Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates

Tasting 333

333–The Weak And Neglected Child.

Nora:

The breakfast ended with Janet still looking unhappy. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen her truly smile anymore. I guess that’s what happens when you marry Brody. He’s nice until he isn’t.

I would never have been so negative towards him had he not shown me how cold he could be when he wanted. The way he refused to let me visit the hospital and is now holding my children hostage was enough for me to see his true nature. All the niceness was just a façade to get me to side with him against his brothers. His gestures were always self–serving.

“So, I’m really not carrying a gun?” I didn’t want a gun. It’s not like I had good aim. I could rely on Akira all day. But watching Rollo get tense every time I asked for a gun was pretty amusing. Everytime I teased that man, he would visibly get upset and look at Brody as if complaining like a child does to his mommy.

“Tell her to stop,” he turned to the alpha like a child and complained. We arrived a few minutes ago. I sat in my cage, and the minute I got out, I started bothering Rollo.

“Stop it, you two. You need to work together to accomplish this mission,” Brody said with no sense of fun. He was so dull, always getting irritated and yelling like a grumpy father.

“I don’t know why we’re trusting someone who is a stepsister of the alpha king’s brothers,” Rollo commented, but I didn’t respond. I was pretty sure he knew his comment would annoy me.

“Now go out there and beat someone’s ass,” Brody said with a dry smile.

I didn’t look directly at him. It brought back memories of my pregnancy and how I couldn’t be with my children.

“And Rollo–since you have the gun, make sure you keep her safe,” Brody warned his beta but cast a lingering glance at me. His attempt to sound concerned was cringe–worthy.

“Save me, daddy!” I jested at Rollo, who turned to Brody again with wide eyes. I hated how Brody constantly looked at me whenever I made a joke. I guess he only liked the innocent version of me.

Or maybe he didn’t. They all pretty much chewed and threw the innocent Nora. I liked being bitter, not having anyone to take a bite, or dare to take a bite.

“Let’s go. You’ll find Mommy waiting for you here,” I patted Rollo’s back as I walked past him towards the track.

I heard him mumbling something to Brody before he followed me. I glanced back briefly to make sure he was following and then chuckled.

“You didn’t seem so annoying when you first arrived,” he remarked, easily catching up because of his long legs.

“That’s because I was hiding my true self,” I replied, enjoying his changing reactions.

“I’m not afraid of you,” he quickly added when he noticed me laughing at him.

“Then act like a courageous person. Stop complaining to your mommy all the time,” I teased, and after a few minutes, he began walking ahead of

1. me.

“You know, I get it. You’re frustrated, and maybe you think acting tough will help you overcome your life problems more easily,” he commented

“See, you understand me too well. You caught me right in the act,” I rolled my eyes. I wouldn’t let him get under my nerves. He can’t make me explain anything to him.

“Hm, which reminds me, why is your fourth child so weak?” As soon as he mentioned my baby, my body tensed, and I halted in my steps. It was like he knew how to get a reaction out of me.

He noticed after a moment that I wasn’t moving, so he turned around with a smirk on his face.

“What happened? Not so talkative anymore? What happened to your comebacks?” I couldn’t focus on anything anymore. Why did he mention my baby like that?

“What do you mean he is weak?” I rushed towards him, facing him as if challenging him. My heart was pounding in my temples at this moment.

“He needs proper medical care all the time. Didn’t anyone tell you about this?” Now he wasn’t smirking anymore.

My heart felt like it was sinking in my chest. There was no way I could have been unaware while my baby was suffering so much.

“To hell with you and your alpha’s mission. I’m going back,” I hissed as I turned around to leave.

I didn’t care if their pack suffered now. How dare they keep the truth from me?

That’s when I came face to face with what they were calling a monster. We both went silent, not a single sound louder than the hissing of the beast in front of us.
