Tasting 309

309–The Heartless Men

Nora:

However, the minute I twisted my ring in my finger, I felt like a surge of energy through my body that

compelled me into fixing the ring. quickly. I am pregnant and a transition would kill my child inside

me.

After days, Brody sent his Royal Gamma to bring me to him. He opened the door and stood before

me with a look that suggested he would devour me alive if given the chance.

“Pathetic,” he sneered, hissing at the sight of me. “This is absurd, adultery. What you’ve done is

worse than anything. You’re a

disgusting woman,” he continued as I sat with my bag against the wall and my knees pulled up to

my chest.

“Now, what are you sitting here thinking?” he groaned loudly, slamming his fist against the door.

“I’m wondering what you would do if it were your daughter in my place,” I raised my head and

watched his face turn bitter. Even the idea of it angered him.

“My daughter would never do that. And if any woman from my family did, she would not see the light

of day,” he snapped angrily. Of course he would kill them. It actually gave me the idea of what they

might have prepared for me as well. I bobbed my head as I tried

understanding my condition.

“And what would you do to your son if he impregnated a woman and then abandoned her?” I asked,

though I knew whatever they said would be a lie unless they were in my shoes.

“He would take responsibility if he were my son,” he replied with at prideful smirk, one that made it

clear he would never act that way.

“Now get up. You’re going to be presented before the Alpha as we decide what should be done with

you,” he grabbed my arm and forced me to my feet.

I didn’t resist. I knew they would make me do it anyway.

I didn’t raise my head all this time and kept walking behind him. I could tell the maids were talking

about me as I passed by them. We entered this one room where I expected to have a bunch of

people awaiting me. But there weren’t.

Brody sat in his chair, rubbing his temples, while his Royal Gamma and Royal Beta glared at me

with disdain.

“I have planned something.” Brody muttered, even refusing to look at me. I was now maybe a

disgusting creature to him.

“I want to know how we can arrange the abortion,” Brody sighed, lifting his gaze from the floor.

The small room where they held the trial contained only these three. individuals: Royal Gamma and

Royal Beta.

But it was his words that cut deep through my heart.

“I don’t think you’re asking the right question. You should be inquiring about where we will bury her,

leaving both her and her baby to die underground,” Royal Beta hissed.

My fists clenched, my eyes dry from tears. It had been two days since. they had finally released me.

I had been locked in that bathroom without any care.

“Are you insane? I cannot kill her,” Brody instantly retorted, “just the baby!” He glanced at me before

turning his face away.

“You should not be concerned about her. She had the audacity to bring that child here while the

father is enjoying himself in his large pack. The Alpha King should not have an heir, especially one

that we need to care for,” Royal Gamma spat.

My heart fluttered in my chest.

“Don’t you have anything to say?” Royal Beta asked, wrinkling his nose as he looked my way.

“This is not the Alpha king’s baby. And I am not going to allow anyone to harm my baby,” I said,

placing a hand on my belly and then lifting my eyes to see Brody clench his jaw.

“This! You love this pathetic creature? She slept around with her stepbrothers and got pregnant with

that devil’s child, and now she wants to keep it? And you still love her?” Royal Gamma slammed his

fist against the table, startling me slightly.

No matter how many times I tell them I am not pregnant with who used to be my Stepbrothers, they

wouldn’t believe me.

“I tried to give you a good deal but you would rather use me and betray me than to marry me.” he

sounded so angry. The fact that he didn’t think me giving away my baby would hurt me just shocked

me.

“So it’s decided. We will proceed with the abortion, and then we will see what she can do to earn my

forgiveness,” Brody surprised me with his cold–heartedness and hatred toward my stepbrothers.

So, even after he gets rid of my baby, will he make me accept him? Or earn his forgiveness.
