264–Forced To Marry My Boyfriend

Nora:

“Don’t leave any of your belongings here. It will be hard for you to go. back and forth for your stuff.

His pack is a bit far from ours,” Lord Atwood said, making it clear where he stood on this matter.

He wanted me gone.

“You want me gone?” I wanted to hold his hand, but he had them. tightly clasped behind his back.

“Wait a minute. I think this is quite unfair. Kicking her out like she’s some criminal? Let her stay here

and finish her studies. I’m her boyfriend, and I’ll make sure she stays out of any trouble. I’ll keep her

protected,” Brody tried his best to convince them that forcing me to leave the pack wasn’t a wise

decision.

“Either you accept her and take her away, or we’ll have to find a new home for her,” Yuki declared,

making it clear that he wouldn’t back down. If they wanted me gone, I had to leave.

“No!” I stubbornly shook my head at their decision.

“What happened to the promise you made to my mother?” I asked Lord. Atwood, whose jaw

tightened as he was reminded of the promise he was now breaking.

“The promise is fulfilled because I did make you part of the family when you stayed here. Therefore,

we must request Brody to accept you and take you away. It will be like marrying you off.

turned to me, his eyes red with anger.

He was upset with me, and this was his way of punishing me.

“Besides, he doesn’t have to fulfill promises made to that monster’s wife or that woman who ruined

his family. Stop giving your mother so much importance; she was a whore too,” Yuki muttered under

his breath, but I couldn’t argue with him. He had already succeeded in getting me kicked out.

“But–I’m not ready for such a big change,” I pleaded, wanting to make eye contact with Lord

Atwood. However, he refused to even look my way.

“I will not stand here and let you kick her out,” Brody took a stand for me, causing Yuki to roll his

eyes before giving a nod as if he knew what needed to be done in that case.

“I guess we’ll have to find someone to marry her off to then,” Yuki shrugged, but I ran behind Brody,

remembering how much they mistreated me the last time they wanted to punish me.

“That’s too much. What has this poor girl done to any of you?” Brody almost raised his voice,

causing Yuki to give Lord Atwood a nod before he stepped closer and muttered.

“She’s been a nuisance since her arrival. From lying about being poisoned to nearly killing that

innocent mate of Alpha King Cain, she’s done a lot. We don’t want her around the brothers. We

don’t want her toxicity near them,” Yuki announced, sinking my heart into my chest.

“And she said she’s afraid of my son. My son will stay here, and his condition is that his wolf will

remain a bit different and more powerful than others. I wouldn’t want her constantly crying about

being afraid of

upset by my previous words.

“What I said was a lie,” I instantly backtracked. Daphne had already informed them she recovered

the footage, so there was no need for me to keep lying.

“You’re only saying this now because you’ve realized the weight of your words has come back to

haunt you,” Yuki, of course, was standing between us, blocking any chance of help I could get.

“So, it’s up to Brody now. Either leave her here, and she’ll be married off to some omega, or–he can

marry you and take you with him,” Yuki shrugged as if it was no big deal.

Did the brothers even know what they were planning to do to me?
