Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates

103–The Seduction Of My Stepbrother

Nora:

I spent most of the night connecting dots, only to spend the rest debunking them. I didn’t want to accept Natalya’s betrayal, a notion in which Ryker played a significant role. There was no way he would do that to me. To go behind my back and make deals with my friend, not way Ryker would do that.

“Eat before you head off to school, Nora!” Lord Atwood ordered, shaking his head as I attempted to rise from my seat.

I pouted and settled back down, seizing the sandwich and savoring it with big bites to quickly be done with it. Cain had yet to join us for breakfast. Silas ate silently, while Nash busied himself with his cereal.

“Good morning!” Just as I presumed Cain might still be asleep, he descended the stairs clad in a partially buttoned white shirt. He greeted Nash with a high five before acknowledging his father with a nod. Then, he reached for a jar of jelly, peculiarly putting aside the knife and instead dipping his finger inside to retrieve a dollop.

Glancing around for confirmation, I observed the others seemingly unfazed. Perhaps it was a normal practice of his? He methodically licked the jelly from his finger, all the while nodding along to his father’s instructions regarding pack matters. Although the others listened attentively, it was his detached demeanor, punctuated by the casual gesture of sticking his fingers up in a V–shape and sticking his tongue between them to get the jelly, that drew attention.

My legs trembled, and before I knew it, I was pressing them together.

I felt a strange tingling sensation between my legs as he continued to dip his fingers in the jar and lick them. After a few seconds of doing so, he put the jam down and leaned closer to his father’s seat, trying to look through the phone screen.

Lord Atwood was showing the brothers something on his phone. Cain had stretched his arm to his dad’s chair and then the other to the free chair on the other side. As he sprawled across the seat, his shirt opened. a little more, and his abs popped out for all to see.

Just as I thought that would be the end, he suddenly noticed how much his shirt had ridden up and decided to pull it down. He let his arm rest behind his father on the chair and used the other hand to adjust his shirt, not just leaving it there. He proceeded to fix his black pants. I gulped when I saw his hand on his bulge, adjusting it and then fixing his posture in the seat.

Taking a deep breath, I finally broke my gaze from him. Was he intentionally doing all that, or was I just noticing it too much today? Whatever it was, I needed to stop. He had challenged me last night, and I didn’t want to lose. Therefore, I decided to avoid looking at him and win this challenge. He would be the first one to crack, no matter what.

Lord Atwood smoothly conversed with his sons and rose from his seat to fetch his keys and offer me a ride home. I was conscious of the situation we had all found ourselves in, and I couldn’t help but wonder if I should approach Ryker and inquire why he had treated me unfairly.

However, at that moment, I needed to be at school. My stepfather dropped me off at the gate and quickly drove off, likely dealing with another security issue that had arisen.

“Hey!” I approached the lockers and was greeted by April, who appeared to have been waiting there for my arrival.

“Hello! How are you today?” I casually inquired, recalling how she had acted strangely after learning that Ryker had been searching for

Natalya everywhere the day before.

“I’m feeling much better. I thought about everything and decided not to let any thoughts consume me. Therefore, I’ve resolved to speak to Alpha King Ryker myself,” she stated with a determined expression.

I waited for a few seconds, expecting her to follow up with “I’m joking,” but when she didn’t, I had to tilt my head and question her plan.

“Why do you feel the need to ask him any questions?” My voice was slightly hoarse, and I had to clear my throat before continuing.

No one in the pack knew that Ryker had been punished to stay in the woods for a month. Such matters were never disclosed.

Oddly enough, the brothers didn’t really engage in any conversations with others. They didn’t even have close friends they could hang out with, which made me wonder why!

“Because, Nora! Misconceptions ruin relationships,” she replied with a shrug, making me squint a little to confirm I heard her correctly.

“I’m sorry, what relationship?” I tilted my head, giving her a questioning look to make her rethink her words.

“Nora! You know I like your stepbrother, right? I don’t want to risk anything with him,” this time, she was open about her feelings and love for Ryker, which left me not only stunned but also jealous.

“Oh! I didn’t know,” I awkwardly smiled, but deep down, I was burning with my own feelings for him.

“But now you know. Can you please help me get in contact with him? I

tried asking around for his number, but whatever number I was given, I never got a text back from him,” she pouted sadly, staring at me with expectations.

I watched her face in silence, contemplating if I could give her news that wouldn’t break her heart but would make her back away from my

crush.

“Hmm! April! I don’t know how to say this, but he’s not interested in you,” I said, observing her changing expressions.

“But I can try-” as she continued, I shook my head vigorously.

“He’s not going to change his mind, just forget about it,” I uttered and closed the locker door when a loud scream from the end of the hallway diverted our attention to the impending trouble.
