355–That Night With Silas!

Nora:

Nash took things too far when he asked me to move back with them. In fact, he even made a statement that he thought my life still revolved around him and that is why I was with Brody? huh! and his apology! Just one sentence, and he thought I would forget all about their actions?

I felt anger simmer for as long as I sat in front of him. But I didn’t lose my composure and kept a smile on my lips, determined not to give him the satisfaction of seeing me suffer because of them any longer.

I had to step away and went straight to the kitchen where Mrs. Fisher and the other maids were working. The minute they saw me, they gasped but then began eyeing me with disdain.

“Look at her, she didn’t miss the chance to dress up,” a maid whispered from the side. I turned to face her, and her expression darkened as she met my glare.

“When have I ever come out naked?” I raised my brown, sarcastically giving her a closed lip smile.

“Say it to my face,” I insisted, my eyes flashing with threat.

As expected, she looked down and fidgeted nervously with her fingers. She wouldn’t dare confront me, not after seeing me take down a mutant monster from the woods.

“I’m sorry,” she quickly apologized and turned back to the dishes.

“Don’t be afraid of her-” Of course, Mrs. Fisher would use my children against me, but before she could, someone’s arrival interrupted her.

“Why wouldn’t they? She is the Luna of the pack, right?” I recognized the voice but didn’t turn around to face him. Instead, I closed my eyes briefly and took a deep breath.

“Alpha King Silas,” Mrs. Fisher must have bowed so low that her face was nearly in the dirt.

“Everyone, out! I need to speak to Nora,” he ordered, and my body tensed

further at his command. I didn’t want to be left alone with him but I further at his command.

couldn’t protest visibly.

I knew I had to turn around, so I did and watched as Silas observed the maids leaving. Once they were gone, he turned to me, and I straightened my back and gave him a confident smile.

“Nora!” His voice softened, reminding me of the night we were together before he fled the pack like a coward.

“Hi, wow! You’ve let your hair grow so much?” I acted nonchalant, causing him to momentarily lose his composure. He touched his hair and smiled before he quickly gulped to drag himself back to

reality.

“Huh?” He shook his head, then gulped. “I need to talk to you.”

“Sure, we’re talking,” I giggled at his awkwardness, tilting my head and maintaining eye contact.

I’ve learned how to mask my true feelings. I could be smiling on the surface, but deep down, I was filled with anger and hatred for the person in front of me. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

“That night when we felt the mate bond-” Before he could delve into that topic, I knew I had to cut him off. He had no right to come back and bring up that subject after being told I was happily married now.

And that too after so many months. He couldn’t have stayed a day or a few

hours to tell me he had to leave? He just fled and next time we met, he didn’t even apologize.

“What night?” I gave him a closed–lip smile. “You must have dreamed about it. I have only one mate, and that is a chosen mate–Brody.” The shrug of my shoulders caught his eye, and he frowned.

“Okay, I get it. You’re angry with me. But I had to leave because-” I cut him off again.

It was so satisfying to frustrate others, especially when they had once enjoyed hurting you.

“Because of the pack’s emergency, Silas! I understand. I now take care of a pack myself, so I know how important these things are,” my casual tone seemed to intensify his frown.

He looked almost angry, which only fueled my irritation.

“What are you doing? Do you think I don’t understand that you’re trying to act cool just to hurt my feelings?” His audacity to mention feelings after ghosting me for months was astounding.

“Huh? Silas, calm down. Look, I was upset in the past, I won’t lie about that. But why are you bringing it up now? I’m happy here,” I managed to make him hurt even more. And honestly, it felt so good.

The hurt in their eyes was because I was happy with someone else. I never imagined I’d have the opportunity to make him jealous. It was like a task I hadn’t even added to my bucket list.

I thought I would never get to enjoy this day. But now I had to face the others too and do the same to them as well.
