Chapter 148
(Author’s POV)
Clement arched his brow, “That’s quite unfortunate. But we still need confirmation about this matter. Then only can we proceed further,” Clement proposed. “Now, only young Alpha Brave can tell us what the truth is p>
Noah and Sara agreed as they both still thought that Brave must have mistaken Myra as Hannah in his bloodied and semi-conscious state.
They too doubted the possibility of Myra as his mate. But as nothing was confirmed, they all waited for Brave to regain consciousness.

Myra was half way near the airport and had just crossed the bustling and downtown area of Kimberg, which led to another road surrounded by lush green trees.
Light drizzle of rain started falling as a waft of earthy scent hit Myra’s nostrils and easing her senses. Suddenly, the drive pulled the break on and the car stopped. Myra jolted and asked in confusion, “What happened? Is there any problem p>
But when she looked straight, she immediately understood why he halted.
A large tree has been uprooted and was covering most of the road. The driver commented tiredly, “The rain last night was terrible. Ma’am, you wait here for a minute. I will just clear the road enough for us to pass p>
Myra nodded at his suggestion, the cab driver got out and started clearing the path. Meanwhile, she checked the time and there was about an hour for her departure.
With no choice left, she too left the vehicle and started helping the driver to clear the road, picking up scattered stems and branches. They worked efficiently and another ordinary car pulled up behind them and came out.
Myra as well as the driver thought they too were in hurry just like them and were glad because more hands meant the blocked road would be cleared faster.
But instead of helping them, those two bulky and body builder type men smiled lecherously, looking at Myra’s drenched back. Her clothes were sticking to her body as they stepped closer and stood behind her, entrapping her.
Myra felt odd and looked back immediately. Those two were just a meter apart from her and wore a sickly grin which alerted her senses. In that moment, she brandished the thick and rough branch at them, shouting, “YOU STAY AWAY FROM ME. I warn you p>
The driver, who was a few paced ahead heard her shaken voice and turned around. He yelled and ran towards them, warning them, “Back off. Not on my watch p>
Those shameless men didn’t even flinch after those threats. Instead, they started laughing like a devil while one of them comment, “Ahhhhh… humans are so damn cute. They think that by that flimsy piece of wood will they kills us. Hahahhahah p>
The other one joined in and looked straight at Myra, whose face has lost its color. He licked his lips thirstily, “Baby, let me tell you. We aren’t going anywhere without you. You are coming with us. After having our fun, we will let you go. You just need to relax and enjoy the moment p>
They started laughing viciously as they tried to touch Myra.
The driver got angry and swung his branch at them, in an attempt to injure them. One of them held it with his bare hand like a twig and the wood snapped into two.
Then he kicked the driver in the chest harshly and the driver went flying, landing roughly on the ground. Blood started oozing out of his head and painting the asphalt red.
Myra’s eyes went bloodshot. She has already guessed that they were not humans. She was scared, more scared than last night. Her body trembled uncontrollably as fear seeped into her very bones. At least there was an escape root but this time there was no escaping it. Her internal thoughts buzzed as alarm bells flared inside her head.
’I need to get out of here,’ she recited inwardly.
Inside her pocket, a pepper spray was sitting there. She pulled the bottle out, sprayed it at them and started sprinting inside the forest.
Caught off guard, they grunted in burning pain and cursed loudly, “You bitch, we just wanted to give you some fun time. But a slut like you, clearly don’t deserve our kindness. Run run as much as you can. But wench, you can’t escape your fate today. We will violate you, crush you, parade you and then dump your body inside the sea. The sharks will enjoy their meal p>
Myra kept on running and sprinting without any particular aim. She searched for her phone which was inside her back pocket, took it out to call for help. The only people who could help her in this situation was the Everests. In any other circumstances, she wouldn’t have thought to call them but this situation was dire and life threatening.
She took her phone out and tried to make a call to Nora, but the phone was line went engaged. Breathlessly, she called repeatedly while running but the call didn’t connect.
Abandoning the idea to call Nora, she switched to Elio, but remembered she doesn’t have neither his nor Dion number. The only Everests number she had on her phone was Alaric.
After shopping inside the mall, Myra has asked for Alaric’s phone number. With no other choice, she called him helplessly. He was her only hope.
The ringing sounded echoed near her ear, matching the sound of her heartbeat. After sixth ring, a grumpy and cold sound was heard, “Hello”
“Ala ric, H… e… l… p,” Myra’s voice shook from fear and crying, as she said this.
“Who have you called?” he spat from the other side.
“It s, m…e, My~ ra. HE~ LP ME,” as soon as she said this the call disconnected because the signal was gone.
She frantically kept on running inside deep forest and soon found a small place to hide.
She looked back and saw those men haven’t reached her yet. So, she decided to hide there.
Myra teared a piece off clothing off of her and stuck it on a tree branch which was in the opposite direction. She even took off her shoes and threw it in that very direction, to confuse them. Then, she made her way towards the hiding spot.
