Tasting Nora-Pleasing Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 276

276–A New Pack, New Troubles 

Nora: 

I wasn’t sure why, but was he happy that I was content, no matter the circumstances? 

“I think so. They do care about you. I mean, come on, we all know how possessive they used to be about you. And then—of course, with everything going on in the mansion, they probably think you’d suffer along with them if you stayed there,” he said, and I liked whatever I was hearing. 

That has to be it. 

They definitely sent me away for a while. Now that Brody agreed with it, I felt much more at ease. Or I convinced myself that was the case. 

“Once we get home, I’ll get you a phone and laptop. You shouldn’t stop studying or lose contact with the people you know,” he continued, and I nodded even though I could only reach out to the brothers and my stepfather. 

There was no one else in my life anymore. 

Natalya and April only made friends with me until they were not in my stepbrother’s lives. After they achieved that goal, they did everything in their power to get rid of me. 

“I don’t want you to misunderstand, but Brody—you do realize I‘ m not with you because of love, right? I mean, we can give it a try, but we shouldn’t expect too much too

“I am not offering you my loyalty or love,” it would be stupid of me to jump into another relationship before clearing my past and my mind. 

“I know that. And even so, I’m ready to treat you the way you deserve. So don’t worry, doing anything for you doesn’t mean you owe me anything in return,” he smiled to himself, and with that, the rest of our journey passed peacefully. 

However, it took us nearly a full day to travel by car. I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that I would have to travel so much to meet my mates and Lord Atwood again. 

But I was certain that now I was far away, they must be missing me. They must realize what they’ve done and how they’ve hurt me. However, as the distance between me and my mate’s grew, my body got restless. the feeling of horror creeping in on me left me stunned. 

It was just a matter of time before they came here to ask me to come back. I’d show a little resistance because of how 

humiliating it was when they shoved me away, but I’d eventually accept the offer since I knew they only did it because they were stressed out themselves. 

Upon arriving at his pack, I began to look around. It was a valley where his pack resided. The tall mountains and rugged terrain captivated me. 

“You like it?” Brody knew I was smiling because I liked the land. 

“It’s beautiful. I didn’t know your pack was in such a gorgeous place,” my compliment brightened his smile. He straightened

“This used to be a very rich land, Nora. The mountains have so many herbs that can be used for various medicines. Basically, you’re looking at the richest land in the North.” For a second, everything went silent, and all I could hear in my head was one name: 

Alpha King Silas. 

He was destined to rule all the packs of the North. 

I straightened my back and shook the thoughts away to be more present for Brody. 

“Then you guys must be thriving?” I asked, but my words trailed off when I saw the condition of the houses. They weren’t very fancy. 

In fact, most of them were so old and shabby that I wondered if they could withstand any storm or earthquake. 

“Sadly, that’s not the case. The mountains are occupied by strange creatures, so everything precious is kind of out of our reach,” he said, stopping the car in front of a beautiful gray mansion. It wasn’t too big, but it was fancy enough to make my jaw drop. 

“Weird creatures?” However, my focus returned to the main topic. 

“Yeah! Just stay away from the mountains. Our pack members don’t bother those creatures, and in return, they don’t bother us,” he advised, getting out of the car and holding the door open for me.
