Chapter 255: Mated to the Alpha Twins (2)

"Jephthah stop, you’re scaring her!" John pulled him by the colar and dragged him out the car, but Jephthah threw a fist at him, eyes glinting red and John skillfully dodged it.

Unfortunately, Jephthah probably predicted his move and threw another punch the next second, and John ended up staggering backwards while grabbing onto his chin.

"Go back home, John."

John moved his jaw to and fro, trying to adjust to the pain, but he didn’t move from his spot, watching as Jephthah’s camly got back into the car and began brushing small shards of glass off Talia’s shoulders while she stared warily at him.

"Did you tell him?" John suddenly asked outloud, turning to Talia.

Talia froze. She lifted her head and gave him a look which said ’Why the hell are you talking??’

But Jephthah saw the look, and paused in picking shards of glass off her body, realization dawning on him that they really were hiding something.

"What is he talking about?"

"I haven’t." Talia snapped, her eyes darkening in anger as she stared at John, wondering what he was up to.

"Then why are you over reacting? Why are you scaring her? Why did you have to hit me? Are you a f*cking as*hole?" John calmly asked, not even flinching when Jephthah leaned back before climbing out the car again to stand so he could see John and Talia at the same time.

"It’s either one of you talk right now or... I swear... "

"Will you hit me again? Or will you hit Talia instead." John retorted and Talia’s eyes grew wide when the brothers faced each other squarely with their hands turned into fists.

She quickly scrambled out of the car, her heels peeling off, leaving her feet bare, but she still managed to stand in between the two brothers, spreading her hands wide to lengthen the distance between them.

Her hair was disheveled, and the wind blew west on the quiet, abandoned road, dishelveling their hair more, causing small strands to fly over their eyes.

"We’ll tell you... just stop this..." She turned to John before turning back to her boyfriend. "You two. Stop. You’re brothers."

"A brother who hits the other for stopping him from murdering his girlfriend is no brother of mine."

"I would never hurt Talia, idiot. Don’t think you did me a favor."

"You two are seriously acting so immature right now... " Talia began mumbling, but she froze on hearing John’s next words.

He had a smug look as he stared straight at Jephthah’s eyes without batting an eye lid.

"I just found out that Talia and I are mates... " The fierce look in Jephtaph’s eyes disappeared in a nano second, and it bore one of confusion as his gaze moved from Talia to John and back again. "You know how I said we might end up having the same girl as mates in the future?"

"John... " Talia starts calling pleadingly, a sign for him to stop, but John ignored her and even pulled her so that she was in his arms while his hands were securely bound around her waist.

She was in complete shock, but before she could move, she noted the furious, burning, hurt gaze in Jephthah’s eyes as he stared at them both like they had betrayed them, and every ounce of strength in her evaporated like a drop of water in a dessert.

"Well, turns out that I wasn’t kidding... At all." John finishes.

There was a brief noise of the car keys dropping to the ground as Jephthah abruptly stepped away from the two like he was In disbelief and shock.

"Jephthah..." Talia pulled away from John’s grip, leaving him hanging as she chose to grab Jephthah’s arm instead.

"He were planning on rejecting me earlier...we just didn’t want to tell you... " She pleaded, and the two failed to notice the hurt look in John’s eyes when she said those words without hesitation.

"Are you stupid?" Jephthah was referring to John. "Do you realize if you had rejected her, you’d cut her off from me too? Since you’re so smart, why didn’t you think of this?"

"What?" Talia’s lips trembled slightly. "H- how can it be. I don’t understand."

"What’s there to understand?" He chuckled painfully. "All’s left is for him to mark you, and perform the other necessary rites... he’s your mate after all Talia." He sounded pained and hurt.

"We don’t have to be close.. we don’t even love each other" She turned to John who quickly comcelead the pain in his eyes with indifference. "Right John?"

He nodded, his throat too constricted to form words.

"Bullsh*t" Jephthah moved away from her grip, leaving her hanging. "It’s the mate bond, created to perfection by the Moon goddess herself. You two are bound to fall in love "

"You’re making it sound like it’s her fault." John shortened the distance between them, and Talia felt wary and cautious when she realized she was between the two men who looked like they wanted to rip each other into shreds. "It’s neither of ours and you know that. I didn’t even expect I’d come here on a business trip only to find out she’s my f*cking mate okay?"

"I have shared a lot of things with you In the past John, but I cannot let you have Talia."

And that was when Talia saw the hurt look in John’s eyes flash quickly before disappearing as he shrugged nonchalantly like the thought of loosing his mate didn’t bother him.

Guilt overrrided her other emotions as she stared at him with tears welling up in her eyes, but she turned away form him, hoping that maybe after a few days she’ll get over it and hope he moves on.

After all, he was bound to find more women to warm his bed up to forget her, so why not do the same.

"Get in the car." Jephthah said to her, and she complied, lowering her eyes to the ground.

Once she did, she shut the door, wondering what Ann’s reaction would be to the smashed up glass windows.

Jephthah turned to John.

There were silent unspoken words between them as he quietly turned away to get into the car and drive off, leaving John to stare after the vehiy like he was lost in a dream.

The guilt inside was eating him up, but the feeling of sharing Talia with John was stronger, so he couldn’t help but deny him his mate.

He badly wished there was a way to get them to reject each other and nullify the bond so the moon goddess could get him another, but sadly it wasn’t possible.

He noticed Talia hadn’t said a word and he decided to apologize and make up when he was at the hotel.

But as soon as he parked in the driveway, Talia threw the door open and hurriedly walking off with her heels in her hands, not even listening as he called after her.

Sighing, while frustratingly running a hand through his hair, he got into his car before driving off.
