Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

490-They Played Me.

'I was supposed to have a famil—y with you," Theo seemed to have lost so much blood that his mind was now all over the place.

*What is going o— oh shit!" Lazio and Maynard shouted in unison, but that was all they could mumble when they came out of the deep woods and saw Theo in my lap.

"He got shot by an arrow. We need to help him." I lifted my head to speak to them, but they were staring at him in my lap.

When they didn't say anything, I looked down to see why Theo wasn't moving at all. That's when I realized fate had once again played a nasty game with me and had stolen the love of my life from me.

'Theo!" I whispered, "Why is he not moving?" I asked Maynard and Lazio. By now, I have stopped crying. My body felt restless, and my eyes were shedding big tears, but my mind refused to believe I had lost him.

"Enya!" Maynard held my hand to pull me away from Theo, who had stopped moving entirely by now.

"Wait! he is— why is he not answering to me?" I yelled at Maynard when he dragged me away from Theo by force, "What are you doing? Let me speak to him." I got angry at him for trying to pull me away from my Thiago.

Lazio knelt beside Theo and gently touched his wrist. The way he closed his eyes and rested Theo's hand on Theo's stomach made me want to throw up.

’No!" I shouted from afar, being held tightly by Maynard, who was refusing to let me get closer to Theo.

’The arrow seemed to be laced with the exact kind of poison that can kill a lycan," Lazio murmured when getting up from the ground. Maynard started looking around in agitation as he feared the one who attacked Thiago must be around somewhere.
