Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 91

91-The Jealous Mate And His H**y Brother
Nora:
Ryker quietly observed my face for a moment before placing my phone on my stomach and tossing my panties there as well. His hands turned into a fist, supporting his body up while he
pressed the fists against the seat.
“Why is he calling you?” he asked, his eyes darting at me.
“I don’t know. I will have to pick up his call to know why he is calling me,” I replied with a hint of hesitation. His harsh glare was really drying my throat.
He kept his eyes on me be. e he nodded to himself. With a quick movement, he exited the car.
I sat up and answered the call, holding my phone between my shoulder and ear as I struggled to put on my panties.
“Yes?” I gasped, out of breath. I could see Ryker pace outside the car while running hands through his hair and looking anxious. For a minute, I thought I had been caught cheating on him when he was asking me these questions.
“Where are you?” His voice sounded husky.
“I’m with Ryker. Dad said he’d look after me, but since he had some council work, I decided to come along,” I admitted guiltily, not revealing the whole truth.
“Oh! When will you be back? I came home early and couldn’t find

you,” he said, his tone revealing his preoccupation.
“I’ll have to check with Ryker when he returns,” I replied, hoping to avoid further questioning.
“No need. I’ll give him a call and ask him to bring you home,” he said casually from the other end.
“May I ask why you want me home?” I settled back into the seat. now that my panties were on.
“Are you forgetting something? You made a deal with me, don’t back out now,” the way he said it, I swear he must have smirked. a little. That alone made me press my body closer and blush.
Was he planning to do it tonight? remembered how he asked. me to give him a b**b. My heart started racing at the thought of seeing him cor tely naked and being intimate with him.
“Blushing?” he chuckled mockingly before taking a deep breath. and saying, “I will call Ryker now. Be ready!”
He hung up the call and shortly after, I spotted Ryker outside the car, picking up his phone.
He brought the phone to his ear and walked around attentively, conversing with his brother.
After ending the call, he returned to the backseat with a frown. on his face.
“He’s calling you back home,” Ryker mentioned, and I nodded, attempting to exit. When he didn’t budge, I realized he had some questions for me. “Can I ask why he’s ditching work to come

home early with you?”
Feeling uneasy, I had no response for him. It wouldn’t be easy to meet his gaze and say, “Oh, I have to give your brother a
b**b.” That would be awkward. If his brother didn’t inform him, I shouldn’t either.
Both of them were my mates, and I owed it to them to keep their secrets.
“I suppose we’ll figure it out once we’re home,” I chuckled nervously, stepping out of the car steadily as he drove away. The way he stared at me with his hands on his hips seemed both intimidating and challenging.
Did he forget that Cain is my mate? Or does he remember, and that’s why he appears doubtful and uneasy?
I sat in the passenger seat, he took his time before returning to the driver’s side. He slammed the door shut and started the engine without uttering another word to me.
At that moment, I felt an urge to ask if he was alright, but guilt restrained me because I knew the reason why Cain wanted me home. So, I remained silent, fearing he might start probing.
We drove in silence until we arrived home. I anticipated Ryker to depart since he had been receiving numerous calls from the council. However, he exited the car with me and even accompanied me inside.
At the top of the stairs, Cain was leaning on the railing with a playful grin on his face. He looked striking in all black, his hair still damp.

“Nora! Can we chat upstairs?” Cain, who had already let Ryker know we were mates, called out to me in front of Ryker.
“Sure,” I mumbled awkwardly, avoiding Ryker’s eyes. I felt so uneasy.
As I hurried upstairs, I didn’t realize Ryker was following me until I reached the studio door, where Cain had already entered.
“Ryker!” Cain greeted with a smile, patting his shoulder. “We’ll be fine.” Cain’s voice was deep and smooth.
“But why do you want her in your studio?” Ryker asked, trying to focus on Cain but occasionally glancing at me.
“Just mate stuff,” Cain replied, stretching his neck.
“What do you mean?” The look on Ryker’s face was something I should have paid more atte on to, but in that moment, I couldn’t think of anything else.
I was in the studio with Cain, the man I had started to have feelings for. It was like a crush because I remembered how I used to admire him and feel thrilled before the whole Natalya situation. After Natalya, I had pushed those feelings aside until Cain reminded me that we were mates.
“I want to talk to her about the mate bond thing,” Cain explained, but he hid the true reason behind my visit to his studio.
“Oh! Do you need my help resolving that issue?” Ryker
attempted to intervene, but Cain’s pat on his chest halted his steps in midair.
“I think I’ve got it. Why don’t you go back to the council and

finish your work? They’ve been calling me, asking if you’re coming to work or not,” Cain said holding the door as a barrier for Ryker.
“Alright, I’ll leave then,” Ryker whispered. This time, as Cain began to shut the door, Ryker looked me directly in the eye before disappearing from my sight and the door was locked behind us.
