Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 782

Chapter 782: 782-A Journey To My Pack

Helanie:

It was a heartfelt goodbye. I spent at least half an hour with all the mates before leaving with Norman, otherwise they would have been too anxious. Kaye and Maximus made me promise to keep my health a priority. Emmet told me to call him every single day. It all meant a lot to me.

And then there was Jessica. She was actually being very nice. Charlotte, I knew, was fake, so she was just waiting for me to leave.

The journey was tiring. Since I was pregnant, I felt extremely weak. I guess they were right when they said I was carrying everyone’s child, because I could feel my body being drained of energy. And they were also right when they said I needed to eat more. Norman made sure I ate the food we had packed.

Finally, we reached the Vicious Bane pack. I don’t know, even after I got my revenge, even after the pack members apologized and I forgave them, it never felt like I could have peace whenever I returned here. But I didn’t say it out loud. I didn’t want to worry Norman, who was already so worried about me.

"Welcome home," Dalton said with a huge smile on his lips, his royal beta smiling along as they welcomed me and Norman with a bouquet of flowers.

"Thank you," I said, accepting the bouquet, which Norman instantly took out of my hand. I guess he thought even if I breathed too loud, I would get sick.

"The pack members have been preparing for your arrival ever since they found out you were coming," Dalton said, hands tied behind his back, dressed in a white suit.

But Norman stood tall. I couldn’t help noticing him in a grey suit, looking around. I saw the pack members come out of their homes, gathering at the entrance of the border just to welcome me. Some even ran alongside our car, throwing rose petals. It’s odd how people change once you’re in power.

Then there were the girls, the young ones who had just turned eighteen, and even some older ones, eyeing Norman. I guess it was because he was tall, attractive, and carried a strong aura.

"That’s just them being kind," I said, smiling at the pack members.

"So I heard you wanted to stay at your home, although Rocky and I prepared a guest room for you in a luxurious hotel suite. It would be much better if you stayed there in this condition," Dalton said, pointing at my belly. I placed a hand on my stomach and smiled.

"Congratulations, by the way. You deserve all the happiness in the world," Dalton added, though I noticed a slight crack in his voice. We had a history, but I didn’t take it seriously anymore.

"Thank you. But for now, I want to go back home," I said, watching him give me a secret look.
