Mated To My Best Friend's Lycan Alpha Brothers

(Author’s POV)

The night owls’ whistles and hoots were echoing inside the dark forest as the sky turned pitch black, the clock indicating it was two thirty in the morning.

Greg was dozing off. Sara went to wash her face and the only one staying guard was Noah. Though, he too was feeling sleepy, but for him, it was still manageable.

A distinct noise interrupted his focus as he turned his head to find the source of this odd sound. It was dead silence for a few seconds and he returned his eyes back to the ICU ward where Bella was sleeping soundly. The clattering noise disturbed him again. He creased his eyebrows and wrinkled his nose in frustration, ”Arth, what’s that noise? Can you sense anything suspicious?”

”I don’t know. I can’t sense anything weird,” Arth conveyed to Noah.

The thumping sound was heard again and Noah got up at once. He nudged Greg’s shoulders to wake him up. Greg was completely of the zone and snoring loudly, his large figure was resting on the small bench.

Noah pinched him hard and Greg got startled, ”Ouchhhhhh .....wh~ wh~ what... what is it? What happened?” He squinted his eyes and asked Noah.

”Did you also hear some weird noise?” Noah questioned him with a serious face.

”Noise, what noise? What are you talking about man?” Greg was a little cranky; his injuries were already making him icky as well as irked. The banging and thumping noise resonated again. Greg shrugged it off casually, ”It must be someone from the children’s ward, playing or something. Don’t bother.”

Noah wasn’t satisfied by his statement. ”Listen, I am going to check what it is. You stay alert and keep watch here, okay? ..... GREG ANDREW” Noah grumbled as he pinch him hard again.

”Ok~ayy, okay. I got it. You go, I am going to keep watch, you go.” Greg assured him, although his eyes were getting heavy again. Noah didn’t move and kept on looking at him with a serious look.

Greg got up and sat with his spine erect. After making sure he wasn’t going to doze off anytime soon, Noah went off, though he kept looking behind to check whether Greg was keeping his promise or not.

The thumping and clattering sound amplified but even with his hearing ability, Noah wasn’t able to identify what it was exactly. He turned toward the emergency staircase and the noise got louder and louder. Arth tracked the noise; it was coming from the rooftop. He sprinted, his steps agile and soundless as he reached the top most floor in no time.

Outside the hospital room, Greg was sitting with his eyes wide open. He didn’t want to take any chances. Although, he was struggling to keep his eyes fully open and fight off sleep.

A shattering voice was heard, as a nearby potted plant fell off and broke. Greg turned to his back to look what happened, a patient who seemed to have a fractured leg, had fallen off and was struggling to get up.

Greg immediately rushed to his side and picked him up carefully, ”Are you okay, sir?”

The patient hummed and thanked him. Greg inquired from him, ”Which one is your room?” The patient pointed toward the other side of where Bella was.

”Can you go on your own?” Greg asked. He didn’t wanted to leave Bella’s side. But he also couldn’t bear to see an elderly patient suffer.

”I will, thank you, young man,” the elderly man tried to walk few steps but failed to do so. Greg sighed and helped him anyway.

As soon as he sent the patient to his designated room, a loud buzzing sound resonated on the entire floor as Steven came sprinting alongside Bella’s attending nurse, his face was etched with panic. Two other doctors came after them.

When Greg saw them running, only one thing came to his mind, ’Something must have happened to Bella?’ And then without wasting anytime, he dashed towards the VIP Intensive Care Ward.

Soon, Sara came rushing as well after hearing the alarm flaring. They both stood at the entrance of the ICU and what they saw was dropped their hearts. Bella’s blood pressure was dropping by constantly and her whole body was vibrating like she was hit with an electric current, she was convulsing. Her body temperature was showing abnormal drop as Steven instructed the fellow doctors to begin the treatment.

The nurse drew the curtain and glared at Greg, she was disappointed with him.

Sara’s face was damp and her hair were disarranged. She looked at Greg and asked, her voice shaky, ”What ..... what happened? Why did this suddenly happen? And where’s Noah?”

Greg’s hands were on his head as he kept murmuring and praying, ”She is fine ... she is alright .... Nothing will happen to her ... nothing will happen to Bell.”

Sara not being able to control her temper shouted at him and repeated her question again, ”Greg Andrew, answer me. Why did this happen? And where the hell has Noah disappeared?”

At the rooftop, after searching for a few minutes, Noah found a children’s sound box which was playing this disturbing and clattering sound. He switched it off and the next second, the blaring alarm sound reached him. His eyes widened and he ran back to the floor where Bella was.

He returned to find a chaotic scene. Sara was shouting at Greg while the latter was hysterically praying to the moon goddess.

At this time, Alpha Nathan and Alpha Keith also came rushing followed by Lucius Everests. Nathan face was panic stricken as well as infuriated. When they all saw Sara crying and screaming, they were horrified. For such a calm girl, to shout, something dreadful must have happened.

Before Noah could ask Greg, Nathan’s rumbling voice resonated in the air, ”If something happens to my daughter, every single person standing here will have to pay with there lives. I won’t spare anyone.”

Sara had already mind linked him, that’s why he came almost instantly. She looked at Noah with a tear stricken face and inquire, her voice was shivering, ”Where were you? Didn’t you promise me you would keep watch on Bella? Five minutes ....... I was just away for five minutes and you left her unattended.”

Noah didn’t utter a single word. He knew he was in the wrong and trying to explain Sara would only backfire. Greg interrupted Sara and told all of them what had happened. He narrated every detail.

After listening to Greg’s words, Alpha Keith who was silent all this while spoke, his voice laced with threat and warning, ”Do you think what you say is believable, huhh? You think we are fools. Mind you, if anything happens to Bella in this pack, not only Blue Mountain Pack but also my Half Shade Lunar Pack will seek vengeance for her. You all better pray that Bella is alright.”

Lucius Everests, who was watching the drama from the sidelines, didn’t like Alpha Keith’s threatening tone. He was angry and felt insulted. He turned towards Greg but his eyes were on Noah as he made an ugly face and said, ”You are such a disappointment.”

After an hour filled with chaos and nervousness, the door to the Intensive Care Unit opened and out came Steven, his expression was complicated.

Nathan rushed towards him and asked, ”Doctor, how is my daughter? Is she ok?”

Steven gulped down hard and sighed simultaneously, readying himself for what’s to come because he was nervous as hell.

He started with, ”Alpha Nathan, we have done everything we could and~” Nathan and the others looked at him with worry as well as anticipation. He continued, ”We have somehow managed to save Ms. Allen’s life.”

All the others sighed in relief as they heard this statement but Steven continued even further, ”But~, due to this incident, Ms. Bella Allen has entered in a state of prolonged coma.” His head was lowered in dejection as he conveyed the news.

As soon as the words left his mouth, all the people standing there had a terrified expression. Nathan clutched his fists and grabbed Steven by his lab coat, ”How did this happen suddenly, tell me ..... tell me ..... got dammit, tell me. Bella was alright, so how did this happen?”

With trembling voice, Steven replied, ”The monitor managing her blood pressure was unplugged and her oxygen mask was also removed.”

Keith pulled Nathan back but warned. His eyes followed Greg and Noah, his voice menacing as well as ominous, ”It must be one of you two mutts, who have done that. You all are responsible for Bella’s state and you will have to pay for it.” He then turned and questioned Lucius, ”Alpha Lucius, is this how your pack’s doctors treat the patient. You gave your word, now you will have to face the consequences.”

Greg frowned, ’The machine was off and her mask was also removed? That’s impossible, how can that happen? No one went inside’ He suddenly remembered something and walked inside the ward. Keith tried to stop him from going inside but Greg didn’t give him and chance. He went inside and looked at Bella’s face, he was overwhelmed with emotion but right now, he came to retrieve something else.

He walked to the side wall and took out a small camera, he had hidden. He retrieved it and went outside, raised his hand and declared ”I might know who has done that.”
