Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 82: As If He Was Dead
Chapter 82: As If He Was Dead
(Author’s POV)
"How can specie of a human kind enter the pack’s forest at this time and in this weather at that?" Alaric was taken aback by the unusual scent that was wafting through the air. He rummaged through the path and at some distance saw a moving figure of someone, so he sprinted to catch them. But before he could reach the figure, that person was fast and disappeared in a zap, which alarmed both Alaric and Alex.
’No normal human being can move that fast. We have to be careful’ Alex commented. Alaric agreed with him. It was dark, nearly pitch black around Alaric and even he, as a Lycan wolf was having difficulty in seeing things clearly but that person just vanished into thin air. This was not a simple thing.
Nevertheless, his prime focus was to find his brother right now. So, he took a moment, observed his surroundings again, sniffed the damp and moist air and started searching for Brave once again, with more determination and calmness.
As he went inside further and further, he realized that the path would lead to the lake that was attached to the back side of the mansion’s greenhouse.
’Alaric, do you remember? Nora mentioned, she would take our mate to the lake and talk with her alone there about that identity reveal thing. The dinner must have been over by now and Nora and Myra must be there at the lake.’ Alex’s voice was serious. Alaric did not correct Alex this time for calling Myra their mate. His mind was entirely engrossed on the safety of his siblings and Myra.
’Then we must not waste anymore time, the girls are in danger and so is Brave.’ Alaric uttered with clenched teeth. He felt heaviness in his heart, the thought of something happening to his people was agonizing for him. So, without further ado, he made his way towards the back side of the pack’s greenhouse.

Inside the study room, Dion was about to tell Noah and Sara regarding Myra being his fated mate. But before he could say anything about the topic, Dion received Nora’s message and instantly he and Drey understood, ’Something is wrong out there’ His ears perked up.
He turned his back to his parents and headed towards the door as he started running right away without explaining anything to them. Both Noah and Sara sensed something was off about his behavior, so they too followed Dion behind hurriedly. Sara asked, "What happened, Di?"
"Mom, Dad. Nora just mind linked me saying that there was a problem. You guys wait here, I will go to the lake and check up on them real quick" and without anymore word, he was out of the mansion and heading towards the forest.
Though, Dion tried his best to not create any panic, Sara was petrified listening to the words he said before departing. Only one thought arose in her mind, she mumbled, "It must be them, they are after my daughter again. This can’t be, I won’t let it happen again. Noah, our daughter is in danger."
Both Noah and Sara left the mansion too and headed towards the lake, there steps were quick and agile, "Not this time. I will tear apart anyone and everyone who will try to harm my daughter." Noah grunted.

At the Lake
There was silence and only the sound of rain falling and touching the still lake, creating ripples, could be heard. Nora murmured lightly, "Ra-ra, you know I treasure you the most in this world and can do anything for you. I mean every single word of it."
Myra was listening to Nora’s heartfelt words in silence as Nora added, "Myra, I have something very important to tell you. I have been suppressing this secret about me for a while~" but she was halted in the middle of her confession by the sound of someone’s grunting.
Both Myra’s and Nora’s focus shifted to the voice as they became super alert. They stood up and looked all around them.
Myra was frightened by the animal like voice, as she trembled, freaking out "What was that? Did you hear it too? Was that a wild animal?" Her eyes turned red from fear.
Nora’s wolf, Aura, sensed something unusual, ’It is definitely a wolf’s voice.’ She searched for the source as she sniffed the air, the painful howling again happened, the air was filled with bloody odor of someone.
Instantly, she called out to her brothers, connecting to them with mind link, "Brothers, there’s a problem. Come fast."
The growling sound carried with the cold wind was truly chilling. Myra held Nora’s hand tightly; she was shielding her friend as she said, "We have to get out of here. It is not safe. Whatever you have tell me, I’ll listen to you. But, right now, we have to go back to your house." Myra was scared but her first and initial thought was to protect Nora.
Saying that she started running towards the way they came from, her hand grasping Nora’s hand firmly. But as Myra reached the wooden gate and tried to open it, they found it was locked from the inside. Her eyes widened as she was desperately pulling the handle to somehow open it, clinging to it.
Nora too was in shock but a little less than Myra. She asked Myra to step aside and tried to pull on the gate, but even with her enormous strength the normal looking wooden gate didn’t budge at all, as if it was sealed. Her brows creased, as Aura uttered, ’Someone has put a spell around this place. Such a powerful spell can be casted by someone with immense power. It is an alchemist, there is an alchemist here. This place is no more safe. We have to take Myra out of here, she is in danger.’
Understanding Aura’s concern, Nora grabbed Myra’s wrist and started running towards the opposite side.

Inside the forest
Half an hour ago
Brave, who was half awake and half unconscious, heard someone’s sickly laughter, "Hahaha haha hahaha, we came here to clean up that human junk for her but we have hit a jackpot for ourselves. The previous heir of the Everests is in our hands now. He is so weak and almost lifeless; no wonder he was stripped of from his position as the future Lycan King. Hahahaha, these bloody Lycans see themselves as someone who is blessed by the moon goddess and want to rule the entire werewolf kind. They want everyone to follow them and listen to their orders. Because of them, countless of my rogue brothers have lost their lives. Now that the eldest of those arrogant Lycan siblings is in our hand, why are we wasting time and not killing him." His voice turned edgy and full of pain as well as malice.
"Damien, calm down. We cannot kill him without the boss’s order." The other man with a rough and rowdy voice calmed the one named Damien.
"CALM DOWN? You, Victor Smith, you are asking me to calm down. They have done worst things to you and your family and you still want me to calm down? They disfigured your mother’s face and your sister was raped and dragged and displayed in front of all the pack people, naked. They tortured your father to until he was almost dead, dismembering his body parts one by one and you asshole, you are saying I should calm down. Don’t you have a spine? You spineless, piece of shit. It is them who ruined you. It is them who ruined and completely destroy your family, dammit." Damien roared, getting angry for the one named Victor.
Victor Smith’s hands clenched at Damien words, he was enraged. The humiliation his family faced at the hands of these Lycan wolves was irreversible and tattering. Damien words triggered his past memories and the flash black of his family’s torment blurred his vision. He walked up to Brave, grabbed him by his collar which was soaked in dry blood and started punching him like a mad beast, each one more fierce than the first.
Brave who was pretending to be unconscious was getting hit after hit, mercilessly. He was lacking in strength because of the injury and his own trauma, so he could only grunt in pain.
His voice only further intensified Victor’s hatred for the Lycan wolves. He shoved Brave to the wet and sticky ground and was slapping and hitting him like crazy. Brave was trying to shield his face and head, but Victor’s punch landed on his eye, bruising it. In a sequential manner, Victor jabbed at his eye socket, then his cheeks, then his nose and then his jaws.
Brave was bleeding profusely at this point and all of his body was in gruesome pain. Victor was satisfied seeing the blood seeping out of Brave’s mouth and nose. He got up, dusted his clothes, spitting at the other side. He then turned his head towards Damien, "This is how much I hate them. But we have a mission to complete, right now. And he has to stay alive for now. No Lycan in this world will die this easily. They have to suffer like I have, like you have."
Brave coughed harshly, his colorless figure was crying in pain. He clutched onto the black opal pendant, calling out, "Raw, come out and help me. Show them, we are not weak. RAWWWWWWW. I need you."
Hearing Brave’s mumbling Damien was irritated, he came close to Brave and kicked his rib cage with his foot harshly, "What are you rambling, you useless wolf?
With another kick to his shin, Damien grumbled loudly, "Have not had enough? Got so much strength, huhhh? Lycan trash let me show you a rogue’s power." Saying this, Damien ruthlessly stepped on to his injured arm, which made the red liquid flow from Brave’s sturdy but limp arm again. He was in so much pain as he started hyperventilating once again.
He kept on muttering, "RAAWWWWWW, HANNAAAAHHHHHH, MYRAAAAA" But his wolf did not give him any reaction as if he was dead.
