time. He tilted his head and deepened the eye contact before he shook his head to himself.
“He is not like Lazlo. He keeps demanding I share you with him,” he spoke up in muffled words. I said, “Nobody is going to steal me from you,” but it didn‘t seem like he was having it.
“Even if it is not the case. I just, I just don‘t like him,” he slowly freed his arm from me when I tried touching it.
Thad some questions for him as well, but bringing them up when he was upset seemed like I would use an excuse to shut him down.
“Can we not argue about it? I need to talk to you about what his sister has been doing to him.” I had only whispered when I saw Maynard coming in our direction.
What happened back there?” he looked confused when questioning Thiago instead of me.
“Go ask her.” I didn‘t look at him and held Thiago‘s arm to pull him away from Maynard. I was not ready to speak to Maynard as now.
“I will first take a walk,” Thiago then slipped his arm out of my grip and excused himself. I didn‘t appreciate how quickly things turned dirty.
“Now if you have time, your power, highness! Can I ask you what happened?” Maynard approached me again, and this time I heard him use a taunting tone.
“Huh!” I scoffed, making him knit his eyebrows together.
“Oh! You are still hung over that breakup? Enya! I have moved on. You have to. You‘ve fucking got two accepted mates, and from the looks of it, you want to accept Zander too. Then why can‘t you just forget about me?” His delusional ass made me clench my jaw and do what I have always wanted.
