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.
