Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 273

273–He Might Die 

Nora: 

All the times he showed he loved me desperately, saying he couldn’t bear to see me with someone else—what about that? 

Silas! 

He said if I wasn’t his stepsister, he would take me to the ball. The one who had never shown interest in any she–wolf had said those words about me. Were those lies too? 

“Nora?” Brody gently nudged me awake, and I saw the door he was holding open for me. 

I nodded, but first, I turned to hug Lord Atwood one last time and say goodbye. However, the moment I rushed dramatically in his direction, he extended his hand for a handshake, stopping me from hugging him.
