Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates - Chapter 212

Chapter 212: 212-Lamar Played Dirty

Helanie:

“That is not what we mean when we say the seniors are allowed to bully juniors. It is mostly by words or by challenging them to a combat in front of the trainers,” Norman said, his eyes narrowed as he spoke in anger.

“That is why Alpha Penn did it. I am sure it was the wrong way–,” I uttered.

“And two wrongs don’t make it right. I will definitely spare you and everyone involved, but the fine has to be paid,” Norman added, making me sigh in relief.

“We will pay for your fine,” Maximus quickly added, but I noticed Norman tilt his head to glower at his brother for making that decision without his permission.

“It is alright. I will do it on my own this time,” that was the plan. I wanted to get a job and do something for myself. Maybe they were right; we all needed a job so that we don’t wander around after academy and get ourselves in trouble.

“May I leave now? My friend–Lucy Dixon is not feeling well, and I have to go check up on her before I am headed to the ground for target practicing,” I said to the brothers, who still looked pretty angry at the fact that seniors did this to us.

“Sure,” Norman said, eyeing me to leave the application behind.

As I was headed out, I heard Emmet say something that caught my attention. “The top seniors will be pursued for getting physical, as well as they need to apologize to the juniors.”

At least there was justice somewhere. I left for the hostel to check up on Lucy and, weirdly enough, I noticed someone was using the elevator.

That was odd.

Nobody uses the elevator unless it is me or someone extremely sick. There was only one person who was sick today.

“Lucy!” I uttered her name, rushing to take the stairs. I just had a very bad feeling about her taking the elevator.

It took me a while, but I noticed my strength had gotten better now that I am more on the active side of my lifestyle.

I reached the top and went straight into my room to find Lucy sitting in her bed with a food tray from the hostel’s kitchen in her lap.

“Hey, was it a half day?” she asked, a very subtle and weak smile on her lips.

“Umm, no! I came here to check on you. Were you–in the elevator?” I asked, feeling a bit shy to question her simple action.

“Yeah. I couldn’t really take the stairs. I’m still having such a headache, but I wanted food, so I took the elevator because that was easier,” she answered, taking a big bite from her sandwich.

“Oh, okay. I will go to the ground for practice. Please message me if you need anything, okay?” I was relieved that she was taking care of herself. Last night, when she heard the truth, she had gone numb.

“Okay,” she smiled, and while I was heading out, she added, “And Helanie, thank you so much.”

Well, I was happy to be there for her. But right now, I needed to go practice some more. As we stood in a line, ready to take our spots and start practicing, I watched Lamar arrive. I remembered he had skipped the first two classes as well.

And now, he looked like a mess. His shirt was all messy, and bags were under his eyes.

The minute Jenny saw him, she tried to rush over to him, but I held her hand to stop her.

“Not here. There have been complaints about him already. I was barely able to dodge the punishment, but we were still fined. So, can we do all this once we are off the ground?” I whispered in haste before she confronted him in front of everyone and our group was tagged as the messiest juniors ever.

Thankfully, she understood, but not before she received a text from her mate. I knew it was her mate because every time he texted her, she would roll her eyes hard.

“Dammit, he is here,” she muttered under her breath, rightfully upset, as this was our practice class. Why the heck was her mate coming here now?

We didn’t have much time to react because we saw that asshole walk onto the ground and speak to Maximus. I guess he asked to have a little chat with his mate. Maximus let him, watching him walk over to us. My body shuddered, and I started looking around, even more puzzled because Maximus was watching us.

“Everyone else, go back to your positions and start practicing. I will now start approaching everyone and give them separate time,” Maximus announced, but I was distracted by how angry that bastard looked as he grabbed Jenny’s hand to pull her away from the ground.

I just couldn’t stand here because I was curious. I had to know everything about him so that I know when and how to attack him.

Hence, I followed but stayed a little afar from them, still behind the trees as they faced each other on the road.

“What is it?” Jenny hissed at him.

“What did you do last night?” he asked her, phrasing his question with better details next time, “When I left, what did you do? You weren’t stressed out. In fact, you were happy that your brother took a stand for you. So tell me, what the fuck did you do that I felt that much pain?” he muttered under his breath, his hands tightly balled into fists.

I was scared for her. He was a dangerous and nasty creature who had no knowledge of right and wrong.

If she told him that she had cheated on him, he might even hit her. I knelt down and grabbed a rock, just in case it was needed, but I was shaking so badly that I didn’t know if I could even make a good hit.

“I was practicing,” Jenny threw the same excuse in his face that he had been throwing in her face for a while.

“Jenny! Tell me, what did you do?” As he tried to smile, which made him look even creepier, someone arrived who shouldn’t have intervened.

“I will tell you what she did. She did me.” It was Lamar, standing tall with a smirk on his lips.
