Chapter 304
Chapter 304
“He is passed out.” Lazlo walked downstairs after tucking Thiago into bed. We had come back to the cabin.
“I will go grab you a latte. You have been up and running this entire time.” Lazlo wrapped his arms around my body and hugged me from the back.
“I am so glad I have you with me,” I whispered, turning around in his arms and hugging him tightly.
“I am always here for you and with you, Enya!” he answered, as he cupped my face to kiss me on the lips, “I will be back in a few minutes, okay?” He had to leave to grab some stuff from our room too. It didn’t seem like Thiago would be able to regain his senses anytime soon. Somebody will have to stay behind with him.
Lazlo left the cabin while I boiled some water to help Maynard with his injuries. He got badly hurt when Thiago attacked him. It was a relief that none of them got scratched.
“Here.” I put the pot down and offered him help. Maynard was sitting on the couch shirtless, trying to reach for his back with his hand.
I grabbed the cloth out of his hands and dunked it in the hot water. His body shuddered at the first interaction between the damp cloth and his skin, but then he relaxed.
“I am so sorry you had to go through it with us,” I apologized, genuinely feeling bad. He left me because he wanted to have a normal life, but little did we know it was one thing after another that kept us occupied and connected
“It’s okay.” He answered, “Can I ask you something?” He then straightened his back, and I felt his bones cracking again. He was adjusting them inside his body, and it was the most painful thing to hear.
“Sure, what is it?” I asked.
“Do you think if I had stayed with you, I mean, if we hadn’t broken up and none of that mess had happened, would you have accepted others?” He turned to me and looked me straight in the eye. I swear my body quavered.
“Well, since we are talking hypothetically, I really don’t know.” I tried to play it cool, but he shook his head at me in disapproval for not taking him seriously.
“I am being serious. Do you think you would have listened to me if I had asked you to not accept others?” He repeated his question, and I went into deep thought
“I believe everything happens for a reason. You found Christina, and I found my mates. Let’s not talk about what might and could have happened,” I stated, but the moment I tried getting up from the couch, he held my hand tightly and made me sit down again.
“Are you okay, Maynard?” I asked since he was acting up. His eyes were filled with tears. It was probably the medicine Lazlo gave him and then the pain he was feeling, but I didn’t want him to make any mistakes.
“I am just in a little pain.” He whispered, “Can I put my head in your lap for a moment?” He asked, shocking me with his question. I wasn’t even given enough time to respond to his plea, and he had already settled his head in my lap. I was surprised and speechless for a moment.
“I just don’t know what is happening to me, but I am feeling lost again.” He murmured sleepily, hugging my thighs and digging his face into my crotch. I gulped as he did that.
“It will be fine,” I mumbled hesitantly, praying he falls asleep and nothing else happens. Christina went through hell for him. I would never want him to cheat on her and break her heart.
“Hmm! I am beginning to think I made a mistake,” He uttered, and then his body relaxed. He must have fallen asleep, but his words stuck in my
mind. What did he mean by he thought he had made a mistake?
“Maynard! Do–,” I paused when he suddenly raised his face from my lap and cupped my face in his hands. I thought he had fallen asleep. But Oh Goddess! I have missed his touch so much.
No! I cannot. He played me big time. I don’t want that toxic relationship back. Besides, he is not himself, and he is also not mine.
“Maynard! Why don’t you rest a little, and we can talk about it tomorrow?” I requested as I expected him to back away, but he didn’t.
“I just want you so badly,” he whispered on my lips, bringing his face even closer to mine. I was panicking, watching his eyes travel down to my lips.
“M-” I was hushed down when he brushed his lips against mine. It was a weird feeling, something I had not felt in so long towards him.
“It feels good, doesn’t it?” He pulled back, gulping and then taking my bottom lip between his lips. I placed my hands on his chest as I was gently trying to push him back. I couldn’t put too much pressure or he would land on his back on the bruised area. NôvelDrama.Org content.
He then tilted his head and sucked my entire lips, holding my face tightly in his hands while also deepening the kiss. I wasn’t participating, just making little moves to get out of his grasp. I was beginning to feel like a bad person.
“No! You need to st-top—p!” I stammered as I broke myself free and turned my face to the other side. His eyes showed pain before he put his head down in my lap once again. I stayed still before I raised
my face and trembled at the sight.
“Brilliant!” I heard someone clap and click a video of us. I jolted up and pulled my body from under Maynard’s head. I was on my feet in no time while Maynard changed his side and didn’t wake up.
“So this is what’s going on here?” He tapped his phone near his temple and clicked his tongue in disappointment.
“You are cheating on everyone, betraying everyone?” His accusations made my heart skip a beat.

I will be updating 5 chapters daily. I am trying to quickly finish the book but instead of rushing at scenes, I am going to update more. I don’t want to rush and leave things unexplained.
