Sharing Beatrice A Luna to her Stepbrothers
Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee Book 2 Chapter 200 â They Come To Bully Me.
Beatriceâs POV:
I have been in a weird position with everyone. Pamela was taking good care of me, but so far I have cracked her. She was only nice to the girls, whom she thought was miserable. The ones who were strongly loved by someone were not her cup of tea. So maybe she just wanted to surround herself with frills who are miserable and unable to think about anything but their troubles.
I went to the cafe with a heavy heart. My head still hurts, and my pill bottle will soon run out of pills. Now that my mother was no longer a rogue she-wolf, nor was she a soon- to-be lady. I donât know how she was planning to get me pills.
Title of the document We were not exactly pack members, as nobody wanted US and neither were we rogues. So, it was pretty safe to say we were neither here nor there.
I would usually walk out of the house and look at the tall gra*s*s, but that habit was no longer a choice. After I watched Markus look at me as if I were a meal, I couldnât stomach leaving at night.
I had borrowed some money from my mother because I wanted to call Akin from a telephone booth this time. However, the instant I walked out of the kitchen with an apron on, I saw Maddox sitting in the cafe.
âCome here!â His tone was extremely discourteous when calling for me. I stared at him for a moment before walking away. There were few customers, as it was still so early.
âGood morning, sir, what would you like to have?â I asked him, forcing a smile across my lips and keeping my eyes on the notepad I was holding.
âWhatever I ordered yesterday,â he said.
I raised my eyes only a little and noticed him scanning me from head to toe. âSo, how is this life treating you? I suppose you must be having a hard time walking through the tall gra*s*s every day and not taking a fancy car with many guards,â he commented with a scoff.âIt is treating me well.â I didnât want to indulge in a conversation with someone who was still hurt and mourning his brotherâs death. If Helel wasnât in the equation, I might have spent some time educating Maddox, but right now, he looked like a broken brother, and I wouldnât ever hurt anyone who was related to Helel.
âI heard some dead bodies had been found in the field. In fact, I heard you are the one whoââ He paused as he stared behind me after the cafe door opened and somebody walked in. I turned around only a little to see Zane walking in and staring deeply into my eyes. Of course, he knew I worked here, but his gaze was always silent and intense.
âGood morning, sir,â I said, stepping aside but instantly lowering my eyes.
âHow are you, Beatrice?â Instead of treating me like a server, he said my name and sat down from across the table with his brother.
âI am good,â I answered, keeping my eyes down.
âWhat are you doing here?â Maddox asked Zane, and I could tell he wasnât happy to see him here.
âI should ask you this question, brother! I know you are angry and frustrated, but taking your anger out on someone who didnât even do anything with bad intent is just not right.â Zane spoke directly to Maddox in a low, deep tone.
âI donât know what you are talking about. I only came here to enjoy breakfast,â Maddox grunted, maybe not liking the idea that his brother had come here and was lecturing him. I honestly expected Zane to be very mad at me, but he looked fine.
âShe has been through a lot. Donât make it any harder for her.â Zane spread his hand out on the table and steadily held the pepper shaker.
âWe have been through a lot, Zane. We lost our brother,â Maddox complained, not happy that his brother didnât acknowledge his suffering.
âShe lost her mate and everything. Her life reset after what happened. Donât put the blame on her, and send the energy to the mastermind behind this mess,â Zane hinted at Flynn. The way he said his name was enough for me to know he hated him. And who wouldnât?
Flynn wasnât only an abandoned child, but someone who had come back in spite and killed an innocent man. The fact that Zane and Flynn used to be friends and then Flynn slept with his girlfriend makes me think he found out about his relationship with Lord Vasquez sooner and decided to steal everything from the brothers that he thought belonged to him.âBeatrice! Go inside,â Zane said to me, keeping his eyes on Maddox, who was glaring at him.
âBut I was taking his order,â I whispered.
âHe will ask someone else,â Zane added, but just when I was about to leave, Maddox stole my attention with his one sentence.
âDonât stay at work till late hours,â he grumpily mumbled. I know why he said that. He was warning me of the monster in the fields.
I went into the kitchen and took off my apron. It wasnât easy watching them again and not being able to interact with them like I used to.
âWhat happened? You didnât take the orders?â Maura asked me as she walked into my view, her hands behind her pack and tying the apron.
âI couldnât. The Alpha King brothers are here,â I stated in a murmur, but the way her face lit up confused me.
âAlpha King Zane is here.â She asked out of the blue, making me watch her face in silence until she explained, âHe is a regular here. He leaveâs big tips,â she smiled awkwardly.
âYeah! He is outside with Alpha King Maddox,â I said, pointing at the door.
Maura had a huge smile plastered over her lips when she rushed out of the kitchen like a butterfly. I couldnât help but notice her mood change every time Zaneâs name was mentioned to her.
