Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

Chapter 37-Her Worst Fears

“Mom?” I frowned, watching others grimace and get up from their seats.

Following my voice, mom sprinted towards the living room with Lord Vasquez behind her. I was in shock for a minute before I landed on my feet and rushed to hug her.

“My Beatrice!” Mom’s arms made me feel secure. I kept my arms tied around her for a moment before we parted, and she cupped my face to stare into my eyes.

“Oh! You have a fever,” she said, a frown appeared on her face when she cupped my face and realized how hot my skin was.

“Why is she sick?” She let go of me and turned around to look at the brothers, who looked upset at the sight of her.

Lord Vasquez was in the process of meeting his sons when mom called for their attention, and they all turned to her.

“She–,” Akin cleared his throat because his father was staring at him for answers.

“I was out in the rain,” I interrupted him and told my mom how I got sick. She took a quick glance at the brothers and then focused on me.

“Why?” as she asked, I saw the brothers sneakily looking around. Maddox lowered his face like a culprit while the others were scratching their necks and chins and focusing on the surroundings. I bet they were worried I was going to expose what Maddox did to me.

“I wanted to enjoy the rain,” I lied, and finally, they all looked like they had found peace.

“Oh! But why would you do that? Don’t you know you are sensitive and catch cold quickly?” Mom held my hand tightly to rub it between her palms while smiling sweetly at me.

“Your mother was so restless that she made me pack our bags and leave the moment she heard about the natural disasters,”

Lord Vasquez laughed at my mom for making them leave over a storm.

“I couldn’t stop thinking about her. And now I know why, because she was sick,” mom gently caressed my cheeks and then held my hand to take me upstairs with her.

“I will spend some time with my daughter,” she said from the stairs while making me walk behind her.

We marched into the room, and before we could catch up, she paused to stare at the curtains lying on the floor.

“What was going on here? Who brought these curtains?” The look on her face was terrifying.

“Oh! The brothers did. They were so nice, fixing the curtains. when I woke up,” I smiled as I jumped into the bed like a free girl. I didn’t have to be afraid of anything now that I had my mother with me. The brothers were obviously afraid of losing the crown.

“They were in your room when you were sleeping?” Mom didn’t smile back at me. In fact, she looked somewhat hysterical, as if her biggest fears had come to life.
