444-Maybe He Seeks Revenge.
I stayed in my room and cried my heart out for a few minutes, and then I took a shower. I wasn’t too sad, just a little worried because I wanted to help Thiago come out. Theo’s return meant Thiago can be back too. Kellice was the one worrying me a little. Did he bring her with him from the other side or meet her overnight? Was Theo genuinely in love with her?
What if Thiago loved me but his Lycan loved this new girl?
All these thoughts were making me nauseous, and then I heard a knock on the door. With my hair still wet, and the blue silk gown unable to keep my body warm, I got out of bed to answer the door.
“Why did you lock the door?” Lazlo asked, staring at my as he waited for me to get out of his way and let him in. face
“I don’t remember talking about staying under the same roof again after I caught you having an affair for two years,” I said, stepping aside only so that I could have a word with him.
“It is not like you hav—,” he tried to talk, but me shaking my head put a halt to whatever he was going to say.
“Fine. I cheated on you because
—-,” the pause he took gave me time to respond to him.
“Because you fell out of love with me,” I said, and, weirdly enough, no tears were formed in my eyes this time.
“That’s not true,” he argued aggressively, trying to close the door after us.
“Don’t. I don’t want to stay in the same room as you. You take your room back; I will go stay in one of the guest rooms,” I
decided, and as I grabbed my pillow, he came my way.
“I know why you so desperately want to go to the guest room,” he muttered, refusing to get out of my way.
“Why act stubborn if you already know?” I shrugged, “Lazlo! I am not going to become a victim of your alpha ego again. You cannot stop me from talking to him just because your alpha ego wants to win a competition. I am no longer a trophy. I hope you get it this time. Besides, he is my mate too and you will be seeing him a lot now. So if you are bothered, stay in your room when he is around.” I looked him in the eye and said it in the most confident tone. The tone I might have not used after that night two years ago.
“You are making a big mistake. He only wants to fool you so that he can ruin us all. He seeks revenge and nothing else,” he muttered under his breath, his eyes digging holes through mine.
“I will be the judge of that,” I said, giving him the same look before walking towards the door.
“You were never a competition, a challenge, or a trophy to me. I loved you, and I still do. I just had my weak moments.” His claims stopped me in my tracks. I turned to smile his way.
“I was a bird you used to watch fly over your head. So the instant I sat on your shoulder, you captured me, clipped my wings, and threw me in a cage. You loved having control over me because you always thought I was disobedient.” I said quietly, without showing any emotion on my face.
There was so much that had happened in those two years that taking him seriously was no longer an option for me.
“That’s what my father taught me to do. He taught me to cage who I love, to always put them through hardships, and always make them keep trying to pursue me. Although it is not a good excuse, I admit, I did what I thought was right,” he confessed, having no remorse back in the day whenever he mistreated me.
