Helanie:
My stepbrothers coming to help me meant a lot, but I was still shaken by Dewitt's hostility toward me. And then Rayden touching me had ignited a spark of anger.
To the point that I nearly jeopardized my position in the eyes of the Council. Now, as my stepbrothers walked over and stood in front of me, I couldn't look past them. The way Norman had asked me what had happened gave me the feeling that no harm could get to me now. I felt safe. However, the issues were still unresolved.
But now my stepbrothers had to address Dewitt's burning questions.
"Because it's unusual for trainers to not only defend their student but also give her a place in their home, free food, therapy, and even—" Dewitt paused briefly before chuckling to himself. It sounded like a laugh of disbelief.
"Their own car and a driver, like she's some kind of Luna," he scoffed as he finished, making my heart skip a beat.
