Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee Book 2
Chapter 428-He Is An A*sshole (Helel Spade)
“Gwen, what is this?” I grabbed the phone out of Zane’s hands and shoved it in her face, making her stare at the
screen and tell me what I was seeing.
“I don’t know,” she began to step away from me, her eyes reading the texts and noticing other details of the text.
“I don’t want to be that person, but I think we should just finish this argument. She wants care and shelter; she
deserves one,” Reign tried to interrupt us, but a hard gaze from Maddox made her change her statement. “I mean,
I am against the idea of an evil portrayal of Zane and everything that has been going on.”
“Gwen! Answer me,” I demanded, glaring angrily her way.
“I didn’t send it,” she finally answered and shook her head very calmly. “I don’t even have my cellphone.”
Everybody shared a confusing glance after her claims were brought to life. I do remember that she was without her
cellphone when she arrived here.
“I left my phone back at the mansion accidentally. So, this is definitely not me texting Zane,” there it goes, another
issue. “What?” I asked in confusion. “Colt, give her number a call.”
I wasn’t going to let this matter slide this time. This has been ongoing for some time, and as much as I wanted to
stay away from everyone and all these issues to cope alone, I wasn’t given a chance. Hence, I must end this battle

Colt nodded and started dialing her number.
It rang.
I looked her way and noticed how she looked confused for a minute before she turned to Maddox with her quizzical
stares. “Why do you have my cellphone?” Her question baffled Maddox into stepping away and looking through his
phone.
“I–,” Maddox gulped as he pulled out her phone from his pocket, and a horrid look took over his face. He seemed to
have been stuck with terror.
The way he was staring at everyone’s faces while gulping made him look guilty.
“Maddox! Why do you have her cellphone?” I asked him, but much more nicely. There was no way Maddox would
do something like that.
“I don’t kno–w,” he stuttered.
“See, I didn’t send those messages. These brothers are busy portraying me wrong,” Gwen was now yelling at the
top of her lungs. “They act like they care and didn’t want me to leave, but behind our backs, they are planning all
sorts of nasties.”
“Gwen! Go back to the room,” I yelled after I realized it was going downhill pretty quickly. Maddox hadn’t spoken a
word. He looked like he was in a state of shock and wouldn’t be able to come out of it anytime soon.
“Oh shit,” Colt scratched his neck while Reign turned her body to the other side. I am sure it wasn’t easy for her to
see her mate go through this moment.
“It is not his fault,” Zane suddenly spoke up, stepping forward and snatching the phone out of Maddox’s hands.
“I was the one who sent those messages and then slipped this phone in Maddox’s pocket to make him look guilty,”
his confession had too many holes in it. Nobody looked convinced, but he was admitting it from his own mouth.
“If you wanted him to look guilty, why did you accept that it was you who shoved it into his pocket?” I asked, but
Zane shrugged.
“I am an a*sshole; I changed my mind,” the tears in his eyes as he flashed me a broken smile crumbled my heart.
I wondered what happened to the good old days when we used to be such great friends. Spending time
transitioning and chasing each other for fun was no longer an option.
We were growing apart pretty quickly, too.
“Get out,” I said to Zane as I pointed my hand at the door.
He didn’t even resist and walked out of the cabin while leaving Gwen’s phone behind. I could tell everyone else was
looking at me like I was the one in the wrong here. “He admitted,” I said, not wanting to make eye contact with any
of them.
“You know why he did. This witch has left her phone in my pocket. He was only defending me,” Maddox’s voice
cracked as he questioned my ability to see right and wrong.

make him understand, but he only shook his head to dismiss my claims.
“You would rather leave your brothers; I get it,” he nodded his head, taking steps away from me.
“Maddox—,” soon he had walked out, and I was left with a broken heart and a mess of a life.
“Hey, I know you are feeling down and struggling, but the future holds all the solutions to our sorrows. Don’t worry,
I will look after them,” Reign whispered as she stepped after them, leaving me and Colt behind.
“I just don’t get it,” Colt mumbled.
“There is something wrong here,” he then added before he shook his head to stop talking, “I will go follow them.”
With those words leaving his mouth, he, too, left. Now I was left alone with no one but myself. Gwen had been in
her room, and I didn’t want to go check on her.
‘Do you think Beatrice will get mad at us for all this?’ Hel asked.
‘I honestly don’t know anymore. She wanted me to take care of Gwen. I hope she will be happy when she finds out I
did keep my promise,’ I sighed sadly.
‘But we lost our brothers while doing so,’ Hel mumbled, and while I agreed with him, I began to feel uneasy the next
moment. ‘I trust Gwen,’ I don’t know what happened, but I said it almost out of the blue. ‘I feel like she is not lying,’
as I finished my yammering, I turned my head and saw Gwen peering at me. Her arrival made me trust her and not
my brothers.
