Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates - Chapter 107

Chapter 107: 107-Cursed Like No One

Helanie:

“What are you doing? Have you lost your mind or what?” I screamed at her in a muffled tone through my phone while Lamar stood behind me, waiting for me to confront him.

I had called her instantly after she left.

“Yeah, that’s fine, Helanie. You can use my hairbrush. I’m sneaking out with Gavin for a transition. See you later,” she said. The hesitation in her voice, as she acted like she had done nothing wrong while being around Gavin, made me roll my eyes hard at her.

Once she hung up the call, I realized she was so embarrassed that she couldn’t even face me. But the guy behind me was shameless. He stood tall, his eyes on me as I turned to face him.

“Wanna eat some food? It’s getting cold,” he acted so nonchalantly, as if he hadn’t been caught shoving his tongue down my friend’s throat. How many times am I going to catch them together?

Was Lucy just looking for excuses to cheat on Gavin? At this point, it seemed like it.

“Why are you doing this?” I asked him, probably throwing my anger at the wrong person. He wasn’t the one in a committed relationship; he wasn’t the one who had a mate he was cheating on.

Sure, he was wrong, but the huge blame lay with Lucy. As a friend to Lucy and a Lamar hater, I was obviously taking my anger out on him instead.

“I don’t know what happened. I was talking to her, and she suddenly got on her tiptoes and kissed me,” he tried to sound nonchalant but came off as ignorant.

“It wasn’t just a kiss. You two were checking out each other’s tonsils,” I muttered.

“That— I’m just a guy, a guy with needs. If a girl is going to throw herself at me, I’m not going to push her away. Besides, I believe in giving women pleasure,” he sighed and sat down, not even bothering to look guilty this time.

At least he felt guilty last time.

“What happened to pleasuring Sydney?” I brought it up without fear. I remembered they had warned me not to ever talk about it, but screw it. If they dared try to hurt me now, I would scream so loud that I’d make the Moon Goddess sitting in heaven on her throne hear it and bleed from her ears.

“Well, you told Lucy about it,” he frowned at me but I did not care. And yes! I have told Lucy and had also told her to not tell anyone that I told her but I guess when gets angry, she just spills whatever is in her mind and heart.

“Well, I did Sydney, didn’t I? If she wants more, she’ll ask for it. But I won’t put her business out,” he said, shaking his head and pretending to zip his lips with his fingers. That was probably a taunt at me for letting Lucy in on that secret.

“Come have some food,” he added, pulling out fast food items and placing them on the bed, offering me to eat with him.

Suddenly, saliva started to form in my mouth. I was hungry, and I hated it, but I needed to eat for two. However, I had been avoiding food altogether.

I just didn’t want to admit anything.

“No, thank you!” With a stomp of my foot, I returned to my bed and lay down. I didn’t like lying in bed when the lights were on and there was someone in the dorm—especially Lamar.

But I hid under the blanket, my hand reaching for my belly.

What am I going to do? How am I going to deal with all this?

I was tired and exhausted, so I fell asleep.

I woke up to the sensation of something strange happening to me. It was a weird pain in my back, and I swear I could feel something wet between my legs.

I didn’t understand it at all. So, I rushed to the bathroom in the dark, slamming the door shut and turning on the lights. That’s when I saw it—water pooling between my legs.

“Huh?” I muttered. Then, I noticed my belly. It had grown so much that it left me in complete shock. I placed a trembling hand over it and frowned. This couldn’t be happening. I had only found out about my pregnancy recently—maybe a week or two ago. So how could this be possible?

Tears began welling up in my eyes as panic consumed me. “How is this possible?” I whispered, fear and terror gripping me.

I quickly undressed from bottom down and sat down on the cold bathroom floor, gasping as the pain started tearing me apart from the inside.

“What is happening to me?” I groaned, clenching my fists and biting my tongue to stop myself from screaming. But the pain only grew worse, spreading through my body like fire.

I could feel something moving, forcing its way out of me. Then came the most unbearable pain I had ever experienced.

“Ahhhh!” I screamed in agony, not even realizing I had woken up the others in the dorm.

A knock on the door made me flinch, but my focus quickly returned to my body, writhing in pain.

“Helanie! Are you okay? What’s going on?” Lucy yelled, banging hard on the door.

“Do you want me to break it down?” I heard Lamar ask her. I shook my head frantically, too overwhelmed to shout at them to stop.

Then—it happened. My worst fear came to life as I watched in horror. A baby slid out of me.

It was like a scene from a nightmare. The baby, crying loudly, was covered in blood and still attached to me by the umbilical cord.

“No!” I cried out, too shocked to even hold the baby. My mind reeled. This couldn’t be real. How could it be?

I hadn’t even been pregnant long enough for this to happen!

Just then, Lamar broke down the door and rushed inside, followed closely by Lucy. Their eyes widened in disbelief as they took in the sight before them—a baby, me, and the mess that none of us were prepared to face.
