Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee Chapter 281
281 My Mate Is My Enemy We watched them take Christina away, with Zander following her in the car behind.Lazio and I planned to join Thiago and look for Maynard.
He had his phone turned off and there seemed to be no signs of him.
Lazio and I were wandering around the woods when my phone kept beeping.
"Answer your damn phone," Lazio complained, eyeing my phone that had kept bothering him for the last few minutes.
We were all sleep deprived and overly pissed off.
I could see our concerns for Maynard in the form of a frown on our faces.
"It's his mother," | groaned, shaking my head as I recalled what this woman had putMaynard through.
"What does she want now?" It wasn't a surprise that none of us were fond of her.
We were desperately waiting for the day when Maynard would return to his pack and expose her for her messiness.
I would love to be in the front row when she gets punished for her crimes.
"Hello." After gathering all my strength and forcing myself, I answered her call.
"Enya! What is going on in the academy? We just received a call from the cops, asking us ifMaynard had come to the pack. What is going on? Where is my son?" The way she was aggressively demanding about her son's whereabouts made me roll my eyes at her.
As if she had ever cared for him.
She was dying to prove herself to be an exemplary mother.
He was never her priority when Geralt was alive.
"We are looking into the matter," I replied to her in a very dry tone.
I would instead be using every second to find Maynard than to talk to his evil mother.
"But what is going on? What happened?" I always knew there was something wrong with that woman.
Even hearing her voice was exhausting enough for me.
"He got into an altercation," I said, constantly rolling my eyes at her.
"Oh, God! What happened? Is it his mate? Did she get him into a mess? I knew he shouldn't be acceptinganyone until he turns 25." She had no shame in expressing her dislike for Christina.
I'm sure she never accepted me from the bottom of her heart, either.
But now that I was not Maynard's mate anymore, she was openly gossiping with me.
"Mrs. Gray, if you would give us some time and not bother us by constantly blowing up our phones, we will be able to findMaynard." I was done being nice to her.
She didn't deserve it.
A woman who abuses and lets her son go through shit just because she has something bigger to gain from her other son deserves no respect in myeyes.
"Excuse me? Since when did you start talking so rudely to me?! am the mother of an alpha—"I hung up on her.
I was not ready for another lecture from a self-centered bitch.
"I am going to call Thiago once more," I said, dialing his number while Lazio dialed Zander’s number to check up on Christina.
When Thiago wasn't answering my calls, Zander answered Lazio's calls.
I turned my full attention to Lazio to see what was going on in the police station.
I was afraid of the public trial; it would be messy if that happened.
"Zander! How is Christina?" Lazio asked, putting the phone on speaker "She is a mess.
She isn't saying anything.
If she didn't start talking anytime soon, she would get in trouble," Zander seemed worried when talking about his sister.
Who wouldn't be? But it was also very hypocritical of him because I remember he told her to stay silent.
"How is the search for Maynard going?" He asked in worry when Lazio and I didn't respond to his claimsof wanting to know more from Christina "We haven't found him yet, but we are looking for him." | grabbed the phone out of Lazio's hands and said in a defeated tone.
"We need to find out what happened or else they will accuse Christina of murdering Mr.Tripper.
She is not an alpha, she is just a rogue.
They will never provide her with any of the best services or lawyers.
We need to hurry up." Zander explained to us why it was so important to find Maynard.
It seemed like he just wanted someone else to take the blame so that his sister couldn't get into trouble.
"We are not finding Maynard to hand him over to the cops.
Our plan is to prevent him from getting accused of anything he hasn't done.
And even if he had killed Mr.Tripper, we needed to prove him innocent by proving Mr.Tripper guilty of a much bigger crime," I said aggressively, making my stand clear to Zander.
"Even if he murdered someone?" Zander asked in shock from the other side.
"That other person was a scumbag. Besides, wouldn't you do the same for Christina?" I couldn't believe Zander was so selfish.
All he cared about was his ass and his sister's.
"That is a different issue. She is my sister. I will do anything for her. Either you find Maynard or get a hold of Thiago. One of those suckers must have done something," Zander snapped at me for dragging his sister intothe conversation.
"Did you ever even consider any one of us as your friends?" I don't know why I was stillarguing with him when he had made it pretty clear that nobody else concerned him.
"What have any of you ever done for me or my sister? Why would I care about you guys?" He said arrogantly, probably driving because I heardthe cars honking around him.
"Then listen to me, mister; we are not handing over Maynard.
