227-That One Crazy Mate
âYou know what I was thinking? We should all do it together, a big orgy,â Zander took it too far when the
boys reached him. Maynard and Lazlo were confused, eyeing us to get a hint from us.
âOf course, you are not allowed to be a part of it.â Zander commented when steadily passing closer.
âWhat did you say?â Lazlo got between us and almost headâbutted Zander.
âCalm down, Macho!â Zander let out a laugh, âI was just saying Enya wouldnât be a part of this big orgy.
Obviously Christina will be left out as well. So we can invite some other girls to bang them.â Zander
grabbed Willowâs hand the instant she tried to escape.
âLet me go,â Willow whispered a plea, but he wasnât letting her go.
âZander! Let her go,â Maynard raising his voice for Willow surprised everyone, especially Christina
âZander!â Maynard grunted and the next thing we know, he lunged at Zander. He landed a punch on
Zanderâs chin and knocked him down. The commotion got the attention of other students. They rushed
out of the rooms to see what was happening.
âMaynard!â Christina got between them and pushed Maynard back. âYou are hitting my brother for this
hooker?â she shouted at him in tears while helping Zander up on his feet.
âShe ruined your previous relationship. Are you not even a little bit angry with her? Do you even care
about my family?â She seemed to be ready to sob, but was keeping it together.
Thatâs when we heard Mr. Tripper clearing his throat to get our attention.
âWe are going through crises and this is what is happening here?â Mr. Tripper eyed us to step away
from each other.
âWe have a hooker in our academy.â Zander shamelessly called her out in front of everyone.
âOkay! Thatâs enough. Everybody back to your room. And you guys, to your room,â Mr. Tripper ordered
us to get into our room with Willow. It was so awkward explaining everything to him in the beginning,
but thankfully, Lazlo did a great job telling Mr. Tripper everything without name calling anyone.
âI am very disappointed with you all,â Mr. Tripper was shaking his head and striding into our room. We
have gathered in our room with Willow standing in the corner like she is a disease.
âTell me, how did you meet her?â Mr. Tripper asked Maynard, his hands on his waist and acting like he
was a Saint himself.
âIt was Keith who introduced her to me,â Maynard answered. He was sitting in his bed with his face
down and Christina sitting on the chair beside him. She was increasingly looking annoyed with Willow.
âThis is unacceptable. Is she even an actual student?â Mr. Tripper proceeded to ask.
âI donât know. I didnât know anything about her.â Maynard sounded honest in his responses, but Mr.
Tripper was not buying it.
âHm! I have called Keith in here. Letâs see what he has to say,â Mr. Tripper said while walking from one
corner of the room to the other.
As we waited here, Keith knocked on the door and got invited to the madness. The moment he spotted
Willow sobbing in the corner, he understood what went down.
âSit down Keith,â Mr. Tripper muttered, ânow tell me why did you introduce a hooker to the school?â
âI donât know what you are talking about,â Keith straight up lied and shook his head.
âKeith! We know everything,â Zander smirked, holding back his laugh but pissing off Keith.
âI donât know what that means. Who is the hooker here?â He shrugged his shoulders to pretend like he
has no idea what they were talking about.
âI was hired by him. I am not a student,â after Willow was done crying for minutes, she exposed Keith.
âThatâs a lie,â Keith mumbled angrily, glaring at her to not mess with him.
âOkay, thatâs it. Iâm going to take you two to the principal in the morning. Letâs get this sorted out.â Once
it was confirmed the rest of us had nothing to do with this matter, Mr. Tripper took them out of our room.
Now that Mr. Tripper left the room with Willow and Keith, we were kind of left to stare at each other in
silence.
âWhat happened to Oswin?â I asked Lazlo, focusing on Oswin for now. Christina was patching up her
brother while Maynard was sitting alone, hunching over with his elbows on his knees and his face
buried.
âHe is in a very bad state. It seemed like they messed him up badly,â Lazlo answered, sitting
comfortably in the bed with me.
âHe must be in the woods looking for potions and herbs.â I rolled my eyes at Oswin. I was extremely
worried about him. He had always been there for him, so even the thought of him in pain was hurting
me.
âWhat do you mean by that?â I inquired curiously. I was watching Maynard sitting all alone. And I felt
bad for him. I get it. He messed up, but in his head, he was not doing anything wrong. He was sadly
getting caught in the twinâs mess.
âThen why was he in the woods?â I asked Lazlo after shaking myself awake from the sea of thoughts I
was drowning in.
âPoppy asked him to take her out into the woods. She complained to him that he never does anything
exciting with her.â Lazlo telling me it was Poppyâs idea that Oswin take her into the woods shocked me
into my skin. I was stunned.
âWhat? Wait a minute. So Poppy was with him? What happened to her?â I questioned, genuinely
concerned because Oswin loved this girl.
âThatâs the thing. When the rogues attacked, Poppy kind of ran away without looking back.â Lazlo
answered.
have thought he was coming back for her,â Lazlo tried to excuse her cowardice, but it didnât sit well with
me.
âSo you are saying if I didnât have my powers, I would leave my mates behind?â The fact
that I really didnât have my powers for so long yet I always cared for my mates was a sign I am not like
Poppy.
Before our conversation can turn into an argument, I saw somebody blowing up my phone. It seemed
to be someone whose number wasnât on my phone.
But just by reading through the messages, I knew who it was.
Unknown: Are you missing me?
Unknown: Ah! I know you see me as a monster, but a monster loves to come back for his prey, doesnât
he?
Unknown: You can surround yourself with an army of Mates, Enya. But I am coming back to claim you.
Unknown: You are and forever will be my mate only.
A/N:
