The Alpha’s Contract

Neah

Rummaging through the boxes of tiny baby clothes, I make a pile, hoping that I was going to get a link from Damien to tell me Mallory had accepted the little boy.

'She will say yes, won't she?' Nyx asks hopefully

'I hope so.' It was what she needed. It was what Eric needed

'The boys can have playdates.' She mutters happily. 'In the future, he could be the Beta.'

I smile, 'He's a newborn, Nyx. He's not quite ready for that but when the time comes, yes.'

'What if the parents....'

'We will cross that bridge when we get to it!'

'She hasn't said yes.' Damien's voice rumbles through my head and I feel my heart drop. 'But she hasn't said no either.' He adds, 'And she also hasn't taken her eyes off of him.'

'Fingers crossed.' I mutter back and carry on sorting as he drops the link.

'What if she does say no?' Nyx suddenly asks.

'Then I guess we are about to have a third pup.' Though I was definitely not ready for that.

Just as I finish, Damien appears with a smile. “They have taken him home.” He takes the box of baby stuff from me.

"She said yes?"

He nods. "I didn't think she would turn him away. Not after she gave him a name."

"She has?"

He smiles at me, “Luca."

'I love it!' Nyx declares. I'm certain if she had it her way, we would spend our whole time pregnant.

"It looks like Logan and Evrin will have a new friend." I mutter. "Everything in that box should see them through for a couple of weeks until they can get their own stuff."

He locks his eyes on me and nods. His fingers drum on the side of the box. "I won't let her lose him.”

I knew what he was saying.

"Damien, they abandoned him. If they come here, claiming him back, do you really think I'm going to make her hand him over?"

"I just wanted to make sure we are

on the same page." He nods at the

box. "I will take this over to her seeing as you are supposed to be staying inside. I saw Dane coming out of the forest. He was talking to some of the other Wolves, he will probably be here soon."

“Thanks.” He was done with killing those Wolves already. I half expected him to slowly torture them and be gone all night.

I follow Damien down from the attic

and just as he leaves, a blood soaked, half naked Dane makes his

way in. He leaves bloody footprints behind as he makes his way towards me. Damien doesn't even stop, he just carries on walking like it was a usual occurrence to see the Alpha covered in blood.

"Are they dead?" I ask, though I could already tell what the answer was.

"Do you think I would have left if they weren't?"Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"You're angry." I could see it and I could feel it. "But you've dealt with them."

"They were just two Wolves, Neah. Who knows how many other pricks are turning against Black Shadow! I've worked hard to get this pack where it is. And somewhere along the line, people have become lazy and their loyalty is faltering needed them to see what would happen. Remind them of the punishments for disrespecting you and me."

I bob my head.

"You don't disagree?" His tone full of scepticism

"No. I've killed people too." I turn and he grabs my arm, spinning me back around into his blood covered chest. He drags his thumb across my cheek and down to my lips. His breath is hot and heavy as he inhales my scent.

"Where are the twins?" He asks softly

"Sleeping. It's late." I mutter back.

"And the pup?” His anger seems to be waning

"Mallory said she would take him so she has taken him home with Eric. Damien is taking some of the twins' baby bits over for me, you know, to get them set up."

"Good, come shower with me." He lifts me from the ground, pulling my legs around his hips and carries me up the stairs. I was so grateful that I didn't wear white.

He's purposely slow as he strips me, inching my clothes off of me as though he is unwrapping a fancy gift. As he does, he leaves bloody fingerprints on my clothes and my body.

Stepping into the hot water, watery blood quickly circles the drain and Dane holds me tight, ensuring my back is firmly against his chest while his hardening cock presses into the small of my back as he cups my stomach.

He presses his lips against the small spot right below my ear. A place that both tickled and turned me on. "When do I get to put another pup in you?”
