Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 699

Chapter 699: 699-Only I Love Him

Azura:

I was so glad I came out at the right time to support Emmet. The sad part was that Norman, who loved his brother so much, was suddenly acting up.

I didn’t understand how they could excuse Kaye trying to kill Helanie because of the curse, or that Maximus tried to attack her, and everybody else, even his own brother, but they were still against Emmet just because he did it for someone else.

I guess the real problem was that Helanie and her big ego didn’t like the fact that, for once, she wasn’t the one being prioritized. She didn’t care if the baby died or anything. The only thing that mattered to her was that he did it for me, for someone else. So basically, he chose me over her. Even if it was during the curse, she wouldn’t care.

I had seen right through her the first time I met her. She was an opportunist, dramatic and full of herself. She wanted all the mates for herself. She wanted to be with all of them, but couldn’t even tolerate the thought of her mates thinking about someone else.

In the last few days, I found out how she had somehow convinced Norman to kick out Jessica, the one they had betrayed. They were master manipulators, the two of them, Norman and Helanie.

At that moment, I realized I needed to take Emmet away from these two. And from the others, too. They were just Norman’s tail. They would follow him wherever he went, in whatever direction he picked. So really, they weren’t that important.

But it did sadden me that Helanie tried to spin it like I had just gone to the hospital, and blah blah blah—just making up a story to convince everyone that it was my fault. I didn’t like that woman. And I was so right about her.

And suddenly, when I said Emmet should leave, she jumped back into the whole act, like, oh, now I don’t want to punish Emmet? Then why the hell did she make such a fuss about it? Why did she bring in three of his brothers, all active and ready to attack him?

She was such a hypocrite. She wanted someone else to do her bidding while she kept her hands clean. And now that one of her mates was about to escape her manipulation trap, she was all riled up. So I gave her one more piece of truth.

She looked at me with those eyes that showed she had lost. That’s what it was for her, just about winning.

"It’s true. We felt the mate bond last night," I said determinedly, not lying.

I felt it. I felt every connection last night with Emmet. And I couldn’t thank the Moon Goddess enough for it. I guess it was bound to happen. Helanie couldn’t just have four mates and enjoy the fun. Now let’s see how she accepts their fated mates.

But the look on her face told me she wasn’t happy about it either. She looked completely destroyed, because just like I said–She wasn’t going to be prioritized anymore.

"Brother, what is she saying?" Maximus stepped forward to speak, because of course, Norman had nothing left to say. How could he ask Emmet to stay when he had been all up in his face, grabbing his collar and shaking him like that? Disrespecting him?

Emmett looked down, then slowly nodded.

"It’s true. I felt it," he uttered. And Helanie let out a gasp, stepping back from me.

"Are you sure? Or did you forget?" Kaye started to mutter. The words clearly offended Emmet.

Forgetting is one thing. But now they were basically accusing him of making it all up?
