CHAPTER 295

Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee Book 2

Chapter 295 – Lost And Found

“What is happening here?” Sofia asked Maddox once again, who was busy unfolding a blanket over

Reign.

“Something happened to her,” Maddox said, stepping aside so that Akin could check her pulse and

everything.

“You two were together last night?” Sofia asked, focusing on that instead of poor Reign suffering on the

couch. She wasn’t passed out, but she wasn’t awake either. She would squirm and twist around the

couch, curling into a ball, and groan in pain.

“Is there something going on between you two? Are you two planning to date?” Sofia kept bombarding

Maddox with all these questions while he was too busy worrying about Reign. I couldn’t understand

what was happening to her, but she seemed to be in pain.

“Were you two together?” she asked again, and this time, Maddox sighed and turned to look at her.

“Yes, we were. Now would you please ask the maid to get her something to eat,” as he tiredly told his

mother to take care of Reign, his eyes traveled behind her and finally spotted me? His face changed

color, and a gulp ran down his throat.

“Beatrice!” he whispered, and soon his eyes scanned me, seeing Akin’s coat on me.

“How are y—” Maddox stopped talking when Akin got up from beside Reign and stole his attention.

“She will be fine. But let me know when she wakes up; I need to speak to her,” Akin said to Maddox,

looking like there was something that worried him.

Maddox didn’t ask too many questions but gave him a nod. I understood he wouldn’t pester his brother

in front of their mother, who would be waiting for gossip.

“Let’s lie her down in Beatrice’s room if she doesn’t mind,” Akin looked my way after suggesting that.

“Of course, I don’t mind,” I smiled, rea*s*suring him that I would be happy to have someone to speak

to. I could tell Sofia didn’t look too happy to see Reign being settled in the room with me.

I was still in the coat when Maddox brought Reign into the room and laid her down.

“I will get some medicines for her,” Akin said, “Beatrice! I will ask the maid to prepare breakfast for you.

You don’t have to leave the room and get into an argument with my parents. Just stay here and you will

be served, okay?” I appreciated his efforts to respect me. I wasn’t comfortable enough with his parents

to sit and eat with them.

While Akin left the room, Maddox stepped ahead to follow him, but instead, he slowed down right when

he was walking past me.

“Change into something decent,” he clenched his jaw, “you don’t have to tell everyone you were with

Akin last night,” he thought of me wearing Akin’s coat to be me sleeping with him.

I didn’t correct him because he just admitted to being with Reign. We were not even together anymore, content.

so his showing anger made no sense.

As he continued to walk out of the room, he stopped and stepped back when Akin dashed inside again.

He looked agitated and anxious, making both Maddox and I worry about what it was about.

“What happened?” Maddox asked.

“I just received a call from the hospital,” Akin said in his deep voice. His parents rushed behind him, so

I am a*s*suming they too heard the news.

But what news?

“Is Flynn okay?” Vasquez was the only one who seemed to be worried about Flynn.

“It is not about him,” Akin declared, turning to face his father, “Lady Varisha—her dead body was found

behind the hospital,” the news covered my body in chills. I gasped and held my hands in my mouth

while Vasquez seemed like he had been struck with lightning.

Everybody looked shocked. Maddox and Akin nodded at each other and left the room to comfort their

father before the three left for the hospital. I stayed in the room and sat down beside Reign, watching

her whimper nonstop.

“What is going on? Why is everything falling apart?” I felt miserable at the moment. There was not a

single day when nobody died or no tragedy occurred.

‘Why are you so worried? It is not like anybody dying was closer to us. Markus was an a*s*shole, and

so was his psychotic mother. Varisha was a mean and selfish woman who didn’t care what her son was

up to. So, you should be happy and take it as a blessing that whoever messes with you dies from

karma,’ Ace cared less. I could hear in her voice that she wasn’t bothered at all.

‘Then what do you have to say about us losing a golden scale? Is that not our karma for maybe

something we did wrong?’ in order to make a point, I had to bring up that heart wrenching incident.

‘Pfft! That’s not how it works,’ she argued with much sa*s*s, ‘we didn’t lose our dragon form, you silly,’

she let out a laugh, but I frowned instead of celebrating. ‘What? then why didn’t you tell me that when I

was mourning?’ I was upset with her for keeping things from me.

‘It felt good watching you cry for your dragon once instead of crying for others. It helped me realize you

do love us,’ she teased me, copying a British accent.

‘Then what about our scale? Was it just a scale?’ I asked with much interest. Now that I knew I wouldn’t

lose my dragon form, I could talk about the scales without feeling the pain of losing something dear.

‘Beatrice! That scale is a powerful antidote,’ her voice turned powerful, ‘to death. You give it to a dead

person, and he wakes up,’ there was a hint of confidence in her voice that made me excited.

‘What?’ I got up from the bed after hearing how important that scale is. And that the drawing that

Markus said was a joke turned out to be true. He only lied because he realized he didn’t want to help

me, but now that I had a golden scale, all I needed was to find his body.

Helel’s body!
