50–My Stepbrother Or A Murderer?

“Mix it well,” Brody chimed in as he watched me stir the mixture. He had one hand on the counter, his body hunched over, while I leaned back against the counter and smiled..
“We have a coffee maker,” Nash, who had been lingering around for way too preparing baking goods just so he could stay in the kitchen and keep an eye on us, finally spoke up.

After Brody offered to help me make coffee, Ryker left the kitchen but made sure Nash intended to stay. Every time I raised my head, I would see Nash staring at us from any corner of the kitchen, observing us nonstop. It made me so uncomfortable.
“I prefer this method,” I shut down Nash when I took Brody’s side and smiled for him.
“Alpha Brody!” Finally, after ignoring each other for a while, Nash was the one who said his name.
It wasn’t that I didn’t notice Brody avoiding them too. Usually, any alphas would greet the alpha king’s with respect, but not Brody. He didn’t even want to acknowledge that he was standing in the mansion and at the pack of the alpha king’s brother whom he was avoiding.
Finally, after closing his eyes and taking a deep sigh, Brody turned to face Nash.
“Alpha Nash,” the odd way he said his name and skipped the title ‘King‘ made me raise my head and watch their encounter with much

more intent now.
“It won’t be long until I get my Alpha King title. I’ll send you an invitation for my crowning; you must come though,” Nash smirked. After stressing over Brody and me making coffee for the past few minutes, he seemed relaxed now that he was directly speaking to Brody.
“Great. I will definitely come,” Brody replied.
“Aw! That is sweet,” Nash was such a bully. He looked so full of himself when trying to get under Brody’s nerves.
“Of course, how can I miss an event where my best friend will be?” Brody said, turning to smile at me. My heart did a double flip.
I’m not saying I had a crush on him, but this had never happened before. No guy had been so nice to me, so an alpha so handsome giving me attention was really doing something to my poor innocent heart.
“She’s your best friend now?” Nash placed his hands on his waist, “she’s my sister, and I don’t appreciate her meeting someone overnight and the guy acting like he knows her too well,”
His smile had finally faded now that Brody gave him the same annoying response like he was giving to Brody before.
“Ah! Well, don’t worry, your sister is safe with me. I have a great reputation. It’s not like I entered someone’s pack and killed innocent people but got away because my dad is an alpha king,” My heart skipped a beat at Brody’s taunt.
The way Nash’s body twitched also made it apparent that Brody was talking about Nash.

“Maybe we shouldn’t talk about whatever happened,” Nash shrugged, and while Brody was about to say something, Nash got closer and smirked.
“After all, I can end your friendship with my sister in a click of my fingers.” he hissed, clenching his jaw.
“Hey, I think we should go check on Natalya,” I quickly intervened and stepped between them. The two were glaring into each other’s eyes as if they would eat each other alive.
“Let’s go, Brody.” I held his hand without noticing that it would make Nash glare at me and even be angry hours later. But in the moment, I just dragged Brody with me to. the out. Once we were walking away with the mugs of coffee, I slowed down to speak to Brody.
“Are you okay? You seemed so angry there,” I uttered awkwardly.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for you to see me argue with your brother,” he was so sweet, talking calmly and even admitting to his mistake. He was also considerate, and that was pretty adorable.
“It’s fine. He was asking for it,” I cleared my throat before I looked at his face again to ask him what the whole killing thing was about.
But before I could ask him anything, I watched him hunch over me and then smile.
“What?” I asked, feeling shy.
“You have this beautiful mole under your lip on the left side,” he whispered, his eyes staring at my lips.
“Oh! I–yeah,” I awkwardly looked away and bit my bottom lip, right where the mole was.

plan to kill me with his compliments?
“Why don’t you dip it in coffee and eat it then?” We both stepped away at the comment from Ryker, who was sitting on the couch in the living room, doing nothing but playing with the lamp on the side, turning it off and on.
Brody rolled his eyes and then shook his head.

This might be a good read if it quits switching languages. It starts English then I believe maybe dutch then possibly Spanish so makes it hard to understand with not being able to read paragraphs at a time ....
