Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 127

127–She Wants Her Stepbrother 

Nash: 

“Just one room will be fine,” I said as I paid for the room in advance at the motel. I had taken Nora to the motel after buying the medicines and food. She was still very sleepy. 

The guy stared at her and then at me, taking a deep breath before handing me the keys. 

“Do you want me to call a doctor for her, your highness?” the man with a thick moustache asked. 

“Not now, but if I need one later tonight, I will call you,” I said, and he nodded in understanding. 

“I don’t know how I fell,” Nora uttered again in her sleep. The man gave her a sad look while I carried her to the room in my arms. 

It was a small motel with not many rooms. They were all on the ground, built at a distance from each other. 

Once I reached our room and laid her down in the only bed, I locked the door and stood next to her with my hands on my waist. 

“Ugh!” I groaned as I saw Ryker calling me again. 

I didn’t know what was going on with him today. He had never contacted me this many times in one day. 

And I knew for a fact that everything was fine there because Silas had sent me a text with updates about what was happening at the border.

So what was bothering Ryker so much? 

“Yes. Ryker? Is everything okay?” I changed my tone when talking to him. We always preferred him over each other. 

“You weren’t picking up my calls. I wanted to know if you have reached your destination and how Nora is,” he bombarded me with questions. I watched her in her sleep and closed my eyes, sighing in relief. 

If only they knew what had transpired here in the last few hours, they would have freaked out too. 

We were this close to losing Nora today. Even the thought of it made me shudder.

“Everything is fine. Sorry, we were busy trying to locate the town. We’ve decided to stay over at a motel and Nora is currently resting,” I said in one breath, hoping to get off the call sooner so that I could call Daphne. 

I really had a bone to pick with her. She had been causing trouble here and there for the last few months. If sh 

didn’t change her ways, I was afraid I might break her heart and end our relationship. 

Which, by the way, I wasn’t even feeling anymore. Now that I had stopped talking to her every day, I realized it was her who made all the efforts in this relationship. 

It made me feel guilty in the beginning until I started seeing the faults in her actions. 

“She is resting?” Ryker sounded like he didn’t believe me. I wanted to get off the call before he started asking me tons of questions and I had no response to give him.

“Yeah, she was tired,” I said in a cheerful tone. “And so am I. I will head to bed so that we can get up early in the morning and be on our way to the town.” 

He remained silent for a few seconds before he finally responded, “Okay! Take care and make sure she stays safe.” 

As he hung up, I frowned and stared at the phone. 

“That is unlike Ryker. He never cares about anyone,” I told Shan, who was also a bit lost at how Ryker jumped into the conversation about Nora. 

“He barely cares about us. It’s not in him to like or be worried about anyone. But I’ve noticed his tone shift whenever he talks about Nora,” he was right, and it was scary. 

Maybe he really wanted a stepsister. That could be why he might be showing some concern for her. There was a moment where a thought occurred in the back of my head, and I swiftly shook my head to get rid of it because it sounded so disgusting. 

“It must be nothing. Maybe he is with Dad and is trying to act like he is a good guy. Remember that whole monster sample thing? I’m sure he wanted her out of the mansion but got caught in his own games,” I convinced myself he was acting. 

I knew my brother and I knew how he was. Even if he wanted to, he could never be concerned about someone or worried about losing 

someone. 

And that’s when I heard Nora groan in her sleep. 

“She looks so peaceful,” Shan commented, bringing a smile to my lips.

As I watched her with adoration, she stretched and her shirt lifted a bit. A gulp rushed down my throat when my eyes landed on her stomach. 

It was just a stomach, but why did it make my body feel that sensation? I looked away first and then hunched over to adjust her shirt.. 

I had only touched her shirt when she grasped my hand and pulled me. down, making my heart skip a beat.
