484-The Lie!
‘Oh wow! A little Lazio is coming.” Theo jumped up and down, making noises, while the others secretly congratulated Valerie, who didn’t look thrilled anymore.
‘Theo!” I urged him not to joke about this situation, but he didn’t listen.
‘Why is everybody sad? It’s a piece of good news,” Theo clapped his hands and rubbed them excitedly. “I’ll call my man and ask him to prepare for a luxurious celebration. My friend is having a baby, after all,” he added, watching Lazio steal eyes from us.
“I’ll go home now,” Valerie understood her mate wasn’t happy with her happiness.
‘Wait! You cannot go at this time. It’s getting dark, and since everybody’s going end up— why don’t you stay for the night?” Theo no longer looked like he was joking. He looked annoyed.
‘Thank you!” Valerie whispered, walking behind Kellice, who led her to the guestroom.
‘This should be a prime example of why it’s better that Enya is not planning to stay with you,’ Theo turned to Lazio once Valerie was gone to have a talk with him. I’m not in mood fo—,” Lazio tried snubbing Theo but got a harsh grunt from him.
‘You are the one who is not in a mood? She is the one who is pregnant and has found out that her mate scammed her, and you are not in the mood?” Theo yelled at him, glaring him in the eye, while others stayed silent.
‘Maybe you wouldn’t show any concern if you knew I cheated on Enya with her.” Lazio thought repeating it would change anything.
‘You led her on. She didn’t even know Enya. For her, Enya was someone to who her mate was married to. She didn’t owe her any loyalty, but you did. She was supposed to be decent, but you were supposed to be loyal to Enya.” Theo came face-to-face with
Lazio and explained things to him.
I was honestly thanking God that I was over Lazio. I cannot believe I once loved this man.
It’s a shame, Lazio. Not only did you ruin what we had, but now you are ruining what you can have with Valerie: a happy family,” I said as I disagreed with his ways. But I love you,” he requested, approaching me.
It’s not like I am ever accepting you back into my life. Don’t lose her over nothing,” I murmured, hoping he would understand and take things much more seriously now. Maynard!” Instead of responding to us, Lazio turned to question Maynard, who was secretly looking my way after I told Lazio there was no way I was getting back with him.
*Hm?” Maynard shook himself out of whatever thoughts he was drowning in and answered Lazio.
‘What would you do if Christina got pregnant from you? Would you accept her back into your life?” Lazio asked him, putting him under pressure.
I mean, there is a difference between Christina and Valerie.” Maynard shrugged, not giving a straight answer.
‘You know what I mean. Let’s just say you have a better mate than Christina and she gets pregnant from you. Would you stop pursuing Enya?” Lazio asked Maynard, who lowered his head before he shook it. No!” he murmured, and everybody let out a tiring gasp at him.
‘You guys are unbelievable. It is as if these she-wolves are only toys for you. If you guys truly loved Enya so much, you would have gone against the odds and been with her. You even had her for two years! Lazio! two years is enough time to get your shit together and mend your relationship with her, but you didn’t do it until you realized she was finally gone.” Janet lectured the two, “I remember her coming here all alone and crying on the tombstone of Thiago. Did anyone of you check on her that night? No! then why are you now trying to come in a way of her happiness? Why make her go through so much emotion now?” As she continued to yell at them, I saw Theo looking my way.
’You!” she pointed at Lazio next. “You are going to lose your mate and also your baby
because you can’t get over someone who you pushed away from yourself,” Janet
growled at Lazio for not thinking even a tiny bit about Valerie.
‘I get it that the mate bond between you all was created by Enya’s mother—,” Janet’s
words got interrupted when Kellice shook her head and stepped into the middle.
‘Wait! who told you guys that?” she asked, watching our faces one by one.
‘We met Emelia back at Maynard’s pack,” I answered with a sigh.
‘No! that’s a piece of wrong information and Emelia knows about it,’ Kellice disagreeing
with it made me fear what exactly the truth was.
‘So our mate bonds are not rigged?” Lazio had a weird smile of triumph on his lips when
asking that question.
‘They are but—,” Shutting down hopes in Lazio’s heart was Kell ice’s first priority, but the
pause she took made us realize there was something else she knew that was a bit
hard for her to open up about.
‘Kellice! Do you know who created these mate bonds? Was it Emelia?” I asked her,
approaching her with my heart pumping loudly in my chest. For some reason, we all
thought the only bad person was my mother. But it appears that Emelia wasn’t any less.
I-don’t know. If I tell you, would you trust me in working with you?” she asked me with her
eyes getting watery.
Something didn’t seem right.
After I nodded to her, she held my hand and then took a deep breath to mumble, “The
mother witch cursed you with the mate bonds to take care of the broken souls. It was
never the other way around. They were never made your mates so that they would take Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
care of you, but you were the one getting punished by helping them break free from the
curse,” as she explained everything, I just slid my hands out of her hands and stepped
away from her.
