Nora: 

“I’m really looking forward to this ball. I hope we can hang out more and really build a good relationship,” Brody beamed as he drove me home. 

It was unsettling, or even strange, how my energy had dropped again. But I hadn’t felt this drained while shopping with Silas. I enjoyed his attention. 

Oh goddess! Am I really so shallow? 

Why the heck was I so excited to be around my Stepbrothers? 

Do I have a kink for forbidden romance or what? 

“So, what do you think?” Brody asked again, but I hadn’t heard a word. However, he did shake me awake to reality and I slightly turned to acknowledge him. 

“Come on, Nora! What’s going on?” He slowed down to check on me. 

“Nothing. I just miss my mother,” I muttered. 

I noticed a slight shift in his body language, but I couldn’t tell what it 

meant. 

“By the way, I was thinking we could visit my pack after the ball,” he repeated, avoiding the topic of my mother. 

I couldn’t help but remember how he acted with Natalya, lying about

her wolf. Could he feel awkward about my mother, given she was accused of seducing Lord Atwood? 

“I’m not sure. I’ll have to ask Lord Atwood,” I mumbled, turning my head to look out the window. 

“Don’t worry about that. I’ve already spoken to him and he liked the idea,” Brody said, causing me to close my eyes before turning to him. and forcing a smile. 

“Great. I’ll be excited to see your pack,” I faked enthusiasm, but he believed it. Leaving the mansion to go stay in his pack for a day or two will be hard on my wolf. 

The unavailability of chances to transition were coped with the scent of my mates most of the time. So staying away from them would be hard and painful. 

The whole time, he was happily chatting with me while I was feeling low in energy. What was wrong with me? 

Any girl would love to be in my position, pursued by a handsome alpha like Brody. So what was my problem? 

Or maybe who was my problem? I just didn’t get why the Moon. Goddess mated me to these two brothers and then made them so strong that they didn’t even feel the pain of staying away from their mate. 

We pulled up at home, and Lord Atwood was standing at the entrance with Ryker, who was leaning over the car hood, a map spread out on it. They seemed deep in conversation until they spotted Brody’s car. 

“I’ll go say hi,” Brody said, getting out of the car and leading me towards Lord Atwood, who greeted us with a smile as he watched Brody, the alpha, with me.

“Where did you catch him?” Lord Atwood asked playfully. 

I laughed in response, though it was more forced. Ryker bent further over the map, one arm resting on it, his body turned towards us, studying us. 

“Why don’t you stay for lunch?” Lord Atwood offered Brody, who nodded and accepted. 

As I watched Ryker, something stirred inside me. I wanted revenge on him and Cain. I wanted to settle scores with everyone who had hurt 

1. me. 

“Come on, you can wait in my room until then.” I moved closer, wrapping my arm around Brody’s and giggling. 

Ryker immediately looked down, focusing on his map again, marking it with pointers while his father stood beside him. 

Walking away arm in arm with Brody, I felt a strange satisfaction when Ryker looked away. It might have meant nothing, but I wanted to believe he was a little jealous. Or maybe I was imagining things? 

We headed straight to my bedroom, and now I was lost. I didn’t know 

what to do. 

Brody was sweet and eager to build our relationship, but I was still haunted by my past. 

I was also anxious about the lingering mate bond. Would they never accept me? I needed to move on and find happiness soon. If my human self is content, when I twist my ring again, Akira won’t go completely crazy on me. She’ll be somewhat calmed down. 

“Come, sit here,” I said, settling on the bed and patting the space beside me.
