Chapter 2 Aroma in the Bathroom
2034 Words
Beryl's POV:
I sighed.
"Actually, I've always existed.
Don't believe the lies of those who think you won't awaken your wolf or the pain they inflict upon you.
I'm sorry I can't be with you right now, but f**k those people!
Fuck this whole messed-up experience! "
After responding to me, my wolf went silent again.
The entire attic became quiet.
No matter how I called out to her, she didn't appear.
Was everything that just happened a dream?
I went to wash my face.
The cold water splashed on my cheeks, bringing me slightly back to my senses.
I looked at myself in the mirror, and for a moment, I almost believed that the voice I had just heard was my imagination.
But, my wolf, she did show up, right?
She wasn't my imagination, right?
I wasn't so sure anymore.
Lyra was downstairs yelling at me again.
"Beryl, you lazy girl!
You didn't clean up the mess from yesterday's party!
Aren't you supposed to go to school?"
At Lyra's inquiry, my heart began to race.
I swore to myself that I would never let the twins hurt me again.
I wouldn't cry because of them again.
I cleaned up the messy kitchen.
It was an unimaginable mess.
Sweet cream cake was all over the floor, and I had to wipe off the stains bit by bit.
In the process, grease stained my clothes, and my hair was still stained with the cream Lucas had smeared on me yesterday.
My body ached with exhaustion. I decided to take a shower first, at least to make myself less smelly before school.
I took off my clothes, and my slender, white legs stepped into the bathroom.
The shower head poured down on me.
I felt the hot water gradually submerge me.
My high chest heaved in the water.
Soon, I forgot about my fatigue and just immersed myself in the relaxing and soothing environment.
Third Person POV:
Lucas and Andrew woke up with hangovers.
Yesterday's coming-of-age party had left them wild and exhausted.
They drank a lot of juice and alcohol.
Actually, with the werewolves' drinking capacity, they wouldn't get drunk from a little alcohol.
But yesterday, they were so exhilarated that they completely forgot to restrain themselves.
In the end, the brothers part ways.
Now, Lucas was awakened first by hunger.
His sense of smell slowly returned.
Soon, he smelled an irresistible fragrance!
Although the smell was somewhat familiar, he felt that it was completely different from the smell he had smelled before.
This indistinguishable scent drove Lucas crazy!
He needed to know the source of this fragrance.
It smelled like honey and roses, with a hint of vanilla.
Although Lucas was terrified inside, on the surface, he looked very calm.
Lucas knocked on Andrew's door.
Andrew was still half asleep when he was awakened suddenly.
He didn't look very happy.
"What's wrong, brother?"
"Come to my room," Lucas said succinctly.
He needed Andrew to confirm the source of the scent.
He had to find it!
Andrew scoffed at him.
"What's wrong with your room? Was our party yesterday too crazy?"
"No. I want you to smell this." Lucas frowned.
The smell kept stimulating his senses, and the pain of longing and dissatisfaction was tearing at his nerves.
Soon, Andrew also noticed something was wrong in Lucas's room.
"What is this? Damn it, where is this smell coming from? Why didn't I smell it?! Which woman have you been with?"
Lucas gave him a dark look and warned, "I haven't! I'm not bound to any woman, you know that!"
Andrew gradually became irritable.
"No, I don't know whose scent this is, but it's driving me crazy. I need to get it!"
Lucas was not as anxious as Andrew.
Although his heart was already in turmoil, Lucas still pretended to be indifferent.
"It seems that our mate appeared in my room."
"Who is it?" Andrew asked impatiently.
"I can't wait to taste her. My God, how sweet she must taste, how good she must taste!" Andrew clapped his hands in excitement.
"Could it be one of your girlfriends?" Lucas had several girlfriends, but they had never had s*x.
Lucas was good at playing with these women and watching them scream for him.
Lucas said dismissively, "It can't be them. They don't smell that good. If it wasn't for fun, I wouldn't even bother with them. Besides, this smell is familiar, like... like..."
Andrew sniffed hard.
"I smell it; this fragrance is spreading elsewhere!"
The two brothers followed the scent to the door of the attic.
Here, the aroma was the strongest, and the smell of honey and roses rushed towards them.
A sly look appeared in Lucas's eyes, and he smiled, "It seems that our little maid has grown up."
Andrew pushed the door open impatiently.
The attic was empty, except for a small bed in the corner swaying in the wind.
"Oh my god, is Beryl's bed still so small? I thought this was something she would sleep in when she was a child."
Lucas's sharp eyes searched for Beryl's figure, indifferent to Andrew's words.
"This is what her place has always looked like. However, Beryl is almost an adult. Maybe we should persuade our parents to buy her a bigger bed."
Stepping into the attic, Lucas walked towards Beryl's bed.
Her scent permeated the bed, the same honey and rose scent that had just driven the twins crazy.
He picked up Beryl's pillow, put it under his nose, and sucked hard, hoping he could pour all her breath into his lungs.
Andrew said, "Has Beryl gone to school?"
Lucas noticed the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
The corners of his mouth curled up.
"It seems not."
"What should we do, brother?" Lucas narrowed his eyes.
"Shall we wait outside for this little lamb to fall into our trap?"
Andrew restrained his urge to rush in.
"Maybe Beryl has changed to a new shower gel."
However, just then, the sound of running water in the bathroom became louder and louder, and the fragrance became stronger and stronger with the sound of the water, as if it was about to envelop the twins.
Andrew gritted his teeth.
"I have to see who's in the bathroom. Is it Beryl?"
Lucas rolled his eyes.
"You have poor control, my dear brother." But just as he finished speaking, Andrew quietly opened the bathroom door.
Beryl's beautiful body appeared before them.
Her breasts were well-developed, white, elastic, and light pink, like a coveted cherry.
Her waist was slender, and her legs were long and straight.
She was arranging her long, curly blonde hair, letting it fall casually, loose and bouncy, like a golden waterfall, cascading down her back, sparkling.
Her fingers stroked her collarbone, and the water made her skin look moist and smooth.
Andrew's light blue eyes instantly turned black.
Lucas's pupils also changed color.
Their excitement surged.
"Did you notice?" Andrew swallowed, his stunned expression saying it all; he was amazed.
Their little maid was so plump!
Her figure was the perfect hourglass shape!
Lucas licked his lips and smiled wickedly, his dimples showing, "She smells delicious."
"Yes!" Andrew's eyes widened, and he roared in disbelief.
"Oh my god, brother, do you know what my wolf told me? It actually said that Beryl is our mate!"
Beryl's POV:
Oh!
Damn it!
I was looking at the door in confusion when I noticed someone seemed to be walking towards my bathroom.
Then I saw the twins, they were coming towards me because of a smell.
But they obviously didn't notice that I was naked at the moment, I was naked, I was taking a shower!
When they stood in front of me, they were shocked; they could see every inch of my body. I was going crazy!
I freaked out and screamed.
I hurriedly covered myself with a towel, and I shouted in collapse, "Get out! Get out!"
I don't understand why the twins always made me feel so embarrassed!
Why wouldn't they let me go?!
"Beryl." The twins showed no sign of leaving; they were calling my name in their usual arrogant and playful tone.
This made me even more out of control; my skin turned pink.
"Why don't you leave me alone?! You actually came to peek at me while I was taking a shower! This is too much!!"
My voice was trembling, my cheeks were burning, I swore, I didn't want to cry, but I was trembling all over.
I grabbed my clothes, and I ran out as fast as I could as if they were evil spirits chasing me.
My chest heaved violently; I went back to my room and locked the door immediately.
Tears slipped from the corners of my eyes; I saw myself in the mirror, my face pale. I leaned back against the door, a chill flowed from my body, and I rubbed my arms.
Their behavior touched the most unacceptable part of my heart!!
I could bear to be humiliated in public last night, but what I couldn't accept was that they broke into my bathroom casually.
As if I was just a lowly object, I had no self-esteem, no privacy.
After a minute, I sighed, and my tears temporarily stopped flowing; I unfolded a piece of toilet paper, crumpled it into a ball, and wiped my nose.
I tried to regain my composure.
But I failed.
With strong grievances and sadness, I fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, I kept hiding from the twins.
But unexpectedly, as I was changing to go to school, Andrew ran up to me.
Andrew looked at me.
"I won't hurt you again. I should apologize to you."
I was shocked.
"You don't have to play these tricks, Andrew. What new trick is this to make fun of me?"
Andrew said seriously, "I'm serious. Let's talk, Beryl."
Looking at Andrew's attitude, I don't think he was joking.
"But I'm going to be late for school. I have to walk, and it will take a long time." I felt a pain in my heart.
I ignored the twins, pushed the door open, and walked out.
It took a long time to walk to school, but when I looked back, I was surprised to see the twins behind me.
They were driving, silently following me.
I couldn't believe it.
What happened to them today?
I knew I couldn't be soft-hearted towards the twins.
Otherwise, I would be the only one who gets hurt.
But just then, I ran into Ashley.
Ashley didn't like me because the Alpha adopted me.
She often bullied me, sticking pencils in my jeans and locking me in the gym all night.
When Ashley saw me, she walked over viciously and pushed me.
"Maid! Does it feel good to be a maid?"
My ankle hit a rock, and the pain made me fall to the ground.
Ashley kept kicking me.
"What tricks are you playing again? Do you think I don't know your tricks?"
The pain made me break out in a cold sweat, unable to resist at all.
"Get away from her, you b***h!" Andrew rushed over and glared at Ashley. "Can't you see she's hurt?"
Ashley was usually a loyal fan of the twins. After being scolded by Andrew, she didn't dare to refute.
Andrew gently picked me up in his arms, which shocked me even more than my injury.
'He must have changed his personality today,' I thought.
"Andrew, I... I don't need you..." Before I could finish speaking, Andrew put me in the back seat of the car.
He cleaned my wound and put a band-aid on my ankle.
"Beryl, I apologize again. I shouldn't have bullied you, and I shouldn't have opened the door when you were taking a shower this morning."
Lucas also sighed.
"We're really sorry. The way we treated you was disgusting. Can you give us a chance to love you?"
I was so shocked that I was speechless.
The twins' reactions today were really strange, completely different from their usual attitude towards me!
I've always wanted them to apologize, but now, I'm not sure if an apology was enough.
