Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee novel Chapter 414

414-The Royal Beta Can Rule.

My luck was really scarred because the day I was planning to speak to Maynard and talk to him about what Christina had told me, he had to move back to his pack for two days. I took it as a sign and decided not to talk to him at all. I would wait for him to speak to me after Christina talks to him about divorce.

It was selfish of me to even consider her offer, but at this point, I badly needed to get out of this marriage. Lazio was driving me crazy, and the process wasn't even slow.

’Lazio! I was meaning to talk to you about something/ I said, clearing my throat to get his attention. He was too busy on his phone while the TV was playing before us.

'Hm?' He didn't look away from his phone when responding to me.

"It's 15; I want to visit Thiago's pack." I reminded him of the deal we have made. Every 15 days, I check in on his pack and try to assist them with whatever they require. The pack has been running without an alpha, so I don't know how much longer it could stay like that.

Nov/ that Corbin had started a war with me, I feared he would take his anger out on Thiago's pack.

’Okay!" Lazio answered, still not looking at me. He never once asked how I was feeling. After Maynard and Christina left, I had to start doing the chores again and force myself to forget about my sickness and get to work.

'I was thinking maybe you can join me this time?" I requested, and he finally put his phone down.

'Why would I do that?" he asked, shaking his leg anxiously while staring at my face.

'You are an alpha. You have a better understanding of how to keep a pack and take care of the matters,' I said, reminding him Thiago’s pack is missing an alpha now.

'Oh! You finally remembered that I am the alpha. You never asked me to accompany you all the previous years when you visited his pack. Did you mess up something there?’ He raised his brow, using a sarcastic tone, and made me regret even requesting him. If Maynard was here, I would have asked him, but now I was left with Lazio, so I had to swallow my ego and request that he help me take care of Thiago's pack.

’It is not like that. You have told me that you are not ready to take care of another pack. But now that you are already thinking about taking over some of the free lands, why not take Thiago's pack under you and rule the pack? Their pack is actually a very rich Ian—," I was yammering with a lot of hopes and expectations when his scoff silenced me.

'Just say you don't want Corbin to take over Thiago's pack. You don't care about my business plan, it is all about what you want." He shook his head when he taunted me and called me selfish yet again in hidden words.

They were a bit harsh to me in the beginning, and now I know why. Somewhere along the line, they knew my parents had become the reason behind their Alpha and Luna's misery. But after realizing I was nothing like my parents and had even taken good care of Thiago, they accepted me with open arms.

'Why can't you stay here for the night? We want to take care of you," Janet pouted, complaining, as she followed me to the office.

'The rules, baby! Besides, I am sure I will be fine. I just need to take a look over everything and make a plan for the coronation next month," I said, and a frown covered her forehead.

’Coronation? There is no alpha in this pack." She sounded defeated when talking about not having a ruler to save them from Corbin's dirty eyes.

’True! But we still have a Royal Beta, second in command,’ I said, and her jaw met the floor. I am sure nobody gave it a thought, but I did some research and realized it was indeed possible for the royal beta to lead the pack after the demise of their alpha.

’That is me, Enya, and I don't know how I can take care of such an enormous pack," she said, looking scared even at the thought of messing up.

’There is no need to fret. You have been taking care of the pack, anyway. And I’ll be here beside you whenever you need me," I promised her, and in the back of my mind, I realized I also need someone to accompany me whenever I need someone, like a suitable mate.
