Tasting All My Mates

358-An Alpha Cannot Control Me

The three days felt like living in hell. Every time we friends were together, I would see

Maynard staring at me without breaking eye contact. I was worried Christina or Lazio

will notice it and think something was up.

Finally, the day of the mating ceremony arrived. I was excited to head out of there and

go back to the academy. Lazio had worn a grey suit, while Maynard wore a black suit.

Christina looked extremely gorgeous in her white wedding gown. She had selected a

peach dress for me as her bride’s maid.

‘I hope everything goes by nicely,’ I whispered to Nia before walking down the aisle

with the bouquet in my hands. Maynard had walked to the gazebo before us. He was

smiling and taking greetings until his eyes landed on me.

We hadn’t been able to talk because our last conversation was so awkward. It was

then that I saw him smile at me. I had to smile back because, well, it was his wedding

and we had some wonderful memories together.

He kept staring at me even when I reached him and stood on the spot where

Christina was supposed to stand a step ahead, facing him.

I tried looking around, but his stare was so intense that I could not turn away from

him. It was then that I saw Christina walking down the aisle with Lazio. I turned to

Maynard, but his eyes were still stuck on me.

I had to grab my phone and text him to get his attention back to his mate and Luna.
