Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 48: The Mission Starts Now

(Author’s POV)

"Now that you have agreed to come with us, it is going to be so much fun" saying this, Nora grinned from ear to ear, feeling giddy inside. Alaric repeated her words, "Yeah, it’s definitely going to be a FUN trip, indeed."

"Okay Brother. I’ll go and prepare for tonight, see you, bye" Nora said her goodbyes and left Alaric’s room, feeling pumped up. As soon as the door was closed, Alaric’s previous loving and caring demeanor turned into a devil like sinister smile, "time to start devising my plan. The mission starts now."

Myra’s eyes widen realizing her predicament. She was surrounded by the Everests brothers on all sides. Elio was holding onto her right wrist while Dion was grasping her left arm. Brave was supporting her shoulder and Alaric was grabbing onto her waist. As if the time had stopped, all five of them stood still like some sculptor’s art piece.

Nora ran towards Myra, grabbing her shoulders, jerking her free from the brothers grasp, "Are you alright? I’m so, so sorry, Myra. I just, just saw Brother Alaric and got excited."

Myra took a deep breath and assured Nora, "Nor, why are you blaming yourself? See, I’m totally fine. Nothing happened to me."

"But, but-" Nora was about to go in her self-blaming mode but Myra hugged her, comforting Nora. "No buts, okay Nor?" Nora hugged Myra back. Then she let go of Nora and turned towards the brothers, "I guess, I should say thank you for earlier" she whispered these words.

Elio was the first one to reply, "No need for thanks, Myra. We have got your back, we won’t let you hurt." He smiled at Myra, his words holding deep meaning.

Myra only nodded at his words, but something stuck within her. She creased her eyebrows and asked, "But, it’s literally weird. Like how can all of you rescue me so fast? The person who was nearest to me was Nora, so how?" Myra looked at all of them, her hand on her hips, but no reply came for a few seconds.

All of a sudden, Dion burst out laughing trying to defuse the situation, "Hahaha Myra, you see, we all have gone through intense athletic training. So that’s why are reflexes are so good. You sound like you are interrogating us, haha. What, you don’t believe what I’m saying?"

Myra was not convinced with what Dion gave as an explanation, she threw another comment, "But the first one to reach me was-," she fumbled with her words and looked at Alaric, "was your elder brother, who was at quite a distance from all of us. No matter how athletic you all may be, covering such a long distance in mere seconds is-"

Nora interrupted Myra mid-sentence, "That, that’s because, Brother Alaric, he’s has been military trained, right brothers?" she was damn nervous and couldn’t look Myra in the eye, feeling guilty. Dion and Elio backed Nora’s words, adding some more details to it, "Yeah, you see, he’s the big gun amongst us siblings. He used to be one of the top tire, prominent, what do we call it, ahhhh, marshal."

Alaric looked at his younger siblings trying to cover up for him, though what they said was true, half true. He was an heir to the Lycan King throne, so he was a marshal for his pack members.

Brave reading the room changed the topic, asking Alaric, "Didn’t you say that you were busy and won’t be able to come?"

Nora too joined Brave, "Yes Brother, brother Dion told us that you wouldn’t make it to the trip because of company matters."

Alaric smiled at Nora kindly like a loving brother he was, "Ora, how can I let you down and break my promise?"

Dion scratched the back of his head and showed his tongue, "Nor, surprise. I asked brother to arrive here earlier so that we all can see your reaction. So, how do you like my prank?"

Nora feigned a punched at Dion stomach, "Haha, It was bad. Silly" she rolled her eyes at him, crossing her arms.

Elio and Alaric laughed at their antics, while Brave only smiled seeing his siblings bicker. Myra’s thoughts were all jumbled by what just happened and what the Everests siblings told her. freёnovelkiss.com

Nora held Myra’s hand, "this time, I’m won’t let go of your hand. Let’s go."

The place where they arrived was quite calming and refreshing. A large lake was just within their reach surrounded by a serene pink and navy sky. As it was evening time, most of the light was coming from either the half-moon or the lantern which were hanging beside the huge tents. The air quality was much better than the city as it was surrounded by dense forest. All in all, the place was beyond heavenly.

Myra took in a deep and long breath, feeling her surroundings. Her chaotic mind quieted a bit. Nora bended forward, tilting her head she looked at Myra as she asked, "How do you like it? Isn’t this place just gorgeous? Ahh, I, so, love it here."

Myra looked ahead at the clear sky and replied, "It’s really beautiful."

Elio came and stood with the girls, saying, "You know, there is no other place like this."

Dion joined the trio and stood on the other side, "You guys can always count on me" and winked.

Brave and Alaric were walking slowly, as the former asked, "Why did you do that?"

"Andddd, what’s that? What did I do?" Alaric asked casually, his hands in his jeans pocket as he walked like a runway model, his steps imposing. He was wearing a white tee and blue pair of jeans with black military boots.

Brave looked at Alaric, trying to decipher his actions, "Why did you ran to save her? Didn’t you hate humans? That’s so unlike you. Even in this morning-"

Alaric shrugged off Brave’s questions, "You are thinking too much. I just didn’t want any kind of mishap on this trip, you know, how Nora wanted it so badly." Brave observed him for a few seconds but didn’t pry any further.

Even though Alaric somehow was able to convince Brave, but he wasn’t able to convince himself, ’This is all because of this thick skinned wolf of mine. Alex, I told you not to do something like that?’

Alex growled at Alaric’s mean choice of words, ’I didn’t do anything. It wasn’t me. And even if it was, how can you expect me to just stand and watch our mate getting hurt.’

Alaric tone thickened, "She’s not my-".

’Yeah yeah, I know what you’ll say but do you really think it was I, who ran towards her?" Alex questioned Alaric confidently.
