Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207: 207-A Kiss To Help Me Through Storm

Helanie:

"We were drunk, and I didn’t even know at that time that he had a mate. We did it and we woke up in the bed together. That’s when he freaked out and told me that he had a mate. I swear I wanted to tell you, but he said he wanted you, so he would just make it up to you. But then things kept changing and getting worse and worse. I thought he would just win your heart back, but then—he started to hurt you for cheating on him and then—," she grabbed her hair in her fist as she cried, hiccuping loudly.

"Why didn’t you tell her?" Penn questioned.

"I wanted to, but—," she let out a cry.

I turned to stare at Lucy and found her staring at Jenny’s face in silence.

"I will go home now—," Lucy said, "and please, nobody follows me."

She added as she watched me and Lamar go after her, "Please!" she almost begged. I still wanted to follow her, but Lamar gave me a headshake.

Gavin was so embarrassed that he left soon after Jenny confirmed. It was all over the place, and I wondered how we would ever go back from this.

But I remembered how many times Lucy had told us that she knew her mate cheated and no one believed her.

"Jenny!" Penn gave his head a good shake of disappointment.

"I wanted to cheat on Rayden so that he feels the same pain, but then I ended up becoming the reason behind others going through the same trouble," she continued, sobbing loudly.

The more details she showed, the more I realized it was all Gavin’s fault, honestly.

"And why did you accept it before Lucy? She was already over it and trying to grow out of that trauma of the toxic end of her mate bond," as Penn tried to make Jenny understand that Lucy might be more hurt now, Jenny raised a good point.

"No! She is not better. Don’t you see? She is trying so hard to please everyone because she thinks it was all her fault. I cannot let her act like that when the real culprits are walking around with their heads up high!" Jenny stomped her feet like a child throwing a tantrum. But she was just angry with herself at this point.

"Okay, you need to calm down. I will drop you at the hostel so that you can—," Penn’s words were cut short when Jenny gave him a headshake.

At the same time, I began to receive text messages from Maximus.

"I cannot face Lucy again. I want to go to my cabin," Jenny requested.

I sneakily checked Maximus’ text.

Professor Maximus: "I found your friend sitting on the road and crying. Come collect her and show me your beautiful face to make my night as well.

I don’t know how Maximus could say something serious and then add that little flirtatious demand at the same time.

"Are you coming?" Lamar asked.
