(Brave’s POV)
"Brave did you find any trace for the prowler who was seen outside the pack territory late last night?" Alaric asked . Both Elio and Dion turned towards as well, anticipating for my reply.
I told them about our findings and what father has told earlier in the study.
Dion had a look of surprise as he asked, "Father?"
"Ummhmm~, he will personally oversee the matter as all four of us are departing today and Nora and mother will be busy with the trial in hand," I inford them.
Everyone nodded in understanding. Then, we all heard footsteps and turned to see Nora’s figure as she approached us. She had a look of relief on her face as she exclaid, "Thank moon goddess, you all didn’t leave yet." She gave a brief nod in my direction, which I reciprocated.
Dion was quick to ask her, "Why did you call us here? What’s going on?"
She paused, a wide grin gracing her lips in that instant as she said, "I have sothing to give you all."
"You have sothing for us? What is it? I am getting all excited now," Elio inquired, his voice lodramatic.
"It is nothing fancy, just~ *sigh*. All of you, please extend your hands and close your eyes," she instructed.
Alaric was quick to extend his hand, his palm facing upwards, as he closed his eyes, "Here." I smiled at his gesture. When it cos to Nora he always behaves obediently.
She walked in his direction and twisted his forearm to the other direction, in pronation position, "Not like this ...... but this."
All of us followed suit and closed our eyes.
"Don’t open your eyes until I tell you to, okay? No peeking, no cheating," Nora warned us, though her voice remained playful.
"Ahhaa~ we will not. Don’t create so much suspense. It is making my hair turn grey by every passing second," Elio teased her as I chuckled at their usual bickering.
Nora held my hand in place and tied sothing on my extended wrist. Instinctively, I tried to take a look but she was quick to reprimand , "Brother Brave, I said no peeking," her voice stern.
I quickly closed my eyes, "My bad. I apologize," and waited for her to speak again. After few seconds have passed, she huffed and spoke, "Phew, now you all can open your eyes. Open and tell , do you like it?"
We all did as we were told and opened our eyes simultaneously. I glanced at my wrist, a simple red string like bracelet was fastened on it, a tiny moon shaped charm dangling from it as well.
I caressed the bracelet with my other hand. Elio’s laughter echoed as he asked her, "What is this, Nora? Why are you making all of us wear such glittery bracelet? Is it friendships day yet?"
Nora puffed her cheeks and rolled her eyes at his comnt, "These are not friendship bands but protection bracelets which custom made by , for you all. The charm beaded in each one, is a moon jewel, which I acquired myself. But if you don’t want to wear, then give it back." She extended her hand to take the bracelet off of Elio’s wrist but he was quick to dodge her.
"Not a chance, kiddo. I am not giving it to anyone. It’s a gift from my baby sister. And who said I don’t want to wear it? It is just that, it looks a bit ... umm~ how should I put it .... Maybe, feminine on us, not matching our Lycan Alpha personalities," Elio added, patting his biceps while flexing them.
"So, what? I am a Lycan Alpha too," Nora boasted proudly, "Plus, a female as well," while flicking her hair.
Everyone of us were left speechless by her remark.
Truthfully, we aren’t called Lycan Alphas just because we are the descendant of the Lycan King but because we have Lycan powers bestowed to us, supernatural abilities given by the moon goddess. Nora also knew it well, so we were all shocked to hear her words. It could only an one thing.
"Did you~ ... did you manifest your powers?" Alaric asked, there was a rare look of joy as well as shock on his face. I also felt the sa, just like my twin. Because if Nora manifests Lycan powers, she wouldn’t need anyone’s protection. It will strength her ntally as well as physically. And also, she will be the first female to have Lycan powers in history of all werewolf kind. That’s a big feature.
She blushed and hesitated while confessing, "I have been trying hard, ditating and practicing. It is not much, but I did manifest it sohow."
"What is it? Your power?" Dion questioned, getting all excited. It was natural reaction as all four of us brothers have different abilities, so we wanted to know what Nora’s powers were.
"I don’t know if it counts as one but I can control water," Nora told us. "Although, it is not to an expert level, not even advanced. You can call it a beginner level. But yeah~ ...... that’s what it is."
My jaw dropped at her words, and I could see the sa reaction on my brothers’ faces, they were dumbfounded by her confession.
"You can control water? Nora, that’s no simple feature. It is an elental supernatural ability, none of us possess, as elental forces are hard to control and ta," I verbalized what I rembered from my heir classes.
Whatever I said, nothing was untrue. In this day and age, to control elental abilities are rare as they directly intervene with the nature’s course.
"That is so cool, Nora," Elio was gushing over the fact that our sister had such a rare power bestowed to her.
But Alaric voiced my concern, "That’s why~ ... that’s why you have been looking exhausted and had so bruises on your body. And here I thought, you were getting bullied in the office. I had asked Amanda to investigate it," his face was etched with worry. He then glanced at Elio and remarked, "Elental magic is much more taxing and takes a lot of ti, focus and training to conquer, even if a little bit. I don’t know what to say ...... I am happy as well as a bit concerned."
