Sharing Beatrice A Luna to her Stepbrothers
Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee Book 2 Chapter 295 â Lost And Found âWhat is happening here?â Sofia asked Maddox once again, who was busy unfolding a blanket over Reign.
âSomething happened to her,â Maddox said, stepping aside so that Akin could check her pulse and everything.
âYou two were together last night?â Sofia asked, focusing on that instead of poor Reign suffering on the couch. She wasnât passed out, but she wasnât awake either. She would squirm and twist around the couch, curling into a ball, and groan in pain.
Title of the document âIs there something going on between you two? Are you two planning to date?â Sofia kept bombarding Maddox with all these questions while he was too busy worrying about Reign. I couldnât understand what was happening to her, but she seemed to be in pain.
âWere you two together?â she asked again, and this time, Maddox sighed and turned to look at her.
âYes, we were. Now would you please ask the maid to get her something to eat,â as he tiredly told his mother to take care of Reign, his eyes traveled behind her and finally spotted me? His face changed color, and a gulp ran down his throat.
âBeatrice!â he whispered, and soon his eyes scanned me, seeing Akinâs coat on me.
âHow are yââ Maddox stopped talking when Akin got up from beside Reign and stole his attention.
âShe will be fine. But let me know when she wakes up; I need to speak to her,â Akin said to Maddox, looking like there was something that worried him.
Maddox didnât ask too many questions but gave him a nod. I understood he wouldnât pester his brother in front of their mother, who would be waiting for gossip.
âLetâs lie her down in Beatriceâs room if she doesnât mind,â Akin looked my way after suggesting that.
âOf course, I donât mind,â I smiled, rea*s*suring him that I would be happy to have someone to speak to. I could tell Sofia didnât look too happy to see Reign being settled in the room with me.I was still in the coat when Maddox brought Reign into the room and laid her down.
âI will get some medicines for her,â Akin said, âBeatrice! I will ask the maid to prepare breakfast for you. You donât have to leave the room and get into an argument with my parents. Just stay here and you will be served, okay?â I appreciated his efforts to respect me. I wasnât comfortable enough with his parents to sit and eat with them.
While Akin left the room, Maddox stepped ahead to follow him, but instead, he slowed down right when he was walking past me.
âChange into something decent,â he clenched his jaw, âyou donât have to tell everyone you were with Akin last night,â he thought of me wearing Akinâs coat to be me sleeping with him.
I didnât correct him because he just admitted to being with Reign. We were not even together anymore, so his showing anger made no sense.
As he continued to walk out of the room, he stopped and stepped back when Akin dashed inside again. He looked agitated and anxious, making both Maddox and I worry about what it was about.
âWhat happened?â Maddox asked.
âI just received a call from the hospital,â Akin said in his deep voice. His parents rushed behind him, so I am a*s*suming they too heard the news.
But what news?
âIs Flynn okay?â Vasquez was the only one who seemed to be worried about Flynn.
âIt is not about him,â Akin declared, turning to face his father, âLady Varishaâher dead body was found behind the hospital,â the news covered my body in chills. I gasped and held my hands in my mouth while Vasquez seemed like he had been struck with lightning.
Everybody looked shocked. Maddox and Akin nodded at each other and left the room to comfort their father before the three left for the hospital. I stayed in the room and sat down beside Reign, watching her whimper nonstop.
âWhat is going on? Why is everything falling apart?â I felt miserable at the moment. There was not a single day when nobody died or no tragedy occurred.âWhy are you so worried? It is not like anybody dying was closer to us. Markus was an a*s*shole, and so was his psychotic mother. Varisha was a mean and selfish woman who didnât care what her son was up to. So, you should be happy and take it as a blessing that whoever messes with you dies from karma,â Ace cared less. I could hear in her voice that she wasnât bothered at all.
âThen what do you have to say about us losing a golden scale? Is that not our karma for maybe something we did wrong?â in order to make a point, I had to bring up that heart wrenching incident.
âPfft! Thatâs not how it works,â she argued with much sa*s*s, âwe didnât lose our dragon form, you silly,â she let out a laugh, but I frowned instead of celebrating. âWhat? then why didnât you tell me that when I was mourning?â I was upset with her for keeping things from me.
âIt felt good watching you cry for your dragon once instead of crying for others. It helped me realize you do love us,â she teased me, copying a British accent.
âThen what about our scale? Was it just a scale?â I asked with much interest. Now that I knew I wouldnât lose my dragon form, I could talk about the scales without feeling the pain of losing something dear.
âBeatrice! That scale is a powerful antidote,â her voice turned powerful, âto death. You give it to a dead person, and he wakes up,â
there was a hint of confidence in her voice that made me excited.
âWhat?â I got up from the bed after hearing how important that scale is. And that the drawing that Markus said was a joke turned out to be true. He only lied because he realized he didnât want to help me, but now that I had a golden scale, all I needed was to find his body.
Helelâs body!
