Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 691

Chapter 691: 691-Broken And Alone.

Helanie:

"What is going on here?" Norman asked, his eyes full of tears.

I was still not able to process how to react to the information Kaye had given me. He had broken the kiss almost instantly when he noticed I wasn’t participating, but then he had to mark me. He still had to mark me.

"I need to mark her before it’s too late again," Kaye uttered awkwardly, while I stood still. I could hear commotion around me, as if the others had arrived too. By others, I meant Darcy and her royal beta.

Kaye gently pushed my hair off my shoulder and buried his face in my neck. Norman and the others were in my line of sight, but my teary eyes remained on Norman, who looked hurt.

He was the one who was hurt? Did I do him wrong? Did I hide the truth from him? I left the idea of being with my mate for him, and he hid such a big truth from me?

Norman looked away when Kaye’s teeth pierced through my skin, and I closed my eyes. The mark of a mate was able to console me for a bit. The burning feeling of setting the world on fire had calmed down by then. But it will rise again. Of course it will. There is no way anyone would hear what happened to their baby and not be traumatized.

After Kaye was done marking me and pulled back, Norman walked over to reach me, "you were really at the courthouse that night?" I am guessing he had called people around and found out the truth about that night.

"And what about you?" My question made him slowly turn around to me.

"What did I do? What are you on about? How could you lie to us, Helanie?" Him looking hurt in the moment was driving me crazy. He had no right to hide such a truth from me. What was he trying to do? Obviously securing his brother’s reputation.

"What are you angry with me for?" I tilted my head, and he frowned.

"You went there and were ready to marry Emmet," He bobbed his head to the words he spoke. Kaye snapped his head at me, showing shock while his mother covered her mouth to control the yelp that might have wanted to escape her lips.

"But I didn’t. I thought you and Maximus were genuinely not ready for me to accept Emmet until–" I nodded my head repeatedly as well, my voice giving away the pain I was feeling.

"Shit," I heard Kaye curse. He probably remembered why I was so lost.

"Do you know what is going on?" Darcy asked Kaye in a whisper, but I was able to hear it. At that moment, I didn’t pay too much attention to it, but they were quiet and at a distance, yet I was still able to hear them.
