When they got to the comm, Ales went into the bathroom in wash up while Nora made his bed. 

pot then, Alex’s phone screen lit up, and a melodious ringtone filled the room, 

Nova glanced at it and noticed the caller ID: 

“Aunt Linda” 

Alex rushed out of the bathroom, his face still lathered with soap, and grabbed the phone. He looked at Mora nervously and warily, as though afraid she might hang up the call. 

I had been months since Alex had shown any desire to connect with her, yet he spent long stretches talking to Linda every day. 

Nora Inwered her gaze, masking the heartbreak that flickered in her eyes. 

She had finished tidying the room and was crady to leave. Before stepping out, she instructed gently, “Don’t look at your phone for too long. It’s bad for your eyes. Go to bed eatly, okay?” 

Alex’s tone was impatient as he pushed her toward the door and muttered under his breath. “Stop being so nagry. Aunt Linda never nags like this Knowing that his mom was free tomorrow, he needed to explain to Aunt Linda that they wouldn’t be able to meet. The thought of Linda being disappointed made Alex feel even more annoyed with Nora. 

In his mind, it was all “her” fault. 

If only she weren’t around, he’d be able to go out with Aunt Linda tomorrow! 

As soon as Nora left the room, Alex locked the door. 

From behind the locked door, his excited voice carried faintly into the hallway. “Aunt Linda, sorry I took so long to call you back. My mom was nagging again 

Nora didn’t linger to listen to Alex bad–mouth her to Linda 

She chose not to dwell on it or let it bother her. 

Returning to her room, Nora took a shower. Afterward, seeing that it wasn’t too late, she turned on her computer and began organizing the information she had recently compiled.

Time passed, and her eyes grew sore from staring at the screen. Blinking to ease the strain, she finally completed her 

The clock in the corner of her screen read *11:30 PM“. 

Yet Arnold still hadn’t returned. 

Despite being MATES, Arnold had always resisted coming near her. 

For years, he had believed that her bond with him was some kind of ploy. Because of this, he actively resisted the MATE connection and flat out rejected her. 

Through tireless effort, Nora had managed to soften Arnold’s attitude over the years. Their relationship had slowly started to improve.

But then Linda entered the

After that, Arnold barely even touched her 

At first, Nora would stay up night after night, waiting for Arnold to return, her eyes reddened and weary as dawn broke, but that familiar figure never appeared.

Eventually, she realized Arnold was deliberately avoiding her. 

Now, she didn’t want to wait anymore. 

Shaking off those thoughts, Nora went downstairs to get herself a glass of ice water before bed. 

Just as she reached the 

kitchen, voices drifted from the hallway, 

“Why are you still smoking here at this late hour? Is it because Nora’s in the room, and you don’t want to go back? 

It was Josiah’s voice. 

Arnold stood across from her, a lit cigarette in his hand, remaining silent. 

From her vantage point, under the dims hacklight. Nora couldn’t see his expression. 

Josiah continued,

No graduated from one of the best colleges in the werewolf world, studied abroad in the human world, speaks a foreign language fluently like Nora, and has been groomed to manage both the pack and her family since she was young. She’s practically a Luna made for you.” 

“But-“Josiah paused for emphasis. “The Snow Moon Pack is too weak compared to Silver Moon. Her origins don’t match yours, Arnold. You deserve better.” 

Arnold exhaled smoke and replied calmly. “I know what kind of woman I want.” 

Josiah frowned. Though she despised Nora, she didn’t fully approve of Linda becoming Lana either. 

In her mind, no woman under the sun was worthy of Arnoki. 

She wanted to press further but caught the flash of displeasure in Arnold’s eyes and decided to stop. 

“You’re so protective of her that you won’t even let me say a word. Fine. I’ll stop talking. Whatever.”
