Silas:

I had frozen in my steps, but she kept speaking in her angelic tone.

The muffled sound of her voice floated down the hallway, soft and sweet, as she cooed to someone. I was trembling from the shock, frowning as I strained to listen. “You’re such a handsome little boy, aren’t you?” she whispered, her tone so tender that it stirred something deep in my chest.

A baby?

Nora didn’t have a baby… did she? My heart thudded as I edged closer to the half–open door, my breath catching in my throat. Through the crack, I saw her sitting on the bed, cradling a little baby, her face glowing with a softness I hadn’t seen in the last few months.

My stomach twisted as I realized the baby was hers. Her baby. She’d hidden this from everyone.

From me.

I pressed my hand to the doorframe to steady myself, fighting against the disbelief that rushed through me. It had to be Brody’s child. It had to be. But I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the infant, wondering, despite myself, if there was some part of this story that wasn’t what it seemed.

It can’t be Brody’s? Or was he the reason she couldn’t leave Brody?

“Nora!” I called her name, and her humming ceased. I could honestly feel the dread in her eyes as she raised them to look at me.

Her posture distorted, her eyes wide like never before. She seemed frozen Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“What are you doing here?” she asked, instantly getting up and placing the baby in the bassinet before rushing toward me.

I wanted to take a look at the child, but she placed both her hands on my chest and started pushing me out of the room.

“You have a child? Why didn’t you tell me? Whose child is this?” I was at a breaking point, my voice coming out in whimpers.

“Silas, please, you need to leave.” The fear in her voice did not help her

case.

Why would she be so afraid of me finding out about her baby?

Why would it frighten her so much?

“You need to tell me everything. Why didn’t you bring such a small baby with you to our pack? Did he make you leave him behind?” I grabbed her wrists to stop her from pushing me out of the room and hiding the secret.

“Listen to me. If you don’t leave and act like you don’t know about this baby, Brody will make me regret it,” this was the first time Nora had shown so many emotions. Tears streamed down her face.

“He wouldn’t dare.” So, we were right all along. That jerk had done something to her.

Did he get her pregnant by force?

“I am going to carry him and walk you out of here.” As I tried to walk past her, she scratched my chest and pushed me back, shocking me.

“You don’t get it, okay? Just listen to me now and leave. Please don’t ask anyone any questions. I swear to find a way to explain to you what is

going on. But please—if you don’t want to hurt me anymore—” she begged, shocking me with the stark contrast to her behavior earlier.

“Please,” she insisted. I nodded my head.

“I don’t want to hurt you. But I will listen to what you tell me,” I told her before I sped out because the longer I stayed in that room, the more she cried.

It broke me entirely to see her like that.

I rushed out and connected a call to my brothers.

They had been waiting for me to inform them about Nora’s condition. Well, that was not what they had expected.

“Ryker!” The minute he answered the call, I spoke in heavy breaths.

“Hey, are you okay?” I heard Nash speak up, making me realize they were all so worried that they had put Ryker’s phone on speaker.

“We were right. That asshole messed her up,” I grunted, pacing around the garden and making sure nobody was listening in on my conversation.

“What do you mean? Tell me, what is it?” Cain sounded like he was ready to attack Brody’s pack at any moment.

“Silas, enough with this suspense,” Ryker grunted at me.

“I found Nora with a baby. She has given birth, and her baby is in Brody’s cage. I’m pretty sure that’s what it is; otherwise, why would she hide it from us?” I yammered, not even letting my brothers express their shock at the news.

“What?” they all said in unison.

“When she realized I had caught her, she cried and begged me not to tell anyone, or else Brody would make her suffer. Isn’t that enough to conclude that asshole is holding her baby in order to control her?” I was in so much pain that I felt like I would break down.

“I’m going to kill that Brody,” Cain yelled from the other side.

I had to warn them not to tell anyone. After I calmed my breaths, I detailed the whole interaction to them before I watched Clara, Brody, and

Rollo arrive.

They were shocked to see me, but then Clara ran toward me, spreading her arms. I made direct eye contact with Brody while letting her hug me.

Oh, the game had begun now.
