Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

438-Oh! Welcome Back, My Love!
“Janet!” I sighed, calling from far away.
“I can’t hear you properly,” she complained, and that’s when Corbin pulled the phone near his mouth.
“Ah! My beloved Luna Queen!” His greeting compelled her to let out a gasp. “I love every time you react so explosively when you
hear me call you my queen,” he smirked, walking around the couch and sparing a quick stare at everyone present.
These people wouldn’t care about Janet or Thiago’s pack. I knew that much for sure. I was the only one worried about what he
had planned for her, because I knew d*mn well he wasn’t in love with her.
“Why do you have her phone? Where is she? What have you done to her?” she yelled from the other side, grunting at him as
she asked to know about me.
“She is fine. I have come by her pack to invite her to the big celebration today,” he said, leaning over the couch from behind and
staring me in the eye.
“You want to celebrate this forced marking?” She said from the other side, scoffing at him, “Sure! Let’s do that at my pack then,”
she challenged him rather than requested.
“Fine. I would very much love it,” Corbin mumbled with a smile on his lips.
“Enya! please come over today.” She said before, not even waiting for Corbin to return my phone. She had hung up on him while
he pouted like an innocent and genuine mate.
“She is so dry,” Corbin sighed, pretending to be sad.
“Anyway, you are all invited. Or, how about we take this journey together? Wouldn’t it be exciting?” Corbin rubbed his palms
together to show fake enthusiasm when suggesting that idea. I didn’t even want to join them, but I had no choice. I wouldn’t
leave Janet alone with this monster.
The whole nightly disaster was something Corbin did to distract us for the time being till he marked Janet. I marched back into
my room and walked around anxiously, getting angrier by every passing second. Valerie and Christina left to get new dresses
and doll up as if they didn’t hear me say Corbin marked Janet by force. A knock on the door brought my attention to Maynard
and Lazlo, who were waiting to have a word with me.
“I am not in the mood for any debate right now.” I opened the door and rolled my eyes at their sight.
“We just wanted to make sure you were fine. That news must be a bit hard for you,” Maynard said, trying to sound genuine.
“Why? Is it because you think I am jealous of Janet?” I asked and looked at Lazlo directly. He shared a glance with Maynard
before shaking his head in guilt.
“I told you he was up to something, but you didn’t listen to me. Instead, you would rather f*ck that respectful Valerie than to help
Janet out of this mess,” I groaned, not using foul knowledge for Valerie on purpose. Last time I did, he almost

hit me.
“I made a mistake, but Valerie has nothing to do with it. She didn’t ask me to meet her; I just couldn’t stop seeing her,” he
said, probably thinking it would hurt me.
It did, but did I show any emotions? No!
“I don’t care what you two are planning to do now, but I will not let him force her into moving in with him,” I warned the two,
placing my hands on my waist and restlessly walking around until I turned to the closet.
“Close the door when you leave,” I said, taking out a dress to wear for the event. I will see how Corbin enjoys this day.
I walked out of the room after slipping into a golden gown to find them all dressed up in suits and dresses. I didn’t wear any
makeup, and neither did I style my hair. My wounds were still pretty fresh, so I spent time changing the bandages.
“Let’s go. I cannot wait to meet my Luna queen again,” Corbin smirked, giving a little jerk to his gray coat, before walking ahead
of us.
I followed them out and stood on the side of the road, waiting for Marko. Lazlo silently stood outside his car for a minute before
he rolled inside and left with Valerie.
“Hey! whoa!” When Marko saw my bruised state, he got out of the car and took a step back.
“Are you attending a dead one’s marriage? What happened to you?” He asked in bewilderment, looking worried about my state.
“I am kind of forced to attend this messy lunch,” I said, getting in his car and watching him turn on the engine.
“Want to explain what happened?” he asked, and I began to
spill all the beans to him. At this point, I didn’t really care with whom I gossiped. My secrets were never kept by anyone. Screw
theirs too.
“That’s brutal. So you really think last night was Alpha King Corbin’s doing?” He asked, and I faintly nodded. I could tell he
disagreed with me, but that might be because he had no idea how far Corbin was willing to go to make Janet accept him.
The hour-long car ride was filled with agony. I have never felt so low in energy, but also not alone. It was crazy because | had just
found out that my mate and best friend had been sleeping around and had even picked her as his new mate, yet I didn’t feel
alone.
It could be the result of years of misery wreaking havoc on my mind. Obviously, the others arrived before me, and I was a few
minutes later.
When I got out of the car to enter the main grounds, I was shocked to see the arrangements. I couldn’t really understand how
Corbin managed to throw such a big party in a few hours. He was with us the entire time, so who prepared all this?
All the pack members were sitting in their seats and staring at someone in the gazebo in front of them. I steadily made my way,
expecting to see Janet standing under the gazebo with Corbin, but the surprise I got was bigger than anything.
Lazlo, Valerie, Maynard, Christina, and even Corbin were standing in shock at the entrance.

“I am back my beloved pack members!” His voice gave me goosebumps, his sparkling grey eyes darting around as he
announced his return.
