Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 142: My One And Truly Love
Chapter 142: My One And Truly Love
(Brave’s POV)
"Mother, father, can’t I skip it?" I asked my parents. Hannah wasn’t invited to Black Rock Pack’s Alpha ceremony despite being my fated mate. So, I wasn’t any mood to go.
Though, Mom tried to persuade me, "No Brave, you cannot. You are going to be the next Lycan King so your presence is of importance to this event. They have invited all of us personally. See, even Al and Dio are going this time."
I pressed my lips in a tight line but didn’t say a word of protest. After all, it was within my duties as an Lycan heir to attend all significant gatherings and events. And as for not inviting Hannah, we hadn’t held any ceremony yet, so that could be a reason.
Reluctantly, I nodded my head in resignation, got up and left.
As soon as I got out, I mind linked my Hannah, "Hey babe, where are you?"
My loves, joyful and vibrant, melting voice echoed inside my head, "I am at the lake."
I didn’t say anything to her more and just made my way towards the lake at the back of the pack house.
In an army green tank top and black skinny fit jeans, my love was looking as sexy as always, a wide smile graced my face. I don’t know why, maybe it is because of the mate bond, but whenever I see her, my mind goes blank and I could only see her even if she is mingled within the crowd. Every time I see that radiantly beautiful smile, my heart skips a beat. She does things to me, that I have never imagined even existed.
I walked toward her and hugged her from behind, kissing her on her cheeks. Her pearl white teeth now visible by my actions. Then I made a trail of kisses all the way to the nape of her neck, where her mark way and licked.
She turned around kissed the tip of my nose and asked, "Why are you being all so touchy feely today? Did something happen?"
In response, I pulled her into a tight hug, embracing her lovingly. Her soothing rose scent eased my mind a lot, "Nothing much. It’s just I have to go to that Black Rock Pack’s Alpha’s coronation ceremony."
"Ohhh~kayyyy, that’s good. But why do you sound so troubled?" Hannah inquired without lifting her head.
Brave lowered my head and looked her in her dazzling satin grey eyes, "How can I leave you here?"
Hannah laughed at my statement as I pouted, "You sound like a toddler. It is just for two days. It will be gone in a blink," she reassured me. Though, something about leaving her didn’t feel right to me.
On the day of our departure, I took a detour and visited Hannah’s house to see her. She had just woken up from her slumber, I can tell. She was in her white pajama shorts and her face and eyes were puffy. She looks adorable.
"Weren’t you leaving for Black Rock today?" Hannah questioned with a puzzled expression. I simply got closer to her and pecked her lips, answering, "I was just on my way. Wanted to see you badly. So, now I will be taking my leave."
After that I didn’t waste any time and got into my car. Hannah waved at me, yelling, "I will be waiting." I smiled and dashed off.
Three hours later, I, alongside my siblings and parents reached Black Rock Pack. The place was jam packed as various luxurious cars were lined up. It didn’t surprise me at all. Black Rock Pack was the nouveau riche, who had climbed the social ladder just recently. So, they left no stone unturned and invited every prestigious family from werewolf world.
Alaric who had come with me, in my car, stood beside me and said, "Rave, they have splurged quite a bit to maintain appearances. I guess more that his coronation, it seems like he is trying to pick a mate for his sister, Genelia Cooper and sell her at a good price. Poor girl. She has such a cruel brother." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
I shook my head and looked at Alaric with a sympathetic look. He is way too out of tune in this love and mate game. He thinks everyone who wants to marry and is in love or trying to find their mate are just selling themselves in the marriage market. Poor guy. But I didn’t voice any of this out or else, he will start ranting about how all of this is just sham and bullshit. I simply patted his shoulders and we walked inside.
"Hey babe, have you arrived?" my love’s pleasant voice reverberated inside my mind. Her mere voice sends tingles through my senses.
"We just arrived. Where are you? Academy?" I asked her.
"Mm~hmm, yups. Mom called, so I was just about to head home," she informed me.
Her tone sounded a bit off and down so I inquired, "Did something happen? Should I come?"
She burst out laughing, "Hahaha, there is nothing serious. She is just feeling down, so I will take her to hospital for checkup. You, don’t even think about abandoning your duty for such a small thing and enjoy your time there. Okay, now I will be going. *muah*. Miss you."
"*Kisses* Love you, miss you," I replied and our mind link disconnected.
Alaric was looking at me all this time and said, his face crunched up, "Eekk, do you have to report everything to her?"
I tried to explain him, "Yeah, she is my mate. And for your kind information, I am not reporting anything to her. I am telling her."
"Whatever, it’s all the same anyway," he shrugged and commented.
The day went by pretty fast with all this mingling and talking with various other packs leaders. Everyone of us were busy. Mother and Father were talking to one of the elders. Dion was as usual showing his charm and flirting with other she wolves. I could tell my younger brother was having a good time. Elio was avoiding any contact with other she wolves. He is a shy kid, after all. And as for my twin brother, when I looked his way, he seemed pissed about something.
Several girls were around him trying to get his attention and fawning over him. His face told that he was disgusted by their lecherous attempts. Their intent was pretty clear. They wanted Alaric as their bed partner for the night and wanted to be linked with a Lycan Alpha. Now I get, why my brother hates having any mate and the word ’love’. These she wolves are doing everything to make him despise it even more.
I strode in his direction, eventually to help them before any of these girls gets the brunt of his temper, he was on the verge of yelling any minute. "Al, mother is calling for you."
He shoved those girls and made his way towards me while mind linking me, "Arghhhh .... That’s why I didn’t wanted to attend this shit, bloody leeches. They are just vultures in werewolf body, trying to get inside my pants."
I laughed at his face, ’Vultures .... Don’t you think it is a bit too much? They are just very fond of you, Al." I teased him.
He rolled his eyes at me and didn’t comment anything further.
The night went on like that, and so did the next morning as well as afternoon. I mind linked Hannah, attended meetings, small get togethers, sightseeing, taking pictures to show my babe later on.
At about seven in the evening, I changed into my all black tuxedo and made my way towards Alaric’s room. He was dressed up in navy colored blazer and same shade pants. After that, we both made our way towards the coronation venue, where the crowning ceremony will be held. Dion was busy flirting again and Elio was with his peers.
Seeing all these ladies in glamourous outfits, I thought of Hannah. If she was here tonight, she would have outshined everyone. I immediately mind linked her, wanting to hear her ear pleasing voice.
But when I tried to reach her, somehow, I couldn’t connect any link with her. It was as if she was blocking any external presence. I frowned. ’That’s odd. This has never happened before. Did something happen?" I tried calling her phone but she didn’t pick it up.
My face must have been etched with anxiety and tension as Alaric asked me, "Is something wrong? What’s got you so anxious?"
I scratched my neck and told him truthfully, "Hannah isn’t answering any of my calls."
He stared at me with a poke face and said, "She must be studying right now. Her exams are coming up."
I nodded at his words, it made sense. But there was a feeling of unease creeping in my heart. I don’t know why? Maybe, I just miss her too much and wants to be with her every second.
An hour passed by but still, there was no sign of Hannah. I got worried and decided to return home immediately. I told Alaric about it. He creased his brow and suggested, "I will come with you too."
I told him not to. If both of us weren’t present there would be drama and I didn’t want that to happen, at least not now. I told mother and father and the host as well about my urgent return.
He was graceful enough to understand my point and didn’t mind. I took off immediately and returned back.
