Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee

483-Ah! She Is Pregnant.

'I cannot believe you did this to your fated mate. You knew my bond with you was fake because, obviously, Christina

had told you. Then why didn't you come clean to me and accept Valerie?" I was yammering and arguing with Lazio

over the past few minutes.

‘I didn't want to." He didn't even have a valid reason to argue over.

'I would have understood why you didn't want to if you were still in love with me and treating me well. But you were

happily spending time with Valerie, so why didn't you just accept the fact that this is how it is meant to be and reject

me? instead of keeping me along and making me suffer?1’ I growled at him. There were only three of us left in the

living room.

The others thought we should resolve this matter in private now. Valerie hadn't said much. In fact, she just stood in

her spot with her head down. Now I realize why she used to be so jealous and angry with me.

'Enya! I didn't stop loving you. I just had a lot of things going on in my head at that time. I was manipulated by

Christina, and all the evidence against you made me drive away from you.’ he yelled back at me, refusing to accept

any scenario where rejecting me was the best option for him.

’Lazio! do you even realize you didn't only hurt me in those two years but made her look like a slutty mistress as

well?" I groaned at him, feeling sort of bad for Valerie. For a girl who had been keeping herself safe for Lazio, when

she found out they were mates, she didn't want to look away from it. She was too happy to back down.

’And the fact that you are already over her is even sadder." I yelled at him and pushed him back.

'I don't know what to say." I just feel like I was never over you. I made those mistakes in anger. I don't even know

what I did in those two years. As every day spent without loving you is meaningless now.’ Lazio said, without fearing

the tears of Valerie. She closed her eyes and sniffled when she heard her fated mate express his undying love

forme.

'Lazio! have some sense. You are saying all that in front of her. I don't even think you are capable of loving anyone

at this moment. Look at her. She gave up two years of her life for you. She knew she would look like a bad guy, yet

she went along with the plan." I was in the middle of talking when I felt like she wanted to add something, so I shut

up.

’You kept reminding me that we are only chosen mates. And I didn't want to upset you, so at one point, even I

thought maybe we were only chosen mates." She murmured to Lazio, watching him with complaint-filled eyes.

I get it. Whatever you two are saying is not wrong, but what do I do? I am dying inside me. I feel like ripping my

head out of my neck to ruin things with Enya. I don't know what my life will be without her." Lazio muttered, glaring

at us for not understanding his feelings.

‘When I saw you with Theo today, I felt like running over anything that comes my way and snatching you away from

him. I am losing my shit, wondering very soon you will mark him and reject me," Lazio aggressively talked, glaring

at us and expressing his frustration.

I no longer knew what to say to him because everytime I mentioned anything that touched on how we shouldn't be

together anymore, he would lose his shit.

’What about me then? It is not easy for me to stand here and listen to you talk about her with so much love and

compassion and ignore me at the same time. Don't you think you should carry an ounce of guilt for leading me on

for two years, saying you don't feel anything for her and soon we will be together?" Valerie had enough of Lazio’s

bullshit. I was glad that she spoke up. He was totally ignoring her feelings, not even considering her emotions to be

anything, and how she was openly expressing her love for him.

After watching her question, Lazio faced her and nodded. I could already tell he wasn't in the mood to accept her

into his life anytime soon, even he was marked by him now.

"You want to know my answe—," Lazio said, looking deeply into his eyes.

’Lazio! don't do anything stupid," I instantly got in between the two and stopped him from taking a step that would

make him lose his fated mate.

'Any stupid? My stupidity was when I cheated on you, and I am regretting it like anything. I cannot continue my

relationship with her—," Lazio yelled, making Valerie gasp behind me.

No! don—," I argued with him when I stepped back and accidentally bumped into Valerie and knocked her purse

down.

I am so sorr—,’ I paused, watching the thing that she tossed out of her purse. She hesitantly knelt down to grab it

and hide it again, but my sharp eyes have already caught it.

'What is that?" I asked her while she shoved her hand in the purse, still holding that thing. She straightened her

back and shook her head at me.

Noth—," she gulped.

'That was a pregnancy test, wasn't it?" I asked, and her eyes traveled to Lazio behind me in worry.

'What?" Lazio gasped, running from behind me and approaching her. "Vai! Are you preg—nant?" He inquired, his

breathing loudly.

I am," Valerie gave up and told us the truth, "I found out in the morning, which is why I wanted to speak to you."

She had tears streaming down her eyes because I believe she didn't expect him to be so easily over her.

Now she was pregnant and had heard her mate express how he doesn't even feel the same for her.
