Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 145

145–The Beginning Of My Downfall 

Nora: 

I didn’t want to face Brody again today, but I’m sure I will have to since. we will be training together. Not only that, but I’ll also have to deal with Ryker, who must be furious with me for leaving with Brody in the morning. 

It felt like I had dug my own grave everywhere. Why the heck did I even talk to Natalya about Brody and me going out on a date? Why couldn’t I just tell her to mind her own business? 

Sighing, I reached the school hallway and noticed eyes on me. It was a bit different today. There were many students in the hallway, but their attention to me was frightening. They seemed to stare at me and then whisper in each other’s ears. Some of the girls even wrinkled their noses as they checked me out from head to toe. I noticed I wasn’t wearing anything bad, so why were they staring at me like that? I was wearing brown pocket trousers and a green tank top with my hair in a high ponytail. 

Avoiding their gazes, I continued my journey to the lockers. One specific comment got to me and shook my world when a girl passing by hissed, “Such a whore. You know incest is a crime, right?” 

My heart skipped a beat, and my steps halted beyond my control. I watched her swiftly get away so she couldn’t be questioned. But I know I heard her clearly, and she accused me of something that had been such a scare to me. 

I looked around at the others, and their disgusting gazes only suggested they were probably on the same page as her.

“What is going on?” I asked myself, gulping with difficulty. My mouth was turning dry at this point. Soon the bell rang, and everyone had to disappear. 

I had no choice but to attend the classes, knowing that something horrible had been cooking behind my back. 

As I entered the room, I looked around to spot my friends but found the seats next to both April and Natalya filled. The sight of Natalya. bothered me. I had a huge suspicion about her. I reached for one of the spare seats next to an omega girl and had only just sat down when she abruptly rose from her seat with her books in her hands. 

“What is it, Sally?” the new teacher, Livia Jet, asked the girl, watching her squirm in discomfort. 

“Can I please sit somewhere else?” the girl asked in a timid voice. Sally was always the silent one. She would barely pick fights or argue with anyone, so seeing her react like that to me trying to sit next to her shocked me. 

I noticed Natalya lifting her head to acknowledge what was happening before she tilted it and looked down again. She was doodling in her notebook. 

No! My suspicions were not wrong. She must have been behind this whole mess. Something very scary was going on. The way everyone was so disgusted with me worried me. 

“Okay! You can go sit over there,” the teacher said, looking a bit clueless. I assumed it was only the students who were acting up then. 

I was going crazy. Throughout the school periods, I could not focus on what the teachers were teaching us. My mind was blocked by the glares everyone around me was giving me. When the last period came,

where we were supposed to go for the combat classes, I decided I would speak to April and ask her what was going on. 

If Natalya had done something wrong, April would definitely know. Running after her, I tried to catch up, but she had already disappeared into the changing room with her friends. I stayed outside, rubbing my palms anxiously and wondering if I wanted to go in among such a crowd. 

Since I was half sure something was wrong, I couldn’t confront the answers directly. But after some time passed. I was left with no option but to enter the changing room and face everyone. Thankfully, they had all changed and were ready to leave. 

But not before, one by one, they bumped into me, pushing me back and back. 

“Hey!” I complained, rubbing my shoulder. 

Natalya was quick enough to sneak out with the other girls, but I did get a chance to block April’s path to have a word with her. 

“April! Oh my Goddess, I have been looking to speak to you since. morning.” I said, showing enthusiasm and curiosity. 

“Hmm? About what?” The tone she used was not the one she had been using with me ever since she found out I am a stepsister of the alpha king brothers. 

“Why are you talking like that with me?” I inquired carefully, examining her expressions as she rolled her eyes at me. 

“I am not doing anything. Of course, you are used to everyone talking sweetly and romantically with you. So you are feeling odd about my tone,” the blunt look she gave me and the tone she used made it
