Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

10-The Alpha Wants Me Back

I stayed in my room as Akin had asked me to, and when dinner time came; I began to feel uneasy. I don’t know why he recommended I stay inside and then didn’t send anyone to check up on me. I stayed put for hours, but then it became harder and harder as I began to feel hungry.

It was around midnight when I gave up. Sleep is only peaceful when your stomach is full. So regardless of how much I tried to take a nap, I couldn’t blink an eye. My stomach kept growing and making weird noises as if it would explode if I didn’t feed it anything soon.

“They must be in their rooms by now,” I reasoned as I rolled out of bed in black slacks and a white shirt. The mo- ment I unlocked the bedroom door and walked toward the kitchen, I began to feel uneasy. Maybe I shouldn’t have left my room.

But it was too late. I entered the kitchen and, to my sur- prise, they were already there. Zane and Flynn were preparing midnight snacks when I walked in on them.

“Dude! We ca–,” Flynn stopped talking when our eyes met. I quickly looked away and reached for the refrigerator, but he didn’t move.

“Beatrice!” he called for me, shock and astonishment visi- ble in his voice. It was so odd to see him and not talk to him. He was my only friend, and he made fun of me just to fit in with the cool people’s crowd.

“What are you doing here?” he rushed to my side, slam- ming the refrigerator door shut and glaring at me.

“I live here,” I whispered, sneaking a glance at Zane and wondering why he hadn’t told his best friend that I was living here now.
