Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144: I Choose ....... Me

(Author’s POV)

Myra was listening intently about Brave and his mate’s history, her eyes were rimmed red, unconsciously. Alaric paused midway when he saw her tear stricken eyes.

He analyzed her facial expression carefully, trying to decipher whether it was a genuine reaction or if she was acting. Alex, his wolf scream at his thoughts, ’Can’t you see she is on the verge of crying? What more proof do you want that she isn’t like other she wolves or like other humans?’ He was angry at Alaric. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Alaric brushed Alex in the back of his mind and continued after clearing his throat, "Ehem ehem ...... After Brave fainted, Dr. Andrew, with the help of other warriors rushed him to the pack hospital. He was given treatment and was even kept on ventilator for a day. Although, his condition stabilized afterwards, but after that he went into a prolonged coma for about week. When he got up, the first thing he asked about was Hannah’s whereabouts and well-being. He thought he had a nightmare and was eager to see her. But~" he pressed his lips in a thin line, not completing his sentence.

Myra questioned, her curiosity piqued, "She had already passed away? Didn’t you guys find anything about her? Her body or anything?"

Alaric looked her in the eyes and murmured, "I will not say she passed away but according to what Brave told us and what we have investigated so far, she has completely vanished. There is no trace or lead which can confirm her death or otherwise. Even her parents didn’t know anything about this. So, far the investigation is still going on but eventually, she is presumed dead based on Brave’s disappeared mate’s mark. Because the mate mark can only disappear when the other partner his dead."

Myra tilted her head, wiped off the tears from the corner of her eyes and said, "Ohh~kay, that was quite intense and sensitive information and I understand your brother have had a tragic relationship. And according to you, he used to have a fated mate. Doesn’t this prove that I am not Brave’s ’mate’. Which leads me back to my earlier question, why should I stay then?"

Alex purred, ’You are not. Because you are our mate."

Alaric was getting annoyed by his wolf’s persistent running commentary, he barked at him, ’Can’t you shut up? I am trying to have a civil conversation with her and you keep interrupting it.’

Alex pouted but didn’t breathe a word after that, because for Alaric to talk with such civility was rare, that too with Myra.

Alaric then turned to Myra who was already staring at him, asking, "What? What are you staring at?"

Myra’s eyes narrowed as she asked point blank, "Your eye color, it changed just now? How did you do that?" By this time, Myra didn’t feel odd about anything. She has accepted the fact that this family was weird and almost everything was possible within these walls. Like Alice in the Wonderland, it was easy for her to understand things like this.

"Uhhh~ .... I was talking to my wolf," he told Myra truthfully.

"Talking to your wolf? You are a wolf, right? So, why will you talk to yourself like that?" Myra gave him a puzzled look.

Alaric pondered for a bit and uttered, "That, I will tell you about it later. But what I was saying is. Brave has suffered a lot due to his traumatic experience and somehow managed to cope up a little bit. His and Hannah’s bond has already snapped and had created a void in his heart. It can be only fulfilled by one thing."

"And what is that?" Myra arched her eyebrow.

"After last night event, things have taken a drastic turn. He called you .... his .... his mate. I know he is mistaken. He wasn’t fully conscious. You can’t be his mate, no way. I know all that but if somehow there happens to be any sort of connection between you and him, that will complicate things. The people who harmed Hannah will come after you, I am sure of that. But, first and foremost, we need conformation," Alaric laid it all out in front of Myra.

A chill ran down her spine when she heard Alaric’s words. ’Is my life in danger? No, I am not his mate and all. Why will someone target me, a normal, average human?’ There was terror in her eyes.
