(Author’s POV)
"It’s time I come clean with Myra about what we truly are. She needs to know about my, no, not just my but about our existence, our kinds’ existence. I’ll bear all the brunt of her anger and all the consequences which will come with it but I can’t conceal ’this truth’ any further. She has every damn right in the world to know that we aren’t humans but werewolves. That, her long time friend and her family are Lycan descendants." Nora voiced with utmost determination.
All the brothers were stumped by the abrupt declaration of Nora. Yes, they knew, they knew they have to come clean about it someday but as Myra was totally clueless about their identity, it was surely a difficult task ahead of them.
They all looked at Myra’s peaceful sleeping face with mixed emotions. A sigh escaped Elio’s mouth.
Dion muttered, "Do you have something in mind, how you’ll tell her? What’s the plan?"
"As of now, NO" Nora sounded a bit discouraged, not able to answer Dion’s question. Alaric took her already healed hands in his, comforting her, "We’ll think of something. Don’t take pressure on yourself, umm."
Nora only nodded at his words with sigh full of tiredness. And everybody’s own mental battle started from there on.
The drive back to mansion was not tranquil but still it was eerily quiet in the car.
Reaching the pack house’s main gate Nora nudged Myra who was the only one sleeping placidly, "Myra, wake up. We’re back home."
With an "Ohh" sound Myra opened her eyes and looked at her surroundings, they really were back at the ’royal palace.’
When they all went inside, Sara was discussing something with Dr. Andrew in the living room, "Ohhh Good Morning kids, how your overnight trip was? Did you girls like it?"
"It was nice" Nora replied with a bit of laziness which worried Sara deeply.
Sara asked, "Why do you sound so down, everything okay sweetie? Did something bad happen?"
Before Nora could answer back, Elio cut in, "Myra fell in the hot springs and caught a fever last night."
Sara’s eyes widened, "Ohhh My Goddess, What were you guys even there for? Playing games? Can’t you even take care of someone properly, huhh? What’s the use of having so many of you boys, you cannot even take care of the girls" she bashed everyone with an authoritative tone, like a true Luna. For the very first time Myra saw Sara being harsh or angry on someone.
No one dared to confront or argue with Sara; after all they were careless last night. It was their responsibility to see to it that nothing bad happens, but in a way they failed which was shameful for any wolf, barring they were the Lycans as well.
Myra tried to cool down Sara’s temper, "Mrs. Everests, I slipped and fell on my own. It isn’t anybody’s fault but mine." Although Myra didn’t like any of them, but she couldn’t stand seeing them being accused of what they haven’t even done, it was unfair in her eyes.
Sara came close to Myra and checked her face first to ensure she was all okay. After conforming, she held her hands, "Myra, I know you are a good girl but you were their responsibility and their duty was to look out for you, but these rascals messed it up. I am so disappointed in you boys. Come sit her Myra. Dr. Andrew check on her." Sara’s tone was gentle but stern.
Myra didn’t say anything on that and let Andrew do the normal examination, "Although, her fever had abated she still needs a full days rest. Ms. Miracle, you need to be careful with your health. You are getting injured every now and then and now this? Speaking of injury, is your previously injured foot still bothering you?"
"It sometimes feel a bit uncomfortable and last night inside the water it kinda jammed" Myra stated truthfully.
Sara glared at everyone who was standing with her sharp and piercing dark blue eyes listening to Myra’s words. She was truly livid at her sons.
Dr. Andrew touched Myra’s ankle ever so slight and she felt a bit of a discomfort, "Ms. Miracle, please don’t just put pressure on this foot. Ankle injuries may seem that they are all good and healed up but it is not always the case. The tissues in this area are sensitive and it will only hinder the progress of it getting better" he lectured her, his professional ethics kicking in.
