Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

322-The One Who Stole Something
Lazlo’s POV:
I couldn‘t wait to call Enya. I mean, I don‘t care if she thinks I‘m too clingy or what, I just need to know what they are doing.
“Who do you keep calling?” Christina asked, picking up the dishes. Maynard had fallen asleep again, so it left the two of us
awake.
“Enya!” | said, not lying anymore. She wasn‘t picking up my phone, and neither was she texting me back.
In fact, after some time, she switched off her phone.
“Is everything alright? Did you guys fight or something?” Christina questioned after returning to the lounge.
“No! Hey! Would you be angry if you went out on a date with someone, like your second mate, and Maynard called you or texted
you? Is it something that will make you switch off your phone?” I wanted to know it from a girl.
“No! I mean, I would know he wanted to check on me. How many times can one take in responding to a text, anyway?” She let
out a laugh and sat down with Maynard, watching him sleep.
“Wait! Who is on a date?” She picked it up slowly, but at

least she did.
I watched her face in silence for a moment before I reck oned I didn‘t want to lie to her anymore.
. She should know her brother is on a date. Besides, what is the point of hiding it?
“Enya!” I whispered, stealing eyes from her.
“She is on a date with Corbin?” she questioned, still not getting the hint of how I was stealing eyes.
“No!” | shook my head, watching her from my peripheral vision.
“Then? Thiago is upst–,” she paused. A gasp was all I could hear in response.
“Zander? Is she on a date with my brother?” The way she got up from her seat and yelled at me, I realized why they nev er told
her about the date.
“You know, just forget I said anything. They will be back by evening, so chill.” I was now feeling guilty. She was definitely going to
interrupt, and Enya would think I did it on purpose.
“Where are they at?” She rushed ahead of me to face me and demanded my attention.
“I don‘t know. He took her out in the morning and told us to not tell you because then you get all upset,” I was trying to answer as
quickly as I could to just be done with this conversa tion because I had a feeling I messed up.
“Lazlo!” She closed her eyes to mutter something, but then didn‘t continue.
“I need to go. Take care of them.” She didn‘t waste anoth er minute before grabbing her jacket and rushing towards the exit.
“Christina!” | yelled, bolting after her, “Don‘t – –,” it was too late because she had already sprinted out like crazy. I couldn‘t follow
her due to the sick ones being left behind.
“I think I messed up,” | sighed. No matter what I do, I end up making Enya angry
I went upstairs to check up on Thiago and found him asleep.
It was the toughest day to pass with a lingering thought of Enya and Zander being together, so I decided to take a nap.

The moment I fell asleep on the sofa near Thiago‘s bed, I fell into the same pattern of nightmares that I thought I had avoided for
days now.
| Flashback:
I was hiding behind the wall while my dad was yelling at Emelia over something.
“You stole the pendant, didn’t you?” He hissed, his eyes showing his wolf as she trembled in her skin.
“I don‘t know what you are talking about,” she whimpered, hugging herself as she kept stepping back and away from him.
I was just a kid, not even a teen, and was introduced to so much toxicity already, and it all came from my father.
“Don‘t you fucking dare lie to me. When we went to the witch’s house yesterday with Lazlo, you stole something from her. Isn‘t it
why you left before she arrived?” dad was yelling at her for stealing something, but I didn‘t believe him.
She wouldn‘t ever do that. I knew Emelia as she had been taking care of me. Dad just wanted to get rid of her because he didn‘t
like the idea of anybody taking care of me.
“You ran away because you knew she had recognized you. Oh! She even saw that picture of yours that you left behind. I didn‘t
know you were married to my warrior, Gamma. Whát a fucking cunning bitch!” Dad rushed to slap her when I bolted between
them and pushed my father back.
“Don‘t hit her,” I yelled, watching my father‘s face turn pale in shock.
“How the hell did he do that? Where did he get this energy from? Wait! You were not giving them the medicine I‘ve told you to
give him?” The realization struck my father‘s face, and it angered him even more.
“How dare you disobey me?” I was so shocked that Dad got angry because she didn‘t give me what he was feeding me to
make me weak. He rushed and pushed me to the side. Of course, I dropped to the ground and bled. I was still a child. Even
if the medicine were not in my body, I couldn‘t fight him.
“Don‘t worry. We will find your kids and that husband of yours and kill them. I‘ll do it my own way,” Dad threatened her, grasping
her arm and pulling her along to his bedroom.
“But I‘ll first punish you in my own way,” dad yelled at her, while she cried and latched onto anything she could find.

End of Flashback:
I woke up to my heavy breathing and rested my head back again when I realized I had only slept for twenty minutes.
‘My childhood is such a blur. I don‘t have an excellent memory, or maybe there is none. All I remember is being kept in a slight
ache in the dungeon of my father,‘ I spoke to Laz, my best friend.
I walked around the cabin, and played some games on my phone to pass the time. My eyes were constantly on the door. I
kept thinking Enya would barge in angrily and yell at me for telling Christina, but that never happened. Instead, I received a call
from Christina.
“Hey! Did you meet them?” | said, confused as to why she called me.
“Hello?” | called again when all I could hear were muffled cries from the other side.
“What is going on?” That was it. My heart started to beat like a drum.
“It—–s all o–––ver!”
My heart sank at what I heard in the next few minutes. Oh!, I wish, I wish I hadn‘t let Enya go on this date.
