Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

222-Forbidden Mate.

"Tell everyone the party is over. There will be no engagement ceremony today,’ Lord Vasquez said,

keeping his head down.

Akin passed a quick glance around before walking out to dismiss the crowd, which by now wouldn't

need any excuse for why the engagement was canceled.

"He is just a kid,’ Varisha uttered, watching her son, who was simply glaring at me.

I have been giving super neutral expressions whereas everybody else was in their full feelings.

"And you killed our brother for him." Maddox might have arrived at the time when the whole show was

played before the audience, but he didn't come upstairs until Mr. Vance and Mariah left. Lady Sofia

leaned to the side in the doorway to watch the destruction of Vasquez.

She looked almost amazed. One couldn't blame her, though.

"I didn't know—" Flynn uttered, but then his mother's angry glare silenced him.

"Huh!" Maddox let out a scoff.

"You want to hear your father admit he made a mistake?" Lord Vasquez asked Maddox, who was

restlessly walking back and forth in the room while the others were stuck to the side.

"Yes! I'm guilty. I'm regretting and I’m missing my - - - - son!" Lord Vasquez muttered as tears rushed

down his cheeks.

The smirk Lady Sofia's lips once carried was no longer a sight.

The mere mention of Helel had brought a sorrowful glint to her eyes.

"What's your regret going to do for us?" Maddox slammed his phone on the ground as he glared at his

father and demanded eye contact.

"I am sorry!" Flynn uttered, trying to get Lord Vasquez’s attention. He didn't want Vasquez to remember

and cry for Helel because that would mean Flynn wasn't good enough.

"Get him out of my sight,* Lord Vasquez turned his face to the other side and demanded Varisha take

Flynn away.

"Everybody leave me and my family alone for a minute," he then added, and I understood he was

talking about me.

I let out a sigh and walked out of the room, with Maddox giving me a brief, silent glance.

Once I was in the corridor and waiting for their meeting to be over, I saw Varisha and Flynn stopping by

to have a word with me.

"Why did you do that? My son had finally gotten the happiness he deserved, and you took it away from

him. Why?* She was sobbing as she questioned me.

I was amazed to see how far a mother is willing to go for her son.

"Your son admitted to being a shitty person, and you are questioning me? But since you asked why I

did that, ask your son if he blackmailed me into sleeping with him or not. Just because I didn't cry or

shout didn't mean I enjoyed it. I was left with no choice but to give my body to him," I muttered, not

breaking eye contact with her.

She gulped and then turned to look at her son, who was now hesitantly stealing eyes from his mother.

The two didn't say another word and left for their rooms, while the brothers started walking out of the

room, looking defeated.

"We should say goodbye to the guests," Akin suggested to Zane, who nodded and rushed after him

while Maddox slowed down and walked straight back to me.

"I— don't have words but—thank you!" He looked almost ashamed.

I didn't want to accuse him of anything. What happened between US was meant to happen. We started

our relationship on the basis of no growth. It was supposed to meet a downfall.

"And I'm sorry for - - I knew what he meant.

"It's alright. I have erased that night from my life," I referred to the night where I had to give myself to

Flynn to save Maddox.

"No! I’m guilty because I couldn't understand it at that time," he uttered. "I wish I could go back in time

and fix things, but I need a minute to think through everything now. This information is a lot for me.” He

looked phased out, so I didn't urge any discussion with him.

He turned around and hastily walked away from me.

Now that it was only me standing outside the room, I could hear the conversation Lady Sofia was

having with Lord Vasquez.

"You killed our son for this boy." Lady Sofia’s voice carried a pain only a mother would understand.

"Our Helel!" she suddenly yelled. "We have sworn to take care of our boys, and this is what you did.

We once fought with the weredragons for our son, and now you can't fight the inner demon for your

son?* Her words and the mention of the weredragons got me worried.

What do the weredragons have to do with the brothers?

"Could you please tell me where my son’s body is?" She almost begged, and that was the part that

shook the world from under my feet. Even she didn't know where his body was.

That was it for me. I stormed into the room to have a word with Lord Vasquez, who looked shocked at

my barging in.

"Where is his body?" The aggression I used in my voice left Sofia in shock.

"You cannot hide a former alpha king's body like that." I have never been so angry in my life before,

and Lord Vasquez could tell I was not going to back down now.

"I can do whatever I want. He was my son, not yours. You are not one to ask me questions or question

me,’ he yelled, shaking in anger or regret. Who could tell?

"But she can—," Sofia seemed a little inclined towards me. However, I wouldn't know for sure because

Lord Vasquez interrupted her as he pointed his finger at me.

"You! You are the reason all this happened. Everything is your fault. If you hadn't befriended that

weredragon boy, my son would never have helped him and would have died. You are forbidden from

ever setting a foot on my property," he screamed, clenching his jaw and trembling aggressively.
