Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 834

Chapter 834: 834-The One Who Killed Her Mother

Helanie:

I began to climb a little higher. I knew Norman had stayed behind, and I couldn’t spot Maximus. As I moved through the trees, I noticed a large, open ground.

There were no trees there, or maybe they had been cut down. I couldn’t be certain, but as I was about to step onto the clearing, I saw someone else was already there.

"Charlotte!" I groaned, stepping onto the ground. Suddenly, it felt like something shot high into the sky, like a vibration running through the air.

I turned and noticed blue lines covering the entire area of the ground, almost like twirling laser beans. I could even feel the vibrations coming from them. It didn’t make any sense.

I know Darcy spoke about them, but who was controlling them? Had to be Darcy herself.

Charlotte and I exchanged a look. I could tell she didn’t understand it either.

Then my attention went back to Maximus, who was now snarling and howling louder than ever. I looked up at the sky and saw the clouds gathering.

Why was it that every time we faced a war, the clouds would gather and the weather would turn bad? It was as if, whenever we were in trouble, even nature conspired against us.

"What the heck are you doing here, Charlotte?" I screamed. Maximus started grunting and jumped toward her before she could even respond.

She swiftly turned to the side, and he landed on the ground. I could tell he wasn’t feeling well, probably because he hadn’t drunk any blood.

Usually, his brothers would feed him, mostly Emmet letting him drink. But this time, Maximus hadn’t had any blood, and I could tell he didn’t want to drink from anyone until both of us were in front of him. Now he was suddenly losing his mind.

"I am his mate, " she shouted, and I clenched my jaw.

"Really? Who did you have to kill to become his mate?" The minute I said that, I watched the color drain from her face. It felt so good to finally confront her for her actions.

I noticed her posture beginning to falter. The confidence she had first displayed was gone. Once I reminded her that the mate bond she felt with him wasn’t real, that they had forged it, she turned pale.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about," she almost whispered. The strong wind couldn’t make me listen to her, and I had to keep an eye on Maximus because he kept attacking us.

After striking her, he looked at me and ran toward me. I had to rush away and scream at him to stop, but he was only getting more anxious.

"What is she doing here?" Then I heard Norman. Finally, he had arrived. I guess he couldn’t stand back any longer. But the minute he stepped forward and tried to cross the blue lines, I watched him get thrown back. That’s when fear struck both Charlotte and me.

"Norman!" I screamed, rushing toward the lines but stopping short. I knew I couldn’t go further. They would drain my energy.

"I’m fine. Keep an eye on Maximus," Norman screamed, holding his left arm while trying to get up. I spun around just in time to dodge Maximus as he lunged to claw me.

"Maximus! What are you doing? I’m Helanie", I called him, but he was moving too fast. It was getting difficult.
