330–Now Get Over It

Nora:

“Did you even hear what I said?” he spoke softly, his hands in his pockets and still leaning to the side when I ignored him.

“I did,” I replied, focusing on folding the little blankets of my babies that I was planning to wash after he left.

“You will need to speak to them so they don’t just show up at my pack’s door,” he said, making me frown in bewilderment.

“Why would they come here?” It had been so long that I couldn’t even remember my last interaction with them. Did I speak to them? Did we communicate through messages? I had forgotten all about everyone.

“It seems they have suddenly remembered that their stepsister is living here,” he scoffed, clearly replaceing it amusing that they had appeared out of nowhere.

“Well, they’re mistaken because I am not their stepsister, remember?” I gave him a closed–lip smile. “And as for talking to them, I really don’t have time to fulfill some alpha kings‘ wishes.” I didn’t want to return to that situation. Time had passed, and my desire to be loved had died. I love myself and my babies, and that is the only love I want.

The issue isn’t even that I’m mad at them, I have moved past that phase.

The problem is that I am over them. I don’t feel the same way towards any of them like I used to.

“But you will still have to speak to them and reassure them that you are happy here,” Brody’s voice turned a little harsh when I kept avoiding speaking to them.

“Remember, one of your babies is still with me,” he said calmly, while making that threat in the most composed way. He pulled out his phone and dialed a number while I kept glaring at him for using my son to blackmail me.

“Hello, Nash! You’ve been calling me nonstop,” he started whispering, but hearing Nash’s name sent chills up my spine. I closed my eyes and recalled the last interaction I had with him. It was when he had suggested I should be kicked out. And then I remembered that rooftop encounter when he had been so brutal to me.

I swiftly opened my eyes and grunted as I watched Brody hold the phone up for me.

Without breaking eye contact with Brody, I muttered, “Baby, can you please take care of the call? I’m kind of busy here,” making sure Nash heard me.

Even Brody was shocked when I said words that would give the impression that Brody and I were still together.

“What? Why are you looking at me like that? Do you not know I do whatever I please? So take care of the call, I’m busy!” I repeated myself, this time in a much harsher tone.

“Your brother wants to talk to you,” Brody uttered, seemingly lost.

“My brother? I don’t have any. Brody, can you please do as I asked you?” Just as I watched him smile and bring the phone closer to his ear, I added, “And come to bed soon. I’m waiting for you.”

His smirk faded, and he reluctantly attended to the phone again.

“Sorry, Nash, seems like she is very busy,” Brody didn’t miss the chance to get back at Nash for the way he used to treat me when he would visit their mansion.

Well, I didn’t care. They could fight all they wanted. I didn’t want them to come back or enter my life again.

“Of course she’s with me. You guys made us accept each other when kicking her out of the pack,” Brody was talking on the phone, and I was getting the gist of what it was about. I didn’t want to hear all that. It was surprising to me that they were still stuck on past issues.

“Bye,” Brody hung up and sighed in relief.

“You have no idea how great I feel after hearing him almost lose his temper,” he said, but his words didn’t make sense to me. Nash wouldn’t care, and if he suddenly did after so long, I didn’t care.

“You know, it felt so strange when you said you were waiting for me in bed. Janet and Clara said those things, and even today Janet asked me to be intimate with her, but I never got excited,” he sat down on the bed, but his smile vanished when I wrinkled my nose in disgust.

“Well, it was just a lie. You should go back to Janet and fulfill her desires,” I quickly slipped away from him, shaking my head in disbelief.

“You don’t feel anything for me?” The question he asked really stunned me. The fact that he still thought I would have something positive to say about him made me smile for him.

His smile faded, probably thinking I was going to say something sweet.
