Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 308

Chapter 308: 308-The House Of The Lycan

Helanie:

"But be careful. Things are getting out of hand these days. Especially for—you know—the werewolf community. People are claiming to have seen a new kind of threat in the area. I’m doing my research on it, but in the meantime, make sure you’re on alert," Norman patted Emmet’s shoulder, and my eyes shifted to Emmet’s jacket. I had never seen him wear a jacket before, so this one stood out to me.

It was a beautiful black jacket with his initials, E-M, near the pockets. It must have been a gift to him.

"Okay—" Emmet was in the middle of responding when he spotted me, and I saw the mood change. "Hey, you arrived late. I hope you had fun with your friends," he started talking almost instantly, as if he was telling his brother we weren’t alone.

"Yeah, we were just checking out some places," I lied, giving them both a closed-lip smile. I did notice Norman glare at me up and down like I had done something wrong.

"Okay, I’ll go sleep now," I pointed my thumb over my shoulder toward my room.

"You’re not going to eat dinner?" Emmet asked while Norman stood with his head high, his eyes averted from me.

He was suddenly acting so weird.

"No! I’ve eaten plenty," I said, though that was true. Lamar and I had a great dinner with Gavin’s mother. I couldn’t forget how Lamar was feeding her whenever she started crying. I couldn’t believe a guy like Lamar was so sweet and humble.

I guess first impressions and interactions aren’t always accurate. Or in simple terms, people do change for the better.

"Okay then, hope you rest well," Emmet greeted, and with a nod of my head, I went to my room.

I didn’t think too much about anything because I needed to get plenty of sleep to wake up early and go after Gavin. I dozed off almost instantly and woke up around 4 AM.

"Hello, I’m heading out. Are you here yet?" I asked Lamar, quickly changing into a pair of baggy jeans and a white shirt. I had my long blonde hair in a messy braid, with my curtain bangs perfectly sitting on my forehead.

"Yep! Almost here," he informed me, and I cut the call, rushing out to sit behind him.

"The top seniors are also coming. In fact, many have said they would join the search," Lamar told me, mentioning how the students were starting to stick together.

When we first came to the academy, everyone was so against each other. It was like competition within the group. But now, slowly as the negative people were leaving and the trainers were enforcing stricter punishments for those bullying too much, things were starting to get better.

We reached the road where a group of students were waiting for us. Among them were Salem, Pen, and Jenny too.

"Okay, guys, he called and told us he was attacked," I got off the bike and instantly started talking.

"You said his signal is bad, so he must be somewhere near the mountains. What if he’s not?" Sage questioned.

"Then let’s make some groups and cover a certain area in a set time. How about that?" Rudy adjusted his black and orange jacket, probably his high school jock jacket. I should’ve known he was a jock before.

That was so written all over his face and in his body language.

"I want to be—" she started, but her brother gave her a head shake. He was always there to stop her from embarrassing herself. It was just that I knew her presence would worry Lamar. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}
