Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 6

6-The Cruel Pack Members
Nora:
School was a nightmare for me, and even when the Alpha King took me to his home to welcome me into his family, things didn’t really change for the better.
By the end of the school day, I was soaked in milk, my white sweater covered in scribbles, my books torn, and my assignment missing. It was infuriating how little the teachers cared, given that the bullies were either Alphas of neighboring packs or their minions.
The part that I hated the most was that today the werewolf council was at the school to pick young warriors for the pack’s security, even with that much going on, nobody cared about the she-wolf getting abused in school.
As the bell rang, I hastily gathered the remnants of my books. and stuffed them into my bag. I wanted to escape without becoming a target again. Moving toward the exit, I began to hear noises from behind.
With food in my hair and a battered appearance, anyone I passed made comments or laughed at me. Just as I thought I was about to leave the school, a forceful push against my back sent me tripping, landing on the ground. I face-planted in front of the entire school, eliciting laughter from everyone.
I anticipated this would happen if I was caught near the exit. The crowd surrounded me as Queen Bea appeared with her two

minions – Royal Beta’s daughter, April Watts of the Red Storm pack. Her purple hair was perfectly curled, hazel siren eyes glistening with sharp eyeliner, and pink lipstick with a hint of glitter. In short, she looked like someone who could rule the world with her attire alone. And then there was me, a mere wolfless being.
“Where do you think you were rushing to?” April uttered in her high-pitched tone, stomping on the back of my hand as I tried to retrieve my bag.
“Owww!” I winced in pain, avoiding eye contact as she hated it. tears welled into my eyes as I noticed the gammas and omegas standing around and watching her bully me.
“What’s the matter? Are you crying?” she pouted, allowing the students around her to laugh, even when it wasn’t funny. “Aw! Look at this poor girl, there’s food stuck in her hair. I wonder what her wolf feels. Oh sorry! She doesn’t even have a wolf” she pouted, finally stepping away so I could retrieve my hand.
She knew I didn’t have a wolf, so healing would be a major problem for me. Yet, she didn’t care, leaving a bruise on the back of my hand.
“How about we give her a haircut?’ The moment I heard a snapping of scissors, I raised my head to see her holding a pair of scissors.
‘Do it!” The crowd cheered, twisting my heart in my chest. Not a single person seemed to come forward to stop her. As for me, how could I fight them all back? But obviously, that didn’t mean I wouldn’t. However, the instant she noticed I was getting ready to protest, she eyed her two minion twin sisters, and they got on their knees, restraining my arms. These twins were omegas and

the only way they have survived the pack’s bullying was by sticking beside April.
“Let me go, are you crazy?” Those words slipped from my lips as I observed them forcing me down, with April crawling on top of
me.
“Hold her tight. I don’t want to puncture her empty head,” she squeaked, flipping her hair to the side and posing for pictures as if she accomplished something big..
“These pictures will be shown to the omegas. I am only doing you a favor. Imagine your wolf breaks free after enduring this torture,” she made up an excuse because deep down inside, even she knew she was just a s**.
“No!” I resisted, and that’s when some guy held my legs to prevent me from moving and hurting April.
“Thank you, love!” she briefly turned to the guy and winked at him.
As he grasped my hair and pulled it up, fixing the scissors very close to my skull, I closed my eyes. This was the worst thing happening to me in two days. Yep! I’ve been through worse.
However, expecting the snap of scissors any time soon, I was quite taken aback when a harsh voice ended their
entertainment.
“What the heck is going on here?” Even in a state of distress, I recognized the voice to be Ryker’s.
April raised her head while I stared at her. She quickly jumped off and stepped away, throwing away the scissors. I was now

He bent down and, after examining me, put his hands behind my head and helped me up.
“What the hell kind of behavior is that?” as he yelled, everyone shuddered.
“She fell” April’s friend attempted to say when his angry glare hushed her down.
It had only been a day, but I had not seen Ryker so serious,
“What is this?” he then suddenly held my hand to gently rub his thumb over the bruised April’s shoe left. His hands were super cold, and his fingers were big and bony. It should have been nothing, but his touch felt odd to me.
I gulped when I noticed how everyone was watching us in surprise.
“Who did this?” In a swift move, he let go of my hand and yelled at the others. Even April was gawking at him. She did appear afraid of him, but more importantly, she was checking him out. The fact that he came with his b**dy sword just proved he had a rough day at the border of the pack.
“But she is a wolfless individual, and those people get

“Why is Alpha King Ryker defending her?” I heard one girl ask the crowd.
“Is he her boyfriend?” Another uttered. My heart pounded hard at the a**
“No way! I don’t believe he would late her. That’s unfair” that whiny voice belonged to April.
Well, needless to say, I was going to be the talk of the school from now on. And I wondered if they would dare annoy me again.
As I followed Ryker and reached for his bike, I watched him get on it and then stretch his arm wide to stop me from walking
away
“Do you not know how to defend yourself?” he looked mad at me as well.
“They were too many, and I tried,” I attempted to speak, but he hushed me. I couldn’t help but stare into the silver in his eyes, Flis thick black eyebrows when frowning looked so attractive.

“Don’t give me that nonsense. If you want us to introduce you as our stepsister, you better keep that reputation. Don’t let our names be dragged through the mud,” he hissed, bringing his body closer when I didn’t respond to him.
“Nora!” he grunted, making my body jump a little. “When I talk, you look me in the eye, you got it?”
He pulled even closer, sounding angry. I raised my head and looked him in the eye like he wanted me to, and a brief silence took over us before he quickly looked away and asked me to climb onto his bike.
“And make sure you don’t wear that nightdress from now on,” that comment came as a surprise, but before I could even react, he had started his bike.
