Chapter 459


    459-Lips-To-Lips


    “And that’s when I was injected with that liquid. I remember him saying something simr about


    triggering me.” I sat them down to exin the whole story to them. Where Kellice looked like she was


    contemting and calcting everything, Theo, on the other hand, was grunting nonstop and cracking


    his knuckles.


    “I am going to kill that a*shole,” Theo muttered, getting up from the grass to walk away when I rushed


    after him and held his arm. He stopped and lowered his gaze at my hand on his arm. “Enya! He cannot


    f*cking touch you, hurt you, and then walk around freely,” he yelled. I felt his muscles pop out even


    more with my fingers tangled around them.


    “That’s what he wants. He wants us to attack him so that he can look like a victim and execute us all


    out of his way,” | argued with Theo, who groaned and rolled his perfectly beautiful eyes at me.


    “Stop rolling your eyes at me!” I snapped at him. He shook his body and then breathed heavily.


    “I am no-t — I am not rolling my eyes at you. I am angry at him,” he calmed himself down and sweetly


    said to me, “but I am sorry if I have offended you,” he said very sweetly. The change in his tone and


    mannerisms when interacting with me was noticeable.


    “If you two are done romancing, I will need something to be done.” Kellice’s interruption turned my


    cheeks red.


    “We are not— romancing,” I only said it under my breath because I was too embarrassed to say it out


    loud. The thing is that I have been very physically active with Thiago in the past. But now it was Theo,


    someone who was new to me. So even the thought of being naked with him was turning my cheeks


    crimson.


    “I will need your blood to do some testing and find out what he injected in you,” she came in front of me


    to speak to me directly while Theo was standing beside me, rubbing his fingers over his sharp jawline


    and probably brainstorming over something.


    “Okay, how are you—,” I asked and shut up when she raised her brow at me. “Got it. I thought you


    were going to suck my blood.” I shrugged, realizing how st*pid I sounded.


    “I will get the injection and meet you in your bedroom,” Kellice said, walking away from us. I had been


    up the whole day and hadn’t rested for a single minute. So when the mention of the bedroom was


    brought up, I felt like rushing to bed.


    “You must be tired,” Theo whispered, snapping out of his thoughts.


    “I am.” I nodded, strolling away with him to the bedroom. “You went awfully silent. What were you


    thinking about?” I asked him, watching him stare at the ground and not even raise his head.


    “Hm?” He looked at me. “Oh sorry! I am thinking about— you and Corbin,” he said awkwardly, holding


    the bedroom door open for me.


    Now that I didn’t have to worry about Kellice or Theo’s reasoning behinding back into our lives, I


    was able to scan Thiago’s bedroom with ease.


    “What about us?” I asked, going full throttle to learn everything I could about his options. The entire


    room was ck and red. It was cozy too, but also a bit creepy. The red wall behind the bed and the


    ck curtains were giving him mysterious vibes.


    “If he wanted you as his mate, he would have forced you to move in with him by now. Why didn’t he?”


    he asked, more like a question from himself as he wanted to solve the mystery.


    “Why was he trying to get J to move in and not you?” Theo was walking around the bedroom while


    I had settled into his soft bed. I knew for a fact that if I rested my back on that soft mattress, I would fall


    asleep instantly. So I kept sitting in the corner and watching him solve this mess.


    “Maybe because he knew hurting her would trigger me more?” I suggested the option, and Theo


    stopped dead in his tracks. He turned to me and narrowed his eyes at me.


    “Because he knew you have been through so much pain that nothing triggers you when ites to


    your own self. Which makes me reach for another question. Why would he want to trigger you?” He


    asked, and I too felt like a fool for not questioning Corbin’s actions before.


    “We are doing it so that you can get your wolf back, but why is he doing that?” Theo mumbled, making


    my body shrink and my arms wrap around my body.


    Corbin’s entire mission was to somehow get me to submit. Then why would he want me to have a


    wolf?


    “I don’t know. Honestly speaking, I am just so tired.” I gave up. Leaning my head back, I closed my


    eyes to stop the formation of tears. It was exhausting to be around so many people who


    wanted to take advantage of me.


    “Hey!” Theo rushed over, and I only opened my eyes and raised my head when I felt him sit in the bed


    in front of me.


    “You know I am with you now, right? So don’t feel burdened. I will not let anyoney a finger on you,


    Enya.” Theo was staring into my eyes when he was consoling me.

    “How about we forget about it for a minute and focus on us instead?” The moment he changed the


    subject, a smirk covered his lips.


    I had to roll my eyes and lean my head back to avoid him.


    “That is so mean. Would you have done the same if it were Thiago?” He asked, and I felt a little sigh


    heaving across his lips. He sounded upset.


    “Set him free, and then I am all yours,” I mumbled.


    “Be mine, and I will set him free,” he retorted. As I raised my head to stare at him, I found his eyes


    stuck to my lips.
