“And that’s when I was injected with that liquid. I remember him saying something similar about triggering me.” I sat them down to explain the whole story to them. Where Kellice looked like she was contemplating and calculating everything, Theo, on the other hand, was grunting nonstop and cracking his knuckles.
“I am going to kill that a*shole,” Theo muttered, getting up from the grass to walk away when I rushed after him and held his arm. He stopped and lowered his gaze at my hand on his arm. “Enya! He cannot f*cking touch you, hurt you, and then walk around freely,” he yelled. I felt his muscles pop out even more with my fingers tangled around them.
“That’s what he wants. He wants us to attack him so that he can look like a victim and execute us all out of his way,” | argued with Theo, who groaned and rolled his perfectly beautiful eyes at me.
“Stop rolling your eyes at me!” I snapped at him. He shook his body and then breathed heavily.
“I am no-t — I am not rolling my eyes at you. I am angry at him,” he calmed himself down and sweetly said to me, “but I am sorry if I have offended you,” he said very sweetly. The change in his tone and mannerisms when interacting with me was noticeable.
“If you two are done romancing, I will need something to be done.” Kellice’s interruption turned my cheeks red.
“We are not— romancing,” I only said it under my breath because I was too embarrassed to say it out loud. The thing is that I have been very physically active with Thiago in the past. But now it was Theo, someone who was new to me. So even the thought of being naked with him was turning my cheeks crimson.
“I will need your blood to do some testing and find out what he injected in you,” she came in front of me to speak to me directly while Theo was standing beside me, rubbing his fingers over his sharp jawline and probably brainstorming over something.
“Okay, how are you—,” I asked and shut up when she raised her brow at me. “Got it. I thought you were going to suck my blood.” I shrugged, realizing how st*pid I sounded.
“I will get the injection and meet you in your bedroom,” Kellice said, walking away from us. I had been up the whole day and hadn’t rested for a single minute. So when the mention of the bedroom was brought up, I felt like rushing to bed.
“You must be tired,” Theo whispered, snapping out of his thoughts.
“I am.” I nodded, strolling away with him to the bedroom. “You went awfully silent. What were you thinking about?” I asked him, watching him stare at the ground and not even raise his head.
“Hm?” He looked at me. “Oh sorry! I am thinking about— you and Corbin,” he said awkwardly, holding the bedroom door open for me.
Now that I didn’t have to worry about Kellice or Theo’s reasoning behind coming back into our lives, I was able to scan Thiago’s bedroom with ease.
“What about us?” I asked, going full throttle to learn everything I could about his options. The entire room was black and red. It was cozy too, but also a bit creepy. The red wall behind the bed and the black curtains were giving him mysterious vibes.
“If he wanted you as his mate, he would have forced you to move in with him by now. Why didn’t he?” he asked, more like a question from himself as he wanted to solve the mystery.
“Why was he trying to get Janet to move in and not you?” Theo was walking around the bedroom while I had settled into his soft bed. I knew for a fact that if I rested my back on that soft mattress, I would fall asleep instantly. So I kept sitting in the corner and watching him solve this mess.
“Maybe because he knew hurting her would trigger me more?” I suggested the option, and Theo stopped dead in his tracks. He turned to me and narrowed his eyes at me.
“Because he knew you have been through so much pain that nothing triggers you when it comes to your own self. Which makes me reach for another question. Why would he want to trigger you?” He asked, and I too felt like a fool for not questioning Corbin’s actions before.
“We are doing it so that you can get your wolf back, but why is he doing that?” Theo mumbled, making my body shrink and my arms wrap around my body.
Corbin’s entire mission was to somehow get me to submit. Then why would he want me to have a wolf?
“I don’t know. Honestly speaking, I am just so tired.” I gave up. Leaning my head back, I closed my eyes to stop the formation of tears. It was exhausting to be around so many people who Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
wanted to take advantage of me.
“Hey!” Theo rushed over, and I only opened my eyes and raised my head when I felt him sit in the bed in front of me.
“You know I am with you now, right? So don’t feel burdened. I will not let anyone lay a finger on you, Enya.” Theo was staring into my eyes when he was consoling me.
“How about we forget about it for a minute and focus on us instead?” The moment he changed the subject, a smirk covered his lips.
I had to roll my eyes and lean my head back to avoid him.
“That is so mean. Would you have done the same if it were Thiago?” He asked, and I felt a little sigh heaving across his lips. He sounded upset.
“Set him free, and then I am all yours,” I mumbled.
“Be mine, and I will set him free,” he retorted. As I raised my head to stare at him, I found his eyes stuck to my lips.
