Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 134

134–Following His Scent 

Nora: 

I woke up to find him already gone. It was amazing that he stayed beside me and didn’t let the awkwardness stop him from making me feel comfortable. 

“That was hot,” Ajira commented. Since he was not in the room, I had taken a shower and even twisted the ring on my finger to have a word with myself. 

I knew she must have a lot of comments to make about it. 

“He was so nice about everything.” I recalled the whole journey, and he had only made things comfortable for me. 

“He is nice. And also hot,” Akira added, making me give her an eye 

roll. 

“Okay! Way to show you are too thirsty,” I commented. 

“But Nora! Did Daphne really push us down? If so, then isn’t it a bit crazy? If she is willing to push us down over some disagreement that she had from one side, what would she do now that he has broken. things off with her because of what she did to us?” Akira was right. Daphne could be pretty crazy. 

I didn’t really think about her until I met her again. She was crazier than—I tilted my head as I tried to recall—who se was messy? 

Natalya was a bit crazy, but she wasn’t as crazy as Daphne.

“Oh, and by the way, Nash said we will have this in the papers soon. What are we going to do about that? I am sure you are aware that after the signing of the papers, we cannot even be with our mates,” Akira added, and I gave her a nod as I was also considering discussing this matter with Cain and Ryker. 

“I am so exhausted with all the secrecy. I don’t know why, but I feel like I am digging more holes for myself than resolving my issues.” I sighed heavily, recalling how many troubles I have left behind at home. 

“For now, let’s focus on this mission and make sure we don’t get Nash into any more worries. This journey has already been too much for him.” Akira suggested. I quickly fixed my ring when I heard the door open a little. 

Nash had returned, wearing a white and black pants, with 

breakfast in his hands. 

“Good morning.” he greeted with his usual goofy smile. 

“Breakfast, yum!” My excitement for the food made him smile widely. 

“Okay! So after this, we will set off on our journey again, and by the afternoon, I believe we will be in the forbidden town,” Nash stated while packing his belongings. 

“Nash!” My call halted him in his steps, and he turned to look at me. “Thank you for last night. You have no idea how comfortable I felt after talking to you and then—you sleeping beside me.” 

He kept watching my face before he smiled innocently. “May I ask you something?” 

I nodded my head, and he turned to face me entirely. “Are you dating Brody?”

That question came out of nowhere. My eyes narrowed at him as I wondered why he would randomly bring up Brody when I hadn’t even spoken to him about it. 

“No! Why?” I asked in confusion. 

“Oh, nothing. It’s just that I heard you picked him over Ryker in school, so I wondered what might be going on,” the smile he gave me looked forced, but there was no other way he would have considered asking me that question. 

Maybe he did feel like I picked Brody because I was dating him. 

“Oh! Umm, Ryker called me yesterday to ask about you,” Nash made a vague comment before he disappeared into the bathroom to get ready for the day. 

I stared at the empty wall as I recalled the last few days and how things. have gone between me and Ryker. 

Did Ryker tell him something about Brody? 

I do remember Ryker warning me that if I didn’t tell Brody that I couldn’t date him, he would do something about it. Then I focused on Nash’s changed behavior. Were these brothers maybe talking about me and sharing our personal business with each other? 

I shook my head to clear my thoughts and tried not to get too deep into doubting them. They have been nice to me, so I wouldn’t want to ruin it because of some doubts. 

“All done with breakfast?” Nash walked out wearing black khaki pants and a shirt, with a jacket on top. I noticed some weapons sticking out of his belt and realized how serious this mission was going to be. 

“Yes!” I nodded, getting up from the couch and grabbing my bags, but

he quickly took them out of my hands. 

“I will carry them to the car,” his voice was always rough, but his tone was so gentle with me. 

After he loaded our bags in the trunk of the car, we were back on our
