Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

37-Her Worst Fears

“Mom?” I frowned, watching others grimace and get up from their seats.

Following my voice, mom sprinted towards the living room with Lord Vasquez behind her.

I was in shock for a minute before I landed on my feet and rushed to hug her.

“My Beatrice!” Mom’s arms made me feel secure. I kept my arms tied around her for a moment before we parted, and she cupped my face to stare into my eyes.

“Oh! You have a fever,” she said, a frown appeared on her face when she cupped my face and realized how hot my skin was.

“Why is she sick?” She let go of me and turned around to look at the brothers, who looked upset at the sight of her.

Lord Vasquez was in the process of meeting his sons when mom called for their attention, and they all turned to her.

“She–,” Akin cleared his throat because his father was staring at him for answers.

“I was out in the rain,” I interrupted him and told my mom how I got sick. She took a quick glance at the brothers and then focused on me.

“Why?” as she asked, I saw the brothers sneakily looking around. Maddox lowered his face like a culprit while the others were scratching their necks and chins and focusing on the surroundings. I bet they were worried I was going to expose what Maddox did to me.

“I wanted to enjoy the rain,” I lied, and finally, they all looked like they had found peace.
