Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee novel Chapter 130

130-Broke Me Ternbly

“She is trying to make me look bad. She just wants to prove you brothers listen to her.” Gwen stepped back, her eyes glaring into my soul while talking to Akin.

“I’m sure she is not doing that. We live with her, we know. There is a misunderstanding and once it’s resolved, she will not bother you again,” Akin defended me for the first time in front of her. The look Gwen was giving us was an indication that she never thought Akin would go against her.

“You too?” Gwen asked him, tears filling her eyes as she questioned him.

“I’m just saying a logical thing. Take it off and give it to her. If that’s too much, then give it to me,” Akin argued, prob- ably finally realizing there was something up with her, or else why wasn’t she taking it off?

“NO! I am not going to listen to anyone anymore. If keep- ing me in your mansion comes with the price of losing my dig- nity, then I will leave,” Gwen yelled, breathing profusely. Her eyes were constantly wandering around and falling upon ev- ery one of us for a few seconds before returning to Akin’s face.

“Take it off, and then off you go.” I took a step forward to let her know she couldn’t leave until she proved her inno-cence.

“YOU STAY OUT OF IT!” Gwen yelled at me, even taking a few steps in my direction to threaten me.

Zane rushed between us, and Gwen’s expression changed. The pain of betrayal and hurt was visible on her face. She never thought in a million years that the brothers would take my side. The instant Akin too joined Zane, a tear rolled down Gwen’s cheeks. She was watching them protect me and it wasn’t going well with her.

“I didn’t know you brought me here to humiliate me,” Gwen uttered, sobbing in silence but shaking her head at Akin as she disapproved of his actions.

“Gwen! All you have to do is take the damn pendant off. You would have taken it off already if you were not hiding anything.” Akin was still nice enough to speak to her in a mild tone, but she was losing her mind and shaking visibly. That much aggression just to take off her pendant was a sign in and of itself.

Gwen waved her hand at Akin and decided to walk away. I knew if I let her walk away now, she would go into hiding and then attack us when we were least expecting it. So I did what I had to do. I chose violence.

“You are not going anywhere,” I muttered and ran out from behind Zane’s back. She was so shocked that for a mo- ment, she didn’t even know if she should push me or save the pedant. I took advantage of her hesitation and aimed for the pendant.

As soon as I leaped in her direction and snatched the pen- dant off her neck, everybody went silent.

Her eyes grew wide as she watched the pendant being ripped off of her neck. Zane grasped my arm and retreated me behind his back for safety. We knew she would transition at any point, so Zane was not letting me walk out from behind his back.

The silence turned into an awkward moment, where Akin and Zane shared a glance and then looked at me.
