352–The Adventure Of Seeing Them Again

Nora:

There was a king–sized bed in the middle of the room, with a window behind it. A balcony offered a full view of the beautiful mountains, the same ones I only visited to slay monsters or capture them. The room was adorned with elegant decor, a closet full of new clothes, a spacious bathroom complete with a large tub.

“I’m ready,” I said, walking up to him so we could leave, but he chose to stand in the doorway, eyeing me like a creep.

“I forgot how fragile you could look,” his compliment felt more like a slap.

“Huh? Is it really that easy to fool you alphas? All a woman needs to do is dress up, and suddenly she’s fragile, and that intrigues you?” My comment instantly erased his smile.

“At least smile when someone compliments you,” he rolled his eyes. “Please make sure they leave quickly.”

The fact that he added “please” for the first time was because he didn’t want to outright threaten me with my children’s lives and safety. He was cunning but also foolish to think that just because he wasn’t saying it out loud, he wasn’t guilty of it.

“It will be soon–if you get going,” I gestured for him to step aside, and he did. We walked out of the room, and even when he tried his best to hold

“Hey, welcome to my pack,” Brody, who had already met them, greeted the visitors again as we entered the living room.

I had to hold my breath and quickly look at the TV to avoid making direct eye contact with them. I wanted to appear as if their presence meant nothing to me, but it did. It reminded me of the endless nights of weeping and pain.

“Hi, Nora!” Lord Atwood quickly got up and came toward me for a hug, but I stepped back, making it seem natural.

“Hello, how was your journey?” I asked with a wide smile, extending my hand for a handshake.

He stared at my hand for a moment before accepting it.

The brothers had been silently watching me the entire time. But I was trying my best to not look directly at them.

“It was tiring, but seeing you made it all worth it,” Lord Atwood spoke in his usual sweet tone, but this time, I wouldn’t be fooled.

“That’s great. You guys sit and talk, I’ll go see what the maids are up to,” I gently patted Brody’s arm, summoning all the courage I had to touch him.

I gave them a smile, deliberately avoiding direct eye contact with the brothers, keeping my gaze solely on Lord Atwood. I could tell they wanted me to stay, but I needed to get away from them. They had to know I was over them so they’d leave early, and I

Besides, i thought it wouldn’t be so crazy seeing them but oh! The mate bond was making me go crazy even when I had a ring on my finger. Or maybe it was my emotional attachment to them that was making me act

“Sure,” Brody quickly agreed, while the others remained silent. I got up and swiftly moved out of the living room, taking a deep breath to calm my

nerves.

“Not easy, huh?” Rollo commented, leaning over the back of the couch as I stood in front of it. This was a small living room after the guest living room. I wondered why Rollo didn’t enter the room to meet up with the royals as he was a royal beta.

“I hate pretending like I want to stay in contact with certain people,” I didn’t bother hiding it anymore. I had cut ties the last time they kicked me

out.

I still managed to text Ryker, but his response made me feel so ashamed of myself that I promised never to let them fool me again.

“I wonder if you stay talking to me because you have to, or is it because I am not that bad to keep around,” he joked and I rolled my eyes.

“That’s alright. They’re only here for a day or two. Brody has already contacted the council to request the brothers return to their pack and take brothers return to their pack and take care of their own people,” Rollo added, and I sighed in relief. care of their own people,” Rollo ad

“That will be so helpful,” I remarked. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I hope it’s not because you’re missing our adventures together?” There he was, joking with me again.

“Not reall—” Before I could finish, I heard someone interrupt.

“Nora!”

My body flinched at the voice, instantly recognizing it as Nash’s.
