Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates - Chapter 106

Chapter 106: 106-There Are Freaks Everywhere

Helanie:

I was shocked when he made it seem like he was only controlling his anger because of me. Why would he care?

“Huh, you want me to believe you even care?” Lucy said what I wanted to say.

“Of course I do, because she’s the only sensible person around me,” he grinned, complimenting me. I rolled my eyes because I did not believe he truly thought of me in that light.

“Is that why you tried to kill her? Because you hate sensible people?” Lucy taunted him.

If I didn’t know these two, I would have thought they were lovers. The two argued endlessly and also weirdly enough, the two had sex the last time they were annoyed with each other. Even the thought of that sight made me nauseous.

“Hah! You’re just taking advantage of the fact that I’m not responding to you in the same tone. You’re saying whatever you think suits you while I’m being a gentleman and holding back my anger,” he replied, perhaps giving himself a little too much credit.

The two started muttering at each other when my phone beeped. With a frown on my forehead, I stared at the caller ID.

I had saved some numbers, as the academy told us to. One of them was Kaye’s number. So why was it that Kaye was messaging me at this hour of the night?

While the two argued, I checked the message, and my mouth dropped. It was a half-picture of him, from his chin down to his chest. His black shirt was only partially opened, but it was his hand with a tattoo on the back of it sliding into the shirt that made me gasp. His Adam’s apple looked so appetizing. His strong and sharp collarbones seemed to call for me.

I stared at the image, feeling the heat rush to my cheeks. The strong, veiny hands with a black ring on his finger, and the tattooed hand sliding into the shirt— it was such a sight.

I felt my heart flutter for a moment.

“Right, Helanie?” Lucy calling my name made me realize I had been staring at my phone for way too long, and in the meantime, those two continued to argue.

I hadn’t even listened to what they were saying. My eyes kept diverting to the image and then to Kaye typing something.

What was he going to say now? Was it a tease?

“Hmm,” I simply nodded at Lucy, who frowned before turning back to argue with Lamar.

“See? She agrees too,” Lucy hissed at him.

“You want me dead?” The pain in Lamar’s voice made me realize what Lucy had probably said.

“No! I mean, don’t drag me into your argument,” I protested, more curious and focused on what Kaye was doing than on the two of them at that moment. I knew their argument could wait—I needed to check Kaye’s message as soon as possible.

That’s when Kaye’s message popped up on the screen. I read it immediately, but what I saw was something I didn’t expect.

Trainer Kaye: Sorry, it was meant to be for someone else.

It was as if he had slapped me through the phone. I just stared at the text, wondering why.

How could he send this to me and then say it was meant for someone else? And wait! Who was it for?

Didn’t he say he remembered that we were mates and that he wanted to be with me? Was all that bullshit just for the show?

I was glaring at the screen in anger. I don’t even know why I was so angry when I had rejected his advances and told him clearly to move on because I wasn’t looking for a mate.

It had to be because he lied about trying to win me over.

I shook my head, unable to gather my thoughts and understand why I was so upset about all of this.

I grunted and typed a text in haste.

Me: Maybe chek the caller ID well next time beffore you send an ev3n riskier picture.

I hit the send button, and only after that did I realize the many typos. I was so angry that I created a mess of a text.

But it didn’t matter. He would get the point that he should be careful.

Trainer Kaye: Why are you awake at this hour? Don’t you have classes tomorrow?

I rolled my eyes at his audacity to ask me when he’s being inappropriate and sending out images.

I don’t know what got into me, but I decided to be a little petty myself.

Me: I was talking to Lamar and Lucy. We were discussing some plans for the weekend.

It was a lie, and I wanted him to know I had a guy I was talking to.

Trainer Kaye: Lamar? Are you friends with him now?

I smirked, like I had done something, and typed.

Me: Yeah! Pretty close.

However, his response really got on my nerves.

Trainer Kaye: hahahahahaha

What was that? Was he making fun of me, or did he succeed in getting a heated response from me? I put my phone down when I realized the room had gone awfully silent. Actually, not silent, but there were weird noises that stole my attention. Noise of little smooching.

That’s when I raised my head to see Lucy and Lamar making out.

“What the fuck, you guys?” I shouted, jumping off the bed to physically separate them. They had their tongues in each other’s mouths and all that. Once I got between them and pushed them away, I glared at Lucy for answers.

“Seriously? What the heck is wrong with you two?” I yelled, my breath quickening and my heartbeat racing.

I take back my earlier thought of mistaking them for lovers. They were complete freaks.

“I’ll go find Gavin,” Lucy muttered anxiously before storming out of the room, leaving me alone with Lamar to deal with.

Of course, she fled the scene. But that didn’t mean I wouldn’t corner them for answers—starting with Lamar.
