Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 170

Chapter 170: 170-Too Many Victories

Helanie:

"I am ready for my attack," Lamar yelled, holding his herb tightly in his hand. Penn was making sure that neither he nor Lamar stayed too far from me. I was sure they were worried that if I were alone and the Frogster attacked, I would get hurt. But that was exactly what I wanted to change. I didn’t want to be dependent on anyone. They had their own test to pass; they shouldn’t be babysitting me. _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}

"Got it," Penn said, giving him a thumbs up, and I nodded in agreement. I thought facing the Frogster would be terrifying, but it wasn’t that scary at all.

I watched Lamar throw the herb he brought at the Frogster, but it only made the creature go crazy. The Frogster barely moved, and we knew in that moment it had failed.

We jumped around, trying to confuse the Frogster enough that it wouldn’t focus on just one of us. I could hear shouts and screams outside the cage—some cheering for us, others filled with worry.

"Penn! Give me your herb!" I yelled, extending my arm toward him. He handed me the Blighthorn herb. I had read about it—it causes brain freeze.

I took his herb and mine, placing them in my palms and began to crush them.

I could feel the powder forming and mixing in my hands.

Lamar and Penn were doing their best to distract the Frogster while I was busy planning our attack.

"Okay, listen, get it to face you two," I shouted, noticing Kaye reaching the cage and anxiously holding onto the bars. He wasn’t even being subtle about it.

"Helanie, are you sure?" Lamar hesitated to let me take the lead because he was worried about what I might do.

"I’ll be fine!" I yelled in reassurance.

Lamar and Penn raised their arms to get its attention, and they didn’t have to do much. The Frogster turned toward them, ready to throw its sticky tongue out.

I ran to the back of the Frogster and positioned myself perfectly to attack it at the moment it was most distracted.

Everyone gasped as I climbed onto the back of the Frogster, confusing it with my unexpected move.

"What are you doing?" Lamar yelled in concern.

"Don’t worry about me! I have the herb with me. Just cross him and get to the key!" I yelled, making sure they knew what I was trying to do.

Penn and Gavin sprinted toward the exit while I climbed onto the Frogster, reaching its head, and placed the herb in its eyes.

The minute the herbs touched its eyes, the Frogster lost its mind. I jumped and landed on the ground, watching the Frogster throw its tongue in all directions.
