CHAPTER 227

227-That One Crazy Mate

“You know what I was thinking? We should all do it together, a big orgy,” Zander took it too far when the boys reached him. Maynard and Lazlo were confused, eyeing us to get a hint from us.

“Of course, you are not allowed to be a part of it.” Zander commented when steadily passing closer.

“What did you say?” Lazlo got between us and almost head–butted Zander.

“Calm down, Macho!” Zander let out a laugh, “I was just saying Enya wouldn‘t be a part of this big orgy. Obviously Christina will be left out as well. So we can invite some other girls to bang them.” Zander grabbed Willow‘s hand the instant she tried to escape.

“Let me go,” Willow whispered a plea, but he wasn‘t letting her go.

“Zander! Let her go,” Maynard raising his voice for Willow surprised everyone, especially Christina

“Zander!” Maynard grunted and the next thing we know, he lunged at Zander. He landed a punch on Zander‘s chin and knocked him down. The commotion got the attention of other students. They rushed out of the rooms to see what was happening.

“Maynard!” Christina got between them and pushed Maynard back. “You are hitting my brother for this hooker?” she shouted at him in tears while helping Zander up on his feet.

“She ruined your previous relationship. Are you not even a little bit angry with her? Do you even care about my family?” She seemed to be ready to sob, but was keeping it together.

That‘s when we heard Mr. Tripper clearing his throat to get our attention.

“We are going through crises and this is what is happening here?” Mr. Tripper eyed us to step away from each other.

“We have a hooker in our academy.” Zander shamelessly called her out in front of everyone.

“Okay! That‘s enough. Everybody back to your room. And you guys, to your room,” Mr. Tripper ordered us to get into our room with Willow. It was so awkward explaining everything to him in the beginning, but thankfully, Lazlo did a great job telling Mr. Tripper everything without name calling anyone.

“I am very disappointed with you all,” Mr. Tripper was shaking his head and striding into our room. We have gathered in our room with Willow standing in the corner like she is a disease.

“Tell me, how did you meet her?” Mr. Tripper asked Maynard, his hands on his waist and acting like he was a Saint himself.

“It was Keith who introduced her to me,” Maynard answered. He was sitting in his bed with his face down and Christina sitting on the chair beside him. She was increasingly looking annoyed with Willow.

“This is unacceptable. Is she even an actual student?” Mr. Tripper proceeded to ask.

“I don‘t know. I didn‘t know anything about her.” Maynard sounded honest in his responses, but Mr. Tripper was not buying it.

“Hm! I have called Keith in here. Let‘s see what he has to say,” Mr. Tripper said while walking from one corner of the room to the other.

As we waited here, Keith knocked on the door and got invited to the madness. The moment he spotted Willow sobbing in the corner, he understood what went down.

“Sit down Keith,” Mr. Tripper muttered, “now tell me why did you introduce a hooker to the school?”

“I don‘t know what you are talking about,” Keith straight up lied and shook his head.

“Keith! We know everything,” Zander smirked, holding back his laugh but pissing off Keith.

“I don‘t know what that means. Who is the hooker here?” He shrugged his shoulders to pretend like he has no idea what they were talking about.

“I was hired by him. I am not a student,” after Willow was done crying for minutes, she exposed Keith.

“That‘s a lie,” Keith mumbled angrily, glaring at her to not mess with him.

“Okay, that‘s it. I’m going to take you two to the principal in the morning. Let‘s get this sorted out.” Once it was confirmed the rest of us had nothing to do with this matter, Mr. Tripper took them out of our room.

Now that Mr. Tripper left the room with Willow and Keith, we were kind of left to stare at each other in silence.

“What happened to Oswin?” I asked Lazlo, focusing on Oswin for now. Christina was patching up her brother while Maynard was sitting alone, hunching over with his elbows on his knees and his face buried.

“He is in a very bad state. It seemed like they messed him up badly,” Lazlo answered, sitting comfortably in the bed with me.

“He must be in the woods looking for potions and herbs.” I rolled my eyes at Oswin. I was extremely worried about him. He had always been there for him, so even the thought of him in pain was hurting me.

“What do you mean by that?” I inquired curiously. I was watching Maynard sitting all alone. And I felt bad for him. I get it. He messed up, but in his head, he was not doing anything wrong. He was sadly getting caught in the twin‘s mess.

“Then why was he in the woods?” I asked Lazlo after shaking myself awake from the sea of thoughts I was drowning in.

“Poppy asked him to take her out into the woods. She complained to him that he never does anything exciting with her.” Lazlo telling me it was Poppy‘s idea that Oswin take her into the woods shocked me into my skin. I was stunned.

“What? Wait a minute. So Poppy was with him? What happened to her?” I questioned, genuinely concerned because Oswin loved this girl.

“That‘s the thing. When the rogues attacked, Poppy kind of ran away without looking back.” Lazlo answered.

have thought he was coming back for her,” Lazlo tried to excuse her cowardice, but it didn‘t sit well with me.

“So you are saying if I didn‘t have my powers, I would leave my mates behind?” The fact

that I really didn‘t have my powers for so long yet I always cared for my mates was a sign I am not like Poppy. This is property © of .

Before our conversation can turn into an argument, I saw somebody blowing up my phone. It seemed to be someone whose number wasn‘t on my phone.

But just by reading through the messages, I knew who it was.

Unknown: Are you missing me?

Unknown: Ah! I know you see me as a monster, but a monster loves to come back for his prey, doesn‘t he?

Unknown: You can surround yourself with an army of Mates, Enya. But I am coming back to claim you.

Unknown: You are and forever will be my mate only.
