Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates

Lamar:

"What a bitch! Did you guys just see that?" I heard Sydney’s comment and raised my head to see what was bothering her now.

I just knew something had offended her. Everyone nodded, but then I turned my head all the way to the back, where my frenemies sat.

I don’t even know what to call them. It just seems like I like hanging around those misfits because I’m one too.

Then I realized Lucy and Gavin looked confused—the seat beside them was empty. I wasn’t sure what had happened between Gavin and Lucy after my fight with Gavin. Had they rejected each other or not? I didn’t care.

But Helanie was gone.

"She must be dying to poop," someone commented, clearly trying to appease Sydney. I watched Lucy get up to check on Helanie, and Jenny started to follow, but her brother was quick to grab her wrist and force her back down without even looking at her.

I had a very bad feeling about it.

I managed to get out of my seat too, rushing towards the door and stepping outside.

"Lamar, you too?" Sydney complained, but I was already in the hallway when I spotted Professor Emmet standing there, his back turned as if he was looking at something. He must have seen Helanie. Where did she go?

I had a feeling that if Professor Emmet saw me going after Helanie, he would stop me. So I changed my route and hid behind the wall until he had re-entered the classroom. That’s when Lucy couldn’t leave the room anymore.
