268–Offering Him My Body 
Nora: 
“What the fuck do you think you’re doing?” he instantly jumped off his stool, grabbing a shirt and putting it on. A weird shiver ran down my spine. Did he think I was doing this to cause trouble for him? Or maybe to have someone catch us together so I could stay here? 
No, I would never play games with them. They should have known this by now. 
“I just want to talk,” I whispered because the way he aggressively walked toward me and grabbed my wrist made me fear he would kick me out without listening to me. I swiftly freed my arm and ran behind the big table near the window. 
“What the heck is this? What kind of childish behavior is this, Nora?” he continued to grunt and groan, trying to catch me. 
“I just want to talk. Please! Don’t make me go away.” I didn’t know why I was resisting so hard. It’s not like they were sending me back. home. So then why? 
Why was my body and mind so resistant to leaving them? Was my wolf fearful that she might never feel the presence of her mates if we left the pack?

“Fucking hell, Nora. We already talked about it. And the way you a acting is making me believe we are making the right decision. You have lost your mind entirely. Look at yourself, acting like a whore, throwing yourself at your brothers and asking them to stop you from leaving with your boyfriend,” he aggressively muttered, his hand

gestures raw and forceful. 
“I will behave. That’s what I wanted to say to you. I will behave from now on and will even be nice to your mates. All of your mates. I won’t even bother you. In fact—if you want–” I paused when he raised his brow, waiting to see what I was going to say next. 
I didn’t want to say it, but how else could I convince him? 
“You can do whatever you want with my body, and I won’t complain.” Those words came out in a dying whisper from my lips. 
Instead of looking intrigued like he usually did whenever he talked about my body, he seemed disgusted this time. 

That wasn’t a good thing. He was supposed to be happy. 
“I won’t even ask for acceptance. In fact, nobody would know. You can do everything—with my body. Have sex–use–” I stopped when he threw the brush at me from across the table, hitting me right on my chin. 
“Ouch!” As I lost my train of thought, he ran around the table to grab 

me. 

“Have you gone mad? You think I’m some bastard who would want a sex toy? If that’s what I wanted, I could get sex every day. What makes you think your body is something I would want? I told you, it’s not worth it. Your body is not worth all the trouble I’ve gone through. Why can’t you just fucking get it?” he shook my body, muttering those words in my face. 
“But–” I couldn’t say anything else since he would shake me into 
silence.

“The fact that you think I’m such a manwhore just saddens me. This is why you need to leave, Nora. Leave this place while you still have some dignity left. Your body is not a toy that I want to use,” he hissed, finally pushing me back and letting me go. 
“Now go!” he yelled, and when I didn’t move, he grasped my arm again. and started dragging me towards the door. 
“I’m sick and tired of finding you in every corner of my home, looking at me. I don’t want your attention. Do you have any idea if I had left. any other girl like this after sleeping with her and dating her friend, she would have been so angry and chosen her self–esteem? But you surprised me. You don’t even fucking love yourself. Grow some spine, Nora!” he opened the door while spitting out the most painful words, then shoved me out. Once he ensured I was out, he locked the door so I couldn’t get back inside. 
I stood outside, rubbing my palms and hyperventilating. 
This was not right. 
This shouldn’t have happened. 
I just need to stay here. 
I turned around and spotted Silas coming upstairs with a slice of pizza in his hand, enjoying some video on his phone. The fact that they didn‘ t even appear distraught at my departure was killing me.
