Tasting 13
13-Boo**es On Display Nora: I sat on the cold, wet floor for an hour, listening to the car hitting the road and Nash blasting the music in the car. It must have been the biggest accomplishment of his life. My bottom was frozen from the cold, and my body was covered in goosebumps. I kept staring at the blue zircon in my finger. I even played with it a few times. I wanted to break the door, but being a weak she-wolf as I was introduced, I just sat helplessly. As two hours passed, Nash had met up with his brothers. “Where is that clingy she-wolf?” I heard Ryker ask Nash. “She is not coming. Nash replied, sounding c**ky: “But dad said this whole evening was for her Silas joined the conversation while I was left locked in the bathroom. “Well, let that day be a lesson to dad that he should not rely on that woman’s daughter,” Nash was beginning to sound c***ier with every passing minute “Did you do som-thing?” Ryker asked. “Why? Did you to I would bring her here and let her showcase her amazing skills of mping her chest out and putting her 13 Boots On Display 200 Woucheri boobs on display to make the council feel amazed by her as well?” It surprised me that Nash thought that is what I was doing with their father. I hugged myself in disgust, saddened by his portrayal of me. “I even brought her speech,” Nash continued. “I want to be a part of this speech,” Ryker instantly chimed in. “Why? It was my idea. I did the hard work,” Nash yammered, his tone turning defensive.
They didn’t seem close to me, not especially when Silas added, “If you didn’t give us half of it, we will be left with no choice but to tell dad why she couldn’t come.” They were even blackmailing each other? Why was I so upset at the betrayal of my stepbrother then? They were not even genuine and loyal to each other. “Fine. Take it, but I warn you, she has a very bad handwriting,” Nash continued to insult me as if locking me all alone in the mansion wasn’t enough. “Don’t worry about that. Since Silas will be tutoring her and healing herrwof, he will make her learn to write,” Ryker commented. “I will surely teach her by breaking her fingers if she wrote like this in front of me,” Silas grunted. I felt this weird anger surge through me when remembering my childhood. Having so many stepbrothers didn’t help my case. If anything, I was still getting bullied by not only the students at school but by my so-called brothers as well. 15 59 28 “Anyway, she is on call. I mean, she can hear us,” Nash then tapped his fingers on the phone, and they started laughing at me. “Hello, little sister. Hope you are not crying and angry at your stepbrothers. You see, brothers are rough usually so you need to get used to that,” it was Ryker making fun of my condition before he silenced when their father arrived. “Nash! Where is Nora?” his voice reeked of concern. I straightened my back when hearing him, maybe watching his misery would prompt at least one of the brothers to come rescue me. I will still be able to make it even if I am hours late. “She didn’t want to come,” however, my hopes died the moment Nash opened his mouth. “Huh?” Lord Atwood groaned. “She tried on the dress and got upset because it didn’t fit her chest,” his constant attempts to talk
about my breasts made. me very uneasy. I never intentionally put my breasts on display. “Then you should have asked her to try the white dress,” Lord. Atwood sounded worried from the beginning. The hesitation in his voice broke my heart. “I did. She said Ryker had dirtied it by dragging it. I event suggested we go and grab something quick from the pack. house’s wardrobe but she refused. She said she felt like we weren’t giving her enough importance like she deserved,” Nash kept lying and made my heart s**p a beat. “But I am giving her importance,” obviously, the night was important and seeing me not arrive had upset Lord Atwood. “She doesn’t want that attention. She wants luxuries, dad. She told me I should come back when I am ready to respect her,” Nash sounded so low, I didn’t know he had any interest in acting as well. “Let me call her and talk to her,” thankfully, dad decided to give me a chance. “Her phone is busy,” I slapped my forehead when remembering. how I was able to hear their conversation. “She called her friends the moment she pushed me out of her bedroom,” Nash quickly made up more lies, forming goosebumps all over my skin. “But she told me she has no friends,” dad’s energy was beginning to drain. “Are we surprised that she lied?” it was Cain speaking to his father now, “it was pretty obvious that she was acting all innocent in front of you. She even made Nash and I get into an argument.” His statement was followed by a grunt from Nash because even he knew that Cain wasn’t as innocent as he was attempting to seem. But right now, they had one common enemy that they wanted to get rid of. Their stepsister. “I even told the council that she wanted to give a speech,” hearing such low murmurs from Lord Atwood, who had so much. trust in me, shattered my heart. “Don’t worry, we have already come up with an idea. We will do a speech for our father,” Silas, who hadn’t even been acting a tad bit respectful towards his father, uttered.
“You guys will give a speech thanking me?” Since I knew that the brothers hadn’t been nice towards their father in years, I knew how much this speech would mean to him. All the whil: he was thinking I had let him down because all I wanted was luxuries. The next two hours were just filled with agony, especially when the brothers finished the speech and their father teared up. The entire hall erupted with cheers and I cried softly on the cold floor. I didn’t want to be mistreated, but I guess, after tonight, I cannot be a part of their family anymore. So I decided, I will move out like
