Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125: 125-A Lycan On Full Moon

Helanie:

"Tonight is a full moon, so I’ll be chilling in my room and watching movies," I heard a student say as I was rushing after Gavin.

It was a full moon again? Oh is that why Kaye was asking Sage to remain inside.

Also,I needed to do something about my situation. It had already been so long, and I was acting like I wasn’t carrying a child.

"Gavin!" He stopped when I called after him.

"If you’re looking for someone who will accept your apology, I need time, Helanie. I can’t even look at you right now," he murmured, refusing to turn around and face me.

"Umm, right! I’m sorry. I really am. But the night is upon us, and Lucy hasn’t been to the Host—" I paused when he turned around abruptly, looking furious.

"You’re asking me about her? Is this your way to hurt me more?" The hurt in his eyes made me look down instantly.

"I’m not saying you should look for her with me. I’m just asking—do you have any idea where I might find her?" I used a soft tone, trying to avoid direct eye contact.

"I can’t believe this, Helanie. You, out of all people. I thought—well, I guess I was wrong. You’re just too good for all of us. You choose your friends so carefully, always keeping your comfort in mind," he said bitterly. But it wasn’t just his tone that hurt me; it was what he said.

"Gavin! I couldn’t speak between you two—" I tried to explain, but he raised his hand to silence me and sped upstairs. I turned around and came face to face with Salem.

"Ouch!" she mouthed. "Trouble between friends? You can share it with me. I’m good at solving troubles." She folded her arms over her chest, giving me a peculiar look.

"And why would I trust you?" I scoffed, folding my arms across my chest. She noticed and didn’t seem to like it because her sharp eyebrow arched as high as it could.

"I heard your friend is missing. What was her name again? Oh yeah, insecure Lucy!" she giggled to herself, and my jaw clenched.

"I can help you find her," she whispered, but I shook my head, refusing her offer.

"It’s a full moon tonight, Helanie, and rumors say that whoever roams around the woods or the mountains during a full moon never returns to their friends," she whispered in the creepiest tone. Suddenly, a few wolf howls erupted, sending a shiver down my spine.

She laughed at my reaction and then shrugged. "I’m good at sniffing. I can sniff her out, but I’ll need something in return."

She was swaying from side to side, her head tilting left and right every few seconds. It was odd talking to her directly. I used to think Sydney was weird.

Now I knew why Salem didn’t talk much—she was creepy as hell.

"What do you need?" I asked. She glanced at something on my wrist without even unfolding her arms.

"My bracelet?" I inquired, and she nodded dramatically.

"You don’t need to give her anything. I’ll come with you," Jenny cut in, coming to the rescue.

I knew she was the daughter and sister of an Alpha, so she had to be strong and capable.
