Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

"So you did come here to spy on me and make a mess out of my life," I yelled the instant Corbin returned to the room after he kicked her out of the room and locked the door. I could tell she was still outside.

"I did. I wanted to see how your mates were treating you. I know you don't think I care for you, but that is not the case. I do!" He yelled back at me. This was the first time I had noticed him acting aggressively. Usually, he was just poking fun at everyone and annoying us.

"Well, that's the difference between you and my mates. They care about each other," I said in such a low whisper that he responded with a laugh only because of the lack of confidence I expressed.
