Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee novel Chapter 124

124-Chain The Weredragon

I had to let Helel walk with me to meet Colt, who had been sitting at the end with his head turned to look outside the window.

I marched over and sat down with him while Helel took a minute to greet the owner and meet with everyone who was greeting and bowing to him.

“Such a crazy life these Alpha King have,” Colt said, ex- pressing his interest in the respect of being thrown at Helel.

“Right!” I didn’t want to say anything else.

“You look great. Did you get ready for him?” Colt sudden- ly brought up my attire, making me bite my lip awkwardly.

“What? No!” I sounded offended, as I scoffed and straightened my posture. It was then that I cocked my face to the side and noticed that Helel had heard us.

“I wouldn’t waste a minute doing anything special for him,” I said loudly so that Helel could hear that too. He joined us in the next second and stubbornly grabbed the menu, al- most showing aggression.

“You ran away the other day! May I ask why?” Helel then asked Colt, roughly looking through the menu.

“I told you he didn’t run away. He met me in the morning and bid goodbye,” I interrupted him and turned to him.

“We have cameras in the mansion, Beatrice!” Helel shut me up when she explained how stupid I was sounding for ly- ing so shamelessly.

“And don’t worry, I took care of the footage. But I want to know why he sneaked out like a thief.” Thankfully, Helel added to the conversation because I was kind of embarrassed about getting caught.

“As a rogue, he feels insecure,” I said, stubbornly raising my chin.

“I think he can answer for himself,” Helel remarked, mak- ing me frown while he too narrowed his eyes in my face.

We were staring at each other like we were ready to fight when Colt decided to come between us.

“Okay!” Colt mumbled, steadily slamming his hands on the table to turn to him.

“You said you had something to show me?” he asked, re- minding me of the picture.

“Oh yes! I found this in a history book. I tried searching for the weapon, but nothing popped up.” I pulled the page out of my bag and handed it over to him.

“Hm!” while inspecting the picture, I noticed Colt was holding back. He would casually shift in his chair and then steal a glance at Helel.

“Why exactly do you think he would know about this?” Helel asked, as expected. I believe that’s why Colt hadn’t said a word.

“He likes reading about history and extinct creatures,” I answered on Colt’s behalf once again, and that irked Helel into ignoring me and turning to call for a server.

“So! What’s the progress?” Helel then focused on Colt, who was excitedly waiting for his food to arrive.

“I don’t know what this is,” Colt shrugged. “I have no idea!” He continued to pout and lie.

I stared at Helel and then at Colt. It looked like they were couples who had cheated on each other. Helel was going to consume him alive. This is how bad Colt was at lying.

“Colt! It’s fine. You can say it in front of him,” I said, and Colt grunted at me.

“The weapon we want has gone missing years ago,” Colt said, and our hopes seemed to have drowned.

“I say I go, rip her head off,” Helel slammed his fist on the table and turned to us angrily for wasting his time. Colt and I shifted to the edge in fear, sharing frightened gazes.

“We can chain her, capture her, and hold her till we find the weapon,” Colt snickered hysterically, watching Helel’ s veins pop out even more.

“Iron chains!” Helel finally calmed down after he recalled what could be used to chain Gwen.

“See! You calm down, and you remember things.” Colt smiled like an idiot, grabbing the food as soon as Maura put it down for us.

“Let’s go,” Helel grabbed my hand after he was done ex- tracting information from Colt to leave.

“Did you not like the serv—,” Maura tried calling for him, but he was too occupied by the thought of his pack and ev- erything being in danger to focus on anything.
