Chapter 556Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee Book 2
Chapter 546 Facing The Devil (Beatrice Dismay)
“Why didn’t we realize it was just Zane’ s plan to distract us?” I was constantly complaining and worried about what might be
happening in the dragon’s lair. If only we knew we were stepping into a trap, we would have never left anyone behind in the
dragon’s lair.
It was Zane’s idea to make us think we might win, fight the whole night, and then retreat, wasting time when gathering energy.
“It’s alright. I’m sure my brother and Colt had everything under control. By the time they are keeping the lair protected, we will also
arrive at the mansion,” Helel reassured me, trying to calm me down.
I wanted to believe him because his version of what might happen was much better than whatever negativity was brewing in my
head.

I just couldn’t seem to stop worrying.
A weird feeling of losing everything kept playing with my emotions. I tried my best to not think that way and stay positive, but it
wasn’t easy anymore. “I am unable to get in contact with them,” Reign complained, as she couldn’t call Colt. There’s another big
red flag. We have been unable to get in contact with them for hours now. It was getting exhausting.
Our jet landed in the mountains. From there, we just busted our asses running towards the destination.
By the time we all arrived at the lair, I was stunned to find it all silent.
It was so quiet that I had to constantly look around to be certain that we were in the right place. Helel
seemed all prepared for any type of scenario as he looked around. All our warriors were following us
silently; everyone was frightened at what we were going to face now.The roads were empty, but traces of bloodshed were everywhere. The situation itself was a hint that
something very terrible had gone down here. The wind making a sound was the only noise we could
get at the moment. And then I heard Reign gasp a little.
Upon following her gaze, we found Colt tied to a pole near the road.
“COLT!” Reign’s ear-splitting voice pierced through as she began to sprint in his direction. Helel and I
shared a glance before we looked around. It was like we kind of knew what was going on here.
“Reign! It’s a trap,” I yelled after her, but it was too late. She had approached him, and soon Jay came
out from behind the pole and grabbed her by her hair. It was all happening at a fast pace. So by the
time Reign opened her mouth to use a spell for her protection, Jay injected her with something that
suddenly brought her to silence.
“Let her go!” I lunged forward, but Helel held my hand to pull me back.
My heart skipped a beat at the revelation of Zane and his other people coming out from everywhere. It
was like watching a scene from a movie in which you know something disastrous happened.
If they were able to walk around so freely, it only meant one thing. That they have defeated Akin. No!
Just the mere thought of it sent shivers down my spine.
He will be so broken after losing a war against the devil. Worried and scared, I watched Zane take over
while Reign passed away in Jay’s arms.
“Welcome!” Zane yelled, his eyes darting right at me.
“Everybody stand back!” Helel raised his hand to order our warriors. Since all the lair was under Zane’s
arrest, we didn’t want to piss him off.Behind him stood Maura. Her eyes watched me for a moment before she swiftly turned her head down.
Could be wrong, but she didn’t look too happy for helping Zane with his mischievous plans.
“What have you done to Colt?” Helel yelled, making Zane smile at him.
“You are more focused on him than your own brother?” Zane’s comment made me frown: “I am here.
Talk to me; ask me how I am.”
We were stunned at Zane’s constant attempts at sounding like the victim. He always complained that
we weren’t welcoming to him.
I don’t know how one could even accept him after all the wrong deeds he had done.
“Stop talking nonsense; tell me where Akin is,” Helel yelled back at him, once again avoiding him.
“That is just so sad. The way you don’t even care about me and keep talking about everyone but me,”
Zane shook his head and clicking his tongue to express what he was feeling.
“Where is Akin?” I stepped ahead to shout, my heartbeat drowning in my chest now. I was beginning to get extremely worried now.
“Oh!” Zane voiced his concern, stepping ahead to reduce the distance between us.
“The desire of my broken heart, the breeze to my dry life—my beautiful mate is here, but she is asking for someone else,” the way
he introduced me to his people, I found Maura looking down.
I didn’t get why she was so miserably in love with him. He was clearly using her. “Oh! Don’t mind her,” Zane must have seen me
look at Maura because he instantly started clearing it up.
“She is on my team. A dear friend who is always there for me,” he added, and my throat began to get dry. He was so easily
downplaying his relationship with her once again, and she was right there, listening to it all.“Where is my Akin?” I didn’t care about his love life. I had my attention on my mate.
Zane reached me, and just when he was a few steps away from me, he shook his head in disappointment and sighed.
“This is the exact reason why I have to do it,” he shrugged, “and now I will be seen as a monster,” he added.
The way he kept dodging the topic of Akin was getting to me. I passed a quick glance around and noticed all the cages and the
people in them.
I even spotted my mother in one of the cages. But where were Akin, Shiloh, and Evelyn?
“Ah! Akin fought hard and will always be remembered as the hero who was this close to getting my mate,” as Zane hunched over
and announced the news to my face. I tumbled backward, unable to breathe.
