Tasting All My Mates

Chapter 476

476-Not Having Sex Tonight.

“Enya! Please chill out,” Theo had said as he led me into the guestroom after Emelia’s words had rendered me speechless. I couldn't even stay there for a minute and face everyone.

No! You don’t understand. It is unfair to everyone. How could my mother do this to you all?” I was crying in anger and frustration.

Now that Emelia has told me the truth about my relationship with everyone, I feel disgusted with my mother even more.

"She didn't only ruin our lives with her curses; she decided to punish you some more by tying you all to me. That was her way of making sure you guys suffered even after she was gone.” I was walking back and forth in the room, feeling guilty.

Lazio and Maynard were standing in the corner, watching me. I always thought it wasn't true, but now I can tell that my mother did cross all the boundaries when making others suffer.

“It is not suffering, though. It had always been a blessing to be your mate,” Theo said, without carrying an ounce of hatred for anyone in his voice.

"You don't understand. She knew she had made terrible enemies. Those who would come after her daughter so in order to keep her daughter protected, she — she made you my guardian angels,” I bit my tongue when talking about the mate bond.

How could she steal their chances of having a fated mate by creating a false mate bond?

"Did you two know?" I then turned to Maynard and Lazio, who were silently staring at us. The way they looked down made me realize why they did me dirty.

"Is it why you two—Oh Gosh!” it all made sense now. From Lazio changing the way he looks at me to Maynard turning his back on me in the past two years. It all made sense.

I didn't even know if I could be mad at them anymore. They have suffered their entire childhood like anything and now they were forced to take care of someone who wasn't even their mate, but their abuser’s daughter.

You have been through enough stress already, Enya. Will you stop blaming yourself for everything?” Theo snapped at me after trying to calm me down for the last few minutes.

“I understand a lot happened in our childhoods, but you were not spared from any of it either. You lost your parents, and then you were put in a place where ugly people tortured you, day in, day out. From losing our baby to losing your wolf, you have endured a lot. None of this or that is yours or ours mistake. So let's finish accusing each other of that first and then deal with the issues.”

His volume was so high that I was sure Emelia heard him just fine from outside the room.

"He is right. You were not at fault; we were. We shouldn't have held grudges in our hearts against you for something you didn't even do,” Lazio sighed as he admitted making a mistake. However, they were still not getting my point.

It is normal to be angry with someone who is the child of your abuser and only put in your life to remind you that you are still caged to your abuser.

But since Theo didn't like seeing me suffer, I didn't say a word after that.

“Let's rest and plan for tomorrow in the morning. We are all tired, and Enya has been through some tough times in the last few hours. She deserves a good sleep." Maynard straightened his back and gave me a weak smile when telling us goodnight.

Theo and I were staying in the same room, while Maynard decided to share a room with Lazio. I could tell Maynard was too afraid of being alone with Christina now.

What are you thinking about?" Theo asked me to lock the door after the other two had left.

Does that make our relationship less perfect?” I asked Theo, who let out a little snicker and approached me. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"Mates or not! I don't care, Enya. I just know that I love you more than I could ever love anyone else.” He cupped my face in his hands and planted a kiss on my forehead. “You know, on the other side of the portal, we no longer feel the same,” he said, sitting down in bed with me.

“How so?” I asked, watching him hold my hand and gently run his finger over my palm.

“Our feelings change when we are there. It is like we no longer have our special powers or feelings. Which means we don't feel mate bond even if we have our mate there with us. That's the thing about the other side. However, I still felt for you. Thiago felt for you. It was at that time that even I knew that our world is not this side of the portal, but our world is where you are. Enya!

Forget about the mate bond. I am always yours, and you are always mine. And nobody, not even the Moon Goddess, can change that," he spoke sweetly, smiling as he kept staring into my eyes.

I closed my palm and caged his finger inside, making him smirk sexily.

"I Know you like me in your fist,” he joked, making me frown and push him away gently.

"I am feeling like if I haven't met Mark—,” before I could finish, his grunt made me shut up.

“Again with the blaming yourself. Enya! That was their fate. Now hush! And go to bed," he warned, "with me.” And there it was: the infamous smirk.

However, we were not planning on doing anything tonight. I have lost a friend, and Theo respected me, wanting some time to mourn him. We did cuddle because when I lied down, he invited himself over to my side and silently pulled me into his embrace.

After closing my eyes, I thought I would sleep peacefully, but the thought of knowing Emelia from somewhere didn't leave me alone.

I kept recalling every moment of my life and trying to spot her in it, but I couldn't. Then where in hell do I remember her from?
