Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

104-The Cursed One Among Us! 

“Lazlo! tell me that’s not what you are planning for. Because if that’s the case, I am not going with you. I will go alone and I make sure I save him from whatever you save planned for him,” I squared up pretty confidently. He first shoved his phone in his pocket and then scoffed at me. 

“Are you kidding me? Do you really think I will sacrifice a friend to come off as a hero? He already made me a hero twice, I don’t want to gain any more medals from his name,” he reminded me of the academy and the wood’s incident. Where basically everybody thought Maynard and Lazlo saved the day 

“He is not a monster,” I added once we calmed down a bit. 

“I know he is not. But we know him, others don’t.” Lazlo looked comfortable enough to have that conversation with me now 

“But why is his wolf being called a monster? Have you seen him in that form the others are talking about?” I wasn’t sure what others saw. But it couldn’t be a powerful wolf only. Or else they would have never made such a huge deal out of it. 

“I don’t know. I haven’t seen that form of his but I guess he had been worse from the last time. It is just that we all had been so occupied by the nonsense in our lives that we forgot about him,” I noticed Lazlo was the one too worried for Thiago. I remember when I told Maynard about Thiago last night, he almost didn’t even care. 

That change occurred after I accepted him. 

“Then we are going to save him?” | inquired and gestured for him to keep walking. 

“Yeah! If we can. I am not sure how long he plans to stay in his beastly self but if he hadn’t returned, it means-,” he didn’t finish talking because I did it for him. 

“Then it means he is still transitioned in that form,” I said, walking ahead of him. I am sure he didn’t know what I was capable of, but I believe it was time I practice my magic after a little break.
