Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 719

Chapter 719: 719-The Kiss And Kesha Unns

Helanie:

I had to go outside and meet everyone, as they had finished their dinner. They were still sticking around for drinks, the royals sharing a toast to celebrate finding their fated mates.

I didn’t expect any leniency from my mates, since I was the one who had pushed them toward accepting theirs. But Norman and Maximus told me they wouldn’t accept their mates tonight. They wanted to take it slow, at least for now.

However, the full moon was coming in a few days, so they would have to do it eventually. They just didn’t want to announce it tonight. Even though I could tell Kesha was pressuring Kaye, he also told his brothers he wouldn’t do it right away. I had seen him check his phone, her name popping up on the screen quite often.

My mates had already gone to speak with the royals and spend time with them. I walked out of the guest room, fixing my hair, when I spotted Kaye. He had his hands in his pants pockets, his body leaned back casually.

"So, I’m not going to get any kisses?" he asked, making me clench my fists.

"Kaye, you should first work on your communication skills. You can’t just keep staring at me and doing things that make me question your feelings, your honesty, your loyalty, and then expect me to come give you a kiss and treat you the way I treat Maximus and Norman. They’re very honest with me," I said.

Kaye started to lick his teeth and laugh.

"Yeah, so honest that the two people who were supposed to tell you the truth about your child’s passing were the ones who kept it. But sure, I’m the bad guy," he said, his eyes moving a little too fast.

I noticed some changes in him, but I was keeping it to myself for now. I would definitely bring it up to Maximus and Norman later.

"What is it, Kaye? What are you angry at me for?" I asked, watching him raise his hand to scratch his neck, or more specifically, the tattoo he had gotten sometime last year.

I began to focus on the details of the tattoo, and something about it gave me the heebie-jeebies. It wasn’t just a simple design. It was a mermaid tail with a sword, or maybe a dagger, piercing straight through it.

"What?" he asked with a smirk.

I stepped back and shook my head.

"You like it?" he asked. I looked up.

"The tattoo," he said, pointing and tapping his fingers against it. It was as if he knew it had unsettled me. But it made no sense. He hadn’t even known I was a mermaid before. Yet the design, a mermaid tail stabbed through the middle, was making my head hurt.

"Anyway, I don’t hate you. You know that," he said as he finally stood straight and came to stand in front of me, or rather, tower over me.

"I’m just saying that the things you said about my mother and your mother, they’ve definitely built a wedge between us. And not because of me, but because you’re ready to take your mother’s side. But you get upset when I take mine."

He finished, and I began to hug myself uncomfortably.

"My mother never tried to kill you, okay? But your mother has done way more to me," I said, staring him dead in the eyes, my head tilted back to meet his gaze.
