(Brave’s POV)
*Huffing* ..... *breathing heavily* "don’t leave , no, no, noooooooooooDON’T LEAVE .Hannah no."
I woke up with a start, panting heavily. Taking deep breaths, I evened them to calm myself down. Then I checked my phone which was lying on the bedside table; it showed it was just five in the morning. Running a hand through my sweaty raven locks, I murmured, "I have been having these nightmares again since past few days."
My body was shaking by that distraught dream, my thoughts drifting to that ti when I lost my fated, my destiny, my beloved Hannah.
Leaning my head on the bedpost, I closed my eyes to erase such botherso thoughts. I called out to my buddy, in a whisper, ’Hey Raw, buddy. I know you are there sowhere. I can feel you; I can feel your presence, at least I haven’t completely lost you. But all this ti not able to see you, I miss you buddy. I want to talk to you.’ But I got no reply in return, just like it has been since that incident.
But isn’t it weird, since when did this all start again, these nightmares and Raw’s presence? Precisely a week ago, or to be exact ever since Nora’s human friend ca to stay with our family in the pack house.
Thinking of Nora’s friend, what was her na again, ummm, My~My My-ra, yes Myra.
Ever since she ca to live with us in the pack house, I have been feeling an odd sensation within . It may be a re hallucination or so kind of a trick, as Alaric ntioned earlier. But after observing that human girl for quite a few days, I didn’t detect any kind of ill intentions from her. But everything that I have been feeling recently, I could not help but doubt her. She is sothing, sothing not so ordinary. I cannot trust an outsider.
Dispelling these thoughts, I dragged myself up from the bed, coz I know, I wouldn’t be able to get any sleep now.
With wolf or without a wolf, as an Alpha it is my duty to train and be prepared at all tis.
I changed into a black tracksuit to go for a jog. The weather at this ti of the year, it is starting to get chilly. Though, a werewolf doesn’t feel cold so easily but as my furry friend is sleeping in his own world, I do feel cold, not like an ordinary human, but yes a bit cold, I can feel it.
After a series of intense training session, I went to the lake where I and Hannah used to go often, admiring the scenery and waterfall together. This place was our safe haven. And it is the sa place where I felt her drifting apart from . The painful mory of that ti still lingers in my mind. I reminded myself, not to drown in those painful thoughts, not to feel heartbroken.
For the sake of my brother, Alaric, who saved from despair; for my family, who are trying to support in any way possible; for my sister Nora, who is my world and for myself as well; I have to get my act together.
The inner turmoil within was interrupted by my father’s mind link, "Brave, I want you to join all the others at the breakfast table. There is sothing I have to share with you all." I imdiately turned around, taking my father’s orders. I walked back to the pack house and went straight for my room. After all, I needed to shower after all that hours of training.
My father, the Lycan King, Noah Everests and my mother, Sara Allen now an Everests, the Luna of our Moon Shine Pack, I respect and love them both, wholeheartedly. They have been my inspiration and not just mine, but all the pack mbers looks up to them.
Though he’s a Lycan King, the most powerful werewolf on earth, my father has never despised any other species. He is strict and disciplined in his approach but he believes that it is his duty to protect all his pack mbers whether it is a fellow wolf or any other kind.
My mother, the Luna of the world’s biggest pack, the Moon Shine pack, is the most bold and daring Alpha wolf. She is the pride and prestige not just as a Luna but as a business person too. Her toil and hard work has grown the Everests na into a billionaire empire. The Moon Shine pack was always a strong foothold among the werewolf kind, but it was my mother’s brains that have led to the na of Everests reigning in the business world as well. Although they are not fated mates, both my parents make a ’power couple’, which I am quite envious of.
After freshening up, I made a beeline for the elevator but an unusual yet alluring scent drew close. My breath beca erratic and my heart raced once again. I followed the sweet scent and was caught off guard when I saw, where it took to.
I was standing in front of that human girl’s room; the fragrance was much stronger here. My mind was muddled by that dizzying scent. I was about to open the door unknowingly, that’s when I snapped out of it. ’Brave, what are you doing? Stop with these illusions.’
I hesitated for a few seconds, still standing in front of her room, my back towards her door. A suspicious voice startled , "Brave, what are, you doing here?"
I turned around to see Alaric taking long strides towards , narrowing his eyes with suspicion. "Nothing, just waiting for Nora to co out" I lied to Alaric, feeling guilty.
"Standing in front of that peasant’s room, you are waiting for, Nora?" Alaric looked at from head to toe.
"Ahh, that’s why I didn’t get a response, I thought Nora was inside. I made a mistake." I covered up my lie. Alaric didn’t pushed the matter any further. He patted my shoulder and dragged saying, "Nora’s already downstairs, let’s go."
I simply followed him, glancing back at the door which was still closed.
As we all settled down at the table, Alaric asked father about the matter he has summoned us all for.
"Not everyone is still here" father replied, sipping his coffee gracefully.
Alaric got what father ant and was about to protest, but I mind linked him, not to upset father. The matter of the rogues has already been stressing him a lot these days. I don’t want father and Alaric to argue to add to that.
Soon, the sa enchanting sll wafted in the air that made my heartbeat quicken, I felt its presence. The door unlocked and soone entered with slumped shoulders and their head down. Mother called out to that person, "Myra dear co, we have been waiting for you."
As Myra ca closer and closer, I could feel the flowery fragrance enhancing. My senses went chaotic by that. I tried to control myself with all my might, not to do anything which I surely will regret.
I looked at her face which was pale and swollen and my heart ached at the sight of it.
’Wait, why? Why does MY heart is aching, seeing her all dull and pale?’ I asked myself this question, but couldn’t find the answer to it.
