Chapter 489
489-ls He Gone Again?
‘So, you and Valerie?” Maynard asked Lazio, who had just returned to us and sat down
in the car. The two of them were sitting in the backseat while I was in the passenger seat
with Theo, who looked happy ever since he heard Lazio was no longer going to bother
me.
‘Enya made me realize I shouldn’t be running after someone who doesn’t belong to me.
Besides, I did mess up with Valerie.” Thankfully, Lazio had realized he was at fault and
was willing to put in the effort to make things right again.
“That’s good. I am happy for you,” Maynard said in a murmur. I don’t know what he was
going through in his mind after finding out Christina played him big time, but he was
avoiding speaking his mind to anyone.
’What about you, Maynard?” The moment Theo mentioned him, I elbowed him. I didn’t
want to hear another one of them wanting to pursue me.
I mean, did Christina try contacting you again?” Theo changed the subject really quicklynovelbin
once he understood I wouldn’t want him to talk about Maynard and me. There were no
us since the beginning. Like Lazio, he got many chances but ruined everything.
‘She has been blowing up my phone nonstop, but I am not responding to her,” Maynard
answered. “I am beginning to feel like she will not rest until she eats me alive,” he
sighed. I could understand his frustration. Her mother tried forcing a mate bond of
Christina with Corbin but accidentally tied Maynard and Christina in a twisted fate where
she had to meet him and get accepted by him.
It was a mess.
‘She will not sit silent for too long. Even I have been receiving calls from Emelia, trying to
reminisce on the past and how she took care of me when I was a child. In fact, this is
how Christina made me side with her for so long. She knew I was grateful for her mother,
and she took full advantage of that,’ Lazio mumbled in his mouth.
‘Right here,’ Theo said, and parked the car on the road.
‘You seem so certain that we are going to find Oswin and Mother Witch here,” I told
Theo, who had rushed out of the car before me in haste.
‘Somebody told me they have seen Corbin come here,” Theo explained, gesturing Lazio
and Maynard to follow him into the woods with me.
Really?” I asked Theo, hoping my brother would be fine.
“Let’s find out ourselves,” Theo said, holding my hand out of the blue and then stopping
only for a second to turn to the boys.
‘Here is what we should do.” Theo looked at Maynard and Lazio. “Why don’t you two
start from over there, the deep side, while we search the area around at the entrance?”
he pointed in two different directions when talking to Maynard and Lazio.
‘Got it,” Lazio said, parting ways from us with Maynard. The two nodded to him and
sprinted away from us.
Finally, Theo and I were alone. It had been a few hours since we’d been able to spend
some time alone. And I knew he had a few things that he wanted to speak to me about.
‘So, did you reject him?” Theo asked, taking the lead and looking around for any
suspicious activity.
I did,’ I said, walking behind Theo.
‘What about Maynard?” he questioned.
‘Him and I ended things years ago. I don’t think there need to be any changes in our
scenario,” I answered, wondering what he was warming me up for.
‘Ahem! Thiago has marked you in the past,’ Theo said, recalling the night when they
marked me because they wanted to protect me from Zander.
“Yeah! You weren’t there, or else I would be a lycan right now,” I joked.
‘Wait!” I stopped walking behind him and pulled him back.
‘Ask me whatever is bothering you,” I said to him, pulling him even closer. I could tell
something was making him anxious, but he was not openly talking about it.
I would want to mark you again whenever you are ready,” he whispered, gently
caressing my cheek.
“Thiago has already mark—,“ I couldn’t finish because he bent over my lips and passed
a gentle kiss to them.
I want to taste you myself,” he whispered, breaking the kiss but standing closer than
ever.
‘Would you mind?” He questioned and when I shook my head at him, he smiled.
‘You know; I want to make a baby with you. Imagine how beautiful those little creatures
will be.” He smiled widely, making me blush at his words.
‘Oh! You are blushing,” he poked my cheek, making me slap his hands away and frown
at him playfully.
‘We will have a mating ceremony, a very beautiful one.” He then promised me while
holding my hands tightly.
‘What about Thiago?” I asked him, wondering when he will realize the two can live in the
same body at the same time if only he lets Thiago take over.
‘He will have to wait and watch me with his mate for some time,” he shrugged and
laughed when I slapped his chest.
“You are evil,” I teased, but he knew that’s all I was doing. I was not serious.
‘Now let’s go quickly find my brother-in-law,” he turned around after joking and had only
taken a step ahead when an arrow pierced through the air and shot right through him.
It happened in such a hurry that for a moment, I couldn’t even move a muscle.
As his body landed on the ground, I sprinted and dropped to my knees beside him.
THEOOOOO!” I screamed at the top of my lungs, looking around and holding my hand
near his chest, where the arrow was sticking out.
There was so much blood that I feared I was going to lose him.
‘E—nya!” Theo stuttered, looking me in the eye with tears streaming down his cheeks.
‘What happened-,” He was confused, grunting, and bleeding excessively.
‘We are going to get you help,” I told him, lifting my head up and calling for the two, who
had no idea what happened here, “LAZLOOO! MAYNARD!” I yelled, my eyes welling up.
