Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates

Emmet:

’Take a deep breath, Emmet, and try to comfort Helanie. Or else she will feel guilty for not being able to help you,’ my wolf uttered amidst the storm within me.

I cleared my throat and turned to her, watching her squeeze into the other side of the seat and look out the window.

I had a bad feeling she was tearing up. I wished I had thought about my words before speaking them.

"Hey," I stretched my arm out and gently nudged her elbow to get her attention. She only shook her head, letting me know she wasn’t going to listen.

’She is so adorable. We will miss her the most,’ my wolf made me smile through the tears.

Everything about her had always been special. I guess I was thinking too far ahead.

Marrying her would have been just an easy way out.

Of course, the forces are way stronger than my will to change my future—our future.

"I was honestly just blabbering out of my mind. There’s no issue. We’re cool. Probably in the future, I’ll have a talk with my brothers and understand what is bothering them about me," I mumbled, and she slowly turned to me.

And just like I had suspected, her eyelashes were still wet from the tears she had shed.
