The Alpha’s Contract

Dane

She scowls at me. "Is that.... ls that even a possibility?”

“Right now, it seems like anything is.”

“Because I'm a monster?"

“You need to stop calling yourself that.”

She rolls on her back, staring up at the ceiling. Sighing, she rests her hands on her flat stomach.

“They will all react like that.” She mumbles, puffing out her cheeks. “You...you are the only one that doesn't seem...

‘I'm not bothered by what you are. All I care about is that you are mine and why are you still insisting on wearing clothes to bed?” I pull her in against me. She lets out a little gasp as my hand goes up under her oversized tshirt and grazes her lower back.

Unexpectedly, she pushes me away.

“I can't.” she whispers and tugs the tshirt back down over her hips.

She was fighting hard to try and not think of something. Trying to keep her mind clear so I wouldn't know what the problem is Pinning her to the bed, I drop my weight on top of her. “What's wrong?”

“You're....crushing my.....lungs.”

I ease my weight off of her just a little. But not enough that she can escape from under me.

“Are you still feeling a little tender?”

She closes her eyes.

“And you are embarrassed?” I drive a leg between hers, forcing her thighs apart.

Her head shakes a tiny bit. “Uncomfortable.” she whispers

Kissing the mark on her neck, I tell her I will let her be, just for tonight. Only then, does she relax. She drops off to sleep before I do, curled up into my side.

‘We need to stop Trey and Cassandra.’ Aero mumbles. ‘They almost caused a war in the neutral zone.” I know.’

‘We both know there are others out there that are desperate to knock us down a peg or two.’

‘I know.’ I mutter again, running my fingers through my mates dark hair. You know Row angry I’ve been, > Aero. I wish we had been there ons that shehad never gone. But I can’t change what has happened. ‘ean

only make sure something lke that river happens again.’ Coritent

Looking down at Neah, her eyelashes fluttered on her cheeks as she slept peacefully. Seemingly unaware of the anger that was growing inside of me.

I need to run.’ I mumble to Aero, slipping myself out from Neah’s grasp. I think we should speak to Devon again.’ He tells me

He didn’t know that Neah was going into the city.’

No, maybe he can give us a better understanding of what they might be planning now. Or maybe he will at least be able to predict their plan.’

Pulling ona pair of shorts, I make my way throWgh the house and out into the fallity snow. Thecold beneath my bare feet offered some relief frem the constant warmth-of my body. Walking through the snow tothe dungeon, I see a guard: leaning against the door, Bored out of his mind. ike)

“Any problems?” I ask “No, keeps himself to himself.” The guard mumbles, stepping aside to let me through the door.

The guard clases the door behind me as soon as I turn on the lights.

"Really, it ‘s-the middle of the night?” Devon mutters. He apologises when he sees me. “lim not the greatest whent aven't had sleep. What can I do for you Alpha Dane?” He © stretches out his limbs and_yawns.

“Neah.” I mutterNôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“You are going to need to give me a little bit more information than that.” He rubs his eyes. “You keep talking about Neah, being this Alpha.”

“She is.

“Right. What is she capable of?”

“No one knows for certain. I’ve tried researching, but the most I came across is how somecne in her position will be of great power. They just need to know how to tap into it.

“Are you talking magic? Like a Witch.” “Honestly Alpha Dane. I don't know. I just know that she will be able to get us back to our rightful status in the world.

“And that's why they fear her?”
