Sharing Beatrice A Luna to her Stepbrothers

Chapter 128

128-Vortex!

“This is so pretty,” Dream yelled, jumping up and down af- ter we finished hiking to the top of the mountain next to the volcano.

The volcano was pretty symbolic; it was also radiating weird energy. The volcano in particular was called a Vortex; filled with energy.

Ever since we had traveled to the west and reached the mountains, I had been feeling super alive.

I can’t recall when I have felt so good about myself before. It was certainly the volcano and the change of scenery.

Helel and Zane were setting up the tents near the moun- tains on the ground while we were hiking down again.

We girls were wearing tops and shorts with hats and big boots. We didn’t match. It was coincidental. In fact, Dream and Gwen haven’t said a word to me this entire time.

“It’s beautiful up there,” Gwen said, approaching Akin, who was fixing his tent.

I heard they were not sleeping in the same tent. It was weird how one day they were expressing feelings and getting intimate cut to weeks later. They haven’t even expressed fondness in that way again.

I walked over to Helel, who was setting up a tent too, and I stood beside him, my eyes stuck on Gwen, who was laughing and giggling with Akin.

“There are four tents,” Maddox announced after every- thing was set in place.

I instantly started doing the math in my head. No way was I going to share a tent with either Gwen or Dream. Both hated me to their cores.

“Maddox and I are staying in that purple one,” Dream pointed at a blue tent with a huge smile on her lips. Every- body stared at her for a moment before they decided to ig- nore her and focus on the others.

“We brothers can share a tent,” Zane suggested, but that only made things more complicated because three of them cannot fit into the tent.

“That’s why I told you guys to get those new big and up- dated ones,” Maddox complained when he was the one who didn’t even have to share the tent with too many people.

One could tell he didn’t want to be alone with Dream.

“I think we can decide later after we have finished setting up the fire. I can tell we are all pretty hungry. Let’s start cook- ing first and leave the other matters for later.” Helel smartly dismissed the subject, as none of us wanted Gwen to be alone in the tent with Akin.

Soon everybody scattered around while Gwen was stick- ing to Akin.

They needed some wood for later, so I took it upon myself and walked into the deep mountains to get some fresh air. Now that we were this close to exposing Gwen, I was feeling hesitant.

I don’t know what it was, but I was not as confident as I was prior to coming here.

“They told me you were collecting wood.” Akin’s voice startled me into stepping back and almost tripping when he rushed and held me up. His firm hand grabbed onto my back while his muscular chest with an open shirt was a sight to see. I never really noticed the tattoo on his body. I still couldn’t see it very clearly because he held me so close that I could only stare at his face from here.

“I didn’t mean to startle you,” Akin said, his beautiful red lips moving elegantly when he talked. I was so immersed in watching him that I forgot I was not supposed to show any in- terest in any of them.

He gently nudged my body to wake me up, and when I did, I awkwardly pulled away from him. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“Are you alright?” he asked, making me look at him again, but this time I was in my full senses.

“I’m fine. Why would you ask?” I asked, peering at him with exposed eyes.

“It’s just that you changed drastically,” He uttered, step- ping a little back but then placing his foot on the big rock be- side me and hunching over as his elbow rested on his thigh.

“I didn’t mean to be annoying. I was just someone who had not known anyone besides her mother. So when I found you all, I got desperate for attention,” I admitted to being overly sensitive and demanding attention to the point that I have exhausted them.

“And you don’t want any attention anymore?” he ques- tioned playfully, but I get what he meant.

“No!” I answered with much difficulty. They were my mates someone I could not reject but with whom I could keep my emotions to myself. If they can resist falling for me, I can too.

“Ah! I didn’t bring the axe!” I slapped my forehead when I stared at the piece of wood. “I’ll go bring it really quickly,” I ex- cused, sprinting out of the mountains to reach Helel’s car.

I opened the trunk, and the sight of the iron chains made me nauseous.

“Don’t worry! We will not lose.” I didn’t know Helel had seen me walk up to the car.

“We will be able to chain Gwen by morning,” Helel promised as he came into the view to look for the axe for me.

“I am scared for Akin. He doesn’t deserve that heart- break,” I whispered as I kept staring at the chains.

“Nobody does,” Helel interrupted me. “Anyone who val- ues someone more than anyone in the world doesn’t deserve to be looked at weirdly. Just because they were foolish enough to not realize it sooner doesn’t mean the intentions were wrong.” He sounded offended when I spoke about how unfair it is for Akin to be put in that situation.

I don’t know who Helel was talking about, but it seemed personal.

“I just know I want to chain Gwen and end her.” I diverted the subject because I didn’t want to talk about us, as that seems to be what Helel was talking about.

“Chain Gwen? Are these chains for her?” The voice from behind us scared us into turning around and staring at the person in shock and terror.

Akin looked not only angry but also betrayed by us.

“Aki—,” Helel tried to approach him, but Akin stopped. him by gently pushing his hand forward.

“You said you don’t want the attention. So tell me, why do you think hurting Gwen would make us notice you?” Akin raised his voice at me, and that’s when he hurt me deeply.

He thought I was capable of hurting someone out of jeal-ousy.

“That’s it, I’m taking Gwen out of here,” Akin announced as he ruined our plan.
