360–It Hurts
Ryker:
The dinner was so uncomfortable. I couldn’t even eat anything properly. I hadn’t come here to feast on food anyway. I had come here to take Nora back. However, the way she had been acting made me wonder if it would be a difficult task until Brody introduced his wife to us.
“We shall return now,” Dad hadn’t been able to ease up when one weird secret after another was exposed. First, he met up with the horrifying sight of Nora fighting in Arena, and now the second mate and his wife.
“You guys go ahead and help Dad get comfortable while I take a walk with Nora,” the minute I said that, I watched Brody and Nora exchange a glance.
“With
my
wife?” Brody asked, all smiles, but there was a hint of discomfort in his voice that only I could detect. I had been his friend. once, so I knew him very well. He had done something very wrong here, and I wasn’t going to let it slide that easily.
“Why not? She was his stepsister once. They had a bond of friendship; why can’t a Luna of the pack show the Alpha King her garden?” My dad was quick to come to my defense, making my wish to speak with the Alpha King’s wife seem like a more serious matter. Usually, Luna’s of the packs would invite us for walks where they suggest or request some help for their packs.
He provided a reasonable excuse. “Of course, I didn’t mean to act like I was objecting. Janet, you should join them too and see if you can share the pack’s ideas with the Alpha King as well.” Brody
clearly thought he could outplay me.

“Why? Is she the one fighting him at Arena?” Janet stopped when I asked that question. “I only want to take a stroll with the fighter. I would love to hear the Luna’s opinion and suggestions on how to improve one’s pack.” My smirk made Brody’s face darken.
Of course, he was reminded of one fateful night when he lost his mate. after she had taken a stroll with me. The look on his face fulfilled my heart. I didn’t need a dessert for that reason alone. I knew it would be enough to sweeten my mood.
“Shall we?” I asked Nora directly, who confidently got up and shrugged. I had never seen her so confident before. Although I was impressed and happy that she had learned to control her wolf and put it to better use, I still felt uneasy about the vibes the three of them were giving off.
Nora and I walked out of the mansion in silence. Her cologne was enough to speak to me and mesmerize me.
“So, congratulations on your wolf,” I started, sliding my hands into my pockets. I had to look away every few seconds to calm myself. Walking with her under the cloudy sky and the mild wind carrying her scent was not easy for me. I kept thinking about ways I could hold her and express my feelings.
“Thank you. My husband worked really hard for it,” she mentioned Brody almost as if she wanted to provoke me.
“And then he married your friend. By the way, I didn’t know you were friends with the Alpha’s daughter that Brody was conducting business. with. Isn’t it an odd coincidence?” The way I asked that question was bound to provoke a response from Nora.
Her body flinched, but it was so subtle that I wondered why she was trying so hard to act like nothing was weird.
“Well, he really listens to me,” she replied.

“The girl who was so possessive that she wouldn’t even let her mate look. at someone else requested her husband to marry her best friend? What made you change so much?” I paused once I knew we were far from the mansion. The roads were so silent at this time of night.
“Time changes everything. You mature up,” she shrugged, looking around and taking deep breaths to inhale the fresh air.
“Is that so? Or maybe it’s because you didn’t want to get intimate with him because you weren’t over your fated mate?” I asked her directly this time, without beating around the bush. She gave me a harsh glare in response.
“You think I made him accept someone else so that he stays busy and doesn’t ask me to be intimate with him?” she questioned, and without hesitation, I shrugged, lifting my chin. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
But before I could be satisfied with the explanation we brothers had come up with, she broke my heart when she admitted, “Ryker, we have sex almost every day. He starts and ends the day with me, maybe has a moment in the middle with Janet, but I am always the main one.”
