Chapter 246
(Author’s POV)
“Hey~ Yelena stop sulking now. You know why I stopped you earlier,” Myra uttered.
“Arghh… I know, I know, I get it. But~… shit I just feel really pissed off right now. That girl, I have heard about her a bit from my new classmates. She has recently transferred into Red Stone School of Physical Education and Sports and had been making headlines for her flirtatious moves. Apparently, she is some hotshot Not like your average Red Stone hotshot, but VVIP types. She~… she seems like bad news to me,” Yelena rambled on and on about Elisa.
“Not every rumor is true, don’t you know that. Maybe people are envious of her or something. Ugh~ I don’t understand why are we even talking about a third person who is irrelevant to us,” Myra spoke, but she wasn’t too sure whether Elisa was irrelevant or not.
“I don’t give a fuck about her, two dimes. The one I am worried about is Fabian, that idiot,” Yelena mumbled.
“Fabian knows what’s best for him. He will handle his affairs. And we are still unclear of their relationship. So, let’s not divulge into anymore. You are thinking too much right now,” Myra said with what best she could understand of the situation. She then added, while looking at her phone’s display, “By the way, don’t you have a class to attend p>
When Yelena realized the time, she exclaimed loud enough to hear the passersby’s, “Ohhhh holy moth~ moly, I totally forgot. I have to make a run for it. Thanks, see you… bu- bye.” And without waiting for Myra’s reply, she started sprinting towards the direction they came from.
As Myra saw Yelena’s figure fading, she exhaled a heavy breath, “What an eventful day. I already feel weary p>
She had sometime left so she walked leisurely and settled on the lakeside, her thoughts drifting to Yelena’s words and Elisa’s smirk.
’Umm~ maybe Yelena is right. Frankly, that new girl, there is definitely something really odd about her. Like, why would she even give me, a total stranger, a cryptic smile?’ she thought but the other half of her chimed in as well, ’But~ there is another possibility. Maybe Fabian told her about me and Yelena, that’s why she was smiling, looking in my direction and I am just being a delusional freak, thinking it was creepy p>
She stared at the lake, the turquoise foreground and deeper blue background of the waterbody relaxing her mind a bit, ’Let’s not think about it so much. It will only mess up my already chaotic thoughts p>
Her phone vibrated. She took it out of her front pocket and saw there was a text from Yelena, “Just in time, *winking emoji* but my professor seems to be in bad mood, *anxious emoji* Wish me luck p>
Myra cackled at her words and just when she was about to put her phone away, she received another text message, this time it was Fabian, “Good Morning, are you in campus p>
She was taken by surprise, her pupils dilated a little bit. Yesterday, Fabian mentioned that he wouldn’t be able to contact her and Yelena for the time being because of his urgent business and about fifteen minutes ago he was with someone else. She replied, “Morning, yes. How is your work going? Are you on a break right now p>
His response came fast, “I am in the middle of work. Thought of checking up on you p>
Another text came in, “and Yelena p>
Myra nodded, and texted back, “She is in her class right now and I have one, in about half an hour’s time. Don’t worry and get back to work. We aren’t kids p>
She then typed, “By the way, who was the girl with you earlier?” but then backspaced it. Then she typed again, “All the best p>
After that no text came from Fabian’s side and as Myra mentioned, she had another class lined up so she got up from her spot and headed towards the other direction.

Meanwhile at around same time in Kimberg, Brave and Gamma Janet Quinton were discussing security matters as another unidentified wolf was sighted near the territory in the late hours of the night. The warriors chased after him but he was fast and agile. Although, there was no damage reported but this incident can’t be taken lightly.
Brave was considering having a talk with his father about his participation in the meeting with the King of Vampire Clan. As Noah, Sara and Nora would be busy with the trial, at least one person from the Everests family was needed in the territory to look after the matters.
He went straight to Noah’s study and told him about his opinion but Noah straightaway declined, “Jacob Larson, has specifically mentioned that the four of you has to attend the meeting. Plus, I have already discussed with your mother, she and Nora will be attending the trial, while I will be staying within the pack. So, you just have to focus on the task you are given p>
“Isn’t your presence much more viable, father,” Brave uttered. After all, Noah was the Lycan King, he had considerable amount of power to keep the other party at bay.
“So, is your mother’s,” Noah was quick with his response. “She is the most powerful and capable Luna, the mother of Moon Shine Pack. She can handle these matters better than me p>
Brave bit his tongue, as he had spoken out of order.
“Now, that the matter has been settled, have you finished with your packing? Make sure this deal doesn’t affect the peace treaty in anyway. Be vigilant, at all times. Although, Jacob Larson wouldn’t, but Esteria is still vampire clan’s territory. There are a lot of them who doesn’t like us, werewolves,” Noah instructed while adjusting his collar.
“Yes, father,” Brave replied, curtly.
“And~ Noah lifted his eyes to look at Brave directly, “Take care of your brothers p>
Brave blinked and then nodded, “I will, father. Rest assured p>
Although, Noah acted aloof most of the time and didn’t show any tender side to his children, other than Nora, but he loved everyone equally. He was well aware of the fact how Alaric’s temper works. And to him, Dion and Elio were still had a lot to learn. The most levelheaded one amongst them was Brave. He could keep his brothers in check and act rationally.
Noah strode towards Brave, tapped on his shoulders, “I am counting on you,” and went about his business.
Brave pursed his lips as he stood rooted to his spot for a while. Nora’s mind link broke his dazed mind, ’Where are you, brother p>
’I am in the study? Why asking?’ Brave inquired, a smile gracing his lips. He was really fond of Nora.
’When your business is done, come to the back lake. I am waiting for you,’ Nora chimed in and the mind link disconnected.
Brave walked out of the study and headed to the place Nora has called him. As he passed by the living room, Elio was also walking out of the house. He gazed at Brave and questioned, “Are you going somewhere brother p>
“Nora called for me,” was Brave’s reply. “Are you p>
“She called for me too,” Elio added as he made confused face. And then without wasting anytime, they both headed to the small freshwater lake situated at the backside of the packhouse.
On there way, they saw Alaric’s and Dion’s car parked as well and they instantly knew that they were also called by Nora.
As they reached the lakeside, Alaric and Dion, looked at them as Dion was quick to ask, “Did Nora called you guys as well p>
The others nodded in agreement. Alaric then added, “Why would she call us all here? Is she in some trouble? Did she tell any of you p>
But none of them had any idea about it and Nora, she hasn’t arrived yet. Brave mind linked her, ’Nora, where are you? We are at the lake p>
’Give me five minutes. I am on my way, brother Brave. And don’t let anyone leave, okay,’ saying her piece, Nora once again disconnected the link.
Brave relayed her message to others as Elio asked, “Did she sound nervous p>
Brave shook his head and a collective sigh of relief was exhaled by everyone. That means it isn’t anything troublesome. That was a relief.
“Brave, did you find any clues about the intruder from last night?” Alaric inquired.
“He was quite swift with his movements. Father has taken the lead and Gamma Janet is tracking the matter, we will get one soon,” Brave responded.
“Father?” Dion questioned.
“Yes, as everyone is going to get busy. He will be personally overseeing this matter,” Brave told them about the earlier conversation.
As he finished his words, they all heard familiar footsteps and soon Nora approached them.
“Ohhh, thank goddess, you all are still here,” Nora spoke, her voice a mix of relief and joy.
“What happened? Why di you call all of us here?” Dion questioned.
“Ahhh~ I have something to give all of you p>
