Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 159

159–Welcome Home Boyfriend 

Nora: 

After talking with Akira, I decided it was a better choice to shut her out for a while. There was no way I was going to go along with what she was suggesting. Not until I was certain it was safe enough for me to take that step. 

I rested and woke up to a knock on my door. The maid informed me that Alpha Brody was in the living room. He had been summoned to the mansion by Lord Atwood fo discuss a few things. 

I couldn’t believe it was all happening so quickly. I really didn’t want it to happen that fast. 

After changing into a short black dress, I headed back to join them. Ast I descended the staircase, I saw Nash standing there, staring at me. 

“I hope you understand I have to do this,” I apologized. He had never asked for anything, and I knew he wasn’t making any demands even now, but deep down, he wasn’t happy with the idea of me dating Alpha Brody. 

He had made his feelings clear many times, but I didn’t have a choice. 

anymore. 

“They’re in the living room,” he stepped aside. I entered the room to find Lord Atwood and Brody sitting together, sharing a laugh until Brody’s eyes fell on me. 

“There she is,” Lord Atwood smiled, gesturing for me to sit down. I sat beside him but couldn’t say a word.

“I hope you will take care of her and be a good boyfriend to her. She is precious to me, Brody. I hope you know,” he started, making it easier for me because I kept thinking about how I would talk to Brody about. this situation. 

But it seemed Lord Atwood had already briefed him, and from the way Brody nodded his head and smiled, it was clear he was already on. board with the decision. 

“You will not regret this decision,” Brody smiled, giving Lord Atwood a final bow as Lord Atwood stood up to leave us alone to discuss things further. 

Once he walked out of the living room, I watched Brody stare at me for a few seconds, as if waiting for me to start a conversation. 

When he realized I had nothing to say, he slid to the edge of the couch 

and took the lead.. 

“I know you’re not doing this because you decided to give me a chance, it’s your stepfather’s decision. However, if you want me to back down, let me know,” thankfully, he wasn’t some pushy guy who refused to acknowledge the stress I was under in accepting to date him. 

“It’s just that, Brody, I’ve rejected your offer before and now—I feel very selfish,” I uttered in a guilty tone. It was even hard for me to raise my head and meet his eyes. 

“If that’s what’s bothering you, forget about it. I guess it was just the Moon Goddess‘ plan to make you give me a chance,” he tried to joke about it, and I managed a faint smile. 

“Hey! Don’t be so sad. I know you’re making this decision to help clear your name, and I don’t mind. I’m also certain all these accusations are baseless. They were spread out of malice. I just want you to know that I

will never pressure you for anything. I understand why you’re giving me a chance, and I’ll be patient,” he placed a hand on his heart and spoke softly, finally allowing me to breathe peacefully and return his smile. 

“Thank you, Brody. I was so scared and upset,” the moment I found him being so supportive, I started to break down little by little. 

“Hey, hey!” He left his seat to sit with me, his arm wrapping around my shoulder and pulling me close to his chest. 

“You don’t get it. The way they all looked at me in school today, Brody! I felt like they would set me on fire like they’d caught a witch,” I sobbed, seeking comfort leaning against his chest. 

“They would never do that. I won’t let it happen. Besides, tomorrow, I’m giving them a task that will make them cry for days,” he teased, making me raise my head and watch him pout like a child. He looked so adorable. 

I guess Lord Atwood was right. I needed to give him a chance. My own mates were barely understanding me. I needed someone who could assist me with everything.
