“If you need anything, don’t ask for it. Alpha Brody has made it clear that your every wish and demand must first pass through him. He doesn’t seem kind enough to fulfill any of them anyway, so save it,” Mrs. Fisher, who had been so nice when I first arrived, hissed at me. With her hand on her waist, she rolled her eyes, speaking bitterly.

“Can you please step aside? I need to have a word with her,” Clara interrupted, clearly coming back to mock me but in the presence of the guards outside this time.

I didn’t have the strength for anything. I sat on the bed, staring blankly at the empty wall before me.

“Sure,” Mrs. Fisher wouldn’t dare be rude to Clara because of the title

her brother held.

I’ve been there before. My stepbrothers were alpha kings. When they announced my relationship with them, many began to treat me with respect but hated me behind my back.

“So, welcome back,” Clara stepped in, a smirk on her lips as she leaned against the wall.

“I am willing to start over. Last time, you were pretty defensive so I couldn’t speak to you,” I didn’t get what made her think now she was welcomed but I let her speak.

“When I heard you wanted to leave, I figured you’d end up back here, but I didn’t think it would be so soon and in this state,” she kept

mocking, scoffing at the same time.

“By the way, what happened? Who knocked you over?” she tried to whisper. “Come on, you can share it with me. You have to tell someone. There’s no way you can live with so many secrets all by yourself,” she clicked her tongue, trying to sound empathetic.

“Ahh! That silence. You’re surely stubborn. But I must say, I didn’t expect you to be such a whore too,” the moment she said that and turned to glare at her, she raised her brow, looking offended. Of course, she was back to say it again.

“Be careful of your actions, Nora. You are not loved anymore, neither by your stepbrothers nor by the alpha of our pack. So you better behave now,” she wagged her finger in my face as a threat before stepping back and eventually leaving the room.

I remained alone until Mr. Rollo returned with a guard and sat on the ground. He gestured at me to lift my left leg so he could place the

anklet around it.

There was an annoyed look on his face as he said, “Come on. I don’t have all day for this.”

I nodded and straightened my leg, almost hitting him in the chest. He closed his eyes and grunted but didn’t bring it up, then wrapped the anklet around my foot.

“Remember, you are not supposed to be around the elites,” he

mentioned, referring to the alpha, royal beta, royal gamma of the pack, and the other respected warriors.

“What about my doctor visit? I’d like to have a checkup,” I said, since I had no idea how to take care of myself during this pregnancy, I had to ask for a doctor who could do a routine checkup on me.

My baby was the reason why I was being so nice and humble now. Or else, I felt so free when not desiring to please everyone.

Rollo straightened his back and then chuckled in disbelief. “You’re not a guest here, and you’re not birthing some alpha’s child. You’re carrying a bastard child who, God forbid, could be the offspring of a rogue or an already mated and married omega. So don’t make requests. Just be grateful that you’re even allowed to carry that child,” he warned. me, making it clear how miserable my pregnancy was going to be.

Before leaving, he paused one more time to say, “There will be not celebrations for you, Miss Nora. You are no longer loved or cherished by our alpha. There will be no baby carts or toys either. Get used to this new life of yours, and be thankful for what little you’re getting,” he finished and stormed out of the room.

I nodded to myself, agreeing with his words. I won’t get anything. anymore. But did he really think that’s what I was worried about?

My baby’s life is what I’m most concerned about. My lap could be his bassinet, and my words and love will be his toys.

I’ll show all these people that I’m not as weak as they think I am. I was already over my mates and Brody’s friendship, now I had to survive. this pregnancy and let Akira get ready to enjoy her strength and use it against the mutant monsters.
