“But she didn’t tell me that, so how was I supposed to know?” I stepped back and stared at them with teary eyes. “Oh, come on!” Helel scoffed, “You are going to make this about you, aren’t you?” The way he looked at me made me feel ashamed of myself. Akin had turned around after getting his anger out on the vase to give her aid. Zane’s phone ringing in his pocket got. him distracted, and soon he didn’t even care what was going on around here. He attended the call and left the living room. Maddox was all caught up, rubbing her hands to warm her up. Why were they so busy trying to comfort that she-wolf who wasn’t even their mate? “Go back to your room, now!” Helel clenched his jaw when he noticed I was not moving a muscle. “But I didn’t do anything wrong,” I argued, not moving. She is almost 21 and older than me. She should have told me she could not move until she took medicine. It wasn’t like I scared her so much that she wanted to escape the room. “Why were you ordering her around anyway?” Helel yelled; his entire attention was on me. “I—,” Before I could answer him, he pointed his hand at the staircase and demanded that I leave. “And you aren’t ordering me now?” I stood stubbornly when I should have left.
“Don’t argue with her. Ever since she found out she is mates 63 Home Alone With My Hot Stepbrother 1288 Wouchera with us, she has been acting like she owes us,” Akin commented without passing me a glance. They looked tired and exhausted in front of me. It hurt me to hear them talk about me in that tone. I couldn’t stand there any longer and tolerate the taunts, so I stomped my foot, and as I was about to leave, I heard her whimper and wake up.
“Oh, thank goodness,” Maddox sighed in relief. Instead of leaving, I changed my mind and stayed to hear what she had to say to them. “Are you alright?” Akin asked her in a sweet tone. “Here! drink some water,” Helel requested, not using the same tone with her as he did with me. “I am fine,” she answered, sitting with difficulty and keeping her head down. “We are sorry on her behalf,” It was Helel who apologized. The more they showed concern for her, the more it hurt me. “For what? She didn’t do anything.” She raised her face and gave me a weak smile. The brothers followed her stare and looked my way. “She asked you to leave,” Akin reminded her, but she shook her head at him. “Very nicely! She was being very polite when she asked me if I could leave because she had to study there. It wasn’t something rude or harsh she did. I was feeling a bit suffocated, so I got on my feet to leave so that I could grab some fresh air. It was not about her. She didn’t do anything.” 63-Home Alone With My Hot Stepbrother 15 She stared at the brothers when defending me. It shocked me how she took my side and even lied to me. But it only made me realize how clever she is. “I will be in my room now,” I stated, giving her a blunt look before sprinting upstairs. “Such a clever bit*h!” I muttered, shaking my head in disbelief, “The brothers know I told her to leave, so her trying to be nice about it just means she is trying to prove herself a kindhearted bi*ch.” I grunted when slamming my door and sitting in bed. I stayed in my room for the next few minutes before I got a call from my mother. “The brothers will be taking her out for some tests. You will be left with Helel. Try not to leave your room,” Mom said from the other side of the call. That was the problem. They didn’t even tell me about their plans. I found out from my mother that Akin will stay with her in the hospital while the other brothers will be out
and about, clubbing and partying. “Okay,” I answered her, wondering why did she call to tell me that? “You are not afraid of sleeping alone anymore, right?” She asked, knowing very well that I was still scared about being by myself. “I am,” I uttered, thinking maybe she would ask one of the brothers to stay outside my bedroom or maybe let me sleep in the living room while they stayed beside me. 63 Home Alone With My Hot Stepbrother 288 vouchers “Take a sleeping pill-and go to bed. Helel is the only one staying in the mansion tonight. Don’t communicate with him. I don’t like him.” She sounded bitter when talking about him. It puzzled me because the last time she came around, I found her flirting hard with Helel to the point that she made him uncomfortable. “Okay, I won’t,” I lied. I was not going to take a sleeping pill. I didn’t want to stay asleep when Akin brought her home in the morning and she walked around like she owned the place. There was something wrong about her, and I intended to find it out soon before they all fell for her. Since I stayed mad at them, I sk*pped dinner, but now I wanted something to eat, so I left my room, wearing booty shorts and a white top, to grab a quick snack. I aimed to stay in the living room and probably turn on the TV to feel better. I knew Helel was the only one in the mansion, but after his attitude toward me, I didn’t want to bump into him or ask him for help. Well, that was not possible because when I walked into the kitchen, I found him there already. He cleared his throat, still showing a bit of a rough attitude about what happened earlier and how I became the reason his beloved Gwen passed out. There were some cookies resting on the island that caught my attention. It was a red velvet cookie, something that watered my mouth instantly. “Don’t, they are for Gwen!” Helel’s command ceased my proceeding hand.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
