Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 772

Chapter 772: 772-Darcy’s Past.

Helanie:

I watched Emmet make waffles for us and plate them separately, decorating each like a chef with edible flowers. Everything looked perfect.

We walked out with the waffles in our hands, and as soon as we sat down in the garden, Emmet started helping me with the food as if I couldn’t eat on my own. Ever since they found out I was pregnant, they’ve been treating me like a child who can’t take care of herself.

"So, are you going to talk to me about something?" I asked after taking a bite of waffle and closing my eyes to enjoy the taste. Emmet really knew how to cook, I had to give him that.

He wiped his hands with a napkin. Even when he didn’t need to, he used a fork and knife.

"So, remember when we were talking about my mom and how she said she thought she was cursed?" he said, making me nod along with him.

"Yes, I remember we talked about it. Did you find out what kind of curse it was?" I asked Emmet, watching him nod. He looked pretty confident in his findings, and since his brothers also let him stay with me, I could only guess they already knew what the curse was about.

"So basically, this curse comes from a punishment the Moon Goddess gives to mates or anyone who don’t listen to her," he explained, making me shake my head to show I didn’t understand. "She punishes whoever disobeys her."

"But where does the curse come from? What could your mother have done so wrong that she got cursed?" I asked.

"So, you remember Mate Fullmoon?" he asked, and I nodded.

"Do you know the history of it?" he continued. I shyly shook my head. History was part of our school years, but I usually went to training instead and skipped it. Even when I did take history, I didn’t have my wolf back then, so I couldn’t train. In the end, I barely remembered anything because I wasn’t left with the freedom to study anymore.

"It’s okay. Nobody really knows," he said. He had probably noticed how awkward and out of place I looked.

"Basically, the Mate Fullmoon is a special night that used to be very dear to the Moon Goddess. Her people were supposed to enjoy feasts, especially the mates. But then some rogues used it to their advantage. They lured in young women, raped them on that night, and when the women gave birth, they killed them and took their babies. So the Moon Goddess decided nobody would ever mate on this night again because of how tragic it had become. Long story short, my mother thought the rules didn’t apply to her."

"What were you saying about? Did you know about the Mate Fullmoon?" I questioned. Lord McQuoid nodded. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
