Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

310-Freed A Crazy One.

Maura Despair:

'Oh, shit!" I cursed, panicking while searching for her around.

'I shouldn't have set her free," I was cursing at myself, feeling like an idiot for the hundredth time in the

same day.

'Why would she do that? I wasn't going to stop her from leaving. If she told me she had to be

somewhere, then why?" I was yammering when trying to cover the area around the house.

It was impossible.

The truth was that she took the pendant and escaped. I was beginning to feel like I should have talked

to Zane first instead of giving her the pendant or setting her free.

’I need to speak with Zane," I rushed back inside and locked the doors, wondering if she would return

to hurt me just to keep her secret of fleeing safe.

After countless efforts, Zane answered my call, but it wasn't the concerned mate I had bothered.

'What? when someone doesn't respond on the very first call, it means they are busy,* he yelled from

the other side. It was at this moment that I forgot about Gwen and remembered the lie he told me when

he gave me the pendant.

’What is it?" he asked rudely, snapping me out of my thoughts.

’Why did you lie to me?* I asked in a whisper.

'What? when did I lie-—fuck!" He seemed to be interrupted at the wrong time. He was constantly

throwing fits around and cussing out of the blue, 'they were fucking kissing. Get over her," he then

yelled at someone who he was with.

’She is—,* I heard the familiar voice and instantly recognized the person.

It was Alpha King Maddox.

’She is— whatever she is. She is with Akin now. Didn't you see her in his mouth?" Zane was talking

angrily to his brother, "she is not here to kill us. She is just over us," Zane seemed to be saying some

incoherent words.

At this point, I wondered if he even knew he was still on the phone with me.

'It is not about who she is with right now. It is the fact that she is a princess,* Maddox explained in a

broken voice.

Princess Beatrice!

They were talking about her. Well, at least Maddox was, because Zane seemed to be upset about the

fact that he saw her with Akin.

Why would he be upset when he has marked his mate and is keeping her in his little home away from

everyone?

’She is not a bad person. Her being a princess means she is a royal, that's it. There is no way she is

here to take revenge on us,* Zane scoffed when defending Beatrice to his brother, 'please calm down.’

He was much calmer now.

So he knew that she was a princess? Is this why he lied to me about the pendant? Because he didn't

want to give me the pendant that belonged to his beloved Beatrice?

I cut the call short just to dial again and get his attention.

’Hm?’ He sounded so tired of me when he picked up my call once again.

'You lied about the pendant for her," I started yammering this time, "you gave me the wrong one

because you wanted to keep the other one for her? You could have told me and I would have not

complained but to lie about it—."

As I began to cry, he started paying attention to me.

’What?" He seemed confused.

'You knew Beatrice was a princess, and my mother's pendant is her pendant," I mumbled in sobs.

’Wait! What do you mean by that? I swear, I had no idea she was a princess until a few hours ago, and

yes, I lied about the pendant because I couldn’t find your mother's pendant and I wanted to comfort you

somehow. But—what do you mean by your mother's pendant is—hers?’ He seemed to be only paying

attention to me because he found out another mystery about Beatrice.

The fact that he knew about her form and everything while he didn't tell me just blew my mind off.

’You knew she was a weredragon," I was shocked.

Unintentionally, he exposed himself for knowing about her and be fine with it when he ignored me for

weeks after finding out I was a Huldra.

'Gwen! Tell me, how does your mother's pendant look like?" He asked me again while I sobbed. I knew

why he wanted to know.

’It is a red one—with wings and pearls—,’ I sniffled, recalling the exact words of Gwen. My mother had

given me many details about various kinds of pendants when she was tied in the basement. It was from

the fact that her memory was blurred and she kept recalling the babies who she used to babysit and

their pendants.

I could have lied to Zane, but I didn’t want to. Beatrice needs to find her pendant so that she can return

home and save our people.

’By the way, how did you know about the pendant?" The eeriness in his voice when questioning me

made me gulp.

’I just knew—I remembered my mom's words when we were sitting under the tree and all," I lied, as I

couldn't tell him I might have messed up by freeing Gwen.

'Can you please come over? I am scared," I whispered, looking around in fear of Gwen coming back for

me.

'I am busy," he sounded blunt when denying it, "I have to take care of my brother," he didn't even ask

me why I was so scared and hung up on me.

I remained motionless, my tears streaming from my eyes, and I was in a bad mood.

'I shouldn't have come here. I cut myself out and agreed to stay in isolation. All that for what? He will

only return when he wants to sleep with me, and then he will leave. This is not love. I have to leave and

inform Beatrice about Gwen myself. I have to stay beside my princess and follow her orders," I sniffled

and grabbed my bag to fill it with the clothes Zane left here for me and with some food to rely on when I

am on my way back to her Royal Highness.
