Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

“Thank you so much for coming,” I said to Marko when rolling into the car.

“Is everything alright? You look kind of worried.” He asked, attempting to hit the road after he realized it was an emergency. I don’t know why my mind thought it was the right time to pay Corbin a visit, but I knew he would be harassing Janet in the morning until he made her accept him, and I will not let it happen.

“I have a friend to save,” I whispered, rubbing my palms together, and looked outside the window. Marko was thirty- five, with black hair and hazel eyes. He was a heavy built man with a genuine nature.

“You are headed to the alpha king’s mansion?” He then asked after realizing the address would take me directly to the devil’ s den.

“He has the answers to my questions.” I was being vague, trying to understand Corbin’s game. When I punished his father, I noticed Corbin didn’t interrupt. It surprised me until he started acting up. He was the type who knew his intervention would get him in trouble, so he waited until he was in power, and now he was taking revenge left and right.

“I will come inside with you.” Marko offered his help, fixing the rearview mirror to steal a glance at me, “And no, I am not saying this because I think you are weak; I am being realistic. You will need a werewolf by your side. Although, I don’t know how much I can fight him, I can always distract him.” He sounded genuine with his help. But I refused to drag more people into my mess.

“It is alright. Can you wait outside only?” I asked, and after a brief pause, he nodded.

“I genuinely appreciate your help. I do. But I think it is better that I don’t make him think we are ambushing him,” I stated again to explain the situation to him. It was nice to have someone by my side.
