Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 219

Chapter 219: 219-The Missing Evidence

Helanie:

Hearing Lamar caused silence for a minute before Penn tried lunging at Lamar.

I had to get in their way before they started fighting in my dorm room, and once again the attention would be back on our group.

"Stop this!" I yelled, getting in between them and extending my arms to push them both apart.

"We have been under the scrutiny of the trainers because of what’s been going on in our group. One more discourse and our entire group will be punished or might even get suspended," as I yelled, they went silent.

Jenny took slow strides to reach Lamar. Her eyes showed how much rage she had in them. She muttered, "You had no right to play me like this. I don’t believe you did anything because you wanted something serious with me or that you wanted me out of Rayden’s cage."

A big tear rolled down her face, but she sniffled it back to add, "But tell me, where is my stuff that you stole from me?"

"What did he steal from you? Is it--something branded?" Penn quickly questioned his sister, whose eyes were stuck on Lamar.

"Please, give me back that thing. It is the only thing that I have that can help me get freed," she uttered, tears streaming down her face at this point. She was no longer yelling or shouting at Lamar but requesting him.

I watched Lamar look away, not even showing concern or guilt for making her so vulnerable.

"I don’t have your thing," Lamar shrugged. Penn stared between the two before he grabbed Lamar by his collar to issue a warning.

"Whatever you stole from her, I want it back before midnight, or else--" Penn threatened, making it hard for me to separate them at this point.

"I told you, I don’t know what she is talking about. And what can you do anyway? Because we can settle this outside right now," I knew Lamar was not afraid of any alpha, but going outside after dark would be stupidity.

"Nobody is heading out for a month. The warden has made it clear," I mentioned the announcement from earlier that she made after Norman told me to inform her about the lunar eclipse month.

"You want to know what I can do?" Penn avoided me and kept shaking Lamar, who steadily lowered his gaze to stare at Penn’s hands on his collar before he grasped his hands to free himself.

"Ask her what went missing?" Lamar turned to Jenny, who gulped anxiously.

Since I knew Lamar had messed up, even I couldn’t defend my group. Her brother had every right to look after her, but him not wanting to realize she was not happy with Rayden was where he messed up.

"Let’s go," he dragged Jenny out of the room, passing me a last glance as he exited.

"You should go rest too, Gavin. And probably check those messages," I said to Gavin, giving him a disapproving look. With his head down and his eyes on the ground, he nodded and left the room.

"Oh shoot! There are no crab legs left. I’ll go get some mussels. Do you guys want something? They’re treating us very well tonight," Lucy jumped off the bed with the tray in her hands and a smile on her lips.

Of course, seafood is not cheap, but her behavior was so off. This was not normal, but before I could even muster some courage to remind her that acting like everything was fine was crazy, she had run out of the room.

Now that it was only Lamar and me left, I decided to confront him.

"You stole those hairs from Jenny. I’m not going to ask you why because I’m sure you won’t be honest with me. But return them to her. You said you were shocked why she isn’t telling Rayden that she cheated so he can reject her. Well, she wants to prove to the council that he cheated first so she can demand a rejection because, considering how messy and awful Rayden is, he still might not reject her," I yammered, hoping anything I said would help him realize he was just causing trouble for an innocent girl.

And just when I thought he would consider my request, he faced me and, in a very selfish and cold tone, replied, "Ah! I don’t have it. And if you’re done lecturing me, I’ll go rest now."
