The Alpha’s Contract

He narrows his eyes at me and I shrug my aching shoulders at him “Blood feeders. That's all you need to know.” The way he barely speaks of them, made me pretty sure I didn’t want to meet them anyway.

Shifting a little on the bed, Alpha Dane presses a button and the whole bed begins to move, pushing my back up until I was sat up, looking at him. He had a serious expression, his lips pursed a little as a small crease appears on his forehead

“You need to tell me when something doesn't feel right.”

'I..... [thought I was just really, really tired. My head felt a little fuzzy, it still does."

He leans over me, placing his fists on the bed, inches from both sides of my hips. His face is close, his scent is wildly intoxicating. “I can't lose you.” He mutters in a low voice. “I won’t lose you.”

His crimson eyes bore into mine. My thighs involuntarily clamp themselves together as I gaze back at him. He had this ability of making you want to obey him

My head bobs up and down and he grabs my face, kissing me. His tongue briefly skims mine, and he quickly pulls away

“I have to let you rest.”

He sounds annoyed and disappointed. I spot his swollen bulge and I wondered how difficult it was, having to restrain himself right now. “If you were here for anything else. I would fuck you, right here, in this bed.” He murmursNôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

He moves away. sitting in the chair and watches me. He doesn’t speak, but his gaze tells me everything. When I’m given the all clear, I won't be leaving the bedroom

It's hours before Raven lets me go. She puts me through loads of tests. Asking my full name, where I was, if I could tell her what day it was and then there were the physical challenges. The more tests and questions she asked , the more impatient Alpha Dane grew.

“Raven, surely you have all your answers by now?” He snaps. He still hadn't left other than to use the bathroom. “I’m just being thorough. I don't need you biting my head off because I missed something.

He frustratedly waves at her to carry on.

I do everything she asks, but she still insists that when I go back to the packhouse, I rest.

“I'm okay.” I whisper

‘I’m not taking any chances.” She turns to her brother, folding her arms across her chest. “Nothing physical for a couple of days.

We walk slowly back towards the house, just like the first time I had been in the pack hospital, I refused to let him carry me, insisting that I needed to stretch my legs.

Devon hovers closely behind too, like they were both expecting me to drap at any moment or maybe they thought that I was going to be drugged again.

Alpha Dane glances at me. He was still listening to my thoughts.

“Just take your time.” He murmurs. “I’m not going anywhere. I know you are aching.

Trey and the others would never have cared about something like that. They would have forced me to work through the pain, ensuring I suffered more

“And I will make them suffer too.” He adds

“You will have to beat me to it.” Devon mutters from behind me. "Even that Veronica I would have made her suffer more than just feeding her to the Wolves.

I freeze at his comment. Fed her to the Wolves? Did he mean actual wolves or the pack? “You don’t need to worry about it.” Alpha Dane mutters to me and I see him glare at Devon

“Sorry, I will keep my mouth shut.” Devon sucks in his cheeks, avoiding making eye contact with me.
