Fated To My Lycan Stepbrothers
Chapter 106

"It's okay here." Zeke suddenly said and the guard stopped at some point. Kyle was still asleep. I guess my powers made his worries go away- enough for him to sleep off. "Why are we stopping here?" I peered outside in worry.

What if something came to attack us? Zeke said we weren't in our territory yet. We could be on some shape shifter's land or something.

"We are in the pack's territory." Zeke was the first to come out of the car to scan the surroundings. He looked around carefully. As of replaceing what he wanted, he waved at us to come out. "Look." He pointed at some scrubs that looked ordinary from afar, but something was definitely wrong with it. "Should you ever replace yourselves out here without help, go there. The Z patrol team keeps guard from there. Be careful so they don't attack you."

I gulped. This must be the side of the territory the Z patrol team guarded. They were the strongest set of the warriors in our pack and I could not contain my excitement. Were they as big as Zeke and Kyle?

Or Alpha storm himself? Would they be muscular or skinny? I would laugh if they looked skinny. "What are we supposed to do?" If I didn't want to die, I better listen to Zeke who was reaching out in the car to tap Kyle2 patrol team awake.

"Come on brother. We are in the territory." Kyle's eyes fluttered open. "What? But... Beta."

"Sh." Zeke out his index finger to keep him quiet. "I am sorry, 1 didn't do as we discussed. Get ready to meet him."

Kyle was wide awake this time around. "Was that why you took us on this silly journey? What if they followed us down here?"

"It's fine. I checked." Zeke said instead, putting his hands around him. Although the flesh may have healed on the surface, his body still needed time to heal his insides so he would be in pain for sometime.

Kyle winced as he balanced himself around Zeke. Then he sniffed the air.

"Something doesn't smell right."

I glanced at him. "You noticed it too?"

Zeke's gaze was on me in an instant. "What is wrong?

Everything here has been designed to deceive naive wolves like you. I wouldn't be surprised if it seemed strange to you."

I shook my head. That was not what I was thinking about.

"I mean, it has been arranged to look like this, but doesn't it look too perfect to you?"

Zeke and Kyle seemed confused. "She may be right. It looks too perfect and something smells awful here." Kyle added softly.

Zeke sniffed the air, shaking his head. "I think my sense of smell got damaged because I can't smell s**1. Come on, let's check it out." He led and we all followed

My eyes never left the scrubs. We were wolves so there should be mistakes. We had just stepped into a clearing just to draw attention when it was eerie quiet instead. I was right. Something was wrong. "No one is attacking yet.." I muttered

Zeke stopped me from talking further. "Get down!" He suddenly yelled and we all ducked in time to see darts hitting the soft soil opposite us. I gasped in shock.

"What the f**k?"

"s**t! We are all going to die!" One of the guards yelled like a female wolf and I frowned at him.

"Get a grip of yourself. It's just the patrol team and they will soon recognise their Alpha." I deadpanned. He was stupid enough to think we were barbarians like the Alpha of the blood moon pack who could easily sacrifice his own wolves to get his foolish desires. I hate him for doing just that alone- turning those wolves into something monstrous for power. It showed just how much of a weakling he was to me. Zeke, Kyle, and I remained crouched in the clearing as the darts embedded themselves into the soil around us. The guards who had driven us here seemed to be in a state of panic, but I knew that these were our own pack members. They wouldn't harm us unless they had a good reason. Although their state of panic was funny.

It didn't take long before several figures emerged from the underbrush, surrounding us with an air of tension. Despite being asked to stay still, I couldn't help but observe their approaching figures.

My heart raced as I took in their appearance. They were just as I imagined. Impressive, muscular and expressionless faces. The fascinating part was they were neither Alphas or Betas. If they were in a fight, who would win? I couldn't wait to compare Zeke with a real Beta. I haven't seen Beta Brooke yet.. so.

"Stay down," Zeke whispered, his eyes fixed on the approaching figures. "Let me handle this!"

As the members came closer, the tension in the air gradually eased, and they lowered their weapons of axes and spears. It was as if they recognised Zeke from first glance. I mean, who wouldn't? Zeke was just as big as they were.

It was only terrifying as he was still a teenager. Most of the time he acted like an adult which made him a full mate material. A man soon stepped out of the bundle. He was just as tall with scars of war littering his broad face. "Alpha Zeke," he greeted with a respectful nod. "Apologies for the precautions. We've been on high alert ever since the attack on Beta Brooke."

And why was he talking like a robot? Urgh! He was going to make this conversation very boring. I straightened myself immediately, not liking the way I crouched low. I nearly broke my back!

Wait a minute.. Beta Brooke? "Beta Brooke?" I asked in shock. They found him?

Zeke glanced at me briefly before acknowledging the apology with a nod of his own. He helped Kyle up. The guards weren't complaining like I was, but they subtly hid behind me like I could protect them from these big men! They were like Alpha males, except they trained really to get there. "Scar, no need to apologize. I am surprised you recognise me."

I knew he was going to have some ridiculous war name as scar.

Scar nodded. "You've grown, Zeke, Kyle. Your father taught you well, seeing as you dodged those darts."

Hm. I could swear I saw Flame briefly before we ducked.

Flame had a hand in this... didn't he?

Scar patted Zeke's thick back with his thick fingers. "Come, we need to talk privately." We were about to follow him in when he stopped us.

"You didn't tell me your names." He growled, and instantly his claws were out and ready to take a swing at my throat.

Jeez.

Kyle placed his hands over me. "She is ours and those two are here because of her. They are loyal to her as well as us." loved the way he claimed me. It sent delicious shivers down my spine.

I couldn't contain my excitement, leaning over to Zeke.

"This is amazing. Just like I imagined in my head." Zeke chuckled softly. "You'll get used to it, Naya."

Scar sighed. He couldn't investigate us without the Alphas consent. "Alright."

Kyle scoffed at my enthusiasm, he was going to start teasing anytime from now. "You'll get to know them better soon." It wasn't promising better things. He gave a slight laugh at my expression. "Why are you pouting?" "I have a feeling you are going to ask me to train with scar.

Are you?" I asked, a bit terrified of sparring with Scar. He didn't seem very nice unlike the rest. In fact, none of them were nice.

"Don't worry, a day would be enough to shut your snappy mouth shut forever." Kyle said. See? I knew he was up to something! It wasn't always good.

Scar guided us through a path then gestured to a cottage at the far end of the clearing. "We were attacked yesterday

night."

Zeke groaned in annoyance.

"Why?"

"You know why." Scar quickly said. "Doctor Alonsaid he already told you. Or rather, your brother forced the truth out of him. We were very specific about not letting it out."

"It could not have been Ali. It's the spy. There's a spy in our pack." Kyle supplied angrily.

"We heard of the Alpha's death. We were preparing to come here when Beta Brooke came to us." He pointed at the large scar in his shoulders. "I got that trying to dodge a wolfsbane bullet."

"You shouldn't have hidden the truth from me, you know. I contemplated using my powers to command you, but I could never do that to one of my father's loyal fighters." Zeke's voice was low. Scar's voice was even lower. Your father wouldn't have died if Beta Brooke or we were there."

Yeah, yeah, my mother would have had her way if she wanted. It wasn't a matter of if they were there. The earlier they stopped feeling guilty, the better.
