Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates - Chapter 436

Chapter 436: 436-They Took My Mate From Me
Helanie:

“Maximus, somebody help him—” I yelled in desperation for the first time after Maximus covered me with his body. Having a lycan give up his life for me was something I had never imagined. That’s when I heard another loud growl. I watched Maximus slowly step back, being dragged away from me. It was a big black wolf, almost unlike a werewolf. He looked more like a monster than just a normal werewolf. He had long limbs and a tiny head, but spikes all over his body.

I was so confused about who it was because I had never seen the other brothers in full werewolf form on full moon nights. Which one could it be?

He swung his arms around, trying to get the creatures off him. His body was tall, and his shoulders were broad. It seemed like he had some sort of wings on his back too, but they were more like a bat’s wings.

His screeches made the creatures scurry away, retreat, and come back to attack again, but they would be killed again.

Then another werewolf came. He was just as big and snarling as the first, but his spikes were gray. The two fought until dawn. They would defend me whenever those creatures targeted me, but for the most part, nobody really attacked me.

However, as a bystander, I got to see the battle firsthand and up close.

Although I was scared and worried for the ones in front of me, I was able to examine the creatures very well. Their main focus seemed to be the one with the black spikes. And somehow, I just had a feeling the one with the black spikes and scales was Emmet. The other could be Kaye or Norman.

I lifted my head and saw the morning arriving. I had lost blood too, from the bites on my legs, and the cold had made me dizzy. But I stayed awake somehow, bothered like I should have been.

Then, I watched the brothers transitioning back. It would be crazy if they transitioned back and the creatures kept coming.

The big one started to head away, in a form of a cloud, and the others began to follow, but not before they did one last bit of damage. Right before my eyes, the big creature gathered around Emmet, who was indeed the one with the black scales. As he finished his transition, the creatures snatched him away. The fog made him dizzy, I could tell. And they attacked him during his transition back, catching him off guard.

“EMMET, watch out!” I yelled as the big creature carried him away, dragging him like the wind.

“Shit!” The other one was Kaye. He screamed, but then he had to tend to Maximus, who had passed out and was losing blood while being on the cold ground in his human form.

When all was done, the creatures started rushing toward me because that’s where they were leaving from. I guess they decided to take a bite or two while they were at it.

“EMMET!” I screamed again, fully realizing that my shouts were gathering their attention. I wanted to present myself as bait so that the big creature would return, but it was leaving, dragging the unconscious Emmet with it.

A howl erupted, and Norman arrived in his half-human, half-werewolf form. His eyes were red, claws out, and his canines were visible as he swept the tiny creatures away from me. He sat on them, clawing their guts out before turning his attention to me. I could tell he was having a hard time checking on his brothers while coming to help me.

He reached me and untied my hands. As soon as I was free, I pushed him away when he tried to hold my arms to check on me.

“They took Emmet!” I screamed, almost falling to my knees. Moving my limbs after being tied in the snow for so long was difficult, but I knew I had to go after that monster to save Emmet.

“Noooo!” I screamed so loud that I nearly deafened myself.

“You need to go back. I’ll go find him,” Norman yelled in my ear from behind, picking me up off the ground to take me away.

“No! Let me go!” I elbowed him, but his hard body didn’t even bruise. He kept walking briskly through the snow.

“You better put me down, or I’ll eat everyone in the hostel where you’re taking me,” I growled, my voice so deep and demonic that he instantly put me down.

I yanked my sweater and glared into his eyes before huffing and puffing, moving forward.

I started briskly walking toward the trail. The snow would soon cover their tracks.

“Kaye, take care of Maximus. I’ll return with Emmet and Helanie,” I heard Norman tell his brother while he followed me.

Soon, he caught up with me, and the next thing I knew, he was putting his long black coat over me.

“I don’t need this,” I hissed, taking it off and handing it back to him.

“Where were you?” I yelled as I turned to face him. I was just so lost, I wanted to yell at someone, and right now, he was the one in front of me.

“I was at the mansion. The creatures attacked, and some of the broken windows let them inside and carry the ones in sight,” he explained, but I showed him my palm.

“I’m going after him—” I said and noticed him frown.

“What? You think I’m the reason he’s gone because he came to save me?” I yelled, tears streaming down my face.

“We’ll talk about it later,” he hissed, pointing toward the hostel.

“Go back, I’ll take care of that,” he demanded, causing me to clench my fists.

“Why? Because you think I’m the reason—” I yelled again, but he came at me, grabbing my arms harshly and shaking my body.

That day, I saw the angry Norman that everyone was afraid of.
