The Alpha’s Contract

Dane

Veronica stomps off, both furious and upset that she hadn't gotten what she wanted. After all these years, I half expected her to be used to it, but still, she remains persistent, looking for a way back in

Though I had to hide my amusement at Neahs thoughts. Once again, the darkness in her makes a subtle appearance. Though only I could hear it. “She's a piece of work.” Devon mutters.

I agree,’ Aero mutters

“Why didn’t you just tell her you're gay?” I ask, ignoring Aero’s ramblingsProperty © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“What would be the fun in that?” Devon smiles, still watching Veronica stomping away, over the snowy grounds. “Besides, she was too dumb to follow what I was saying. So what's the deal there?”

“It's a long story. And one that doesn’t really concern you.” I tell him, I see how his eyes momentarily flicker to Neah, but this time, he keeps his mouth shut. Recognising that he had no authority to question my decisions as an Alpha.

In the house, I ask one of the Omegas to show Devon to his room and insist that he is placed in one of the rooms furthest away from mine.

Neah, Eric and I, head into the office. I needed a plan in place. I needed Trey and Cassandra hunted down and killed. There was no way I was letting either of them find my mate or find someone to impregnate her.

Neah sighs and rubs her eyes. But just like every other time, she sits in silence, regretting her dark thoughts. Questioning herself on how evil she could be.

In my eyes, she wasn't evil. She just wanted revenge, a revenge that was more than deserved. But when it came to it. I wondered if she could actually go through with killing them.

“Take some of the warriors into the city. See if you can find anything.” I tell Eric. I wanted time alone with Neah “Do you want me to take Devon? I mean, he should be able to sense them, right. It might make it a little easier.” “Don't let him out of your sight.”

“Not a chance."

As he stands up to leave, I tell him to kill them on sight. And I notice Neahs lips are a little curved up. Her smile disappears when she realises I’m locking at her and she lowers her face, embarrassed that she had been caught.

“We have wasted enough time.” I tell her. "I'm sick of their games or whatever they want to call it. Death can’t come quick enough for them.”

.. Lalways thought that they ranted me dead but I could never understand why they didn't just kill

e.” Shells her legs up in frontef

rl begged for death. There were right here I wished the oan Goddess wouldn't make mewake in the I morning. I even thougat about throwing myself down the stairs”

“You kept fighting.”

She lets out a heavy sigh. “I didn’t want to.”

“If you hadn't, our paths would not have crossed You would not be sitting daa me, claimed. Instead you'would likely be knocked up, raped by one of the many men i in Moonshine.” I wasn't intentionally trying to scare her, instead, vas toying to give her some hope that everything that has happéned has led her to me.

“If they do find me....”

I cut her off, my eyes locked on hers. “I will burn everything to the ground to find you. But they would also need to kill me first. Or it would kill you anyway.”

To fucking right. The whole world can burn for all I care!’ Aero announces. It was something we could finally agree on

She sits quietly, hugging her legs.

“You know it would be easier if you just spoke tame. As much as I enjoy reading your mind, you do like to make it difficult, with your thoughts not fostissing on one thing. I ‘vetold you.b béfore. You don't have to\keep quiet here. If you have something ike) say, say it.”

She shakes her head at me “Neah?"

She scowls. “W...why would they agree to bind me so many times?”
