Chapter 231
Tasting All My Mates
231 He Begs For A Second Chance âI cannot let it take you two,â Thiago whispered while adjusting his eyes on me. âI have. always loved you, and will love you forever. And I just need to leave now or it will consume you,â he whispered. I watched him walk over to the edge, and my heart started to lose its beat.
âNo! Please no!â I was begging him, requesting him to stay, but he just walked to the edge and stood there looking at the abyss.
âThiago! Donât do it, please. I will die if anything hapâââ I couldnât finish my words. Before ! could even tell him I couldnât live without him, he jumped off.
âThiagooooo!â I screamed my lungs out till I woke myself up.
I was breathing and panting. Even though the morning had arrived, Lazlo was still asleep. I draped my shoulders, swept the sweat off my face, and lay down in Lazloâs arms again.
âIt was our worst nightmare, wasnât it?â Nia must have woken up at the same time as me.
âIt was,âI whispered, watching the clear sky.
âI think itâs time we stop lying around and do something about our mates.â Nia suggested, and I couldnât help but frown at her.
âWhat do you mean by that?â I asked.
Donât you think there is a reason we are given so many broken mates? We need to mend them,â she advised while remembering the nightmare I had.
It was honestly what Iâve been thinking myself. I need to fix things now. I woke him after it was too late for school. We walked downstairs together and took a shower to get ready for school.
Before leaving for school, I had to make a run to the bathroom and puke my guts out. Lazlo peeped into the bathroom and stared at me in silence for a moment before he got inside to help hold my hand back while I threw up some more.
âEnya! you are not fine. You should skip school and rest,â he suggested after he walked me out to the room.
âI am already behind. I cannot skip any more lectures,â I replied tiredly, feeling dizzy and out of breath âDid you eat anything?â Lazlo sat down with me and held my hand to stroke it between his hands.
âThe thought of food right now is making me even sicker,â I sighed, pinching his finger to tease him.
âOkay, letâs not talk about food right now,â he shyly whispered back at me. I found him leaning his face on me and kissing my forehead. It felt amazing.
âAh! Sibling goals,â the person passing the comment was Zander. I wondered what made him come back to the room again.
âWhat happened to my mate? Is my baby sick?â Zander knelt down to get a good view of my face. I rolled my eyes and lifted my head from Lazloâs shoulder.
âZander, can you leave her alone?â Lazlo asked nicely, but Zander ignored him.
âWhat can I get for you?â Zander asked me directly, sounding not very cocky all the time.
âThere is nothing I could ever need from you,â I responded to him a bit rudely.
âCome on! Is it still about that whole Thiago thing? You should be thanking me for helping you get over him. Look, now you have accepted Lazlo and are doing stuff with him, so why am I the only one who is getting neglected?â Zander complained, expecting I would be a fool enough to believe him.
âYou tricked us. Do you really expect me to forget all that and accept you affectionately? You are the reason Thiago is hurt today. I can never forgive you for that alone,â I raised my voice since he didnât understand me before.
âHuh! again with him. How do you accept her lying in your arms and talking about him? What happened to the typical alphas and their egos?â Zander taunted Lazlo, who waved his hand at him to dismiss him.
âThis is why you are not getting closer to me ever again,â I chuckled as I proved my point about him being too toxic. The look of bewilderment on his face came as a joke to me.
âSo what if I mend my ways? You gave all your other mates a second chance. Why not me?â As he asked for a second chance, it hit me with a feeling of déjà vu.
âI need to go. I cannot stay behind for this nonsense,â I excused, getting up to leave and instantly losing my balance. One second delay and Zander approached me first instead of Lazlo. He wrapped his arms around me to support my body and help me sit down.
âI will get you fresh juice to help you keep your strength,â Zander pulled away from me when he saw me frown at him.
âCan you stop? Her mate is right here to take care of her.â Lazlo stepped between us and gave me his back while facing Zander.
âIt is funny because all you did was make her sit down and rest her head on your shoulder.â Not everything is about romance. She is definitely sick. We need to get her some food and medicines,â
Zander was on a mission to come out as more capable than my other mates.
I was not ready for any more of my mateâs battles. But here I was, sitting here and watching them argue while I urged puking again.
âI am here for that. I will do that. You just need to fuck off,â Lazlo grunted at Zander, who shook his head in disbelief and peeped at me from Lazloâs shoulders.
âI will send someone to bring your food and medicines.â He informed me, âAs for you, maybe you should stop controlling her every little action.â His comment hit Lazlo hard, because the next thing I know, Lazlo is putting his hands on Zander.
âGuys, stop!â I yelled, feeling nauseous.
âHe is the one causing troubles, not me,â Lazlo was seeming offended that I called them both out.
âFine. I am sorry. Zander! Please leave us alone,â I demanded privacy, and without uttering another word, he walked out of the door.
Soon after meeting the pillow, I fell asleep.
