Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee Book 2
Chapter 380
Akin’s POV:
“The security footage had been wiped clean,” Zane sat with me on the bench as he told me he also met
a dead end.
“How is that even possible? How could anyone have entered the royal locker and stolen something so
crucial?” I complained, expressing my sorrow over the fact that our royal locker got robbed and we
didn’t even know.

“That’s not the only thing that had been stolen. Remember that green pearl we extracted from Gwen’s
tears when she died? That is also missing,” Zane added. “It seems like the weredragon stuff was
stolen,” he then explained, and he was actually right.
Those two things were important, as her tear pearl could have been very useful for many things.
“What to do next?” Zane asked actively. He had been more active than the others when looking for
Beatrice’s pendant. I could tell he was hoping she would pick him when she woke up and reject Helel.
“I will ask Reign to try finding the pearl instead. Maybe the two things were stolen by the same person,
so we might get lucky,” I said, but I was not very certain if that would even be possible. Whoever stole
the pendant must also have stolen the pearl, and if they can protect the pendant from being located,
they must have protected the pearl too.
But why did they steal the pearl?
“Have you spoken to Helel?” I asked as I faced him. The two hadn’t spoken again after the whole mess
started almost three months ago.
“No! There is no need for it. He is too high on his ego to be talking to the brother who is nothing,” Zane
mumbled and stole his eves from me because he was still feeling the pain from all the times Helel had
raised his hand to him.
“Gwen said Helel has settled in a cabin in the woods. So, I am assuming he is never returning home,” It
was such a burden on my heart to say that. Even to think my brother would never return to live where
we used to live as a family was just saddening.
“Gwen is still in contact with him? But she always acts like they don’t talk. What is going on between
the two of them anyway?” Zane asked, as everybody had been noticing Gwen’s interest in Helel lately.
“She takes food for him and he rejects it every day,” I replied, not shedding light on the fact that she
told me so easily that she is mates with Helel.
Ever since Zane told me to watch out for Gwen, I had been worried if she was indeed trying to get us
apart. Because now that Helel thought all of us were his enemies, the only person he had seen wander
around him and care for him was Gwen. Besides, her pearl was stolen. What if she has the pearl?
And then Maddox told me another possibility of Gwen knowing the pendant is by saying maybe Gwen
doesn’t want Beatrice to come out. That would be the perfect revenge she could get on Beatrice for
trying to get her killed.
There was no way Gwen was being honest with us. Or maybe we were just looking at the wrong
person?novelbin
“So, Beatrice goes in the cabin, and Gwen tries to get to Helel’s head? What is she even planning at
this point? And why the heck is she not leaving our mansion?” Zane looked visibly disturbed by her
presence. And now even Maddox would avoid her.
“Let’s just avoid these conflicts for now. We cannot do anything until we have solid proof about her
involvement in the disappearance of the pendant and the pearl,” I told Zane, getting up and preparing
to leave. We have been sitting outside the police building and talking for too long by now. I usually only
sit around for a few minutes a day. I am on the constant lookout for the pendant.
“Then kick her out,” Zane shrugged his shoulders, getting up with me, “what if whoever has the stuff is
getting info from her? What then?” Zane added after he found me not commenting on his suggestion.
“I will see what I can do. Someone has that pendant, and I need—,” I was in the middle of talking to
Zane when my phone rang, and I frowned at the caller ID.
“It is one of the guards who used to work here,” I said, attending the call in hopes of hearing good
news.
“Yes?” I answered the call in agitation because I had asked mv men to talk to him and ask him if he
remembered someone visiting the station and acting weird.
“There is something I need to talk to you. It is about that pendant and the pearl,” the guard said, making
my blood rush in mv veins.
“I am coming over,” I said and hung up, smiling wildly at Zane.
“They found the pendant, didn’t they?” The smile on Zane’s face indicated he had very high hopes of
seeing Beatrice again.
“Not yet, but the guard knows something. I will go meet up with him while you go pick up Reign and
Colt,” I assigned him work since he wanted to be useless and left to meet up with this guard.
After a few minutes of me driving to the location where this guard was living, I received another call,
which broke my confidence and dashed my hopes.
“What?” I gasped in shock.
“What the heck!” I let out a grunt, and the guard said it more clearly this time.
“That guard ended his life and left a note on the side, saying he just wanted to get attention and have
someone find his body sooner so that his family can have a proper funeral for him,”
The news was devastating and also upsetting because my hopes had been really high. I hung up and
clenched my jaw, closing my eyes before I threw a tantrum, so when my phone rang again, I was
already frustrated.
“What the f*uc*k now?” I yelled on the call, suddenly stopping when I heard what the person on the
other end of the line had to say.
“I have the pendant,” his voice sent shivers down my spine.
