Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates Chapter 562-My Wife And Her Stupid Love Interest

Norman:

"Bravo! Way to break a woman’s heart," my wolf grunted, scolding again after being silent for just a minute.

"How is it my fault? I asked her if she was disappointed—I would’ve told her the truth too if she said otherwise. But she told it was her wolf. So why would I say sothing else? Wouldn’t I seem desperate? Besides, it’s the truth. You were the one who texted her," I hissed, feeling rage building inside .

"And you were angry that she sent you that text? Answer , seriously. Because what you did tonight pushed her so far away that I’m afraid she wouldn’t even want to see your face again."

I don’t know why my wolf was scaring . I’ve argued with Helanie before. We usually get back to normal soon.

"Ro, I was—" I shut up.

"You truly are a coward. You think falling for soone will make you look less like a loving brother?" he yelled. I closed my eyes, gripping the steering wheel tightly but not driving.

"Fine! Yes, I felt sothing when I saw that text. But you know why I was angry? Because she doesn’t feel the sa. She’s only teasing , trying to prank . And it makes look like a pervert for having my eyes on—my brother’s mate," I finally let it all out. It had been happening for so ti.

Back when she bit and I tattooed her mark on my shoulder, when she pushed and I tattooed her hand on my chest—it was all happening, and I had no clue why.

I wasn’t supposed to feel this way for anyone.

"Then why did you break her heart? So what if you confessed and she told you it was a prank. Isn’t she worth losing to?" The way Ro said it made my heart skip four beats at once.

"Tell , how much is she worth?" he asked again, and tears started filling my eyes for the first ti.

"You know what she ans to . It’s not every day that Norman learns to crochet just to fix soone’s sweater. But she scares ."

It felt strange to be honest with anyone about my feelings.

"That woman scares you? How?" Ro asked.

"I’m not supposed to fall in love, Ro. I can’t. It’s not physically possible for to get aroused by anyone. I’m just a robot—a vessel who carries the heartbeats of his brothers with mine. There’s no chance—no heartbeat for anyone else. Then how? How is it possible that my heart beats louder for her than it would out of concern for my brothers? How am I supposed to lay my head in her lap and sleep so peacefully?"

I started punching the dashboard as I lost my mind.

It was such a mystery, and I was getting desperate.

The more I watched her with my brothers, the more I felt like losing my mind.

"Then maybe—maybe she is our mate?" Ro’s gentle whisper shook awake from the tantrum I was throwing.

"I hope not," I wished.

"Norman, it’s only feasible. Think about it, she is mated to the others—"

I had to shut him down. If Helanie was the one, that would an—the prophecy is real.

"I’ll go speak with her. I don’t feel right ending the night with tears in her eyes. I should’ve just let her have a victory and laugh at ," I felt so low.

I have lived my life where nothing was mine. No happiness, no struggles. I did everything for my brothers. So when, for the first ti, I found soone for myself, I just didn’t know how to hold onto it.

That’s when a ssage popped up on my screen:

Jessica: Can you please co? I feel like this night won’t pass.

I had her in my mind—sympathy was what I felt for her. But then there was Helanie, and I couldn’t go ho or to Jessica knowing I had hurt Helanie so much.

I put my phone down and got out of the car, making my way toward the hostel.

"What are you going to say to her?" Ro asked.

"Apologize and—tell her—she is right. I was fucking horny for her. She can slap in return, hate , or call a pervert. I don’t care. I’d rather be embarrassed than upset her."

I reached the door and entered, making my way through the hallway when I saw her.

She wasn’t alone.

Like she said, she had Penn with her.

It was a sight that crumbled my heart like paper. I watched the two collapse on the ground, probably caught up in the mont, their lips eting.

I quickly turned around, not able to watch the crazy makeout.

"Norman, we should—" Ro started to talk again, but I grunted at him and ran out of the hostel like a headless chicken.

"I really thought— you know, when I said she would slap , I didn’t an it. In my head, I had a feeling—maybe, just maybe—she would blush and show so signs that she was interested. But all of that is gone. She was right. She has so many suitors. Why would she choose a faulty man with fucking four heartbeats?"

I let out a laugh at myself. My wolf really got fooled.

Thank goodness I didn’t do anything stupid. She was happily enjoying her life. If I had t up with her and said that stuff, I would’ve ruined her mood.

I sat in the car, my chest tightening and my mind going numb. The sight of her on top of Penn made shudder.

"Ugh! I’m going to lose my mind."

I grabbed my hair in my fists, staring at the dark road.

"How could she do that? She was just here with . How could she—betray—my brothers?"

I corrected myself, punching the window on my side so hard that my skin broke.

"You know what—the right thing would be to go check on Jessica. She’s the only one who accepts for who the fuck I am."

I started the engine to go console Jessica and be there for her.
