CHAPTER 307

307-Date Me, Or Suffert

Enya’s POV:

“It‘s not what it looks like.” I was anxiously trying to explain myself while he shook his head at me in disappointment.

“Just because you‘ve got too many mates, you forget there is a thing called loyalty. You just hop from bed to bed without a care in the world. Now Maynard? My sister did so much to stay friends with you guys, and this is how you have decided to repay her?” Zander was looking angry as he kept shaking his head at me while also holding the phone in his hand that I am sure he used to record us. This is property © of .

“That is not what it is like. He was hurt, so Lazlo gave him medicines.” | pointed at Maynard, who was sleeping without a care in the world.

“And he confessed to making a mistake. What could the mistake be? Oh yes, maybe the fact that he is not with you?” Zander‘s eyes were showing anger. He was accusing me of things, and I couldn‘t even deny them. Maynard did say all that.

“I think we need to calm down first. Maynard is injured. He didn‘t even know what he was talking about. Besides, why did you record us? Do you plan to show it to your sister? Do you not see what she is going through? Showing that to her at this moment would mean pushing her into a deep hole of depression.” I was trying to convince him and it might have sounded like I was gaslighting him. But I was worried about Christina’s reaction after watching that video.I didn‘t want her to think she had lost so much of her mental peace for nothing.

“Fine, let‘s not talk about her. What about me? You went ahead and slept with everyone, but didn‘t even want me to mark you.” He groaned in frustration, his eyes shimmering with tears of anger.

“I let you mark me. You couldn‘t. How is that my fault?” I was so tired of explaining that night to them. I didn‘t do anything.

“You kept your mind blocked for me.” He shook his head in disappointment once again, not ready to hear me out.

“Fine. Tell me, what do you want me to do?” | inquired after || was so tired of arguing back and forth with him. So I decided, let‘s hear it from him what he wants.

“I want a date with you.” He suddenly calmed down while ! frowned.

“What?” It was unexpected.

“I just want some alone time with you, and that will be all. I want you to get to know me, to see that I am not a bad person. Just one full day and then you can just reject me if I am unable to convince you that I am not a bad choice for being a mate,” he said all that in a very low tone. I didn‘t want to tell him that, but the only reason I wasn’t yelling at him for even recording us was because he still had the recording.

“I know I cannot even mark you yet, but that is not what I want. I just want to take you out on a fun date. That‘ll be all,” He pouted and sat down on the staircase like a stubborn

child.

“You could have asked me that earlier without throwing accusations my way. You know that, right?” I folded my arms

over my chest once I noticed how miserable he became when demanding I spend time with him.

“I know. I am an idiot. What else can I say?” he shrugged. “So the date is on?” he asked, and after rolling my eyes at him, I nodded my head.

“Then I will prepare everything for tomorrow.” He clapped his hands excitedly, but it got me worried. I couldn‘t even rush for a date when my friends and mates are not even in good condition.

“Can we plan some other day because Thiago is out and cold for a few days due to the wolfbane and other herbs in his system? The same goes for Maynard. The two are stuck here alone, and if Thiago wakes up and decides to choose violence again, then nobody will be here to take care of him.” I said it all in a quick yammer. Zander turned his face to Maynard and then raised his head to look at the room above where Thiago was.

“Lazlo is already taking care of them. I will bring Christina here for Maynard because the moment she wakes up; she will be worried about where Maynard is. As for you, that‘s why I want to take you out. We need some time for ourselves and away from the stress. Enya! I will not hear no for an answer. Because once they are awake, you will be back to giving me the cold shoulder and focusing on them entirely.” He was being very pushy and also slightly waving the phone in his hand. He wasn‘t saying anything, but it seemed like he was kind of reminding me that he still had my video on his phone.

“Fine, but we shall be back before evening. I want us all here for the night just in case–—” I stopped and watched him bob his head in agreement with me.

“Promise!” he answered.

So it was decided. He will take me out in the morning, and by evening, we will be back in the cabin. I don‘t know how much he intended to show me of him in those hours, but I decided to give him a chance.

“And that video —–,” I cleared my throat awkwardly, sounding like a guilty person trying to get rid of any proof against herself.

“You can get rid of it yourself when we are already headed to our date destination.” He stated calmly.

“But how do I know you will not walk away from here and make copies of it?” | raised my eyebrow, and a smile covered his lips.

“I can see why your mates are so crazy about you,” he complimented before sticking his hand out and offering me the phone. “You can keep it for now, then. I will unlock it for you in the morning,” he finished, shocking me with the fact that he was handing me over his phone so nonchalantly.
