Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates

140–He is Possessi

he groaned angrily, his eyes showing the anger he had towards me.

Thankfully, somebody rushed out to grab him away from me.

“What are you doing?” Cain pushed him back, stepping between us.

“Ask her. Ask her why she was sitting here with that asshole of an alpha and accepting gifts from him!” Ryker pointed at the broken teddy and then at me.

Cain heard him out before turning around to confront me.

“What is he saying? Who was here?” Cain frowned.

“That Brody. He asked her out twice, and she kept delaying her response. Do you mind asking her why? If she is your mate, why is she entertaining others?” Ryker kept going, making my heart flip inside my chest.

I told him about Brody, and he used it to rile Cain up against me.

And it worked, because the way Cain looked at me was like he had caught me in bed with Brody,

“What is he saying? You were here accepting gifts from someone else?” Cain asked in a polite voice, but the clenching of his jaw was a hint that he was not at all pleased with what he was hearing.

“He is my friend. I can do that. If you can dream about someone from your dreams and be embarrassed of me, I can do whatever I want. I am not bound to you or accepted by you.” I didn’t even know what I was saying, but I pointed a finger at Cain and he narrowed his eyes at me.

“But you know we mates. So does that mean if we haven’t accepted each other, we can do whatever we please?” he asked, straightening his

back to face me. Ryker had stepped away and started running his hands. through his hair after messing things up for me.

I looked back into Cain’s eyes, expecting someone to intervene, but when no one did, I was left with no option but to respond.

“Isn’t it like that?”

He stared back and then slowly nodded his head.

“Okay!” he shrugged, but there was a threat in his eyes.

“That’s enough. You need to learn to respect the rules of this mansion. Now go back to your room and let your friend know not to come here. again,” Ryker yelled at me, pointing his finger at me.

I contemplated if I should argue more, but the way he was huffing and puffing was a sign that if I didn’t give up, this argument would turn ugly. Stomping my foot while not breaking eye contact, I rushed back into the mansion and to my bedroom, making sure I was as loud as I could be when I slammed the door shut.

“Fuck Ryker!” I grunted at Akira, letting her know this one mate was now getting on my nerves.

“How would you have reacted if you had found your mate with someone else, accepting gifts and enjoying tea and snacks?” Unexpectedly, I heard Akira trying to justify his actions.

“Are

you serious right now? Did you not see how he behaved with me?” I yelled at her as well.

“You never answered me. How would you react?” she continued to ask.

“I would respond aggressively only if I’m not the reason we are not

“You are right. I don’t know why he is embarrassed of us,” the hurt in her voice made me calm down. I didn’t want her to suffer as she was already dealing with the captivity.

She was a prisoner in me, with the ring being the torture.

“I don’t know. Maybe his ego is playing a big part in it. He doesn’t want to accept someone who has multiple mates. He wants someone who is not mated to someone else at the same time,” I groaned as that seemed to be the only plausible explanation for why he couldn’t accept

“But I thought when somebody loves you, they accept you no matter what,” she was on point. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

That is what made me wonder if Ryker even loved me like that.

“He is just afraid of losing a mate because it took them years to find one. I don’t want to give up so much for someone who can’t even let go of his ego for me,” I decided, trying to find solace in my life after these brothers have turned it upside down.
