Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates - Chapter 452

Chapter 452: 452-Let’s Kill The Snowman
Helanie:

“Nobody else knows,” Lamar whispered in my ear as soon as we entered the hall again. Rudy and Sage were busy chatting with their other friends, but when they saw me, they quickly rushed toward me.

“Where have you been?” Sage held my hand, giving me a quick once-over from head to toe before stepping back so Rudy could approach me.

“Are you okay?” he asked, his eyes scanning me.

I didn’t know how long my truth could stay hidden, but since the culprits would remain silent for the sake of their reputations, I would stay silent too—preparing a better plan this time.

“She was tied outside by the bad guys.”

Just when I thought Lucy would behave, she walked in and said it in the sassiest tone. “And we’re going to make sure the bad guys don’t come near her again, okay?”

I rolled my eyes at her.

“What? Who the fuck tied you outside?” Rudy’s muscles tensed, his eyes turning red with anger.

“It’s alright. The trainers have taken care of it,” I reassured them, but Sage and Rudy exchanged a look and shook their heads.

“No! We will not allow some outsider to come and hurt one of our own,” Sage announced louder than ever.

“Give us the name.”

Sage demanded it, and just as I saw Lucy open her mouth, I shot her a look. I didn’t think she would listen, but weirdly enough, she did.

“We’ll let you know. Right now, the trainers are handling it,” Lamar convinced them to let it go for now.

“Okay, but listen, everyone! From now on, we will keep an eye out for each other. You hear me?” Sage yelled, grabbing the attention of the others present.

Sydney rolled her eyes and kept filing her nails.

Rudy had been extremely upset ever since he found out I had been snatched from the hostel right under their noses.

Later, we all sat together for a huge meal for once.

“Argona was gone for two days and left me in charge of the CCTV. That’s why that asshole wanted me to delete the clips. I found out about them a day later, but I kept them in case you didn’t want to talk about it yet,” Lucy sat down beside me, a slice of pizza in her hand.

I could already tell Sydney wasn’t happy to see Lucy talking to me.

“Why did you help me?” I asked.

My friends had gone crazy, dancing and celebrating as if we had achieved something huge. It was just a small victory for now.

“Well, I’m not a bad person, Helanie. I’m just… different now,” she said, not using her usual high-pitched voice.

“Did you know about Jenny?” I asked.

“No! I’m not a hundred percent sure, but I have a feeling it’s her. But if it’s not her, then the entity is in someone’s body—someone very cunning, hiding it perfectly,” she sounded so creeped out whenever she talked about that entity.

What happened between her and the entity during her last encounter on the tenth floor? She never told us. She refused to tell us.

We all fell asleep after eating a lot. Emmet was staying at the academy for the night. It must have been around midnight when I heard murmurs around me. I have become a little more cautious of noises now.

As I sat up on the mattress, I noticed the top seniors peeking through the small hole in the window.

“What’s going on?” The moment I asked that question, the windows started shaking again.

“This,” Sage mentioned, talking about the snowstorm causing the windows to rattle.

“I think the Glimard have a different plan,” Rudy said, stepping away from the peephole.

I instantly took over and looked outside through the small opening. The sight outside was scarier than ever.

“Wake everyone up!” I heard Sage yell at Sumit.

I kept watching, my eyes locked on the massive thing right outside the window. If they broke the glass and the snowstorm got in, they would get in too. Then, the entire building started shaking. Of course, we never thought it would get this bad.

“Arghhh!” Sydney screamed from outside.

We didn’t even know she was on the second floor. She came rushing in, huffing and puffing.

“The windows are all broken on the second floor! That fucking Glimard is going to take off the roof and attack us all!” she screamed, causing others to gasp and scramble up.

“What do we do? We don’t even know how to kill them,” Salem complained.

“Of course we don’t, because instead of finding a solution to these monsters, the trainers were busy catering to their spoiled stepsister,” Sydney grunted, throwing a glare at me.

“Oh, shut the fuck up, Sydney.” I walked past her, grunting as I brushed my shoulder against hers before standing at the door to make an announcement.

“Guys, we have to fight back,” I stated firmly.

“And how do you suggest we do that? Or are you expecting us all to risk our lives just to save your ass?” she scoffed, making me hiss under my breath.

“We could also throw this one out to distract the Glimard,” Penn suggested, and others quickly nodded.

“Yes, please,” Lamar added, making Sydney look around at them one by one in shock.

“You’re not serious, right?” she asked.

“Actually, we are. We need to get to Professor Emmet, and for that, we need a distraction,” Rudy joined in.

However, I didn’t have time to joke. My mind was racing, and I could only come up with one solution.

“We need fire,” I said, watching them all frown in silence.

“Yeah, set Sydney on fire and then throw her at the Glimard,” Gavin agreed, while Salem looked down. Of course, Sydney was her sister. She didn’t defend her messy actions, but that didn’t mean she would let anyone hurt her.

“No! Get your crossbows, arrows, or whatever you want to attack with. We are killing these little snowmen tonight,” I hissed, determinedly walking away.

I heard all of them follow me to the basement where the weapons were.
