350-They Play Too Much

“I promise I didn’t hide the diary. Somebody stole it from me.” I started talking the instant Maynard

showed up with Christina.

“But why didn’t you tell me it was your mother who ruined my childhood?” He yelled at me, and I took a

few steps back from him nervously.

“How could I? I was ashamed of the shit my mother had done. I didn’t want you all to see me in that

light.” I whispered in guilt, “I wanted to read the whole thing first. And then I thought you would want to

hear it from your mom when you confront her.” | bet whatever I said sounded like a bunch of excuses to

them.

“I don’t know what to say anymore, Enya. I wanted to read about what they did to me just so my mother

is unable to lie to me about anything, but you took away that chance from me,” Maynard said, finally

turning his gaze away from my face.

“I didn’t want to. I didn’t know the diary was wi—,” before | could even finish, Maynard sprinted away

and I was left alone with Christina and Lazio. Christina passed me a sad glance, ex cusing herself

because she had to go check on Maynard.

“I will go be with him for now,” Lazlo said as he hastened away from me as if he couldn’t stand near

me. At that mo ment, I felt like I had lost everything.

I sat on the ground and raised my face to stare at the star rysky, my eyes filling with tears.

289 Vouchers “I don’t even know how you would have reacted after find ing out it was my mother who

had cursed you. Would you have hated me too?” | asked the sky, but I was talking to that missing mate

of mine who took my heart away with him.

‘I don’t think he would have,’ Nia said. ‘I know for a fact that he would have never even made us feel

responsible for anything. Thiago was and is the only mate of ours who has never judged us.’ She

sounded so down that my heart ached for her. But she was right. Thiago would have never done what

they were doing.

‘But I cannot blame them either. Maynard’s entire child hood was cursed due to my mother. Maybe he

was expecting me to not hide the truth from him.’ I excused Maynard’s be havior. He was hurt and had

every right to be upset with me for hiding my mother’s sin from him. However, I did not hide the diary. I

got up from the ground and walked over to the edge to stare down without giving it much thought when

my eyes picked up something.

I saw Moana walking out of the academy in haste and al most sneakily. She was looking around when

she was rushing towards the road.

I kept staring at her until she disappeared, and then Corbin came into my sight. He left the academy

after her in the same manner. He wasn’t the type to hide from anyone, so where was he headed that he

didn’t want anybody to catch him?

W ochers I think they are up to something,’ | whispered, turning around and rushing downstairs to

follow them. I understand my life is full of a mess right now, but there is one person I still can’t stop

worrying about.

‘I am going to follow them and make them confess to their plans,’ I said. It was just a fact that,

somewhere deep inside, I felt like I needed to fix things. Since everybody had been look ing at me like I

was a big culprit, I found my brain wanting to prove to them that I was not a bad person. I walked

straight towards the exit and left after them. I was able to catch up with them, but I made sure I kept a

safe distance between us.

It was clearly suspicious that the two were not walking to gether. She was a few steps ahead of him,

and he was follow ing her. After about an hour-long walk, I found them getting marched inside an

abandoned house. After Moana entered, Corbin stayed outside for three minutes and then followed her

inside.

‘I knew it. I knew they were here for a reason.’ It was a good way to be helpful and solve an issue

instead of causing one, like my mother.

I rushed over to the house and walked inside with my heart beating inside my chest. I had prepared

myself for any thing worse. The house looked like it had been abandoned in sheer panic. There was

furniture all over the place, and even the dirty dishes were resting on the floor. There was a living room

upon entrance, and attached to it was a kitchen. Then there were stairs that led to the second floor,

where I believe

they went

Taking the stairs, I reached the very first room where I ex pected to find them. I kind of felt like I was

going to witness the same shit as I witnessed when my mom was cursing Thia go.

“I can do this,” I told myself, hyping myself up. I slammed the door open and walked inside, all

prepared. However, I was met with disappointment and guilt the moment I saw what

they were doing.

“Hey!” Moana complained, quickly pulling her pants up, adjusting her dress, and jumping out of the

bed.

“Babe!” Corbin looked my way and gasped. “I don’t know when she slid into bed with me, but trust me, I

came here alone.” His words confused me. I stared at him as he rolled out of bed, looking for his pants.

I was stunned by his reaction.

“Why do you look so sad? You said you want to have your mates and I can have mine,” he was

yammering out of his ass, so I decided to just leave. I couldn’t even apologize for walking in on them.

The moment I took a step back to turn around, I bumped into someone.

“Lazlo!” I said, watching his jaw clench at my sight.
