Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates

364–Stealing Her From Brody

Cain:

I couldn’t believe she was acting as if she didn’t care. I had been upset with her and even felt betrayed before. But to see her treat me the same way was just terrifying. I don’t ever remember being afraid of losing someone or something like this for so long.

“I have ended things with Natalya,” I hoped that would make her happy. I wanted to see her act like herself around me again. It’s not like I didn’t appreciate the new, confident her–I did. But her indifference and lack of affection were breaking my heart. I wanted things to return to normal.

“Oh, I’m sorry!” she shrugged, briefly pausing, but I didn’t let her slip away. I stepped into her path quickly. “I did it because I never loved her.” I watched her nod her head, purse her lips, but avoid looking at me.

Why? Why was she avoiding me?

I noticed her body language and felt it was forced. It had to be because of our last encounter in my studio. I’ve thought about it every day since. I remember it word for word. She offered me her body– was that why she was so upset and couldn’t even look me in the eye?

I have imagined accepting her offer after that day so many times. I accepted not only her body but her too. And those dreams were the best.

“Okay! It happens. Don’t worry, you’ll find someone better,” I didn’t expect her to be so indifferent.

“Nora! What has gotten into you? I know you’re pretending not to care, and I understand why. I messed up, but-” Before I could explain myself,

her little chuckle interrupted me.

“But you had a reason. Yeah, I get it. It’s just that–I feel sorry for you and Natalya, but that’s all I can offer. Sympathy! Everything else I have to offer is for my husband. Now, if you’ll excuse me,” there was not a hint of love for me in her eyes.

I felt like the sky was collapsing on me. My head started spinning, and I had to rush to the kitchen to grab a glass of water.

I’m heartbroken!‘ my wolf uttered.

‘She doesn’t love us anymore,‘ I was still in disbelief.

Nora used to be so obsessed with me. Her possessiveness made me feel alive and special.

‘Remember how she used to make us feel like we were all she wanted?‘ I asked my wolf, feeling my heart skip beats. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

‘I think that’s why she’s so indifferent to us now. She gave us her all while we offered her nothing. Of course, she got exhausted with us,‘ I thought. My wolf didn’t need to say it out loud; I already knew. What we did was simply brutal to her.

But she was my mate. She was supposed to be hurt or at least complain to me. She didn’t even care about the reasons I hurt her or why I ended things.

‘Did you did you feel anything?‘ I asked my wolf, since we should be

you–did able to sense more than I could on my own.

‘Nothing. I felt nothing,‘ he replied, which shocked me further. I knew her wolf was out, so my wolf not feeling anything was a bad sign. Maybe she was right. She was genuinely over me and didn’t even want to think about us anymore.

‘Are we just going to leave?‘ Since she had been loudly proclaiming that she was happy and didn’t want us to interfere in her life, it was clear she wanted us gone. Did that mean I would leave her here?

‘No!‘ I grunted. ‘I don’t fucking care about why I ended things with her in the past or why I was upset with her anymore. I’m going to make her come home with me.‘ Only a fool would think I’d let her go.

I went straight back to my room to meet up with my brothers. They were all huddled together, waiting for my arrival. Now we were going to discuss everything, share what we had learned from her behavior, and talk about the whole situation with Brody and his other mate.

“I don’t care if she’s happy here or not. If it means causing trouble between her and Brody, I’ll do it,” Ryker declared confidently and loudly, not even noticing the looks we were giving him.

“I think they are hiding something,” Silas uttered.

“Of course, Brody seems to be attentive when we are questioning Nora. That asshole did something,” Nash hissed.

I was watching them share thoughts, slowly trying to get a hold of this situation and how to resolve it.

“But how would we ever find out? She is being so stubborn and whenever we are able to make her show any emotions, Brody shows up,” I uttered under my breath, gently touching my chin.

“There is only one way, we must take her away from Brody. The farther she is from him, the easier it is for us to get information out of her,” I decided and everybody seemed to agree with me.
