478-The Cheaters Kissed
Author's POV:
Two Years Ago:
I can't believe you went through so much, mom!’ Christina had sat down to have a heart-to-heart conversation with her mother, where they shared their life struggles with each other. Emelia told her everything about her past with Hazel, and Christina recalled every single moment she felt miserable because of Enya. "I took my revenge when I ended up there that night and their daughter was alone. But sadly, she soon found many mates to take care of her. That is what irks me the most. I don't know how anyone can think Enya is innocent. The only reason she hadn't done anything wrong till now is because she had been given the best life. She has so many mates and friends that are ready to give up on their own happiness for her. That is so unfair. She should face some consequences." Emelia ran her fingers through her daughter's hair as Christina rested her head in her lap.
"You know, even my mate still carries feelings for her. I have not confronted him about it yet, but there have been so many times when he has called me a wrong name because he was imagining Enya in me,” Christina sighed, complaining about Maynard and how he hadn't been able to stop thinking about Enya.
"That's the problem. Enya is not a saint. She must have been giving him hints here and there,’ Emelia scoffed at the thought of Enya living peacefully.
"What should we do then? I don't like her either." Christina lifted her head from her mother’s lap and stared into her eyes. It was the first time that she had someone who could actually help her get rid of Enya.
"We have to first make sure we turn her mates against her. Take them out one by one. Don't rush anything; start slowly. The way they feel about her is very strong, so it might take you some time to even turn one of them against her, but in the end, it will be worth it," Emelia told Christina, who bobbed her head and then got up from the couch to leave.
"There is one more thing you need to know." Emelia cleared her throat as she prepared to speak to Christina about something she had been hiding from her all this time.
"What is it, mother?" Christina asked, sitting down again once she realized how stressed her mother looked.
"Beware of Enya!* Emelia told Christina, "She will not rest until she steals everything from you, like her mother did from me."
"But she cannot do that. Maynard would never go back to her, no matter how much he missed her. He knows the sacrifices I made for him are wild; he will forever be burdened by them." Christina gave her mother a smile and then got up again.
"I will go see what is going on in the academy. Maynard must be curious where I went since I don't have anywhere to be at,’ she told her mom and hugged her one last time before heading out of the house.
She was happy to have her mother by her side now. If only Zander hadn't been so desperate, they would now be a happy family.
After going back to the academy, Christina couldn't help but feel this emptiness inside her. She blamed Enya’s mother for not being able to live with her mother and for losing her brother.
"Are you okay?" Maynard asked her, watching her zone out.
"I am fine." Christina forced a smile across her lips, comforting Maynard and also trying to escape any questions he had for her.
