Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157: I Will Take It From Here

(Author’s POV)

"You can leave now. I am capable enough to manage on my own," Myra stopped Alaric’s advances to help her. She didn’t wanted him anywhere near her.

"Do you have be so stubborn, all the time, huhh? Your injuries are serious. They will flare up," he countered back with an argument of his own when he saw her limping as she moved.

"And do you have to be disrespectful, like always? I said, I can manage on my own," Myra shot back without looking towards him. As she took small and careful steps. She grunted in pain but she didn’t want the help of an enemy.

In her mind, Myra still thought that all of this was Alaric’s doing and now he is just trying to overcompensate.

Alaric’s eyes darted to her face, which had a scrunched expression and then shifted to her feet, which was clearly, visibly screaming in pain, although it was thoroughly bandaged.

Rubbing his temples, he sighed heavily as he got closer to her. Then, without any prior warning, he swept Myra in his arms and carried her in princess hold.

He didn’t look at her first because he already knew her facial expression. It was ugly and one filled with anger.

Then he said these words, "Take it as I am repenting for my rude ass behavior, I have shown you all this while." He then gazed at her, his sapphires boring into her hazels, trying to showcase his sincerity towards her.

Myra was in no mood to play this game. She protested, "Put me down, now. Or I will scream and call the hospital staff."

But Alaric didn’t budge, instead he started laughing, his shoulders vibrating, "You can do that. Sure, go ahead. But you know what, this room is a VVIP room and has the best soundproofing walls and door attached. No one’s going to hear you."

"You~ ... you are utterly irritating," Myra mumbled while grinding her teeth, seething at his audacity.

He loosened his grip on her slightly. Myra thought she was about to fall as she clutched his neck tightly to secure herself.

Alaric was amused as he teased her and said, "Look, I am not here to disturb you. Until you go back to Damona, you are my responsibility. Whether you like it or not. Just let me help, it is just for one day. You don’t want your stay to extend right? So, stop torturing yourself because of your dislike for me and let me do my part."

Myra was already tired from his rambling alone. Her mind started spinning again as she gritted her teeth but didn’t say anything more.

Alaric took it as she has complied with his request and gave a genuinely, sweet smile.

Myra looked at him with a dazed expression, then commented frustratingly, "What are you smile at? Just take me to the bathroom door."

Alaric didn’t notice that he was smiling at her. He was taken aback by her words and immediately changed his expression to a rather serious one. He then obliged with her words and took her to the bathroom door and released her.

She then ordered him, "You go out now."

Alaric looked at her, "Not again."

"GET OUT, ALARIC EVERESTS. I need to pee. Get the fucking hell out at once," she was pissed how easily he was crossing the boundary. She was kind of embarrassed.

Alaric who was about to argue, shut his mouth and pressed his lips in a thin line. He then turned and left, leaving these words, "Just say my name and I will come. Don’t try to do what you did earlier. I am just around the corner, making a call."

He showed her his phone and departed, shutting the door softly.

Myra kept looking at the closed door. She was getting goosebumps by his flipped behavior. The feeling was the one she couldn’t even describe in mere few words.

For once, Alaric was acting decently around her and her suspicion only grew more by its absurdity. That guy, since day one, after their first encounter in his bed, has always shown how much he despised her because she was a human and from humble background. Only once had they talk had a normal conversation. And that was inside the car, after she bought those gifts for the Everests.

She thought, neither her origin nor her family status had changed but his behavior had taken a one eighty-degree turn. He was trying to be helpful and considerate. Though, his narcissistic tendencies didn’t change but the shift was obvious.

Myra then shook her head and chalked it all down as his attempt to gain her trust. She felt he was trying to make her stay for Brave by acting all sweet because his earlier tactic to threaten had failed badly.

Her thoughts were all jumbled up and in a complete mess, as she made her way inside the bathroom to freshen up, her movements slow and careful.

Alaric walked to some distance as he made his way towards the open balcony area. He mind linked Elio, asking about Brave’s progress, "Elio, has Brave woken up yet?"
