Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 98: Twenty Years Ago

(Author’s POV)

"Ms. Miracle, I will not deny anything, neither will I make any kind of excuse to you. As the Lycan King, I take full responsibility of the actions taken by me and my family, which have deeply hurt you as well as your sentiments. But~," Noah paused midway and took a seat beside his Luna, Sara.

Releasing a breath, he then continued further, "But, Ms. Miracle, what I am about to tell you from now on, you should listen to it and then decide for yourself, how do you want to handle things out. Can you do this much?" Saying this, he crossed his leg and sat like an elegant king he was.

Myra commented, it was more like a taunt, "As you said, Mr. Everests. Trust, once broken, cannot be mended easily. And in my case, the trust has not just been broken; it is shattered and crushed to million pieces and CAN NEVER BE MENDED. I don’t think, whatever you say or whatever any one else says, will change my mind, King or otherwise." Her words were impeccably clear, though her voice wavered a bit.

Sara pressed her lips and spoke in a regretful tone, "Myra, I know you do not want to listen to any of us and whatever we say to you, will only make you think that we are making excuses. But first, I want to tell you about last night. Our son, Brave Everests, he didn’t mean to harm you yesterday. I can assure you that, my Brave, he is the most humble and kindhearted wolf amongst the Lycan clan. He would never, never try to harm anyone innocent."

Myra countered, her voice a bit higher than usual, "But, ’ma’am’, your son ’did’ try to attack me. That~, that animal, that gigantic figure of his, he was chasing after me relentlessly, roaring and howling. He was gnawing his fangs at me. And, you are saying that he wasn’t on purpose? Then you tell me, if he wasn’t try to harm me or worse kill me, what were his actual intentions? Was he playing a game of tag with me? Is it what it was?" she feigned a laugh at the end, which echoed in the silent room. Her words were ruthless, making the temperature drop of the previously warm room.

Noah interrupted, "Ms. Miracle, we might have an inkling regarding, why Brave behaved like that towards you, but first, you need to know some background story." He patted Sara’s hand, comforting her.

The memory they were about to share was not particularly a fond one for the Everests family, especially for Sara.

Sara had suffered plenty of nightmares because of the time when Nora was kidnapped. It was the most painful and gruesome memory from her past. It was the biggest grievance of her life.

Sara cleared her throat and even out her breathing pattern, taking a minute to calm her unsettled nerves down.

With an unwavering voice, she then started, "Twenty years ago~"

*Twenty years ago*

At the Moon Shine Pack

Sara was busy humming a tune melodiously, as she was stitching a pretty violet colored layered frock, a size which was too small for an adult.

Noah, who was exhausted and dead tired because of the unending pack matters, took his golden framed glasses off of him and pinched his nose bridge and sighed restlessly.

He then looked at his wife with loving eyes, who was joyfully singing and humming in a low tone, her voice was just like a nightingale. His slumped shoulders and body felt rejuvenated by her mere presence, she was in the eighth month of her pregnancy.

It was the sixth year from them, being together and fifth year of their marriage and the love between those two was only increasing day by day, they were a true pair of love birds.

He got up at once from his office chair and made his way towards his Luna, settling beside her. Sara was in her own mini world, thinking about the babies inside her belly. Though, she has had three sons already and she loved all of them dearly, Sara was excited to finally have a daughter of her own. She was singing some random song about having a girl and boy, and them wearing match outfits. That’s why she was preparing those things for her unborn children.

Noah gently and softly patted Sara’s silky smooth hair, as the latter looked his way and gave him a dazzlingly beautiful smile. With her eyes twinkling and the smile still intact, she asked fondly, "Are you done with the work already, honey?"

Noah’s hand trailed from her hair to her right cheek, as he caressed it with his thumb, answering, "Not done, yet." Unknowingly, he was smiling like an utter fool. "I just wanted to listen to your voice closely. What are you making?"

Sara blushed at his words. She then excitedly started rambling, "This~, this is for our daughter. On her first birthday, she will wear this. I am going to make a boy’s version for our son too, with the same color and pattern. Wouldn’t it look just lovely on them? They are going to be the most gorgeous pair of twins in the whole of werewolf clan, my babies. I can’t wait to see them any longer."

Noah added, seeming like he was disagreeing, "They won’t be the most gorgeous twins in the werewolf clan." Sara frowned at his words but he continued, "Our kids are going to be the most gorgeous and lovely pair of twins, on this whole the planet."

Sara’s smile deepened, listening to her husband, "Yeah, they really will." Then, she stirred the conversation to an important pack matter, "Noah, have the council come to an agreement with the Half Shade Lunar Pack? Are they still adamant on taking up the land owned by the lower tribes?"

Noah didn’t wanted to stress Sara in any way possible and have been trying to avoid discussing any kind of pack matter in front of her.

After all, it was her fourth pregnancy and during Dion’s birth, she have had lost a lot of blood. So, the chances for her to conceive were quite low.

But by the grace of the moon goddess, she was once again expecting and that too twins. So, Noah was always being cautious and attentive in this regard. "We are discussing this with them and it is going better than before. So don’t worry about these things. Just focus on your health, sweetheart. Your due date is only a month from now."

Sara was the one responsible to look after the pack business but when she was in her first trimester; she had a near and fatal chance of miscarriage.

One day she was found collapsed in her study; blood was gushing and trailing from between her legs. When Noah came to see her, taking a half day, and found her laying on a cold floor, passed out, his mind flipped. Sara’s limp body was surrounded by a pool of crimson. His blood ran cold and without wasting any time he took her to the pack hospital.

After two hours of intense surgery, Dr. Andrew somehow managed to save their unborn children and Sara. But he reprimanded Noah for putting Sara in a stressful situation. Her pregnancy was a difficult one and Greg specifically mentioned to avoid any tensed matter. But as she was the mother of the pack, she couldn’t just leave her duties.

Noah silently listened to his scolding and thanked him for saving Sara. Though, he was a proud Lycan King and wouldn’t take shit from others. He knew what Greg said was reasonable as Sara’s attending doctor.

So, when Sara got discharged and returned home after a week, he discussed this with her and they both agreed that he will handle the pack matters alongside Everests Cooperation’s business. At that time, Everests cooperation wasn’t as stable and big, like now.

Sara was hesitant at first and didn’t wanted to put burden on Noah alone, but after getting assurance from her husband, she complied.

Noah promised her, that he would make his Beta, Matthew, interim managing director for the company. As for the pack business, he would look after it personally and if needed he would ask for her advice on things.

Since taking matters in his own hands, Noah would tell Sara about all the progress but would always omit the complex and stressful matters. He was just too frightened and cautious for his wife’s wellbeing.

He was a newly made Lycan King and was not accustomed to official pack business because his deceased father didn’t let him attend any pack meetings.

But Sara trusted his judgment fully; after all he was a capable and kind king. She always supported him in her own way, reassuring him at every turn that he was doing well and that it was okay to sometimes make mistakes.

But Noah wanted to a perfect Lycan King for his perfect Luna and for his pack people. And that perfection led to a lifelong and deep scar for the family and entire pack.
