Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 141: Hannah Elingworth

(Author’s POV)

"Look~ *sigh*, I know I have not been very nice to you, all this time. I don’t know how to say sorry and all. But the thing I want to tell you, it is quite important for you to know before making any decision about leaving or staying back," Alaric muttered.

Myra looked dead in his eyes and crossed her arms impatiently. She kept tapping her foot in frustration and said, "Out with it then. What do you have to say to me now?" she thought he was trying to play another of his tricks with him.

All of a sudden, while looking around and checking something, Alaric leaned forward and whispered near Myra’s ear, his voice raspy and sultry, "There are too many people lingering here. So ....., let’s go inside your room and talk."

Myra’s body turned rigid for first few seconds. His masculine voice had sent shiver down her spine. Composing herself, she narrowed her hazel eyes at Alaric’s suggestion, ’Inside my room? What are his intentions now?’

She didn’t wanted to have any kind of talk with him alone. After all, he wasn’t very fond of her, he has shown it pretty much every time they met. But his words made her heart stir, she was curious to know what he was planning. She pondered for a bit, ’Let’s just talk inside and see what does he wants? If he tries to cross any line, I will scream and call his family." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Biting her lower lip, with a slightly agitated expression, Myra mumbled, "Step aside, then."

Alaric, like a disciplined kid, at once stepped aside. He was behaving untrue to his nature. Like whenever Myra said anything in the past, he would behave like a rebel but this time he wasn’t doing any of that.

Myra looked at him with skepticism. She watched him from head to toe one last time before pushing her door open. She entered the room, her steps light and quick. She kept the door a bit ajar.

Alaric followed her like a lost child, striding behind her quietly.

He shut the door quietly behind him and strode inside. Myra made her way towards her almost packed bags. She turned around to look at him coldly, "Spew your reason for visiting my room." Saying this, she started packing remaining of her stuff.

Alaric looked at her intently for a moment. Then, he strode towards her, his steps decisive. He came closer and closer to Myra. Myra knew it but she didn’t halt her actions, though her hands tightened on her suitcase.

Alaric stood just a hands distance away from her. She was about to shout for help when he grabbed her busy hand and stopped her midway. His touch was light but firm. Myra looked at him with contempt in her eyes, "Is this you wanted to do? Let go. LET GO OF ME NOW, ALARIC. Otherwise, I’ll scream for help."

She wanted to punch him, scratch him or defend herself somehow but she knew better than anyone else about how powerful Alaric was, his strength was immense. After all, the one who intervened Brave’s wolf from attacking Myra was Alaric, in his full wolf form.

He was raven furred beast. Myra had never seen something like that before.

Alaric let go of her hand and said in a mild tone, "I am here to talk but you are packing your stuff. So, how can I converse with you? Let’s just sit and then I’ll tell you."

"I don’t have any time to waste Mr. Alaric Everests. I have some unpacked stuff to pack. You can go on with your talk. I will do what I want," she reprimanded him.

Alex didn’t like her packing her bag either. He didn’t want his mate to leave him. He was desperate to make her stay. Alaric felt his wolf’s anxiety. He walked a step closer, his eyes still locked with Myra’s.

His hand was still grabbing her wrist. All of a sudden, he pulled her towards him. Myra was caught off guard by his abrupt move. She opened her mouth to scream but Alaric firmly held her mouth, placing his other hand on it, "I promise I am here just to talk. I won’t do anything."

Myra’s eyes bored into his, they were filled with rage and irritation. Biting his hand, she shouted at him, "Promise, haha? I can believe anyone but you. And, don’t you ever dare to touch me, Alaric Everests." She pulled herself forcefully from his grasp.

Alaric didn’t confront her. He didn’t even seem angry even after all that lashing.

"Okay, relax I won’t touch you," he assured her. Striding towards the couch, he settled there and patted the place, "Sit down and then we will talk."

Myra didn’t move an inch. Alaric sighed at her reluctance. He got up, dragged the dresser chair and placed it near Myra, "At least, sit on this." Myra arched an eyebrow with amusing look, she scoffed lightly at his actions, ’Unbelievable. What has gotten into him? He is behaving totally like a different person.’

She seated while Alaric took a seat on the couch. Alaric with his gaze still on her began, "Brave, my brother, he has had a rough time because of this fated mate and stuff. You see, my parents didn’t tell you this because they don’t want to burden you but I think you should know about this."

’What’s with those fancy words of care? He is behaving utterly suspicious.’ Myra’s thoughts reeled towards his sudden change.

Alaric, on the other hand, didn’t know how to tell her about Hannah. He was finding difficult to find the right words. ’Let’s get this over with,’ her thought.

"My brother has had a mate before," He started again, his voice serious. Myra’s eyes flinched at his statement but she didn’t say anything and let him continue.

"Her name was Hannah Elingworth and she was also a werewolf. You see, finding a true mate, blessed by the moon goddess is a rare occurrence in today’s century. But Brave gladly did find his. They were deeply in love and all was going well until one night everything changed," his voice took a turn from being serious to solemn. He clenched his fist reminiscing the incident. "You see, people who are mated are deeply connected."

He glanced Myra’s way to see her detached expression. No surprise, no frown, simply nothing.

But inwardly, Myra’s thoughts were buzzing and on high alert. All of a sudden, she regretted being her curious self. But somehow, she managed to keep herself calm. She seemed disengaged on the outside.

Clearing his throat, he stated further, "About half a year ago, our family was invited to a gathering. It was out of territory and each of us got invited personally, so everyone had to attend. It was a two day event and none of us was at the mansion during that time period."

"Can’t you speed up a bit? I have some things to do," Myra wasn’t interested in his rambling. She wanted to know the point. She had a odd feeling about this Hannah.

This time Alaric couldn’t resist but comment, "Can’t you be a little patient? Why do you behave so differently with others and so irritated with me? You were the one who said you wanted to be civil with me. Now you are breaking those words."

Myra’s sneered and scoffed to his face, "Haha, you are funny and delusional. Don’t you know why? You are rambling for so long, just get to the point."

Alaric gritted his teeth in frustration while his wolf, Alex laughed rolling on the floor. He thought, ’Serves him right. He deserves every bit of that statement. Good going, Mate.’ But he didn’t dare to say it out loud. He didn’t want to spoil Alaric’s mood.

Because it was Alex who had convinced Alaric to tell Myra about Brave and Hannah’s tragic past.

Alaric agreed to his suggestion but his motive was different from Alex’s. He wanted to test Myra. That was the reason why he showed such rare patient and persistence. "Although, Hannah was his mate, she wasn’t invited and had to be left behind. Brave wanted to decline the invitation but his presence was necessary as he was the heir to the Lycan throne. Reluctantly, he joined us all."

*The day of Hannah’s disappearance*

On the first day, nothing particular happened. The day went by smoothly. Brave and Hannah talked through mind link. Next day again, nothing happened, but around eight or eight thirty, Brave contacted Hannah but she stopped replying to any of his mind links or answer any of his calls. He eventually got worried and returned early.

Brave reached Hannah’s home but she wasn’t there. Her family members weren’t aware about Everests family’s absence so they thought she was with Brave. After knowing that Brave returned home. But when he got near the mansion, he felt his heart started acting up and his mate mark burned like hell. He immediately knew, something was wrong with Hannah.
