Accepting My Twin Mates Chapter 98

CHAPTER 95 – YOU KNOW ME?

“I don’t think I can look at him yet,” our mother shook her head, wrapping her arms around her midsection.

“It’s ok, mom,” Badru side-hugged her. “Just hang back here for now. You know where we’ll be.”

He swung open the door to the interrogation room that our mother had ducked into. She panicked at the last minute about facing Isaac and needed a moment to gather herself.

I turned to follow him out, but hung back in the frame, my brows skewed together in regret. I had jumped down my mother’s throat and threw her mistakes in her face when she was at her most vulnerable.

“Mom?” At my call to her, she swivelled to face me, her glaze-over eyes drew back to life with a shred of hope. “I’m sorry about back at home. I didn’t mean to snap at you.”

“Oh, habibi (darling),” she rushed forward and enveloped me in a hug, resting her head on my shoulder. “I know why… and you were right. What your father did… it was because of me.”

“Don’t give him any get out,” I rubbed her back, having to peel myself away from her. “If you can, come find us. He might say more if you’re there.”

‘And we might be less inclined to butcher the inb al kalb (son of a dog) in front of our mother,’ Aasim rumbled, pacing like a predator awaiting the prey to present itself.

“I’ll follow, just as soon as I work out what I’ll say.”

Badru had waited for me further down the corridor. Tamlyn was at his side and holding on to his forearm for guidance.

“Is our scooby-doo gang ready to investigate?” While her words were light, her tone and features were tight with tension and I hated that my first thought was to be wary of her motives.

“I guess,” it was hard to keep the doubt from my voice.

“Almost sounds like you don’t trust me?”

“We don’t know who to trust.”

“Not anymore,” my brother focused down the hall to our destination.

“Finally, something smart. Suspect the f**k out of everyone.”

“You don’t care that you’re under suspicion?”

I know I have nothing to hide and I know how much I want Evie back. So, if that means you guys throwing me in one of these things…” she waved her guide cane at the cells in front of us, “…for me to prove I have nothing to do with it, so be it. Just give me an audiobook or something if you
