Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 228

228–I Did It With All OF Them But Him. 

Nora: 

“I thought you were coming in late,” Cain said, still fixing his pants, though his shirt was a mess too. 

As for me, I awkwardly got up from the couch and, without meeting Silas‘ eyes, rushed back to my bedroom. Once inside, I stood next to the door to eavesdrop on their conversation. I feared he would bring me up. 

“I tried fixing the car, but the rain got bad. Dad called and said he would stay with his friend, so I came here,” Silas‘ voice was quieter than usual. 

“She has a separate room here,” Cain added. 

“Aha!” Silas‘ minimal response to his brother made me anxious. 

My heart was pounding in my throat now. I grabbed a gray dress and quickly tossed it on with a white sweater to double up the layers. As I stared at the dress I’d worn before, I wondered if Silas had seen my body through the transparent fabric. 

“I’m so, so stupid,” I hissed under my breath, stomping my foot as I stood near the door, pondering how to appear normal when leaving the 

room. 

I walked out, trying to look casual, my eyes on the TV as I pretended to be interested in what they were watching. From my peripheral vision, I could see Cain on the couch while Silas paced around. 

“Silas! How are you?” I managed to call his name, turning his attention 

to me. 

“Good,” he replied, not meeting my gaze. I instantly looked at Cain, who was thankfully noticing our interaction. 

“Silas! Sit down,” Cain said, but Silas shook his head. 

“I’m fine,” he responded, pacing from one corner of the apartment to the other, looking anxious. 

“Did he see us?” I almost whispered, afraid he might hear us too. 

“I don’t think so,” Cain shrugged, changing the channel. He seemed unbothered, but I was losing my mind. 

“I’ll make you two coffee,” I said, needing a minute to get away from them and be by myself. Once in the kitchen, I started pacing back and forth. While preparing the coffee, I stood next to the window and looked down at the road. It was pouring, so there was no way they could leave tonight. 

Then I heard a knock on the door, making me turn my head to see who it was. It was Silas. 

“You don’t need to knock on the kitchen door,” I tried making a joke, laughing nervously, but his serious face made my smile fade away. He kept his head down and walked over to me, then stopped and pushed his glasses onto the bridge of his nose. He then raised his head and fixed his gaze on me. 

“What was that?” The seriousness in his tone, along with the question. itself, sent shivers down my spine. 

“What?” I folded my arms over my chest, pretending to be confused.

“When I came inside, I found you two–,” he paused to take a deep breath, “he was fixing his pants and getting up from the couch. The couch where you were lying wearing a see–through dress that you needed to fix too,” he explained. It sounded pretty bad. 

“Huh? Ohhhh! I had fallen asleep on the couch without locking the door. He arrived and tried to wake me up, but I panicked and attacked him,” I laughed nervously, hoping he would crack a smile too. But he remained staring at my face with a weird, judgmental look. 

“Do you—do you want me to make you something? You must be hungry. Rain and cold weather call for good food,” I was talking too much. I was sure he was even more suspicious because he wasn’t saying a single word to me. 

“Let me make you sandwiches,” I said, turning my back to him even though I knew the conversation wasn’t over yet. 

“You had sex with my brother?” The moment I thought he might get a hint that there was nothing odd, he shocked me with his question. 

My body flinched and I spun to face him, keeping a very shocked look. on my face. 

“What?” I acted offended. 

“Don’t play me. You had sex with him. I didn’t see you attack him. I watched him get up after–” he finally revealed how much he had seen, and I felt like my heart had stopped beating. 

“I’m not sure what you saw, but I didn’t have—sex with him or any my stepbrothers,” I was panicking so hard that I began to mumble 

nonsense. 

His frown deepened and he lowered his head, as if thinking about
