Tasting All My Mates

Chapter 467

467-Snakes And Witches!

Years Ago:

Author's POV:

Christina was out and about on a date with Maynard when she couldn't help but feel like she was being watched. She tried focusing on anything else but couldn't.

‘Let's go back to the academy, then.” Maynard smiled at her, holding the car door open for her.

‘Do you mind if I stay around for a bit? There is a salon I want to visit. I think my hair needs some treatment,* she told him with a smile, making him stare at her for a few seconds before he shrugged.

‘Sure,’ he smiled.

‘Thank you. I will see you back in the academy,” she waved her hand at him before storming away in the direction of the salon.

However, she had a feeling somebody wanted to approach her but was holding back because of Maynard.

Once Maynard got into his car and left, she slowed down and started looking around.

‘Ugh! I don’t feel right,’ she spoke to her wolf, nervously rubbing her palms together.

‘Lam telling you, I am sensing our blood around,’ Tina confirmed. There was someone trying to approach them. And not only that, but that someone seemed to be one of their own.

‘Christina!*

That's when Christina heard someone call her name from the alleyway.

There is someone there,’ Christina said as she spotted a woman in a long black overcoat, peering from behind the wall. After she had successfully caught Christina's attention, she started making her way out of the alley.

Christina was bewildered as to why this woman wanted to lead her away. But since her wolf has also confirmed this person could be her relative, she started walking behind her. The strong feeling of meeting someone of her own after so many years compelled Christina to follow this woman.

Following her heart, she followed her. The woman led her in silence to a mountain. Now that the two were walking in sight, Christina had to pause and know more about her before she followed her into some shit.

‘Who are you, and what do you want from me?" Christina yelled, feeling the cold breeze being brushed against her skin.

The lady slowed down and eventually stopped. The awkward silence was replaced with the howling of the wind. Once she turned around and took off her mask, Christina let out a loud gasp.

‘Mom!1' There was no way she would need a minute to recognize her. Although she never spoke much about her, she always carried her mother's memories with her. There was not much, but Argo had shown her a picture of her mother when they were kids, and it stayed in her memory. However, she never spoke about it with anyone.

Seeing her alive made her happy for a split second before she took a step back from her.

‘My daughter!" Emelia smiled, tearing up at watching her grow up so beautifully.

‘Daughter? I am not your daughter.” Christina's happiness only lasted till she remembered her mother was alive all these years, yet she never came to check on her kids.

"Why would you say that?” Emelia placed her hand on her heart and sniffled back tears.

"Where were you, mother, when your kids were left alone?" Christina yelled, with her emotions all over the place. It wasn't easy to find her again and hug her when there was so much that Emelia had to answer for.

*I was too miserable and scared to come out and see you and my son," Emelia whimpered. I didn't have an easy life, Christina.*

She sobbed, rubbing her chest a little to display how much pain she was feeling in her heart.

‘No! That is not an excuse. We thought you were dead. Because there was no way a mother would not come to hold her kids when they needed help. Zander! He suffered so much from the monstrous side of him. You never—she muttered as she zipped her lips tightly and closed her eyes to discard the emotions that were making her eyes well up more.

"Why are you back now?’ Christina regained her posture to question her without looking weak. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

‘I have come back to my daughter. I want to be — your family.” Emelia's lips trembled as she said, "I have come back to help my daughter survive what I couldn't," her words alarming Christina. She didn't know her life was in danger.

*I am perfectly fine with my mate and friends,” Christina argued with her, folding her arms over her chest and refusing to believe anything Emelia has to say.

‘That is one big lie you have convinced yourself of.” Emelia let out a little scoff, but only to express how much she thought she was guilty.

‘You think my life is in danger?” Christina asked her, still feeling some type of way because it was her mother she was refusing to hug. If it was the little Christina who missed her mother dearly, she would be hugging her mom by now.

*I am talking about the people you are calling your friends and mates,* Emelia mumbled before she looked behind Christina and noticed a car coming.

‘Please hide." Emelia cleaned her tears and told her daughter, who frowned when looking behind at the car.

‘Who is it?* Christina asked her mother.

*I will tell you everything. Please, just hide now." Emelia rushed over and shoved Christina behind a tree while adjusting her hair and clothes.

The car stopped, and a guy rolled out of it. He looked around briefly before he reached Emelia and stared at her for a moment.

‘Why are you standing here like that?" he asked her, scanning the surroundings. Christina was confused when she watched this man talking to her mother. It was an enormous shock for her to not only see her mother alive but also hear something alarming from her. She openly claimed her mate and her friends were not exactly who Christina thought they were.

‘I was just getting some fresh air, Marko!" she smiled, accepting the food he had brought for her.

Marko nodded as he shoved the cab keys into his pocket.
