491-Watched Her Slip Away
Theo’s POV:
I watched her stare at me, and I knew in that moment that I had fucked up. I didn’t even crack a smile as I stood there, planning where I would flee if she attacked me.
Lazio and Maynard gulped loudly, slowly striding behind me like cowards. I wasn’t scared of her, but I didn’t want them to rely on me when I couldn’t rely on myself.
“Why?” She got up from her feet and asked me, “Did you not know how much losing you hurt me?’ Her voice broke, and her eyebrows slid together as she expressed her pain through her expressions.
“I couldn’t say another word because she wasn’t done yet.
“I have cried for you for two years, Theo. Is that not enough? Why would you make me go through that pain again?“ She whimpered, refusing to come closer to me. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
I understand what I did was wrong, but only because the circumstances were different.
Right now, we need to make sure Nia wakes up.
“You think you are the only one who suffers?” I finally spoke to her, and she let me say,
“Enya! I feel as devastated as you do when we are not together. This match has become my fear. I was dreading sending you to the match without a wolf. And I knew the only you could feel the anger and that Nia will wake up is when you will go through something similar to last time. And look! It worked!” I explained to her, watching her stop crying and stare at my face in silence.
I can only imagine how she felt when she saw me dying. But that would help her survive.
“Besides, you slapping Lazio was the highlight of the night.’ I suddenly added, and the little smile she gave me comforted my soul. Yeah! That was hard,” Lazio complained, rubbing his cheek.
“Thank goodness I stepped away when I realized she was losing her shit,” Maynard added, making her frown at the two of them.
After she was done glaring at them, her eyes traveled back to me, and a smile plastered across her lips once again.
“Come here!” I spread my arms for her, and, without wasting a minute, she ran into my arms. I closed my arms around her and felt her body heat up against mine. If these two were not around, I would have instantly stripped her naked and had the wildest sex with her. But I didn’t want her to use her energy before the match.
“Okay! That’s really something. I got slapped, he got yelled at, and he is getting all the hugs,“ Lazio complained, waving his hand at us.
“Go get a hug from your own mate, I scoffed, watching him mimic me with overdramatic expressions.
“Okay, now that she got her wolf, we should head back and start training her,” Maynard told us, and that’s when Enya broke the hug to look at him. I could tell she was nervous and wanted to get started on training. I wouldn’t be lying; I was afraid of her. But I had a backup plan.
“Can I first connect a little with Nia? It has been two years that we couldn’t talk, and there is so much we have to talk about,” Enya requested, looking at us and wanting some time with her wolf.
“She is going to talk about us with her,” Maynard whispered in Lazio’s ears, and Lazio pouted.
“Nia will hate me too now,” Lazio was gladly self-aware of the destruction he had caused now.
“Please?” she looked my way and asked me, forming a cute little pout from her lips. I don’t know why she would do that, because now I can’t say no to her even when I badly want to interrupt her.
I just had this feeling that she shouldn’t leave my sight, but I didn’t want to control her.
That was such a small thing she was requesting from me with so much cuteness and hope. I couldn’t say no to her.
“Okay! But be careful around the woods and return soon, okay?* I told her, giving her one last hug as she walked into the deep woods to transition and take a run around.
“Wow! I am so happy Nia is back.” Lazio rubbed his palms excitedly and happily. We mwere all happy for Enya, and I could only imagine how pleased she would be at the moment. It truly feels good when your human side connects well with your wolf’s side, which reminded me of Thiago.
I am not going to let him come out and suffer. He will have to wait until this whole mess is over. I have grown very overprotective of him.
“I hope she comes back safely,” I uttered, grabbing my phone because it kept vibrating in my pants.
“I was worried you would let out a breath,” Maynard said. He didn’t lie. Pretending to be dead was not at all easy. I had to keep my breath in. That’s why Maynard had to drag her away, or she would have noticed I was alive and breathing.
“It’s Kellice. Let’s tell her the good news,” I said, picking up the phone happily. Don’t let her wolf wake up,” she said in a panicked state before she could even let me greet her.
I frowned in confusion, wondering what she was talking about.
“What are you talking about? I was just going to give you the good news. The plan worked. Her wolf woke up,” I said, but the reaction from her side was not at all what I had expected to get after such a triumph.
“Theo! You need to cage her instantly. Don’t let her get away from your sight,” she warned me, making me slide a gulp down my throat.
“What are you on about?’ I asked her, watching Lazio and Maynard feel the intensity of my words.
“What Corbin injected her was a potion that would make her walk straight to him whenever her wolf wakes up.” As soon as she told us what she had found in her blood, I lost my mind.
