Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 163: You Should Try It Too

(Author’s POV)

"Stay away from me, don’t come close ...... NOOOOOO," Myra yelled as she jolted awake from her restless sleep after a gruesome nightmare. She was panting heavily and sweating. Her back was drenched completely, the buttoned up pajamas were suffocating her.

"Did you fall? Are you alright, Myra?" Yelena yanked the door open frantically as she heard her scream. She was scared to hear Myra’s voice.

She switched on the main light to find Myra sitting on her bed, her face all pale and sweaty and horrified. Her eyes were slightly teary as well.

Yelena pursed her lips and creased her brows as she walked towards Myra, "Did you had another one of those nightmares?" She asked concernedly.

Myra nodded hesitantly.

Seeing her terrorized state, Yelena suggested, "I will sleep with you. Can I?"

Myra was too afraid to say no. In the dark, silent room, she kept on thinking someone was watching, keeping an eye on her. She was being paranoid, she knew that well but she didn’t want to be alone.

’What if ... what if, someone is stalking me and comes inside through the window?’ Those kinds of thoughts occurred to her. The people she had encountered during he stay in Kimberg were not normal humans but werewolves. They were capable of anything. So, breaking in while she was asleep was a possibility as well. After all, Alaric was on the same flight with her and she didn’t trust him even in the slightest. What if he had followed her and knew where she was staying currently.

After giving much thought, she said, "Okay," in a mere whisper. Her voice was hoarse and scratchy.

Yelena smiled lightly and went out to get her pillow and duvet from her room. She thought Myra would reject her just like always but she was glad she had readily agreed this time. She was worried for Myra’s mental as well as physical safety. They were good friend since their first year in college.

She came and settled beside Myra, asking, "Do you want the lights to be on?"

"You can switch it off and don’t be too courteous with me," Myra denied. She didn’t wanted to disturb Yelena’s rest.

After making sure Myra wasn’t uncomfortable anywhere, Yelena switched the lights off and occupied the left side of the bed.

With Yelena by her side, Myra slept rather comfortably then before. Though, she dreamt some weird dreams about Everests brothers.

The chirping of lively birds chimed in the room, indicating it was already morning. But Myra was too dead tired to wake up anytime soon. She was thoroughly exhausted and jet lagged as well. Her injuries were bothering her rest all night as well.

Yelena woke up but didn’t disturb her sleep. They had nothing on their schedules as they were on break.

She left the room quietly, freshened up and made breakfast for the two of them. Gearing up for the day.

Meanwhile, in Kimberg, Alaric had returned the previous night. After making sure Myra had safely returned back to her family, he didn’t waste any time and came back to Kimberg.

But he didn’t go back to the pack house. Instead, he went to the headquarters to complete the pending work and create an alibi for him. After all, he had told Elio that he was on going a business trip.

He spent the whole night finishing his assigned work as well as the documents and projects under Brave’s supervision. But, quite often, his mind would drift back to Myra.

Her cold attitude towards him, her repulsiveness when he kissed her in the elevator. For a werewolf like him, kissing someone was not a big deal at all. And according to him, his intentions were no ulterior. She was having a panic attack at that time and Alaric didn’t knew how to calm her down. So, he could only give her mouth to mouth oxygen.

Eventually, Myra’s state improved but after that he just couldn’t control his urges. He was like a lion, who had tasted blood. He couldn’t stop in that moment. He kept on blaming Alex but his wolf shot his words down, ’Do you really think it was just me? Did you feel nothing at all? You enjoyed it. You savored it. Don’t lie to me. No, don’t lie to yourself, Al.’

Alaric sighed gravelly, pinching his nose bridge. He just couldn’t get Myra’s disdainful expression out of his head. Though, she meant nothing to him. But his heart as well as his wolf said otherwise.

He shook his head and dived back into work. By morning, he looked more like a zombie that a werewolf. His eyes had dark circles underneath them. His hair were a little unkempt. His tie knot was loosened and wrinkled, so was his white dress shirt.

A knock on his office door interrupted him as he said in his deep voice, "Come in."

Amanda Shades, his secretary, walked in and greeted, "Good Morning, COO Everests."

Alaric nodded but didn’t look up. Amanda noticed his disheveled state and was flabbergasted.

He was always so put together and didn’t like even a single wrinkle on his cloth. If there was any, he would go on a tirade and change his clothes immediately.

But right now, he was messy and so unhinged about it. It looked like he hasn’t slept for two days, which was true.

Alaric noticed Amanda’s silence as she was just standing there like a statue. He called out, "Secretary Shades, is there something on my face?"

Amanda snapped out of her reverie and cleared her throat and said, "*Ehem .... ehem .... * COO Everests, your schedule for today is ......." She went on and on about his schedule for the day which was packed.

Once she had finished, she looked up at him and waited for his instruction. Alaric was unusually absent minded, he nodded and said, calmly, "Okay, if there is nothing else. You can go now."

Amanda blinked but walked out immediately. As the door clicked shut, she breathed a sigh of relief. She thought, ’Has something happened to boss? Why is he so quiet today?’

Then, she went about her business.

Alaric looked at the time and it was already ten in the morning. A mind link interrupted him, "Alaric, where are you?" Sara’s voice echoed inside his head.

"Right now, I am in the office, mother," he replied tiredly.

"Why didn’t you come home?" Sara asked with concerned filled voice. After Alaric departed yesterday, she has been thinking that maybe she was being too harsh on her son and was guilty.

When he didn’t return home all night, she got worried. Brave was already in coma, she didn’t wanted anything to happen to her other kids.

Alaric explained, "I went on an urgent business trip and after that I came to the office. There is a lot of pending work."

"Don’t overwork yourself. Come by noon, for lunch," she said softly.

Alaric smiled faintly and replied, "Okay, mother. I will be home by noon." And the mind link disconnected.

He picked up his phone, "Amanda, cancel the rest of my schedule for the day. And reschedule it for tomorrow."

Amanda hesitated. There was an important client meeting scheduled for lunch.

"Amanda, where’s your answer?" Alaric spat.

"Ye~ s Yes sir, on it," she replied. She didn’t say anything to him out of fright and rescheduled all his appointments. She could feel a headache coming. The client was a high-profile person and he would surely kick a fuss which she will have to handle but what could she even do. She had to follow orders without question.

Alaric had already completed eighty percent of the work despite his mind not fully focused. So, he wrapped up his remaining work in an hour, tidied up himself properly and went back to the pack house.

It took him half an hour to reach the mansion and as soon as he entered, his mood which had been good, sored instantly.

Maximus Corbin and Clement Sanders were having a talk with Noah in the living room. They sensed Alaric’s presence and stopped their conversation midway and looked his way.

"Ohhh, Young Alpha Alaric, we are finally able to meet you," Maximus chimed, feigning joy.

"It’s good to meet you too, Elder Corbin, Elder Sanders," he replied casually.

Neither Maximus nor Clement liked Alaric and the feeling was mutual. Alaric too, was not fond of either of them. They were too haughty and pretentious, always projecting themselves as superior.

Both the elders perceived Alaric as irresponsible brat who had snatched Brave’s place. They never believed that he was the right person to lead Moon Shine Pack.

"So, what has been keeping you busy all this time, young Alpha?" Clement Sanders asked.

"Work has been keeping me busy. You should try it sometimes too," Alaric jabbed at him in a very casual manner.

Clement’s mouth twitched at his blunt words as Alaric took a seat on the couch.
