Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 274

Chapter 274: 274-A Trap For The Lycan

Helanie:

"Others will be arriving soon," Penn informed us while serving coffee. It was so cold in the cabin that Lamar and Penn had made plans to get some wood for the fireplace. I bet Jenny hadn’t been to this cabin in a while, ever since her mate had shown up at the cabin, and I ran out in a hurry. Or, a better way to say it would be when she last had sex with Lamar. That would be awkward now.

"We will be back shortly, okay? Helanie, do you need anything?" Penn asked, putting on his jacket.

"Yeah, brother, go ahead, forget about me already," Jenny joked. However, no one laughed.

"You want something?" Penn noticed the awkwardness, so he went over to support his sister, who smiled and waved her hand in response.

"Okay, we will head out now," Penn said, as he was the one talking most of the time.

Once those two left, the stress in the air grew thicker. We both sipped our coffee, avoiding eye contact.

"This coffee is good," I complimented, sipping again.

"Penn really makes the best coffee," Jenny added with a soft smile, "by the way, I’m so glad things have gotten better between you and Rayden."

She shouldn’t have brought up Rayden at this moment. But since she did, I also had a question for her.

"Yeah. Anyway, what about you and Lamar? I thought you two--" I left it unfinished on purpose.

She immediately looked uncomfortable when I mentioned their relationship. "It was a mistake."

Her tone was calm, but the guilt in it didn’t go unnoticed.

"I didn’t know you were also signing up for the lycan trap," I quickly changed the subject.

"I’ll be in the cabin, waiting for everyone. If anyone is injured, I’ll help them," she said, pointing to the bag full of towels and medical supplies.

"Oh, okay. That makes sense," I murmured.

A knock on the door broke the awkward silence that had lasted for a few minutes. Jenny answered the door and welcomed the top seniors. Well, only two of them arrived: Rudy and Arlo.

They had their bags tossed over their shoulders as they came inside and checked out the cabin.

"Seems cozy," Rudy commented, tossing his bag onto the table.
