Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee
Chapter 43-1 Am Going To Blow You Up, Stepbrother
I watched him pick a s*e*xy cheerleader costume for her while she didn't object. I didn't like how quickly he turned away from me.
"That's a good one," a boy commented as he walked past me and stared at the dress in my hand.
"Why don't you try the Chucky one instead?" He added, and his friend gave him a high five. I felt insulted and angry. Is this why Maddox lost interest so quickly because I didn't want to buy a s*e*xy costume? That was it. I picked up the s*e*xiest costume ever and walked over to pay for it. Thankfully, mom has given me some money, so I didn't have to ask Maddox to help me. He was still busy with that girl while I stood at the entrance and waited for him to finish shopping.
"You didn't have to pay for it," she giggled, letting him pay without even resisting.
"And why not? A girl like you should be taken care of." His voice was completely different when talking to her. I honestly never imagined Maddox would be interested in anyone other than himself, but I guess I was wrong. He was such a flirt.
"Why don't you come to my Halloween party tonight?" she asked, and a smirk appeared on Maddox's lips.
"Your Halloween party?" he asked, and she nodded, taking out an invitation card from her purse and handing it over to him.
"Shiloh Hitch!" Maddox tilted his head to watch her face and then smiled after realizing something: "You are Mr. Hitch's daughter? He is the Gamma Warrior of our pack. I remember he lost at one point to become a royal gamma." His memory was definitely not fooling him because she instantly nodded to confirm his statement.
"Just one point," she shrugged. "Hey! you are coming tonight, right?" She seemed much more normal now that he had recognized her father.
"Of course, I am. Is it at your residence? Where are your parents for the night?" he asked as he waved the invitation card in his hand.
"They will be out partying with the Royal Gamma couple. So, my mansion is open for any kind of fun you can dream up," she said as she ran her finger down his chest and grabbed the shopping bags to leave, "See you tonight!" She winked at him as she walked past him and out of the shop in a matter of seconds.
"What a candy," he turned and nearly ran into me, "Watch out grandma," he rolled his eyes and exited the shop as if he hadn't just flirted with someone else in front of me.
"You are not planning to go to the party, are you?" I asked, briskly walking after him to match his pace.
"Of course, I am. Why wouldn't I miss such a chance of getting laid with a s*e*xy bunny like her?" He scoffed and walked over to the car. So, they decided to pick a bunny costume for her. Definitely, it was his choice.
"But that's wrong," I said, refusing to get in the car until Mom and Lord Vasquez arrived.
"Okay," he said. It meant he didn't want to argue with me. I was boiling with anger even when it was cold. The way he was ignoring me while looking at me was not helping either. The least he could do was ask me if I even bought anything or not. But no! He was happy with himself for finding a girl to sleep with tonight.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I felt.
Mom and Vasquez joined us after a few minutes, and we began the journey back to the mansion.
"Dad! Do you remember Mr. Hitch?" Maddox was busy on his phone, but then he spoke to his father and ruined my mood even more.
"Of course, I do. He still works in the weapons department," Vasquez answered.
"Well, I met his daughter at the shop. She is throwing a Halloween party and has invited me over. I was thinking I'd skip the family dinner tonight and go to the party if you don't mind," he expressed his desire, and my gaze was drawn to Lord Vasquez as I hoped he rejected his suggestion.
"That is a good idea. Nobody is staying at home for dinner anyway. Go enjoy yourself," my hopes went down the drain when his father gave him a green signal.
"Why don't you take Beatrice with you?" It was then that his father thought of something and suggested that he take me along.
Maddox turned to me like he had been stabbed in the chest and then got up from the seat to sit on the edge to have a word with his father.
"Dad! People will talk about her and make me uncomfortable. She is pretty d*um*b-she is not suitable for such parties." He sounded so annoyed, constantly looking at me and then at his father. "That's why I want her to join you. She will see our pack's she- wolves and learn something from them," Vasquez's idea jolted my mother from the jewelry box she had been inspecting since she got in. "Eh? No! That is not a good idea. Beatrice doesn't enjoy attending such parties." Mom let out a nervous laugh and gently placed her hand on Vasquez's hand. He was in the middle of driving, so he didn't turn to look at her, but he felt her touch.
"Exactly." Maddox let out a sigh and leaned back comfortably. I was puffing air out of my nostrils and looking outside the window. Being unable to make a decision for me was so exhausting. Fortunately, Vasquez had other plans, which prevented him from accepting the two's objections.
"I want to spend some time in the mansion with you. You understand what I mean, right?" He slowed down just so that he could pass a look at my mother, who got his point.
"Fine. But make sure you take care of her and don't let her drink," my mother's words caused Maddox to sigh and silently clutch his hair in his fist.
So, I guess I was going to the party with him and would surprise him with a dress that was s*e*xier than Shiloh's.
