56-They Brought A New Shewall Home “So, you are guilty of being mated to me?” I asked sadly. My confidence went down after watching him look so disturbed when talking about somebody finding out about us. “Isn’t it obvious? You are mates with the three of us. And then you are also — if things go that way, you will be our stepsister too. How awkward would it be then?” He turned straight this time. He wasn’t even yelling at me, and neither was I raising my voice at him. “I guess you are right. Can you drop me home now?” I requested while pulling the seatbelt on again. “Let’s get rid of the blood first. Your mother will eat our heads if she finds you in this state.” As he reached for the aid box in the glove compartment and told me why he wanted to help clean my wounds, I felt another streak of pain run through my heart. “It is fine. I will tell her I had a fight with someone and you supported me.” I said, and he stopped, putting the aid box back because he understood I didn’t want to stay in his car for another minute. “OK,” that was all I heard from him before he dropped me off at home. He didn’t come inside. In fact, I believed he left to attend the party once again. I was deeply hurt and exhausted. All I wanted was to get some rest, but first, I had to face my mother. The instant I stepped into the living room to meet my mother, I found a rather shocking sight. The two brothers had come back home. Helel and Akin were standing with their father, while my mother was standing at the entrance of the living room. The subject of their attention was a girl sitting on a couch before them. 56-They Brought A New She woll Home 11 298 Mouchers
“She is the girl you rescued?” Lord Vasquez asked Helel, who nodded his head to answer his father. “I am Gwen Moore!” she whispered her name, hugging her body timidly and not raising her eyes. Her presence made me feel a bit cold. It was like a mist of icy air was surrounding her. Either that or I was just jealous at the sight of her. Her light green hair was short and rough around the
edges. Her pale skin was patchy for whatever reason. She seemed to have some bandages on her arms and around her neck. One could tell she might have just been discharged from the hospital. “She is going to stay here?” My mother also inquired as to what I had been thinking. “Yes! I think it is better we keep her here and help her remember more about herself,” Akin answered as if he didn’t want anyone to answer that question. “I think it is a good idea. She can make friends with Beatrice.” As Lord Vasquez found me standing behind my mother, he said my name, and everybody looked my way. Gwen raised her head to cast a quick glance at me before my mother could even comment on my bruised face. She had emerald green, long, and deep eyes. I felt shivers run down my spine at the few seconds of eye contact between us. “What happened to your face? Did anybody hurt you?” My mother forgot about the other girl because her dear daughter looked like a mess. She cupped my face in her hands and kept observing my face. 56-They Brought A New Shewall Home. “I got into a tussle with someone,” I said, shaking my head to free myself from her grip. I was still not sure how to respond to the whole night, which turned into a big question for me. From Zane befuddling my mind to the brothers bringing in the hot, lost girl, everything seemed to go against me. “Where was Zane all that time?” My mother’s tone was harsh when talking about him. “He was there! He sorted out the fight,” I lied. He didn’t do that. He hugged his beloved so-called friend and walked her away from me. In fact, how can I forget the look he gave me in front of everyone? “But you are not the type to get into physical altercations,” my mother pouted sadly. “Her wolf has been caged behind medicines. The frustration will only grow with time.” Helel’s comment made me look his way. His eyes were sticking to my face in bewilderment. “I think we shouldn’t bother her too much and clean her injuries first,” Akin said as he mentioned me for the first time since our argument the other day. “I am fine,” I excused them all, probably confusing them with my reaction. I didn’t wait around and sped upstairs to wash my face and change into something more comfortable. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
When I got to the bathroom, I started crying. “Why did she come here?” I muttered to myself, walking back and forth in the bathroom. “She was sitting there like a little queen. The brothers looked 56-They Brought A New She-wolf Home. 1 so concerned for her.” I felt rage run through my body at the memory of her. “She better not try to seduce them into falling for her,” I muttered, standing before the mirror and gripping the sink angrily. It was crazy that I was able to have a full-on conversation with myself. I was looking into my eyes and silently thinking about the ways I could get the attention of the brothers. “I must not act st*pidly. I shall not drift away,” I whispered, deepening the eye contact with my reflection in the mirror. In all this mess, I forgot to take the bl*ody medicines. But my wolf didn’t bother to show herself. She stayed hidden for whatever reason, and I too didn’t think too much about it. After a few minutes of sulking and muttering in the bathroom, I answered the door to my mother, who bandaged me up well. “I wish I could take you with me tomorrow. But the only reason I am comfortable is because of the arrival of this new girl. I am sure the brothers will be distracted by her, and you will get to live here peacefully.” My mother whispered while lying in bed with me. She was thinking completely the opposite of what I wanted.
