Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee novel Chapter 403

403-The Drunken Mate

"What the fuck are you saying, Lazio?" I couldn't stay silent anymore. The only thing I was left with was my dignity and my self-esteem, and tonight he was trying to snatch that from me.

"I watched you go on a date with Zander, Enya. I watched you die for Thiago. I saw you regret ever leaving Maynard. I was on the call with you when you were in a room with Corbin. You came back to the room smelling like him that day. I — was there to suffer," he yelled at the top of his lungs, leaving me shocked.

"But you agre--ed to me accepting my mates. In-fact-," I paused when my sobs choked me, "you begged me to accept you. You convinced me you will never talk about it, you will never be bothered about it," I was sobbing, the rise and fall of my chest even more prominent this time.

"I lied, okay? It broke me," he yelled and pushed me until I landed in the bed.

"I loved you, and you didn’t care. I was always your last choice because the powerful Enya was too into herself to realize Lazio was also in line," he yelled, spreading his arms and then scoffing at me.

I couldn't even say anything as I watched him with silent tears leaving my eyes. He had kept so much in his heart, and my dumbasses married him, thinking at least I have one of my mates with me.

"And yes! I didn't take you with me because I didn’t want Maynard and Christina to suffer because of you. Their relationship had been so awful because of you." Lazio then hunched over, resting his foot on the bed, to point his finger in my face.

"Yes! You! Maynard never forgot about you. He ruined his perfect marriage because he couldn't stop thinking about you. Now tell me, how the heck did you expect me to take you to their place? I have seen Christina cry in silence every time we met her," he finished, stepping away from the bed and closing his eyes to calm down.

"You are not the only victim, Enya. If anything, you should be the last one to feel like you are getting mistreated," he stated, but this time, he didn't yell.

"Now that they are staying here, kindly don’t do anything that will make things more awkward between them," he warned me before walking out of the room. Slowly slipping back, I rested my back on the mattress and closed my eyes.

After a few minutes of not moving a muscle, I changed sides and curled into a ball to sob in silence. I didn't know I caused so much trouble in their relationship without ever actually doing anything.

So the plan was made. I would stay far away from Maynard and let him find his way back to her.

The night went by just like that. I prepared the breakfast for them in the morning but didn’t attend it myself to minimize my interaction with Maynard.

While they left for the office, I stayed behind. I had planned to skip work until Maynard and Christina leave.

I was busy preparing dinner for them when my phone kept ringing. I ignored it the first few times after looking at the caller ID, but later it became difficult to avoid the Alpha King calling me.
