Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

456-Welcome Back, Mother
Maynard’s POV:
Ever since I didn’t take Enya’s side and relied on my silence, I ruined all my chances with her. She told me she would accept me in a heartbeat, something I have craved like a child craves attention, yet when the time arrived, I f*cked up.
I wish I had looked past all the stuff Christina has told me and her sacrifices and just accepted Enya. Look at me now, I am going crazy thinking Enya will be in bed with that Lycan.
How could I be so dumb?
‘I didn’t have to sacrifice in order to pay Christina back for all the times she made it seem like she gave up herself for me.’ I spoke to May, who had been accusing me of ruining our chances with Enya.
‘I wish we had not listened to Christina at all.’ He reminded me once again of who had become the problem.
‘She told me I could be with Enya, so I did just that. I slept with Enya, only for Christina to say she doesn’t want it anymore and my d*mba*s didn’t even see the red flags she waved in my face.’ I was walking toward our bedroom to have a word with her. It’s been days since Theo exposed her, and we haven’t talked. I didn’t even sleep in the same bedroom as she did.
The thing that bothered me was that when Enya rejected me on my wedding day and slapped me, it didn’t hurt my ego. But then Christina found out about it, and she kept telling me
how disrespectful Enya was to me. I still didn’t think of it, but then she used that excuse in front of Enya and made it seem like I took revenge on her for that slap.
‘My only fault was not holding Enya’s hand when she needed me the most,’ I grumpily muttered while reaching the room. Before I could even barge in, I heard her on the phone.

It took me by surprise because she was mentioning Enya’s name. Not only that, she was lying.
“She seduced Maynard!” I heard her talk about us and spread false news once again, and this time I just lost my mind.
I couldn’t get myself to stand here and let her lie in Enya’s
name anymore.
“What the f*ck?” I yelled and slammed the door open. She panicked after watching me and hung up instantly.
“Were you lying to Lazlo?” I yelled at her. My heart seemed to be pounding and throbbing in my temples. She looked petrified, too, which she should be.
“I was telling the truth,” After grabbing all the strength she could muster, she yelled back at me.
“The truth? Do you want me to remind you of the truth?” I took a step closer to her, making her step back and drop her phone.
“The truth is that you told me I could be with her. You said I can sleep with her, and later I can accept her. You said you would be okay with her being my mate as well. But then you started changing your statements and backing away from
your promises. You flooded me with guilt and reminded me of what you had done for me over and over again until I went mute, like a dumb a*shole. You know what I am beginning to think? You are jealous of Enya. You just hated her because everybody loved her.” Every word that I spoke made her eyes grow bigger, and a gasp heaved across her lips.
“I am jealous of Enya?” She asked me in a whisper, big tears flowing down her eyes, but they didn’t bother me anymore. Christina had become so good at shedding tears that now I could no longer tell when she was genuinely hurt.
“You are.” I nodded,
“I am not jealous of her. What does she have that I don’t have—,” she cried, screaming as she displayed her hatred for Enya by acting like a maniac.
“Oh, you are not ready to hear that,” I scoffed, laughing at me for losing a gem like Enya.
“Then why did you accept me? Why did you never change yourself for her, but you changed yourself for me?” She stopped crying just so that she could yell at me.
“When did I ever tell you that I changed for you?” I asked in a peaceful tone, and her body turned lifeless. She dropped her hands to the side of her body and kept staring at my face cluelessly.
“I did it because I wanted to show Enya I can be trusted now,” I explained. “I am guilty of dragging you along, but you are not a saint either. I told you many times, even before our mating ceremony, that I was not into you. But you kept telling me it would be fine and that I would forget Enya in no time.
Sorry! But it didn’t happen. I still remember her to this day. I feel for her and I—,” I stopped when she lunged at me and placed her hand on my mouth to silence me.
“Don’t say it,” she whispered in tears.
