Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 146: Isn’t She A Human?
Chapter 146: Isn’t She A Human?
(Author’s POV)
"Have a safe journey, human,’ Alaric uttered softly, a smile gracing his lips which didn’t reach his eyes.
Myra felt oddly suspicious by his change in behavior. One minute he was forcing her to stay and ordering her like a servant and now he was wishing her well with that joltingly creepy smile lingering on his mouth, ’Does he have that illness called bipolar disorder? He gives me the chills, in every bad way possible,’ she was utterly perplexed by his shift.
Alaric not minding anyone, just walked out elegantly and drove off.
Sara and Noah didn’t say anything to him or on his sudden departure. They knew better that he already wasn’t fond of Myra and didn’t want her to stay and now that his wish was getting fulfilled, he was overjoyed. They were in no mood to have another confrontation and decided to let him be.
Myra looked at her phone and interrupted their silent talk, "Ahhh .... Looks like my cab is here. Mr. Everests, Mrs. Everests, thank you for having me at your place." She then looked back at Dion and Elio nodded at them. Each of them had complex expressions on their faces.
Her eyes turned towards a stumped Nora and she walked towards her, her footing calm and detached.
Standing in front of Nora, she was a bit overwhelmed with emotion. She never expected her two week trip to Nora’s biological family house would turn like that. Not even once did Myra thought that her and Nora’s friendship would be jeopardized because of her blood family and their identity.
It was difficult for Myra because their friendship meant everything to her. She even called herself Nora’s soulmate.
Licking her lips and clearing her throat, Myra began, her eyes fixated on Nora’s slumped figure, "Nora, I am glad you found your real family and they all love you so dearly. I am so happy for you that you are where you truly belong. I hope you remain happy as well as healthy. My trip wasn’t what I expected it to be but I have learnt a lot of lessons. Goodbye."
At the end of her heartfelt, raw words, Myra’s eyes were tinged red as a tear drop was about to fall off from the corner of her eyes. She quickly turned around not waiting for any response and made her way towards the door.
She didn’t notice Nora’s pale, ashen face and just rushed out.
Nora, who was in her trance mode snapped out of it when she realized Myra was leaving. She dashed out frantically, others followed her behind.
Myra was about to enter the vehicle when Nora yelled, her eyes brimmed with tears, "MYRA, Wait~."
Myra stopped but didn’t look back, clenching her fists, her nails were digging in her palms. She took a deep and long breath and then turned around.
Nora came closer and stood right in front of Myra. She started, her voice shaky but was filled with determination, "Myra, I will do everything you said. I will be happy as well as healthy and become the best version of myself. I know I have disappointed you in more than one way, but I will try to change and be the person whom you will be proud of. The next time when we meet again, I hope I will be able to gain your trust. I will do everything to win it back, your trust as well as your forgiveness."
Myra’s throat was choked, listening to Nora’s words. The girl who would always throw a tantrum and was goofy as hell, was uttering such deep words of wisdom and grit, she was overwhelmed by it. She thought, ’I guess that saying is after all true, everything happens for a good reason.’
Myra smiled at her and extended her hand for a handshake. Nora’s eyes widened as she grabbed Myra’s hand happily. Nothing more was said between them and after a brief moment of emotional goodbye, Myra entered the cab. For the first time, in a long while, she was feeling lighthearted and not burdened.
She gave all the Everests present a curt but honest smile and the car went off.
As soon as the cab crossed the main gate, the tears that were itching to fell, started pouring like a fountain.
The driver wasn’t surprised but he felt bad for her. He tried to say some comforting words, "Ma’am, your family must love you very dearly. For you to be so reluctant to leave them." Myra didn’t reply, just kept on crying.
He was lost for words and let Myra have her emotional moment.
They passed by the thick and dense woods as Myra looked out of the windowsill with several thoughts brimming inside her head. She lowered the window and in came the soft and gentle breeze calming her mind and emotions greatly.
At some distance, someone was watching her every move. As soon as the cab came out of the mansion, that person has been keeping an eye on her intently.
Their eyes glinted with malice as they followed the car discreetly.
On the other side, at the Everests pack house, two grey haired men with distinct and imposing expressions came. Sara and Noah were already informed about their visit as so was the siblings.
"May the moon goddess’s blessings be with you, Lycan King and Luna of the Moon Shine Pack," both elderly men greeted Sara and Noah and kneeled on one knee with their head lowered.
"May the blessings be with you," Noah replied. "You may rise."
They both followed Noah’s order and got up. With an imposing and deliberate tone, one of them started, "King Noah, you called us stating that you have something of importance to discuss. What’s it about?"
"Elder Maximus Corbin, let’s go to my office to discuss that," Noah said, his tone authoritative.
Both Elder Maximus and the other person nodded and them, Noah and Sara made their way towards the home office room.
Once the door was closed, Dion’s wolf Drey cursed at them, ’These old geezers. They have such bad timing. They should have arrived ten minutes earlier. At least, then there would have been a reason to make Myra stay for a bit long.’
Dion looked at his phone and was busy searching for the flight schedule to Damona.
Elio returned back to Brave’s room while Nora made her way towards the back lake.
Inside the office, Noah took his seat as Sara settled beside him. The two elders settled just opposite them, there face neutral.
Sara started with a question, "Why didn’t Elder Eleanor Moore come with you?"
"She had something more urgent to attend to, Luna Sara," the other elder said while raising his eyebrow. "So, what is the matter?" Though, he said it politely but his tone was off.
Noah was keenly observing their attitudes and said, "Elder Clement Sanders, do you have somewhere to go?"
Clement turned flustered and said hurriedly, "King Noah, no~ no, absolutely not. I just wanted the know the urgent matter. My apologizes for any misunderstanding."
Noah shrugged his behavior off and started, his face serious, "You already know about Brave’s former mate and his wolf’s disappearance? There is some development on that topic."
Maximus and Clement ears perked up as their eyes turned keen.
It was Sara’s turn to speak, "Last night something happened near the mansion." She paused and said, "Brave was attacked by some shady wolves and has been getting treatment. The wolves fled off and are still unidentified." Maximus and Clement frowned as Clement commented, "Attacked? How can someone attack a Lycan, although he doesn’t have a~" he stopped midway realizing he had said too much.
"Although, he was attacked but there is good news. His wolf, Raw, who has been unconscious ever since that incident, he has woken up," Sara declared, her voice proud as she looked at Clement.
Clement clenched his jaw. He tried smiled at Sara and said, sounding overly zealous, "His wolf is awake. That’s great news Luna."
Maximus elbowed him and told him to tone it down a bit. He asked, his curiosity piqued, "How did that happen?"
Both Noah and Sara gazed at each other for a brief moment. Then looked at the elders, "That is why we called for a meeting with you. After the attack happened, Nora and her friend were outside the mansion, strolling and found him in that state. You see, we have found the rare black opal and Brave was wearing it around his neck. But his wolf didn’t respond."
"Then how did he wake up?" Maximus urged.
"Nora’s friend, when she touched that pendant, it shattered and in that moment his wolf woke up. But as soon as he came to consciousness he said something. He called, Nora’s friend, his mate," Noah told them.
"That means, Princess’s friend is young Alpha’s second chance mate. That is great news. Now young Alpha can resume his heir duties," Maximus was overjoyed.
But Clement expression soured, "Princess’s friend? The famous goddess daughter, is she the one?"
"Yes, she is," Noah said.
Maximus’s smiled drooped as his expression turned grim, "Isn’t she a human? How can she be a werewolf’s mate? That’s impossible."
