Kiara
"Maze.." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"No! Kiara I am so sorry! I should have never jumped to conclusions as I did. I am a giant asshole, and I understand if you can never forgive me, but I should have listened to you! I should have known something was up. I was blind, and stupid and stubborn. Did I mention stupid?" I crack a small smile. I can’t really help it. He seems so lost, and sincere it’s hard to stay mad.
"May I speak now?" I ask, a little annoyed by the interruption.
"Sorry, of course." He mumbles, hanging his head. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"Yeah, you should have listened. You should have known I would never cheat, and if I did you would feel it. We are mates, Maze. We accepted each other. You would have felt it if I had been with someone else. You believed another woman over you mate. And you think I am okay? I am far from okay, Maze. I am losing it inside. Everything that has happened, on top of Mira actually getting between us because you cannot choose, is not okay. And I am not okay. I am breaking down. I want nothing but to trust your words, but you have failed to live up to them again and again. How can I be okay after that?" Tears are streaming down again, and I’m getting rather tired of crying. Seems like everything I do lately is cry and get hurt. I don’t want to hurt. I want to be loved for me. For the girl I am. But it seems like the Goddesses just put me in the realm to make fun of me and put me through tests and perils.
A sniffle makes me look up in surprise. I have been wallowing in my own self pity, too far away in my own head, I have not noticed Maze has started crying.
"I know I have been the worst mate ever, Kiara. And I can’t do anything to rectify what I have done. I let Mira play me like a fool, again. I let her words poison my mind. I should have trusted you, and I failed you instead." I led him to the bed, sitting down beside him. We need to clear the air once and for all if we are ever going to have a chance of being together. This mistrust and half truths are not going to get us anywhere.
"Maze. I want to be your mate. You are supposed to be my other half, but so far this has been half hearted. For the both of us. We need to either give this a real chance, be honest with each other and trust each other, or put it down before anyone gets more hurt."
"I want to work on it. I want to make it work with you. You are my zing, and my soulmate. I have no doubt about it, but I am stubborn, hotheaded and quick to jump to conclusions. I’m so sorry though that I have caused you all this hurt. That is the last thing I wanted. I knew I fucked up the moment I opened my mouth, but I am also very proud, and I let that pride get the best of me. I will work on it, Kiara. I promise!" I nod, squeezing his hand.
"I will work on it as well. I have trust issues, and when you turned against me I fled instead of fighting. It was easier to give up and wallow, instead of actually fighting. I did the same as Mira did. I’m sorry, Maze. We need to communicate better." He nods as well.
"May I ask you something, Kiara?"
"Of course."
"What actually happened that day?" I turn red at the memory.
"Had been training, and needed a good shower afterwards. Some dude kept harassing me at the training grounds, but I just kept him at a distance. Then when I was finished with the shower, he was in our room with no clothes on. I immediately told him to fuck off, and then you mind-linked me. I was so flustered. I think he saw me mind-linking, because he smirked, got dressed slowly and then ran out when we heard you on the stairs." Maze says nothing but stares onto the floor. His rigid posture tells me he is angry, but is the anger diverted towards the man or me.
"And why didn’t you mind-link me?"
"Honestly, I hadn’t even thought of that. I wanted him out, and you contacted me. I was utterly confused as to what was happening. At first I thought he was in the wrong room, but I quickly realized he wasn’t. Then you showed up and blew up."
"I’m sorry."
"I know. It doesn’t make it ok, but it does make it better. I am sorry too." Maze raises my hand to his mouth, just as dad’s voice roars through the house.
"WHERE IS HE?"
"Uhm, my dad has arrived." I say, blushing at his antics. Maze chuckles.
"Is he here to kill me or Mason?"
"The latter I hope." I reply, as Maze helps me to my feet.
"Let’s find out. We’re not done talking, but right now we need to handle this. Together. As a team." I smile at his words. Maybe there’s a chance after all. We have a long way to go, but if we both keep in mind we need to work together and not fight each other, I think we’ll be fine.
