Chapter 24: in between three brothers
Damon
I was beyond furious. My father’s announcement kept echoing through my head even as the entire crowd clapped and roared with happiness over the news.
Get married and mate with Adele? I’d never do such a thing! I couldn’t even imagine myself doing such, that’s how much I hated that thought.
As my father was stepping off the stage, our three betrotheds were running towards us to embrace us like we were a happy couple. As Anna pressed herself tightly against my side and hugged my arm to her chest, I had to silently count to ten in my head to rein in my temper, while reminding myself that I had to be nice to her and tolerate her in public. All our betrotheds are aware of this, and that’s why once in public, they tend to do a lot of stuff they can try with us behind closed doors.
Having had enough, I shrugged Adele’s grip off, scoffing at the sight of a pout on her lips as she blinked up at me.
"Damon, we’d be getting married soon! Soon, as in, in a few weeks! Aren’t you excited? Cause I am!" She yelled excitedly.
"We’ll become a happy family, along with our child. I’ll mind into your bedroom, and we’d fall in love, then..,"
"Enough, Adele. None of that would happen so stop being so delusional." I bit out sharply and she flinched a little.
Her eyes welled up with tears, but I knew better than to fall for those.
" you’re always hurting me with your words, Damon. What did I do for you to hate me so much?" She sniffed as she stared up at me.
I stared at her for a few moments before scoffing and turning away. Not wanting to be in her presence any longer, I moved through the crowd till I stepped outside the hall. I went to the side of it, choosing to stay in the garden right there.
