Chapter 464 Killed His Mother.

“Mom died,” Helel hung up and looked at Akin, his eyes shining with tears.

The mist covered Akin’s eyes as the two realized they had met with another loss yet again.

“Oh Goddess,” Reign covered her mouth to prevent the cries from leaving.

Nobody loved Mrs. Vasquez, but to hear about the death of one’s parent was just too much. Especially when they have lost most of their family members.

“But what happened?” Akin managed to get over his grief and ask Helel. “Somebody attacked the prison, freed most of the criminals, and killed a few. One of them was our mother,” Helel said with a sigh.

“So, the criminals are out too?” I too asked, as anxiety took over.

It has to be Zane and his crew. But did he really kill his mother?

The woman who was in prison in the first place for committing a crime to save his life, he ended up killing her? “I’ll go see what’s up,” Akin announced and rushed to the exit.

“You go, I’ll stay here with Gwen,” I gave a reassuring head nod to Helel, who sprinted after Akin once he got a confirmation from me.

Now that only a few of us were left behind, we began to express our shock at the news.

“He didn’t only kill her but also freed the crazy people,” I muttered anxiously, getting fed up with Zane and his twisted games.

“Did you not hear that their mother passed away?” Shiloh, who I thought would not repeat her mistakes, stood up with her hands on her waist and looked me in the eye.

“Shouldn’t you have said something soothing to them?” She continued to test my patience. So far, I haven’t said anything to her, and she was taking advantage of my silence.“Listen brat–,” Colt pushed me aside to face Shiloh and straightened his back. “Just because Akin isn’t around anymore doesn’t mean we will let you hurt or belittle Beatrice,” he threatened, his eyes changing color.

“Hey! I’m also the Alpha king’s mate,” she hissed, looking him back in the eye.

“And he made it very clear that he doesn’t want you,” Reign stood beside Colt, arguing with the arrogant girl.

“And who are you two? Why are you living here for free?” Shiloh had the audacity to speak to my friends like that. I closed my eyes and tried to calm down, as I had promised myself not to act up and come across as a jealous girlfriend, but this girl was testing my patience now.

“Can we all shut up for now?’ I asked, opening my eyes and not fixating my gaze on one person in particular.

“What is going on?” Jay came back after attending the restroom, and one look on his girlfriend’s face, and he knew she was messing with us once again.

“Baby! Look what they are doing to me. As soon as the brothers left, they came so strong on me,” she began to cry as she rushed into his arms. Jay stared at us with a sad pout on his lips and then patted her back reluctantly. One could tell he was suffering.

“I think it is better if we just leave. We can come back tomorrow,” Jay had only managed to say those words when Shiloh lifted her head from his chest and frowned, stepping away from him.

“And you will keep me safe?” she yelled. The sarcasm in her voice was so strong that I wished he had put his foot down instantly.

“I can try,” he innocently mumbled, pushing the glasses onto the bridge of his nose.

“Oh, please!” Shiloh raised her brow and her palm to dismiss his offer. “Your confidence will get me killed.”

It was evident that she didn’t like him. She seemed to be very bossy and dismissive of him. The poor guy had done nothing but wander around like her, as if he were her personal servant, but none of us said anything.

If he cannot see it, we cannot do anything about it.

“Not all of you want an innocent girl dead,” the dramatic eye roll when calling herself innocent made the others chuckle before I silenced them with a harsh look. I didn’t want to focus on all this right now. Zane had killed someone yet again, and I didn’t evenknow who his next target was.

“I will take a minute,” I said. “Reign! Can you please check on Gwen for me?” I asked, and when she nodded, Shiloh frowned.

“Helel’s mate is also staying here? The one who is pregnant? Ugh! Does that mean an annoying little creature will wander around this mansion and ruin our peace very soon?” The fact that she was considering staying here made me step up and look her in the eye.

She was messy with everyone, but I wouldn’t let her hurt Gwen with her words. Gwen was already dealing with a lot; I wouldn’t want another mess for her.

“It’s alright. You won’t be tolerating it anyway since you will be long gone from here,” I murmured, my eyes staring deep into her soul.

She gave her head a nod, but that sarcastic little grin caused me unease. Reign walked away to be with Gwen while I turned around and passed a quick side eye to Colt. He knew he had to follow me out now.

Once we were outside, he watched me walk back and forth before facing him. “Listen—I am going to do something stupid, but I want you to keep quiet for now,” I cleared my throat and said the words, watching his expression change.

“No! You are not going to meet the devil,” he said, shaking his head and immediately dismissing the idea.

“I am not going to meet him. I just want to talk to him to see how we can stop all these killings,” I said as I pouted, making colt stare at me and then roll his eyes.

“Your highness! You cannot use your innocent face for this purpose,” he sighed, but I could tell he was now onboard with the plan
