Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers

(Myra’s POV)

’Should I just tell her that I am not feeling well. No, no, I can’t do that. I cannot ruin Nora’s birthday. Plus, even if I do make an excuse, it will cause another round of chaos and more drama, which I, absolutefuckingly, do, not, want.’ My mind and heart were in full swing, having an intense battle about this trip. I really didn’t want to go on it with Nora’s siblings. And if somehow, I do back out, that jerk is going to blame me for disrupting the plan, upsetting Nora.

Since all the Everests brothers will be there, my mind was buzzing. ’This rotten luck of mine, I tell you. Sometimes I feel, I think too much.’

A knock on the door made me distracted from my inner thoughts, ”Yes, who’s it?” I asked.

”Myra, it’s me” Nora’s chirping voice came from the other side. The next second, she walked through the door and gasped, ”Ohhh ..... My ... gosh ...., why are you not ready yet?”

”Aaaaa, I haven’t been to camping before, so didn’t knew what to wear” though I wanted to tell her my real feelings about this damned trip but I only replied to her question.

”Ahhaa, I’ll help you with it. You know what; it is my first camping trip as well. My brothers, on the other hands have all been doing this since they were three, so they all are experienced campaigners. Now, Mary, Come in.” Nora called for someone and in came, one of the house workers with some bags in her hands.

Nora looked at me and smiled, ”I knew all your clothes are unsuitable for such trip, so I ordered these.” There were plenty of warm clothing to choose from. ”It gets chilly in the night at the mountains so here’s a jacket or a sweater, no, we’ll have to take both. You can wear the sweater and carry the jacket with you. And here, woolen gloves, warm socks, and yes this too.” She handed me a beanie to cover my head.

’I guess there is no getting out of it. I’ll try to maintain my distance from all those jerks, to keep my sanity in check.’ I mentally reminded myself.

I reluctantly changed into the outfit, wearing a pure white woolen sweater, pairing it with a black cargo pants and black sports shoes. Styling my hair with a simple high ponytail, I was soon good to go. All the other essentials, I kept them in a backpack including the beige jacket.

”Let’s go” Nora dragged me out of the room. We came downstairs where Elio and Dion were waiting for us with Sara. ”Aaaa, here are my lovely girls, looking all ready.”

Nora left my side to give Sara a hug, ”I wish you could come with us as well.”

Sara looked at Nora with loving eyes, ”You know I’m busy darling, hmmm, you all enjoy your time together. Mount Shana is a beautiful place, to watch the sunrise from there, is a mesmerizing experience. Try to relax; maybe, something new awaits you all, who knows.”

”We’ll surely do, but aren’t Brother Brave and Alaric going to join us? Where are they? Why are they not here yet” Nora asked, looking around.

”Brave’s in the car, waiting for us outside, and Alaric, ummm, he said he’s too busy with urgent matters and cannot join us” Dion replied Nora’s question casually.

Although, Nora was dejected hearing that, I was relieved if not elated. I even did a little dance inside my head, ’Thank you so much god, for giving that jerk some sense. At least now there is one less burden on me.’

”If he’s busy, then we can do nothing about it” Nora said, her tone sounding a bit down.

Elio elbowed her teasingly, ”It’s good that Brother Alaric isn’t joining us, now who’s going to save you. Who will you complaint with, when we prank you?”

”Huhh, as if, I cannot protect myself. Bring it on” Nora took up the challenge, her mood changing.

Dion came close to me and I instinctively backed off, not wanting any kind of contact. He stood still and said, ”I just wanted to take that bag off you” and then very politely, he took the bag I was carrying, from me.

We all got out of the mansion and a black convertible jeep was awaiting us. Brave was standing, leaning his body on the car’s door, looking all rough and handsome. He was showing off his well-maintained physic, wearing a tight plain black shirt and military cargos underneath. His rawness made me forget all about my mood, I kept looking at him secretly.

”Brother Brave, I am so glad that you are coming with us” Nora hugged Brave.

Brave smiled at her kindly. ’Wow, how can someone smile so innocently and purely, looking like that?’ Out of all the brothers, only Brave have been the one who didn’t took part in any of the sick pranks or mocking or seducing. He seemed like an introvert, which is a good thing for me, I guess. Though, sometimes I do feel that he’s keeping an eye on me, or stealing glances at me. But it’s still better than the others.

We all settled down in the car. Brave was handling the wheels while Dion was sitting beside him. Elio, Nora and I took the back seat with Nora in between. And soon we zoomed off to our destination, which was Mount Shana.

The journey was much better than I thought, with Nora doing the most of the talking. Elio did try to make brief talks with me, which I replied to him very curtly. Dion didn’t dare to say anything to me, I could tell. And Brave, yeah, he’s the silent one, so he only gave answers to what he was asked.

After a one and a half an hour or so later, we arrived at the place or so I thought.

”From here on, we need to walk some distance” Dion instructed.

Brave parked the car and we all got out. Gathering all the stuff, we started hiking towards the camping place. Elio came by my side, with his and my bags, whispering in my ears, ”Tell me, if your foot feels uncomfortable or you feel tired, I’ll carry you.”

”No, thank you. I’ll be fine on my own” I replied him, walking off to catch up with Nora, who was with Brave. Dion was taking out the making shift tent and other necessities.

As we climbed, the path became steep and narrow, a little rough as well. All the Everests were walking like they were jogging in some park while I was the only one who was sweating, my thighs were killing me. Nora held my hand all the time, steadying me on the road. Soon we reached the part where the tents were to be set up.

Nora let go of my hand, as she shouted and started running, ”BROTHER.” I lost my balance, tumbling backwards. Nora realized something off, and soon five people were running towards me with the speed of light.

Before I could hit the ground and fall, four hands steadied me. My eyes were shut tightly; I could feel a hand on my shoulder, one on my waist, while both my arms were held by two different people.

I opened my eyes and realized all the brothers were holding onto me.
