Tasting All My Mates

Chapter 339
“That’ll be enough for now,” I panicked at his pulsating veins and the visible change in his body. While the others remained
silently watching him, I took a step forward and grabbed his arm to pull him away for some time. The moment our skins came
into contact, he broke the stare from Christina and turned his head to me.
My body shuddered as I watched his eyes scan my face.
“Let’s go,” I commanded, pulling him after me. He reluctantly followed me like a spoilt brat, and soon we were on the rooftop.
“Take a deep breath and try to calm down,” I told him, standing face-to-face with him. He tilted his head a little, a smirk appearing
on his lips.
“Can you take off your lenses?” I asked, nervously smiling to not alarm him.
“That is an odd thing to ask me to take off. Why don’t you try with my umm- shirt or—,” he looked down and his smirk grew wider.
“Or my pants?” he finished.
“Thiago! Take off your lenses.” I don’t know what I was thinking when I drew my hand closer to his eyes, but he grabbed it
instantly and pulled me over his chest.
“Fierce!” he whispered. “No wonder he likes you so much.” The instant he spoke to me, my heart skipped a beat.
“You a—re—,” | gasped at the revelation. It wasn’t Thiago, but his Lycan.
“I am his Lycan? Enya! If I were him, you would have noticed.

“I guess he spoke a lot downstairs.” He shook his head when he noticed how tightly he was holding my hand. So the Lycan has
started to take over his body now. The next step is going to be the final step, then.
“You need to not lose control, Thiago! I have read about your condition and found out that you are close to losing your body to
your Lycan. Soon he will take care and then you will —” I couldn’t say it so he said it.
“Then I will stay in hiding until full moon, and that night, when I come out of the wilderness, I will be bloodthirsty,” he whispered
as he nodded to himself.

“But there is a way to save you,” I said, and he tilted his head.
“Here! Read this.” I gave him the pages that I tore off the book and made him read it. He read through them quickly before he
parted his lips and let out a tiring sigh to stare at my face.
“What is this?” he asked me, holding the papers away from me. I could tell he didn’t like what he read.
“It’s a way to save you,” I smiled, reaching for the papers again, while he stared at my face, puzzled.
“By sacrificing someone?” His eyebrows twitched, his lips pressing into a tight line. I get it he didn’t want anybody to die for him,
but we were not talking about someone innocent here. That witch cursed him and ruined his life. She should not be spared,
either.

“It is not like she is innocent. Whoever cursed you should pay a price.” I saw the look on his face, and it tickled my stomach to
find a resemblance to the look Lazlo gave me when he saw me torturing Walsh in the woods.
“I am cruel. I get it. I’m no longer the stereotypical do-gooder. If anybody tries harming my mates or me, I will fight back.” My lips
quivered, but I didn’t cry. The harshness on his face faded away once he saw me in distress.
“You are not cruel. You have suffered from abuse since you were little and your parents passed away. I understand why you
changed. But the point is that I don’t want this. Everybody is allowed to decide for themselves, and I am making this decision
today because I don’t want you or anybody to fight for me. I have lived a beautiful life, and spent a little time with a perfect mate,
but it was amazing. I don’t want her to spend the rest of her life carrying my burden on her shoulders.” He gently caressed my
cheeks when talking about me. The warmth of his palm comforted me, but it was not enough because soon I realized I would
never feel that warmth again.
“No! This is so wrong. How can you expect me to watch you turn into a monster and not do anything?” I started breaking down.
The confidence and courage I had gathered in my heart began to crumble a little by little.
“Listen to me.” He cupped my face in his hands and made me look into his eyes. I wanted him to show me how much his Lycan
had taken over him.
“I will forever stay in your heart. All you got to do is to just close your eyes and feel me,” he was shaking when giving me
confidence.

“No!” | shook my head. “I will not step back.” I pushed him away and decided. He looked a little disappointed that I was back to
devising a plan.
“Hm!” he pulled back and nodded faintly.
“Well then, I guess I can’t stop you.” The way he said it sounded weird to my ears. It took him a minute to break the silence, and
when he did, he walked closer and cupped my face in his hands to crash our lips together.
The softness of his lips mesmerized me into falling prey to his kiss. I let him suck my lips softly with his fingers running through
my hand, and just when the kiss was deepening, he stopped.
“Please don’t look for me.” His breath fanned over my lips, but his words were what caught my attention. I frowned at him when I
watched him pull away from me.
“What are you pl—;” I uttered, but he walked past me to the stairs. It seemed off. He was onto something.
