421–Helping Nora By Breaking Her Heart
Silas:
“What?” I raised my voice, watching my brothers smile at me. They all looked so incredibly evil. There was no way they thought about this plan and genuinely believed it was good enough to even say out loud.
“You have lost your mind,” I said, then turned to my brothers, “He has lost his mind, right?”
I wanted to confirm they were not on the same page as him. But my heart sank in my chest when they seemed to be agreeing a lot with my brother.
“Are you all crazy or what? Or is this some way to torture me?” I just needed to confirm they weren’t messing with me.
“Listen, we are not asking you to do that for real,” Cain tried to explain their intention to me, but he confused me even more.
“Oh, so you want me to play games or get engaged just because you guys are getting bored?” I was annoyed.
Last night, it was because of them that Nora got so upset with me. If I hadn’t listened to them and just spent the night discussing the Weeping Guardians with her, I would have had a better chance to win her heart and
get her to open up to me.
And now they were expecting me to get engaged to someone so that Nora would see me just the way she saw them–
and not with very much affection.
“If you let me finish,” Cain groaned, and in that moment, I realized he had

more to add. “Nora isn’t going to crack. The way she is making progress with the mission here makes me believe it wouldn’t be long before she goes back home. After that, it will be very difficult for us to find out what is going on. So, in order for us to uncover the secret she is hiding, one of us has to go back with her–” Cain raised his index finger when he noticed me opening my mouth to question that part.
I was about to pose a good question, but he caught me off guard.
“The council wouldn’t let us go there, and even if we do, it will only be for a short period of time, as it wouldn’t make sense to them that we want to go spend time there. Hence, we need a solid reason to go there and stay,” he concluded. But that’s when Ryker spoke up.
“So, getting engaged to Clara means you get to go there whenever you want.”
I nodded at the idea, genuinely impressed.
“Got it. I applaud whoever came up with this plan. But tell me something: why me? Why do I need to sacrifice my reputation in Nora’s eyes for this cause?” I knew the cause meant a lot.
“Because Clara likes you!” Cain stated, his arms folded over his chest.
“And because you want to help Nora out of whatever mess she has been entangled in,” Ryker added.
“And because we’ve already dated bitches for her sake once. Now it’s your turn,” Nash cleared his throat and commented with much arrogance.
“Oh, so basically you guys want me to suffer just the way you all did,” I smirked, realizing how foolish they were to think I would agree to this.
“No need for me to break her heart and push her away when I can just use my brain and–” I was rambling when my father arrived with a raised

“What are you gentlemen up to?” he gazed at us all, and when no one answered, he turned to me. “Silas, I want you to do something.”
“Sure, what is it?” I turned to my father, feeling a little down.
Just the thought of my brothers wanting me to be with Clara, even if it meant for a greater purpose, cast a shadow of darkness over my head.
I hated the idea of someone else looking into my eyes. It should only be Nora.
“Clara has expressed her desire to go for a drive with you,” my father said, looking concerned when he spoke to me. Almost as if he knew what he was asking would upset me.
Then why did he?
“Dad! I’m not some chauffeur who would drive her around,” I groaned inwardly while sneakily casting glances at my brothers. This wish of Clara’s probably gave them more reason to pressure me into taking her
out.
“Just do it. She will take her anger out on Nora. Remember, her brother is the royal beta,” Dad said, making us share a glance and then look his way.
“Why would a royal beta be able to scare Nora for upsetting his sister? Isn’t Nora the Luna of the pack?” Ryker asked the question we all wanted to know from Dad.
It wasn’t because it would be a big revelation. We had already concluded something was going on behind our backs; we just wanted confirmation from our father.

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 ....
