Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72: Ahh, They Are Bickering Again

(Author’s POV)

"Where is your mum, kid?" Myra’s voice was filled with kindness as she asked the boy.

The young one didn’t get what she said, making weird face he just, "Mmm~um?"

"Your mommy, where is she?" Myra again asked showing utmost patience.

"Ooooo, My mama, My mama is at, she is at home. I have, come here, come here with, my nanny, today" the boy stammered in between. He was speaking in a foreign dialect, with broken pronunciation.

"And where is your nanny?" Myra asked slowly, giving him time to understand her words.

"She was just here somewhere, but now she’s not. I am lost, alone" saying this, the boy started crying heavily, bawling his golden eyes out.

Myra pressed her lips in a thin line, compressing them, scanned her surroundings to see if the child’s nanny was anywhere near or not and then bending a bit, she wiped the boy’s tears stricken chubby cheeks with her fingers and thumb, clearing her throat, she inquired, "What is you name kiddo? I will accompany you. Let’s find your nanny, okay?"

The boy immediately stopped his sobbing, with a slightly runny nose, and in his clumsy way, he said, "My name is, name is Ad~ Adrian, Adrian Taylor."

"Alright Adrian, we will find your nanny in no time, but first let me tie up your shoelace for you, hmmm" Myra spoke tenderly, giving him assurance.

Adrian didn’t understand her words, but before he could process anything, Myra was already on one knee. This made him jerk involuntary, as he took a step back.

Myra held his hands gently in an attempt to calm him down and uttered, "Adrian, see I am just tying your shoes for you, tying your shoes." She showed him with hand gestures, conveying through actions.

Adrian’s shoulders relaxed as he understood what Myra was doing. Then Myra muttered to him, "How old are you, Adrian?"

"I am three and half year old, Miss pretty" Adrian mumbled proudly with a cute smile stapled on his face. Myra smiled too at the little things’ cute compliment.

"Ohhh, Adrian is such a big-big boy. And what a lovely smile you were hiding, there." Myra was about to take out a napkin from her bag when Alaric suddenly barged in on their lively conversation, "Where were you all this time? I have been searching for you all over the place. Can’t you just stay still for a second, always roaming around without a care in this world? Do you like making trouble so much?"

Adrian thought Alaric was talking to him, so he hugged Myra’s legs tightly with fear as he blabbered, "I don’t~, don’t~, don’t know him. Miss Pretty, I don’t know him." He fumbled with his words, shuddering profusely.

Myra glared at Alaric’s rude words as she reprimanded him, "You are scaring the kid. Back off will you. And what the heck are you even shooting your dagger like mouth for, huhh? It’s just been five to six minutes at maximum. And what logic is this, how can someone shop while staying still? I don’t have such skills. Is this a virtual shopping center?"

This made Alaric even more enraged, Alex too didn’t like how Adrian was glued to Myra’s exposed legs and the way she was firing back because of an unknown and unrelated child. He thought, ’Why of all days, she had to wear a dress today and she is also yelling at Alaric, although she has been trying to avoid speaking to him. Arghh, this is all because of this young brat.’

Alaric clenched his teeth and asked, "Who is this brat?"

"Language, Mr. Everests. He has a name and it is not brat" Myra spoke with restrained anger.

Rolling his eyeballs in disbelief, Alaric uttered, "Who are you?" he was peeved at this point.

"His name is Adrian Taylor. He is lost and his nanny is nowhere to be seen" Myra explained to him.

Alaric angled his head, looking at Adrian observing the young wolf from head to toe, "Hey kiddo, wipe off that snort from your nose. You look~" before he could say anything rude again, Myra held his mouth tightly with her hands in an attempt to not let him finish his sentence, "If you can’t say anything nice, just keep your mouth shut." She was agitated by him. He was always so impolite and discourteous towards others. ’Mean freak’

As Myra’s palms touched his lips, Alaric eyes fluttered at this abrupt action of hers and all the itchiness and prickly feeling that was rustling in his heart disappeared all at once and suddenly, he was feeling parched and craving, as his Adam’s apple moved involuntarily.

Seeing that, he was silent; Myra withdrew her hand and turned toward the kid with a tissue, carefully wiping his nose with it, "Adrian, don’t listen to this big brother. His mother has scolded him today, so he’s in a bad mood since morning."

Adrian tried to subdue his chuckling too, "Does this big brother~, also gets, sc-scolded by his mother? But he is, he is soo tall and big and scary?"

Myra replied in a hushed tone, suppressing a wry smile, "This big brother here is a troublemaker and is always scolded by his parents. Don’t be like him when you grow up, hmmm, Adrian? You have to be kind and polite to others, always."

Oblivious to Alaric’s frustrated mood, Myra commended Adrian Taylor, "Ohh you are such a good boy, so obedient. You will be one fine man when you grow up." She ruffled his shiny blonde hair. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

And then, without looking at Alaric, Myra spoke back to him, "I am taking Adrian to the missing person’s department. You can return to Nora’s side and when I am done with it, I will join you guys." Holding Adrian’s hand, Myra started walking to the other side.

Alaric raised his right brow, creasing his nose again, "Don’t tell me what to do. I will do what I want." He reached to the other side of Myra, holding her wrist in his in a firm grip, ’Meddlesome human.’

Myra tried to retrieve it but he silenced her, "Do you know where it is? It’s already crowded enough and my time is precious as gold, so stay put and let’s get this over with." Alaric started taking big steps.

Seeing their bickering, Nora smacked her forehead, "Jeeezzz, I gave Brother Alaric a chance to mend things with Myra and apologize to her. Forget about apologizing, he’s not even behaving nicely towards her. Arghhhhh, sorry but I had to say it, but why the heck he keeps acting like a jerk in front of Myra?"
