Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates

119–A Journey To The Forbidden Land.

Nora:

“Nora! Do you have a second?” Lord Atwood knocked on my door, which I had left ajar because I was busy sorting out some old stuff and waiting for the omega maid to bring the decorations I had ordered

online a few days ago.

“Sure, what is it?” I smiled at him, watching him look around at how nicely I had cleaned my bedroom. Thankfully, today was off from school because of some threats to the pack.

“I am so glad you are happy now,” he uttered sweetly.

“I am taking these vases out. I have ordered such amazing stuff,” I stopped yammering once I noticed Lord Atwood seemed a bit agitated.

“What’s up? Is everything okay?” I frowned, instantly shutting up to focus on him.

“I don’t know how you will react to the news but–,” the way he was fidgeting with his fingers and avoiding eye contact concerned me.

“Please tell me, I don’t do well with suspense,” I pouted, shaking my body anxiously.

“Nash has to leave the pack to go to the forbidden land for some work–,” he paused when the anxiety disappeared from my face.

“Okay?” I raised a brow.

“And he was insisting you go along with him,” the minute he said that,

I shot my eyes open and then opened my mouth wide in surprise.

“What!”

“I know you are shocked. But your other brothers and I are planning to go to the border of the pack and see what’s going on there,” he started explaining, and it was as if everything was important for me to pay full

attention to.

“The border? What is happening at the border?” I asked with a wide smile on my lips, trying to make it sound like I wasn’t truly invested.

“There have been some incidents, but don’t worry about that. Nash thinks it’s more plausible for you to tag along with him than to go with us to the border, where there might be a possible danger of war,” he finished, watching my face to see what decision I would make.

“I think Nash is right,” I said, not sure why, but it just slipped out. It was a bit fast, but I wasn’t regretting it either.

“Okay! That’s amazing then. You should prepare your bag as the journey might take more than a few days,” Lord Atwood explained, getting a nod from me.

“Don’t worry about your school, I’ve already asked for a leave,” he added before walking out of the room.

I found the idea to be amazing. Getting away from all the stress and mess for a few days seemed like the best option for now. Maybe by the time I return home, I will have a clear mind, and Ryker will also understand he cannot expect so much from me without offering me any surety.

I began to pack my bags as Lord Atwood had asked me to do, but I didn’t remember that the news must have reached my mate’s cars.

A knock on the open door caught my attention, and I found Cain leaning against the door with his arms folded over his chest.

“I heard you are leaving with Nash,” he said in his calm yet authoritative tone.

“You heard right,” I mumbled, focusing on zipping my bags.

“Hmm! Keep this just in case you need it,” he mumbled quickly, handing me a small item.

When I turned around to respond to him, I found he was already gone. There was a dagger placed on the side table that he had left for me. Even when I was upset with him, it just made me smile a bit. His subtle way of showing care was truly amazing at times.

After my bags were taken out of my room, I wondered where Ryker was. He hadn’t come to visit my room or even speak to me. Finding the brothers and their father in the parking lot, I grunted at the sight of Ryker. So he was here all this time but didn’t come to check on me? In fact, he even seemed angry with me. Wow! So he was the type who wouldn’t admit he was wrong then?

“All set?” Nash asked, looking so muscular in a black dress shirt and pants. His coat was resting on the hood of the car.

“Yeah,” I responded dryly as it was a bit hard for me to sneak a glance away from Ryker.

“Take care!” Lord Atwood wished while the others only stared at me. Silas stood with his brothers, his eyes narrowed at me.

After realizing I couldn’t get a single word out of Ryker’s mouth, I rolled into the car with Nash, and our journey began.

he would rather keep our interactions private to the point that he couldn’t even ask me to take care in front of everyone. I read his message and already, I was annoyed.

wolf out.

R: Don’t let your wolf

I grunted under my breath before thinking about responding to him. I typed a few times before deciding not to bother. While I was doing all that, I didn’t realize Nash had been noticing me.

“Who angered you?” There was a little jest in his voice when he asked me that question.

“Oh, no one,” I lied, quickly placing my phone in my lap and looking ahead on the road.

I noticed he was slowing down when a random stop came up. As I tried to narrow my eyes, I saw why his car had suddenly come to a halt. It was Daphne, waiting for him with her bags.

“Oh, I forgot to tell you, my girlfriend is also coming with us,” Nash mumbled in his deep and heavy tone, rolling down my window and gesturing at her to get in the car.

However, she decided to be messy and instead, opened the door to the passenger seat. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Are you going to sit in my lap?” I raised my brow in annoyance.

“No! You are going to sit in the back, and I’m going to sit with my boyfriend. Get up now,” she hissed, while Nash had left the car to load her bags in the back.
