Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates

190–Finding My Second Chance Mate

Brody:

The entire situation escalated at school today. It really bothered me when Lord Atwood raised his voice and spoke disrespectfully to me in the office. I grunted as I kept driving back home.

“All because of April,” I muttered under my breath. That whole mess happened because of her. There’s no way she didn’t play a game with Nora. I knew that much. Once I arrived home after spending the day working on some stuff, I found Natalya and April in the living room with a bunch of snacks scattered around and a TV playing. Both were engrossed in their phones but kept the TV on because apparently, it made them look cool. I didn’t appreciate such showy behavior.

There have been she–wolves that had attempted to win my heart but my wolf never felt towards them. Nora has that pull that I couldn’t ignore.

Fortunately, there was Nora. She was so unique and different. Unfortunately, she was so stunning that everyone had their eyes on her. I noticed how the other students checked her out today, and it pained my heart.

“Brody!” April called out, a frown creasing her forehead, while Natalya sat up properly now that I was going to join them.

“Why did you defend her today? She lied about you blocking her and got you called out on speaker. Seriously?” April spoke as if I were born yesterday, thinking she could fool me. I wasn’t as naive as Nora.

“So you played her today,” It wasn’t a question but a statement. I had been simmering with anger ever since I saw Nora cry earlier.

“I didn’t,” April grunted, folding her arms defensively.

“Actually, Nora was calling her names. She even threatened me–” The nerve of this girl to speak against Nora in front of me.

“Did I ask you?” I hissed, and she instantly fell silent, looking to April for support.

“What’s wrong with you? You’re fighting everyone for her? The one who sleeps around with her stepbrothers?” That same rumor surfaced again, and my fists clenched.

“April!” I groaned, giving her one last warning to change her ways. “If you don’t start respecting Nora,” I stepped closer, hunching over to ensure she heard me loud and clear. I had always seen her as my little sister, but I would choose Nora over her without hesitation. She

needed to understand that.

“The thing is—Nora is not like others. She is not the type to sleep with everyone, and I still won’t leave her. She’s my girlfriend, and I love her very much,” I noticed her body flinching. “But if you or your unruly friend attack her character again or do anything to upset her—I might have to intervene in your relationship with the Alpha King brothers as well.” The moment she heard the threat, she gasped.

Natalya covered her mouth with her hands, looking frightened for her relationship.

“Are you threatening me for her?” April must really be delusional to ask me that question. Couldn’t she tell already that I stand with Nora?

“And I’m sure you wouldn’t want that,” I patted her head, forcing a smile. “So be a good sister and leave my girl alone,” my tone hardened, and they both noticed. Natalya avoided eye contact while April stared at me before quickly nodding.

“You even got her an apartment.” April mentioned cautiously, careful not to provoke me further. Even Natalya looked sad. Why did these girls hate her so much? This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m not going to bring her here or anywhere she doesn’t feel safe. I don’t know about her stepbrothers, but April, for me, her comfort comes first. And I know she won’t be comfortable around the two of you.” I straightened my back and stretched my neck.

“You’re spoiling her. Soon, she’ll think she can use you however she wants without fear of losing you,” April warned, and it’s not like I wasn’t aware of it.

“And? That’s what I want.” I replied, noticing them exchange a glance. “I want her to know I’ll be there for her no matter what. Because April, what is love if your lover can’t trust you to stand by them in good and bad times?” I shrugged. I wasn’t sure why they kept trying to poison my mind about Nora. It wasn’t going to work. Even if I caught her in bed. with someone, even with her stepbrothers. I’d be upset and angry, but I wouldn’t break things off with her.

She was special to me. I wasn’t going to lose someone my heart and wolf cherished so deeply.

In fact, recently. I’ve been feeling a strange pull towards her whenever she’s around, and her scent would fill my nostrils. It was the kind of pull one feels when they’re on the verge of a mate bond. However, since her wolf hadn’t awakened and we hadn’t been together during a full moon, I hadn’t experienced it fully. But I was convinced that someday, this miracle would happen.

“Now, I’ll go because I have to order some more stuff for the apartment.” I knew these girls were probably upset that I was giving Nora so much attention. But did I care? Nope! My focus was on comforting Nora and letting her know she wasn’t alone. Sometimes, I
