Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

136-He Played Me

I have spent the night wondering: What if Helel takes Reign out on a date in spite of me? And every

single time, I flinched at the thought of it. I don’t know why Lady Sofia came out of nowhere to ruin

everything, but the rest was on me. I wasn’t too sure what I wanted at this point.

There were too many complications, one of which was my weredragon status.

I woke up before it was time to call my mother, for whom I have a lot of burning questions. I was only

waiting for us to come face-to-face.

But I needed to tell her about the arrival of Sofia at the mansion. Also, I kind of wondered if Sofia would

tell my mom that I was holding a sex toy for her son.

“Mom!” I sighed, remembering how she had hidden such a huge thing from me.

“You sound low. Is everything okay?” Mom asked, and I nodded as if she would see me from the

phone’s screen.

“I am just a bit stressed out after the arrival of Sofia.” I find it weird how good I am at lying. Maybe I got

this from my weredragon side? I do remember Colt acting the same way. Gwen, however, was different

from us.

She had successfully fooled everyone with her fake inno- cence, just like I had. In my case, it was my

mother who had morphed me into a scared little kitten, and once she let the leash loose, the true me

came out.

“Wait! You are telling me that bitch is back? Why? This is not her home anymore,” mom’s aggression

was to the roof. I didn’t expect her to get that angry. I was thinking maybe she would speak to Vasquez,

and he would warn Sofia not to cause any trouble. But that was surely not the case anymore.

“I don’t know much, but she is home,” I said.

“Okay! Stay away from her and keep taking your medicines. I will convince Vasquez to take some days

off so that we can come over, okay?” Mom said, and I agreed with her. I would want her to come over, if

not for Sofia, definitely for me.

I hung up on her after talking for a few minutes and then walked downstairs to meet with Helel and tell

him where Colt was hiding for the next few hours. If we want to meet him, we will have to go now, or

else we will lose him once again.

“Trust me, she is a good girl.” I heard Sofia speaking to the brothers in the kitchen.

“I dated her and didn’t like my life for a second when she was a part of it.” Maddox argued with his

mother. When I en- tered the kitchen, his mother went silent for a moment to pass me a quizzical

glance before talking to her son again.

“But why? She is the type you have always wanted. She is fierce, a baddie, and an alpha’s daughter.

Consider how strong your children will be if you marry Dream Winchester.” Sofia brought her up, and

only then did I recall how she took Maddox’s car and left before us when we were at the Vortex. She

didn’t even speak to anyone and even kept Maddox’s car. I heard Maddox talk to his brothers about

breaking up with her, and I thought maybe that’s why she didn’t want to return to his car. But Maddox

confirmed he doesn’t want the car back either.

“Mom! What we think we like is not always what we end up liking. So please give it a rest,” Maddox

said, and the way he said it and then slightly turned to look at me made my body fill up with

goosebumps.

“Fine. What about you, Helel? Are you going out with Reign today?” Sofia then turned to Helel and my

muscles. stretched. I didn’t even want to look up from the toast and watch Helel say yes.

“I have some urgent things to do today. I will talk to you about this matter later this evening.” Helel

dodged the subject for now, but that didn’t mean he rejected her offer entirely.

I grabbed the toast and sprinted out of the kitchen before Sofia targeted me. After a few minutes of me

sitting alone on the front porch, I watched Helel come out after me.

“I got your text. Where is Colt?” he asked, all set to leave to pick him up.

“He is in the woods. I can lead you to him,” I uttered, and Helel shook his head at me.

“I think you should stay at home. Just let me know where he is, okay?” He asked me, but it seemed

odd. I couldn’t tell what exactly was going on, but he wasn’t worried about going on a date with Reign

or what I said earlier to him. There was more than what he was telling us.

“No! I think he will be more at ease when he sees me,” I said as I got on my feet to face Helel. He didn’t

look too im- pressed with the idea.

“Just wait here. I will go grab the jacket, okay?” I said, get- ting on my feet and rushing back into the

mansion once again to get some stuff I had packed for Colt. If I could, I would give him my own room

and stay on the front porch myself. I never had friends, but I realized that when I care about someone, I

care too much.

Before I could even reach the staircase, I saw Sofia walk- ing out of the kitchen, and that was my cue

to take a u-turn and run towards the exit again. I can wait and give him the stuff later on. Helel is going

to provide him with a shelter where I can visit him whenever I want.

With that thought in my mind, I only reached the gate when I heard Helel speak to someone on the

phone, and it wasn’t what I had expected from him.

“He is in the woods. I will try to get the exact location, but remember to take iron chains with you. Don’t

let him take off his pendant, once he transitions into a full dragon, it will be much harder for you to fight

him,” as Helel instructed some- one on how to catch Colt, my jaw hit the floor and a gut wrenching

feeling turned the shine in my eyes into a mist.
