Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 840

Chapter 840: 840-Kidnapping My Daughter

Helanie:

"What do you mean, Jessica?" I asked, confused as I stared at her face. Her expression changed so quickly it was almost scary.

"I’m just saying, why is it that everybody else is worried for the well-being of these brothers but you?" she said, giving me a look that showed she was genuinely confused.

"You think I’m not worried about them?" I asked. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Kesha was sacrificed for Kaye. Charlotte was sacrificed for Maximus. How are you concerned for them when others are the only ones ending up dead?" she asked, making me scoff a little.

"Jessica, I was the one held captive by both of them. One tried to kill me, the other stabbed me. I even took a stab for Maximus," I almost hissed, already annoyed that I had to explain myself.

"Well, but you survived in the end, so I don’t understand," she shrugged.

I just stared at her, jaw hanging low. I honestly didn’t expect her to throw accusations like this at me.

"And even now, Norman is in pain, and you’re sitting here waiting for someone to find a mistake in me so they can kill me?" she asked. And honestly, that part wasn’t a lie. I could tell the brothers were watching for Jessica to mess up. And the way she was talking, I was scared for her. She was already messing up.

"Well..." I stuttered, then shut down.

"Of course you have no response. I killed my brother for you. Others have always sacrificed someone for you. Why are you such a sacred thing, Helanie? I understand that he wanted you, but then you just took everyone’s mate." She was shaking as she spoke, and I could tell it was because she was afraid of being killed.

"Listen, Jessica, I’m not going to let anyone kill you. We will find a loophole. Please don’t worry. We are actually looking for the seer who could help us. If you know anything about her, let us know. We’ll find the loophole." I held her hand instantly, trying to comfort her. I didn’t want to jump to conclusions or accuse her when it wasn’t her fault to worry about herself.

"You mean the grey woman?" she asked, and goosebumps ran down my body.

"Yes, do you know anything about her? You’ve been close to Lady Darcy all these years. Has she ever mentioned that woman?" I asked, genuinely wanting to know so we could all be helped.

She zoned out for a moment.

"I don’t know. I always just heard her name, but Darcy never gave any explanation or introduction," she replied. And just like that, we were back to zero.

"Anyway, please, Jessica, don’t think we’re planning to kill you. I won’t let it happen. I won’t let any innocent person die because of me or my mates. So don’t worry."

She finally nodded, but I could still see her shaking.

"I’ll go to my room. When Norman comes, I want to see him. I want to meet him," she said, not asking, but demanding. The look she gave me made it seem like she thought the only reason she wasn’t seen as his mate was because of me.

And she wasn’t wrong. But even before I came into her life, Norman hadn’t wanted her. It was unfair for her to put all the blame on me. Still, since she was in such a fragile state, and no one, neither her father nor her pack, was asking for her, I understood her pain.
