Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 790

Chapter 790: 790-The One Who Should Have Never Gotten Away

Helanie:

I could not believe my ears and what Kaye had just said. Still, he dragged me inside with him, holding my hand tightly to keep me steady. With the pregnancy, I was already going through so much, and now this news, along with the foul smell, made me want to throw up. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The moment we stepped back into the mansion, it was empty. We should have seen them in the living room or dining room, but they weren’t there.

"Has anybody seen them?" Kaye shouted.

A warrior rushed out of the dining room. "Your Highness, they took a car and left," he said, making Kaye clench his fist. I guessed that had been their last option.

It was so sad that for months we didn’t even know an innocent man had lost his life because of the greed of his own royal beta. That could only happen through deception.

"Helanie, you will stay here. I’ll go catch them, okay?" Kaye said, pressing his hand gently against my cheek.

"Your Highness, we will take care of her," the warrior added, the same one who helped us find the dead bodies of the previous Alpha and his family.

I didn’t insist on going with Kaye. I couldn’t sit in a chasing car with how anxious and nauseous I already felt. As soon as Kaye strode away, I sank onto the couch. The warrior sat near me. Other warriors and omegas appeared, one bringing me juice to calm me.

"Actually, we’ve been waiting for someone to come and save us," one of the omega maids said, her eyes heavy with emotion.

"How did it happen? Do all of you know?" I asked. They nodded.

"We were cut off from communication outside the pack," the woman explained. "Since it had happened before too, nobody suspected anything. The other packs just thought we were being secretive like the North always does."

"But how did it happen? How did a royal beta kill not only the Alpha, but his son and daughter too?" I asked the warrior.

"The Alpha and Beta were best friends," he said. "They drank together all the time. One night, when they were heavily drunk, Mr. Coombs attacked him."

I felt frozen.

"I didn’t know what to do," he continued. "By then, Beta Coombs was already controlling us. He was far stronger because he was a royal beta. Once he took over, other warriors didn’t want to oppose him because we had to stay silent to protect our families."

He paused. "Before all this, they had already taken one member from every family in the pack and imprisoned them."

My eyes were left wide open in shock.

"What about Sydney? Did she know?" I asked.

He scoffed and shook his head. "The idea came from her. It was before Salem died. She was the only sensible one. But back then, she spent most of her time with her boyfriend, so she wasn’t around."

"We saw a big change in her after she went to the academy," he said. "It was positive. We thought she would become the royal beta. But everything changed. She died. Then those two took over, not just the beta post, but the Alpha post too. It was a mess."
