Fated To The Lycan Brothers
Chapter 91

All of us were restless. We hadn't really slept much ever since Suri disappeared, and even when she was back with us, it's like all of our anxiousness had just been heightened even more. Especially now that we knew that she was one of us.

It still seemed crazy and unbelievable, but the facts couldn't lie. We saw her with our own eyes. She was a Lycan, a creature that stood on her two legs and was built as big as a tree trunk, and my heart beat erratically when I got close to her. I thought back then my connection to her was already strong. The way I could sense her instantly even if she was quite a feet away or the way her scent could linger for hours in whatever she passed by or touched. I felt her deep in my heart and my bones, but when we got to her in that woods in Ohio...

Holy Moon Goddess, it was nothing like I have ever felt before in my life. It was ten times stronger and the gravitational pull towards her seemed like it was taking over my body.

When my brothers and I talked about it, they said they felt the same way as well. Suri was undoubtedly made for us and we couldn't bear the thought of being without her.

We laid her down on her bed as soon as we got home and fortunately, she didn't seem to be in any distress. We were glad that she managed to fall asleep continuously and is still doing so, because honestly, we had no idea how to explain everything to her because we didn't even understand it ourselves.

We wouldn't know where to begin, and so it was better for her to be asleep and get some rest while we tried to figure out things. It was past five in the morning already and the sun was already rising and covering everything with its bright beams and rays. "Boys."

We turned to see Keith standing by Suri's door, the light from her living room illuminating him slightly, and though we could barely see him, we could tell that he was also still under a lot of pressure based on how stiff and tense his posture was. "We should talk. I need to show the three of you something."

Atlas was quick to contradict. "We're not leaving Suri," he said with a strong tone.

Keith let out an exasperated sigh. "I understand you three are on edge and need to keep Suri safe, but nothing can harm her here. My office is just downstairs and it's getting really late. You all need to get some sleep, too, as well as I but I really, really need for you all to see this first."

We all turned to Suri at the same time, concerned that if we left her for just a second, something would happen to her, which we knew was unlikely, but we couldn't help it. We were attached to her.

"It's from your mother," Keith added and our heads snapped back to where he stood.

"Mom? What- what do you mean it's from her?" I asked, my voice a tone of disbelief and confusion.

"I mean that she left it for you to watch and I've got it ready to play downstairs, and I do think this video might help answer some of our questions." Keith explained.

We all glanced at each other and though hesitant, we knew what we had to do. We didn't want to leave Suri, but if it meant replaceing answers from our mom, then we had to get to the bottom of it.

"Why are you just telling us now that she left a video for us?" Atlas asked and I could hear the slight indignation in his tone. He asked the question that was in all our minds.

Keith stepped into his office and when he opened the door, there was a white screen positioned by the couch. I suddenly felt very nervous.

"Because she was determined to keep this a secret from you. She was determined to keep this to her grave." He answered with a straight tone and we all sat down quietly.

"Do you know what it's about?" Wes asked and my usually full of humor brother was nothing but serious right now.

Keith shook his head. "I have no idea. I haven't watched it. I was waiting for the three of you because it is your video. It is addressed to you."

"Okay, then play it. We're ready." Atlas exclaimed and we all simultaneously took deep breaths.

Then Keith clicked play.

Eve Wolfe

Ever since I was a little girl, I knew my life was different. Or more specifically, that I was different.

Unfortunately, it was not in a good nor positive way.

I learned this the hard way when I was taken from my parents just a few days after I turned sixteen. I didn't understand it back then, the reason why we had to keep running and running, but I fully understand it now. Though we only came from a small Pack, my parents were Alpha and Luna and they were very well-respected as well as honored by many of our people. We were a small but tight-knit Pack.

Unfortunately, it all changed when we were visited by a Lycan. It was supposed to be an honor, but it became a nightmare for us.

The very next day, tragedy struck our Pack as everything we owned was burned down to the ground. My parents managed to pull me out. Sadly, it wasn't the same for my brother who was supposed to be the future Alpha. I still mourn him everyday.

After that, we never stopped running. We never stayed in one place for more than three days. Five would be the maximum and that would be when we didn't have much of a choice due to unavoidable circumstances.

The day I learned the reason why my parents never let me out of their sight was the day they could no longer see me again.

It was when the same Lycan that visited our Pack claimed their lives right in front of me. He smiled in his terrifying form while he mercilessly killed the only family I had left and made me watch. That was why my parents kept running... because they were trying to keep me away from this demon.

After that, my life had spiraled down to pure hell.

I was flown to a place somewhere in Russia and was kept in a dungeon, chained with a bunch of other female wolves and we all had one thing in common - the curse of conceiving Lycan heirs.

It is said that there are only a handful of wolves that have the ability to sustain something so powerful in them. Due to the fact that there were no more female Lycans aside from the Lycan Queen, many male Lycans opted to hunt for female wolves that could give them an heir, and if they were lucky, a female Lycan.

Most would consider it as a blessing, but to me who was violated by three different Lycans day in and day out, it was nothing but a horrific nightmare to me.

Each day, a female wolf would come out of the dungeon and never to be seen again. As days turned into weeks, to months, and then years, I hoped that it would one day be me. That this suffering of mine would end. But it seemed to never end.

Eventually, I decided that for this to be all over, I would have to do it myself. I would have to rid myself of my suffering.

On the day I was supposed to attempt my escape with a high chance of getting killed, I found out I was pregnant.

Not with one... but three children.

I had no idea it was possible, but the Lycan's doctors checked and it was all there. Somehow, inside of me, I began to grow three different boys with three different fathers.

The torture had subsided in the meantime. Overnight, I went from a Lycan's concubine to their most precious she-wolf. They bathed me, dressed me, fed me, and gave me everything that I needed and more.

For some time, I was blinded by the lavishness and comfort of it all. I thought that this could last forever, that maybe all my suffering had finally bore good fruits and once my babies were born, we could all live a good life together.

I was sorely mistaken.

One night, I overheard the three of them talking and they boasted of their strong lineage and how mighty their kids would grow up, but the worst part of it all? They talked about how they were going to throw me back in the dungeon and use me all over again the second those babies were out of my womb.

I was terrified and angry that I was stupid enough to believe that my life would be better from now on.

I had to make a choice, but I did not have a lot of options. I couldn't let myself die because that would mean killing my babies, too. But I began to think about the kind of life they would live and how monstrous the men who were going to raise them. I didn't want my babies to turn into monsters.

By the time I managed to come up with a plan, I was already close to giving birth, but I was not going to let it stop me. I either had to escape or die trying.

It turns out that on the day itself, I was going to meet my savior.

I was going to meet the Lycan King.

It had all worked out well, I suppose. The way I got past the guards and he managed to see me right before they could do any harm. He helped me flee in a heartbeat. He told me he had no idea what was happening here, but that he was going to make it all better. He opened his home to me, but as much as I appreciated his kindness, I knew being in this world was no longer for me.

I was too scared, and I didn't want my babies to live here either.

So with barely enough time before giving birth, the King helped me as much as he could to leave. I moved to America and tried to replace a good life for us there.

Unfortunately, it wasn't a dream I thought it was going to be. After giving birth, I had used up most of the money the King gave me and I needed to work, but having no credentials and whatnot, I struggled to replace anybody that would take me in.

I fought the thoughts of coming back to the wolf world countless times, and when I thought there was no more hope, he showed up.

Keith Whitford, mine and my boys' savior.

Third Person

"I love you, Keith. I love you endlessly because you have no idea how much you have saved us. You are a kind soul. A pure and goodhearted man in such a cruel world. Thank you for everything you did for me and my boys, and I assume that when you watch this, I will be long gone, and I'm sorry. I'm sorry to you, to my beloved boys, for whatever reason it is that I am no longer with you all. But please know that I love all of you with all my heart and all my soul. I'm sorry for keeping this from you, but I had to. And you need to promise me. Promise me that you will never ever go to that world. No matter what happens, never look for those monsters. They are dangerous men with a lot of power and you are better with Keith. Please. Atlas, Wesley, and Devon. Please don't look for them. I love you, my boys. You are forever in my heart."

When the screen had faded to black, everyone in Keith's office was speechless.

Keith, the boys, they all blinked at the screen and words were unable to form in their heads.

This... this is what she had been keeping from all of them. She had been keeping it for their own safety, but now that they know how much their mother had suffered, their hearts couldn't help but break for her.

If only they had known, they thought. Maybe they could have helped her more, but they were merely just kids, and Keith knew that Eve was strong but very hardheaded. She would never have let anyone know unless it was time, and he was glad that at least it was out there. That they could have some kind of resolve with her death.

But there was one thing that stuck with him the most.

"The last female Lycan in the wolf world is the Queen, the Lycan King's mate," Eve said.

Stella, though human, managed to conceive Suri, a female Lycan and because of her rarity, it was likely that her life would be in grave danger now.

"What are we going to tell Suri?" Atlas was the first one who managed to speak up.

"Everything. From her mother, to yours, and to what she really is. We have to help her understand that this is her world now, but whatever happens, we are in this world together." Keith exclaimed and, with wide open arms, the boys stood up and hugged each other. Together.
