Nora:

I returned to my room after Mr. Hues argued way too much. I didn’t want to stand there and force

everyone to send me back for a few days out of spite. I couldn’t understand what those few days

would accomplish for him.

Did he think I would go back and stay there? Didn’t Janet tell him I have babies here and there’s a

high possibility Brody wouldn’t even let me take them with me?

‘I don’t feel right about this situation,‘ Akira complained while I gently rocked Roman in my arms. I

was going back and forth between my kids. I didn’t want any of them to be alone. However, Roman

was alone. The others were with their brothers, and it upset me so much for my little baby. My sons

needed to be with each other. The initial bond is very important and Roman was robbed of it all.

‘Do you think Brody will send us back?‘ I wasn’t sure why he would risk it. I could go back, gain the

brothers‘ support, and potentially come back to attack Brody. But then again, Brody can always

threaten me with the life of my babies. I will be sitting far away, unable to reach my kids, so there is

no way I will risk anything.

It was as if my queries were answered when the door opened and Brody appeared before me. He

looked pretty sad and guilty.

“What is it? You’re not sending me back, are you?” I put my son down to face Brody.

knew he was here to send me back.

“We don’t have a choice. They are pretty adamant about asking for you to come back and help them

with that case,” he explained, sounding like an idiot to believe that’s why they wanted me back.

They wanted information from me. They knew they didn’t get to spend much time with me and get to

know much about the battles and the arena. Obviously, in their pack, they could create the same

environment to fool me. I knew I wouldn’t break, but my issue wasn’t just going through those few

days with them. It was that I didn’t want to leave my babies behind.

“So you’re sending me away from my children?” I placed my hands on my waist, keeping my eyes

on his face.

Brody’s expression showed a mix of frustration and helplessness. “Wow, you only talk about these

kids,” he clicked his tongue dismissively. “Maybe it would sound better if you mentioned me once in

a while too?” He pouted, as if he genuinely thought that would sway me.

“Brody! I am not leaving my kids behind. Either you let them come with me or I’m not going,” I said

firmly, meeting his gaze.

“Why? Why are you being so stubborn? It’s not like you can take care of your babies while you’re on

a mission with the alpha king brothers. Or are you suggesting you don’t trust me to take care of

them while you’re gone?” Janet chimed in with a sneer, clearly eager to make things worse.

I took a deep breath, stretching my neck back to calm my nerves before I snapped at her. She

hissed back at me, her animosity clear.

“Does my existence bother you so much?” I raised an eyebrow at her.

“Janet, go back to your room. I’ll handle this,” Brody said, his tone commanding. Janet should have

taken that as a cue to leave, but she

shook her head, stubbornly staying put.

“She gives you a hard time. You don’t even know how to deal with her. And by the way, why would

he let you take the babies with you? Once you have them all with you, there’s no way you would

come back. He’s not that idiotic, right Brody?” Janet turned to him, her voice dripping with scorn.

Brody seemed lost in thought, clearly torn.

“Are you serious? See, this is why you need me by your side,” Janet said triumphantly, prompting a

secret smile from Brody. I stood there with my arms folded, realizing there was no way he would let

me take the babies with me.

“I’m not going,” I said, cutting through their moment of glee.

“Well then,” Janet stepped closer, staring me down, “forget about seeing your babies ever again.”

Her threat made me clench my jaw. She quickly retreated behind Brody, clearly knowing she’d

crossed a line.

“She’s not wrong, Nora!” Brody quickly reached for the remote controller, a sign that he was ready to

defend himself if necessary. “Just go, help them out, and come back.”

His tone was final, and the weight of his words was unmistakable. The situation was bleak, but it

was clear that he was not going to relent.
