Reclaiming Her Crown, One Step At A Time – Sneak Peek
“Noelle, get down on your knees and say sorry to Willa right now!”
A man’s voice rang out, sharp and cold, echoing across the spacious living room.
Noelle Moss stood frozen in the center of the room, her long lashes lowered as she tightened her grip on the voice recorder tucked inside her pocket. Her eyes slowly lifted toward the man on the sofa—her third brother, Gerard Moss. Next to him sat Willa Moss, the adopted daughter of the Moss family. She wasn’t even related to them by blood.
Yet Noelle was being told by her own brother to kneel down and apologize to Willa.
“You shoved Willa down the stairs on purpose! How could you be so cruel? You’re utterly disgusting! I refuse to acknowledge someone like you as my sister!” Gerard snapped.
Utterly disgusting?
Noelle’s lashes quivered faintly as she fought to suppress the tight, aching pressure in her chest. “I didn’t—”
Before she could finish, Gerard grabbed a glass from the table and hurled it at her.
“How dare you talk back!”

The glass hit her foot, then shattered on the floor into countless fragments.
Noelle’s delicate foot turned red and began to swell. Thin slivers of glass sliced across her smooth leg, leaving trails of bright red blood.
But Noelle didn’t flinch. She stood still, as though none of it hurt.
This wasn’t the first time Gerard had shouted at her—or hurt her.
“Gerard, please… Don’t be so harsh on Noelle,” Willa said quickly, her voice light and gentle. “She didn’t push me on purpose. It wasn’t her fault. It was just an accident. Really—it was my own fault.”
Gerard’s heart softened at her words. “Why are you still defending her, Willa? Have you thought about what would’ve happened if you ended up with a scar? You’re a girl. That’s not something to take lightly!”
“But Gerard…”
“That’s enough. Stop defending her. Come closer—let me see if you’re hurt.”
“I’m fine, Gerard. It’s nothing…”
Watching them play out their familial roles, Noelle felt a deep, draining weariness settle over her.
