Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 779

Chapter 779: 779-Our Kingdom

Helanie:

I had walked back to my room—Norman’s room—and sat down to rest a bit when I received a call from an unknown number. I scrunched my eyebrows before picking up, and just hearing the voice on the other side already brightened my mood.

"Helanie, how are you?" My mother sounded so cheerful, so full of glee, I knew she was fine. She had told me once that once she went to Arthendel and managed everything, she would call me.

"I’m fine. Oh my god, I can’t believe I’m speaking to you again," I said, happily excited.

"I know I have missed you so much, my daughter. You were the only one on my mind, and it had been so hard for me to focus on anything, so I decided, you know what, screw waiting for everything to get normal. I just want to speak to my daughter," she said happily, making me smile on the phone and holding it tightly.

"I have missed you too, mother. So much has happened since I returned," I said in a soft tone.

"Are you okay? Did anyone try to hurt you?" My mother asked, anxiety audible in her voice.

"No, Mom, everything was fine," I said. "They welcomed me with so much love. All the council members, everyone, really. They told me mermaids are not hated and that they would respect us and make us feel at home."

"It sounds like a complete surprise," my mom said, a little relieved.

"It really was," I replied, recalling the events. "And I was happy to see Vonstan redeem himself by making the right decisions. He even made better rules for the she-wolves. The rules and regulations that once bound them are now giving them freedom, and I love that. I’m also glad I was able to bring some change for the better."

"I’m so happy," my mom commented.

"I got a message from Vonstan," she continued. "He apologized for making me feel like I couldn’t reveal my true identity and said he wants to shake hands with us for future projects."

"Did he by any chance try to find out what Darcy did to you?" she asked anxiously.

"I was curious about that too," I admitted. "I wanted to know how everyone would react if she was seen as a criminal, since this time the crime was against a mermaid and not a werewolf. I didn’t say anything yet because I wanted to get a heads-up from you first."

"It’s alright," she reassured me. "You did the right thing."

"We’re slowly uncovering a lot of truth. My mates are really supportive," I mumbled, biting my bottom lip as I prepared her for more news.

"Helanie, what is it? Are you hiding something from me?" she asked, and just as I expected, she immediately knew there was something I wasn’t telling her.

"Mom," I said, pausing to steady my breath, "there’s good news."

There was a sharp gasp from the other side as if she already knew what I was going to tell her.

"Yes, Mom, I’m pregnant," I said, my voice shaking slightly. "And this time, I’m pretty sure it’s from all the mates."

My mom went silent.
