Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates

Helanie:

I’ve been so happy with my new strength that even while showering, I couldn’t help but sing and dance a little. There’s truth in the saying that once you get your wolf, you become the happiest.

Although she wasn’t fully awake enough to have a conversation with me, she was doing her best to show me her presence by giving me her strength.

I put on the black jeans and blue shirt, happily left my room, and locked it. Even though I didn’t really have anything to worry about, except for the new clothes I bought with my pay from working daily hours for Maximus, I still preferred locking my room.

Emmet should too.

I felt so guilty whenever I remembered sneaking into his room.

I left the mansion on foot and looked up from the road to glance back at the mansion. I saw Charlotte standing on the second floor terrace, glaring down at me.

With a wave of my hand, I teased her with a goodbye and then continued on my way.

I didn’t want to take a car or anything. I just wanted to enjoy my newfound strength. I’d waited so long for it.

Once I was nearing the woods and heading down the mountains, I saw Lamar standing with his bike, playing a game on his phone.

"Hey!" I cheerfully waved my hand, making him slide his phone into his pocket and raise an eyebrow, judging me.
