Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers-Chapter 204: The Twin’s Relationship
Chapter 204: The Twin’s Relationship
(Author’s POV)
Alaric settled beside Brave’s bed and kept on looking at his sleeping figure. As always, everything was normal, his heart rate, his vitals, his hand that radiated warmth, his healthy face and wound free body. But what Alaric wanted most was to hear his voice.
Alaric and Brave has been closed since their birth. Not just because they were twins but because they complimented each other well. Brave as the eldest one out of the two was mature and rational while his twin Alaric was rowdy and untamed. When they both were young, Alaric would always land in some sort of trouble because of his wild behavior but Brave, the calm and collected one, was always with Alaric, comforting and advising him.
They were basically inseparable when they were toddlers till their pre-teens. When they turned thirteen and first got their wolves on their birthdays, a lot changed.
Brave, who has been getting extra lessons along with his usual combat training since his childhood was swamped with more special training. After all, he was named Lycan King’s heir apparent since young. There were little to no objections with decision from anyone as he possessed all the qualities required to rule a pack. Alaric was happy for his brother as well. And he didn’t wanted the throne because it was bothersome and had too many rules attached to it.
Due to his packed schedule, Brave spent less and less time with Alaric and his family. And when he was not training, he joined their father, Noah to accompany on pack meetings or gatherings.
But this didn’t weaken their bond at all. With time, Alaric’s nature changed. His unruly and untamed nature didn’t subside fully but he reigned it. He was not academically gifted but was a handworker. He wanted to assist his brother when needed. And regarding his wolf, Alex was already strong and almost invincible.
Some people, who supported Brave and disliked Alaric started seeing him as a threat. They misunderstood his painstaking efforts as greed for his brother’s position. They thought, Alaric wanted to usurp the Lycan King’s covet position, though he was least interested in it.
They tried to warn Brave but he dismissed their idea. He knew his brother well than anyone else. He defended him always and shrugged their suggestions off.
When those people couldn’t shake Brave’s mind, they turned towards Alaric, creating problems for him. They wanted to create a rift between the brothers and wanted Alaric to be banished out of the pack. They main concerned was, Alaric’s werewolf form and the special ability that came with his Lycan blood.
Both Alaric and Alex possessed the strength equal to that of hundred elephants and that was concerning for them. Brave’s wolf Raw, was strong but not as strong as Alex in comparison.
But none of their schemes worked, instead they were thrown out of the pack with ’traitor’ written with a silver dagger on their back of the right hand. As for the people outside of the pack, they were hunted and tortured gruesomely on Noah and Sara’s orders.
There was no jealousy, no grudge or bad feelings between Alaric and Brave, ever.
And when Brave lost his mate and got into severe depression, Alaric was the one who took care of him and handled everything swiftly. There brotherly bond was like no other.
So, seeing Brave in such condition was painful for Alaric. Even when Raw was running after Myra like a beast, Alex did not wanted to attack but he had to intervene because his mate was scared. Still, he tried not to hurt Raw with his enormous strength, he just halted his moves.
With a slightly shaky voice, Alaric murmured, "It feels like I haven’t heard your voice since ages, Brave. You have been sleeping so peacefully and unbothered. But a lot has happened in the real world. After you fainted that night, the truth was revealed. That human, .... ahem ahem .... Myra, we told her everything. There was a lot of back and forth but in the end, she departed. But~ ..." He stopped and leaned forward.
He lowered his voice and then continued, "But something happened on her way to the airport. She was ambushed and assaulted by two rogue wolves." When he mentioned this, he felt a pang of discomfort in his left side of the ribcage. But he wanted to tell Brave, maybe it could get him to react.
"But~ ... you know what, who saved her from those cheap rogues. No, it wasn’t me or mother or father. It was that human girl herself. I don’t know how did she managed to do that, but time froze in that moment and she killed her assailant. She stabbed him without hesitation and saved herself. Then, I took her to a human hospital for treatment, keeping everything under wraps. You know, how mother and father will react if they knew what happened with her. She also insisted not to mention anything to anybody. Haha .... But here I am blurting it all out in front of you and breaking my promise." With every word he spoke, his grip tightened on Brave’s hand.
"So ... so ... now that I have breached ...... my promise ...... please .... please wake up and scold me. Scold me for not keeping my word. Brave. Wake up buddy. I miss our conversation. We haven’t even finished that wine yet. Wake up," Alaric choked while enunciating these words. He was overwhelmed with emotions.
He then turned his attention to Brave’s face. There was no twitching of eyelids or any other movement. His gaze shifted to his brother’s figure and there was no movement there too. The machine beeped like normal, there was no fluctuations whatsoever.
Alaric sighed gravelly. He wanted to try to talk to Brave and see whether their twin bond could wake him up. But it had failed. So, he was left with no choice. In the end, he had to use Myra’s blood sample to see, whether he can wake up from the scent of it.
He caressed his brother’s face and stroked his hair. Sighing heavily, he let got of Brave’s hand and got up from his side. He walked where he had kept that suitcase.
Placing it on the table, he inserted the password and unlatched the briefcase. He opened it and looked at the two DNA samples of Myra he had stored and preserved to get to know Myra’s true identity, her biological family. But waking Brave up was more important to him.
The blood was stored securely in a small glass bottle. He took it out and held it tightly in his hand, not uncorking it just yet. He was about to get up when he heard some movement.
His first instinct was to look towards Brave but there was not sign of any movement just like before, so his eyes shifted to the door. The knob on it was in the middle twisting, someone was entering Brave’s room. His eyes widened, he could smell and scent and that meant that it was either Noah or Sara. As the were Lycan King and Luna, they could conceal their scent from others. It was a fatal weapon they used to blindside enemies.
The door opened and Alaric panicked unlike usual. He shut the suitcase forcefully, the impact of which created a piercing noise in a silent room. He stood up abruptly, with both his hands behind his back.
Sara entered with a smile. When she saw Alaric in Brave’s room, she was puzzled. She questioned, "Al, why are you here at this time?"
Alaric fumbled with his words, "I ... I wanted ... to~ .... stay with Brave tonight," he managed to squeeze out. "Mother, why haven’t you slept yet? Is there anything that you need?"
"I got a message from Myra. She said she will call in about five minutes. Al, why are standing like that? Did something happen?" Sara looked at him. He was standing there like a soldier going on a battlefield. His chest was puffed out and his whole body was rigid as he stood tall.
"Myra will call?" His eyes narrowed at his mother’s words. ’What does it mean?’ Alex was confused too.
"Ohh, you don’t know it yet." Sara approached Alaric. Alaric clenched the blood sample tightly and pressed his lips, holding his breath. "I had a talk with Myra. She agreed to talk with Brave." Sara told him, her voice was cheerful when she conveyed it.
But Alaric couldn’t wrap his head on it. He was partially listening to mother’s words while hiding the thing behind his back. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
He muttered, "Mother, I don’t get it. Why would she call?"
"I told her the situation, about the test Greg conducted and asked if she could come to Kimberg but she refused. But when I asked, whether she could talk to Brave for a while and told her the reason, she agreed," Sara told Alaric. She stood in front of Alaric and then said, "Al, show me what you are hiding."
