“They sent mean texts from my phone too,” Nash confirmed. It must have been Daphne. I remembered they had taken our phones.
“I received a text as well. It was about two months ago. She mentioned being pregnant and that Brody hadn’t taken her to the hospital,” I hissed, throwing my phone away in frustration.
“What? Why didn’t you tell us?” Nash groaned, visibly frustrated as he waited for eye contact from
1. ne.
“Turns out, April had already responded on my behalf. She told Nora it wasn’t my problem,” I muttered, anger bubbling up at the thought of seeing April again. We just got the data and turned out, those girls didn’t even leave Nora alone even after she left the pack.
“Damn it!” Cain yelled loudly.
“All this time, we thought we were protecting her,” he groaned, punching the air.
“No wonder Nora was upset with us. But I’m just a little confused about something,” Nash mused. I could tell by the way his eyes were changing colors that he had a wild thought.
“Why was Nora asking you for help? Does that mean things were rough for her from the start?” Nash’s logic was sound.
If she hadn’t been taken to the hospital even once, that would mean Brody had been manipulating her from the beginning.

“I knew it. I knew he was up to something. Every time she was alone with him, I wondered if he was secretly recording her. That’s why I tore apart that teddy bear he gave her and even turned her room upside down. I was looking for a camera; I just had a feeling he was not at all sincere with her,” I grunted under my breath, hating the fact that I was so close to discovering his true colors, yet he was always one step ahead. In the end, we concluded she would be safe in his pack.
“Was the pregnancy even planned?” Cain’s whisper captured our
attention.
“What if he forced himself on her?” he continued, sending shivers down
our spines.
This was getting out of hand. There was only one thing we could do now.
“We need to go there,” I muttered, nodding slightly as I devised a solid strategy to catch Brody in the act.
“Silas texted me,” Nash said as he showed us his phone screen.
“He says Nora is scared because Brody has threatened to hurt her child if any of us found out about the baby. He also has the remote control for the anklet she’s wearing,” Nash groaned, and I felt the same way.
All this time, Nora had only pretended to be happy.
For so many months, I wondered how she must have dealt with all this alone. She was just a teenager, helpless and lonely. Gosh!
“I’m going to make Brody an example for everyone who ever thinks about hurting Nora again,” I said, clenching my fists, a dry gulp running down my throat.
“Let’s go then. It’s time we take her back,” Cain declared, ready to go to war with Brody.

We all nodded and agreed to meet at the exit in exactly one hour. We prepared thoroughly, grabbing weapons and even poisons just in case.

It was clear that Brody wouldn’t let us take Nora away without a fight, so we were ready for it.
After we were all packed, we left the mansion to drive to Brody’s pack. We were all drowning in emotions.
“The fact that she didn’t tell us–again–ugh!” Nash punched the passenger seat, making Cain jump and turn around to glare at him.
“You know what?” Cain said, bobbing his head. “I’ll adopt her baby. She doesn’t have to stay with Brody for that.” Of course, he could talk about it openly, but that wasn’t the case with us.
However, my father was well aware of my intentions. I had not been secretive until Nora was gone.
“Why you?” Nash hissed from the backseat. I didn’t argue; I wasn’t keen on using words. I would steal her from under their noses, and they wouldn’t even know.
“What do you mean? Who else would do it then?” There was a challenge
in Cain’s voice.
“Her mate,” Nash grunted under his breath, making the tension in my muscles tighten.
Nora had felt the mate bond with all three of us. That left Silas out of the equation, but if my calculations were correct, she must have felt the mate bond with him as well.
The car ride with the two was difficult. We were all equally worried, but Cain and Nash wouldn’t stop bickering. We needed to stay united to help Nora.

Finally, after hours of painful torture from my brothers, we arrived. We got out to meet up with the guards, who informed us that everyone had left for a special dinner.
I believed it was a celebratory dinner for Clara and Silas.

That’s when my eyes landed on a car driving past us. A woman was
lap. It was just a brief glance, and I was so busy recognizing the woman that I didn’t pay full attention to what she was holding.
“That’s the head maid, Mrs. Fisher,” I pointed at the car, making my brothers follow my gaze.
“That means no one is in the mansion,” Cain concluded.
“Right, let’s go explore,” I clicked my tongue, determination evident in my voice.
