Nora:
“I am asking you something,” Janet tried grabbing my arm to make me turn and face her. But I quickly shrugged her hand off and glared at her for touching me without my permission.
“I am not going to answer any of your questions, do you get it?” I shot her a look–a look that should have been enough for her to back off and not bother me again.
“Nora-” she clicked her tongue with a hint of a smirk playing on her lips. “Maybe you are forgetting something. Let me ask you a question–how is Roman?” She lifted her head high, making direct eye contact with me as she mentioned my son. It was her way of reminding me that my child was still in their custody and that I should be very careful while dealing with
them.
The silence between us grew thick as we stood there, locked in a heated stare. The tension was unbearable, each passing second fueling the rage simmering inside me. Without thinking, I lunged forward, wrapping my hand around her throat and shoving her hard against the wall. The impact was sharp, and for a split second, her eyes widened with shock–she hadn‘ t seen it coming.
“What are-” she choked, her words strangled as she struggled to gasp for air, trying to make sense of what was happening.
I leaned in closer, my breath hot with fury. “What were you saying?” I hissed, my grip tightening around her neck. “You were going to threaten my baby, weren’t you? Try it now–go on, say it again. I dare you.”

The anger inside me was a storm, violent and uncontroll
urging my fingers to squeeze harder. I just wanted to kill her in that moment. I could feel the power rushing through me, even with the silver anklet meant to suppress Akira. For the first time, Janet was witnessing what I was truly capable of–and it terrified her.
Her eyes darted around in panic as her breath came in shallow, broken gasps. “Brody-” she wheezed, barely able to force out his name, her voice now just a wisp of air. What a cowardly bitch!
I sneered, my voice dripping with disdain. “Calling for him now? What’s the matter, Janet? Can’t fight me on your own?” I spat the words into her face.
And then, before I could react, I felt the presence of Alpha Brody. My yelling at her got his attention. He stormed into the room with lightning speed, grabbing my wrist in a tight grip and yanking my hand away from Janet’s neck with a force that sent me stumbling backward.
Janet collapsed into his arms, trembling as she let out a pitiful sob. She clung to him like a frightened child, tears streaming down her face–an act that only deepened my disgust. She wasn’t the helpless, miserable kitten she pretended to be. I was pretty sure even Brody knew she wasn’t at all innocent.
Brody’s eyes, however, were locked on me, his glare seething with barely contained rage. His frustration only grew after I had put my hands on his beloved Janet.
“What do you think you were doing?” he snarled, his grip tightening around her body.
“If she threatens my child’s life, I will threaten hers,” I replied without any guilt.
If I got the chance to do it again, I would do it over and over.

“My baby!” I corrected him, but he ignored me and kept glaring at her for
answers.
“She was being rude. You know she hit Mrs. Fisher?” Janet adopted her gentle and meek tone now that she was being confronted by Brody.
“You were threatening Nora for Mrs. Fisher? Since when did you care Fisher? Since when did you care about her?” Brody pushed her back, making her shift her gaze to see my reaction before looking back at him.
“You are being rude to me in front of her,” Janet stomped her foot and walked away.
Now that it was just Brody and me, I faced him, confronting him directly.
“You’ve been spending time with Roman?” I asked, feeling uneasy about him being around my and Ryker’s baby. I knew how much Brody hated Ryker, so his kindness towards Ryker’s son didn’t make sense. But how would he even know Roman was Ryker’s child?
“Okay? I thought you would be grateful,” he slipped his hands into his pockets, his eyes looking determined.
“No, I never want you around my children,” I didn’t hesitate to hide it. It should have been clear to him that I didn’t want my children near him. What reason could he have for choosing Roman out of the four?
“He was crying a lot, and I discovered he might be missing you. So what’s wrong with me giving him some love?” He shrugged, obviously overlooking my concerns.
“Fine. But why did you change the lock?” I folded my arms over my chest, trying to look him in the eye confidently as I questioned him. But deep

“Oh that-” and with that, an evil smirk spread across his lips, “You will need to spend a night with me.”
