237–Arrest Those Bitches.
Nora:
“What do you mean?” I asked April as she smirked and took a sip from her glass. I hadn’t even finished my first drink, which was non- alcoholic.
“I mean, you did the same to us. You didn’t want us to be with our boyfriends. You were so hesitant, even making your stepbrothers promise they wouldn’t date us. Why?” There was a trace of sarcasm in her voice, though she pouted, trying to look innocent as she asked the question.
“They didn’t want to date you. It wasn’t my job to force them,” I groaned in frustration.
“She knows how to lie,” Daphne remarked, downing her drink before signaling the server for another.
“I didn’t lie about anything. If you three don’t want to believe me, go ahead. I don’t care,” I stomped my foot, but couldn’t leave when Natalya’s words caught my attention.
“You shouldn’t be wasting what little energy you have by stomping your feet,” her comment made the others laugh.
I didn’t understand what was so funny about it.
So I just glared at her. Daphne noticed and stepped between us, acting as a shield.
“She’s not wrong. It’s not like you have much time left to argue with

us,” she shrugged with a smug expression.
I narrowed my eyes in confusion, glancing over her shoulder at April, who seemed ready to say something.
“Especially when you’ve been poisoned,” she spoke softly, making the others dramatically gasp and cover their mouths.
“Huh?” I didn’t realize what kind of sick joke this was until I saw Natalya smirk.
“It’s true. We’ve come to the realization that we can’t get rid of you any other way. So this is our last attempt,” she said, her tone serious, unlike the other two. But her words shook the ground beneath my feet. As I stepped back, Daphne added, “Don’t even think about calling for help. You don’t have much time.”
I was breathing heavily, still holding the glass in my hand. I raised it slightly, staring at it when I heard Natalya yelp.
Even though she was supposed to be careful, the shock made her blurt it out, “She didn’t finish the drink!”
Her words made me lift my head, watching them exchange glances.
Does that mean I still have time to inform my stepbrothers that I’ve been poisoned?
With that thought, I dropped the glass and sprinted towards the staircase to stop them from coming after me.
“Stop her, or we’re all going to prison!” Daphne yelled after the other
two.
They were chasing me like a pack of hyenas.

I had just reached the top of the staircase when a hand grabbed my arm and pulled me away from it.
It was Natalya.
Somehow, she had arrived before the others.
“You’re not going to ruin this for us,” she hissed. I noticed the other two emerging from the rooms and realized the severity of the situation.
If I didn’t get Natalya off me, the others would catch me, and it would be nearly impossible to fight them all.
I had only a few seconds to change my fate, so I seized the opportunity.
I shoved Natalya, and she crashed onto the glass table, shattering it as she fell. Her blood splattered everywhere like a waterfall.
The two were distracted, and I managed to run downstairs. However, April started chasing after me even as I reached my brothers.
“Hey! What’s going on?” Ryker was the first to catch me, steadying me so I wouldn’t fall.
Everyone stopped talking—the Alpha of the other packs and the council members all turned to see what the commotion was about.
“Take me to the hospital,” I pleaded, causing Ryker’s eyes to widen in surprise and concern.
“What are you saying? Are you hurt?” Silas took over, grabbing my arm and turning me around to face him.
It was unnerving because everyone could see and hear me.
“Just take me to the hospital, please,” I requested through tears.

I don’t even know why I followed those witches.
As soon as April arrived, she was seized by her arm, and I pointed my finger at her.
The fear on her face was unmistakable.
Nash held her and asked me, “What did she do?”
Everyone was watching us in worry, trying to grasp at the drama. I was feeling fine, but for how long, I don’t know. I was just glad I didn’t drink the whole thing.
Cain and Ryker surrounded me, making sure I didn’t collapse as I was breathing heavily and working myself up.
“They poisoned me,” I said, and the moment the words left my mouth, Nash’s grip on April tightened.

This might be a good read if it quits switching languages. It starts English then I believe maybe dutch then possibly Spanish so makes it hard to understand with not being able to read paragraphs at a time ....
