Nora:

She approached me and stopped right before me, her eyes spewing hatred. She didn’t even have to start talking for me to know she was going to say something rude.

“So, what was decided?” she asked, her arms crossed over her chest. She couldn’t wait to ask her own husband? Why must she bother me?

“That I’ll be going to the mountains with the royal beta to capture the mutants,” I answered honestly. Surprisingly, she seemed pleased by the

news.

She was brimming with confidence now. I bet both her problems were headed to the mountains.

“Good. I hope you two know there’s a chance you might never return home,” she said, rolling her eyes dramatically, already wishing death upon

“I know. That’s why Brody was so against the idea of sending me to the

mountains. Even Rollo had to remind him that he has a mate at home

now,” I clicked my tongue, mimicking the dismissive gesture others used on me. I used to be the one getting mocked and played before.

I didn’t want to say it out loud, but sometimes, it’s not so bad to give back

to those who have been a bother in your life.

“What did you just say?” she suddenly seemed even more agitated. And that was all I needed. If she thought she could taunt me or wish death upon me, she was wrong.

“Oh, I didn’t know you had some hearing issues. Let me repeat myself in clearer words,” I cleared my throat as she glared at me. It was so fun watching her wait for me to say something ridiculous. Why must a person do that to herself?

“I said, Brody was against the idea of me going alone to the mountains. He was so worried for my safety,” I paused as her face darkened. “And then I chose Rollo, but thank goodness, Brody agreed with me even though his royal beta was against the idea,” I gave her a weak smile, getting under her skin successfully.

“Listen to me, you slut,” she lost it, but my smile didn’t fade. Simple words couldn’t harm me anymore. I no longer wished to be everyone’s favorite girl. But she was fuming now. I had grown tired of her name- calling every time she saw me, so today I gave her a reason to do it better.

“If you think this whole battle thing will bring you closer to Brody, you’re wrong,” she warned, wagging her finger in my face.

“But it will, though. I mean, we’ll be spending quite a lot of time together, like a loooot of time,” I sighed, “but don’t worry, I won’t let him cheat on you.” Every word I spoke was meticulously planned to unsettle her, and it seemed to be working.

“You think-” she paused as I saw Clara enter the mansion and stare at us.

It was clear she was trying to understand why the Luna of the pack was talking to me.

“I said don’t worry, and by the way, thank you for being so nice to me and even talking to me when others think I’m some sort of disease,” I said, trying my best to look enthusiastic for Clara.

Janet had her back to Clara, so I took the opportunity to turn the situation. against them.

“And I’ll make sure I remember your words. I’ll let you know later what happened,” I gave Janet a secretive smile but stepped back when Clara reached us. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“I’ll go back to my room now,” I flashed Janet a smile that was deceptively.

sweet to Clara.

Janet didn’t say anything as she was still preoccupied with the fact that Brody was concerned about me. I wasn’t sure if the two had spoken, but I walked straight to the hallway, heading back to my room with a beaming smile. I was about to reunite with my babies, and during the daytime, no less. I was elated. However, it seemed that happiness didn’t want to linger with me for too long. I heard someone calling my name, and my steps. came to a halt.

“Nora!” Mrs. Fisher approached, a scowl on her face.

“Yes, Lady?” I tilted my head, batting my eyelashes at her. I had noticed how she would become irked whenever she saw me smiling, so I smiled

even more.

“Your smile makes you look creepy,” she commented with a sneer, attempting to ruin my mood, but her words no longer affected me. I had heard worse.

“Awe! I thought I looked cute,” I pretended to pout, which only made her grunt louder.

“What is it you want?” I sighed, giving in and asking her, though I wasn’t prepared for what she would say.

“Your stepbrothers have been bombarding the alpha’s phone, inquiring about you.”
