Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 104:

Remembering how the Fox Alliance had nearly captured Norah the last time, Kathy’s grip tightened in frustration. They had failed miserably, unable to apprehend Norah and torture her since then.

Exhausted, Kathy returned to Carter Manor, only to find Derek, alongside Sharon and Juliana, wearing somber expressions. Overwhelmed, Kathy silently moved to the center of the living room.

Juliana commanded sharply, “Kneel!”
