139-The Brotherly Rivalry
Beatrice’s POV:
Helel pushed his mother out of my room, and I hesitantly grabbed my phone to call back Colt before
telling my mother what Sofia had done to me.
“Colt!” I sighed when he picked up my call.
“I got your messages and ran out of the woods,” he said, panting as I assumed he was running around.
“I’m so sorry for what Helel did.” I closed my eyes and sighed, gently touching my bruised cheek.
“It wasn’t a surprise to me. I knew the Alpha Kings hate weredragons, and the day they find out they
have a were- dragon living among them, they will go crazy,” Colt answered with sadness in his voice.
“I am so sorry that I got you in this much trouble,” I mum- bled in guilt. I was going to tell him about my
dragon too, but now that I realized how he was himself in so much trouble, I didn’t want to trouble him
more.
“Oh! Come on. You did nothing wrong,” he replied. I didn’t tell him anything when we spoke for a few
minutes. I would rather let him flee the country and save himself than suffer because of me.
I hung up on him after a few minutes, and then the knock- ing on my door began.
“Mom! Stop it!” I heard Maddox and others yelling at her. Now that she has started this nonsense, I feel
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlike I have to stay in my room and let my mother arrive.
“Fine. I will not say anything, but you will have to resolve this issue. Ask her if she has gotten in bed with
any of her step—brothers,” she muttered as the thought disgusted her.
“I will speak to her. But you have to leave now,” Akin said from the other side of the door.
“I will be in my room. You better warn her for staying away from my sons,” Sofia muttered, probably
walking away be- cause I could no longer hear her yell and grin from the other side.
Akin didn’t come to ask me anything because he knew the entire truth. There was no point in having that
conversation. But the person who came again was Helel.
It was the right time for me to tell him I knew what he had done. I would not be able to keep this to myself
and act like he did nothing wrong.
I opened the door for him and watched him stare at my face.
“Let me apply something to it.” He looked sad when he saw the bruise on my face.
“And what will you apply to the trust you broke?” As soon as I said those words, he narrowed his eyes in
bewilderment at my face. We were standing at the entrance of my room. I didn’ t want to walk inside and
lock the door after us. His mother had already imagined a lot and kind of guessed everything. was right.
“I don’t get what you are talking about,” Helel said, trying to come closer to me so that we don’t have to
raise our voices when talking to each other.
“Helel! I know,” I said, and he frowned.
“You know what?” he asked, his arms folded on his chest and his eyes darting at me with questions.
“You wanted to catch Colt,” I said, and Helel’s jaw met the floor.
“Wait—,” he closed his eyes and then cleared his throat, “He was fooling you, Beatrice. He is not what he
seemed to be. He has hidden a big truth from you. The truth about him being a weredragon! He is going
to harm you soon. So yes! I am going to do whatever I can to save you from his claws.” The way Helel
was talking, I was just silently watching his face.
I didn’t know how to respond to him when he stated ev- erything in such a way that I only heard him raise
a concern. for my safety.
“I don’t know what your relationship with him is, but I can tell he is very special to you. However, I am
only doing this be- cause I don’t want him to harm you,” he explained, waiting for me to respond to him,
but when I stayed silent, he anxiously stepped back and forth.
“Y— I was finally at the point of responding to him when Maddox appeared out of nowhere and we shut
up.
“What is going on?” Maddox asked, passing a quick stare to Helel and then to me, “What happ— did my
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmother do to you?” Maddox rushed between us and even pushed Helel away from me.
“I am fine,” I excused, nuzzling his hand away when he tried touching the bruise on my face.
“Helel! How could you have let her do this to her? And why the heck was you in the room with her? Didn’t
you know it would raise Mom’s suspicions?” Unexpected by Maddox, he started raising questions about
Helel’s actions.
“You are my younger brother, don’t try to control me.” Helel’s response was even harsher. The way
Maddox closed his eyes and then opened them to face him, I knew they were up for a fight.
“Look at her. She suffered because of you. And don’t for- get, mom has called her mother and yelled all
sorts of things at her, including the accusations that Beatrice might be sleep- ing with you,” Maddox
explained what Sofia had been doing after she caught us in the room. And just the thought of it was
enough to freeze my mind.
“She told my mom what?” I gently placed my hand on Maddox’s shoulder to turn him around to look at
me.
He looked guilty for talking about it, but now that I was waiting for his response, he answered with his
eyes lowered.
“My mom has demanded your mother come over and take you to the doctor to see if you are still a virgin.
If not— she is going to accuse you of sleeping wi—th your stepbroth- ers,” Maddox finished, making my
heart flip inside my chest.
That was not supposed to happen.
