Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155: But, Why Myra?

(Author’s POV)

"I warned you not to visit me. Then, what are you doing here?" Myra snapped at Alaric as she questioned him. Her tone sharp like a blade.

"Your phone isn’t working. Your family must be worried about you. You should give them a call," Alaric exhaled a sigh as he extended his hand and gave Myra his phone to make a call.

Myra’s mouth agape, she was confused by his sudden tenderness. Her eyes flickered but she shut down any thought immediately, ’Don’t fall for his humble behavior, Myra. You know first hand what type of a person is he, if I can even call him a ’person’. He is just trying to gaining my trust.’

She snatched his cellphone from his hand and said, her tone commanding, "Back off."

Alaric didn’t like the tone but still obliged, stood and walked two paces back, giving her enough space. She glared at him for few seconds, then turned her attention towards his phone, which was eventually locked.

She extended her hand again and said, "Password."

Alaric punched his password and return it to her. Myra was about to call Sandra Miracle when she saw Alaric still standing. She looked at him and said, firmly, "I want to talk to my parents, alone. Leave."

He leisurely walked, switched on the light and settled himself on the couch, stating, "I will be just here, waiting. You can take your time with the call. I won’t interrupt you."

Myra was frustrated but what could she do. Her priority was to tell her parents about her delay. She knew very well that Sandra and William must be worried sick, trying to contact her. She sighed turned her body away from him and called her mother’s number.

After four rings, someone’s anxious voice was audible from the other end, "Hello, who~, who is this?"

Myra’s shoulders started shaking as she suppressed her urged to cry hearing her mother’s voice. She cleared her throat and tried to sound more cheerful than she normally would, "Mom, it’s me Myra."

Sandra’s piercing voice reached the other end, even Alaric could hear it, "My~ra, sweetheart. It is you. Where are you? Where is your phone? Do you know we have been calling you since afternoon but no one answered. Your dad went to the airport to get you but you weren’t on that flight? Are you alright, my baby? Did something~ .... Did something happen to you?"

Myra’s eyes were teary but she still managed to compose herself and said, "I am so sorry mom. My phone slipped off the first floor and is not in working condition. I just called you from Nora’s family’s number. My flight ticket .... The ticket had some issue, so I will have to stay for two more days. I know, I promised you we would have dinner together. I am sorry, I couldn’t keep my words."

"You are fine. That’s the only thing that matters to us, my child. As for the dinner, we can do it after you arrive. You don’t need to stress over it, okay. But you should have given a call. Your dad and Wendy are out to make a missing person’s complaint," Sandra told her.

Myra clenched the phone tightly as her voice turned regretful, "Mom, I am sorry."

Sandra sighed and dropped the topic, "I guess it is night time there. I won’t disturb you any longer. You should rest. And if anything happens, just call us, okay?" Sandra voice was gentle and loving.

Myra reassured Sandra, "Mom, I will surely give you a call, don’t take tension. I will definitely be back in two days and this time I won’t break my promise."

"Okay, we will wait for you. You must have had a long day. Goodnight my child," Sandra said soothingly.

"Take care," Myra replied and disconnected the call and started sniffling.

Alaric was keenly listening to her exchange with her mother. His eyes were fixated on her back which felt small and weak. She sobbed and his heart ached.

Realizing that she wasn’t alone in that room, she wiped her tears off. She shifted her head towards Alaric, her eyes turned cold as they landed on him who was in a dazed state.

"You can go now," Myra’s cold voice rang inside the room as she raised her hand to give his phone back.

Alaric didn’t get up. He sighed and said, "I want to have a talk."

"I do not want to talk to you. Just leave," Myra was adamant as she turned his request down. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Alaric pursed his lips and gave Myra a long glance. He wanted to ask her about earlier incident, about the time freeze. How was she able to move when even he couldn’t?

He got up, walked towards her slowly, took his phone. He was going away when Myra stopped him midway, "Wait~"

Alaric looked back and gestured, "Hmm?"

"How is~ ... how is that cab driver?" Myra asked with a guilty expression.

"He sustained a head injury and is getting treated," Alaric told him.

Myra nodded and didn’t say anything more.

As for Alaric, he didn’t leave instead he sent Janet back, with some instructions. The Gamma obliged and went away.
