The Alpha’s Contract



Chapter 0459

Brax

*You need to take it out." I hand Madison a scalpel, but her hand is already shaking and I close my other hand around hers. "It's making me weaker. I don't know how weak it will make me and I need it out."

*You have to do this Madison, I can't reach, well not to do a clean job." I tip her face up to mine. Her chestnut eyes are filled with panic. "The scan shows you exactly where it is located. It's a quick and easy job."

"I can't... we can take you back. Get Klaus to do it." She pleads

*There isn't any time for that. I need it out before it takes everything from me. I have you to take care of. My baby girl is back in Black Shadow, probably wondering where I am again."

I watch her close her eyes and take a few deep breaths. Her hand steadies and she nods. "Okay."

I lay face down on the table and feel the cool metal of the scalpel as she holds it over the spot between my shoulder blades.

As she presses down, my warm blood spills down my spine. The pain from the cut is minimal, but still, she repeatedly tells me that she is sorry.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Madison uses something else to dig into my wound. She pauses when I let out a small grunt, eventually pulling a tiny ball out of me. She drops it into a bowl and it makes a sound like metal, yet it doesn't look anything like metal. I will take it back to Black Shadow, maybe Klaus can tell me what it is.

*I got it." She whispers, looking for somewhere to clean the blood off of her hands.

Instantly I felt better. I look at Madison and smile when I realise I could see her entire soul once again. How could one tiny thing cause so many problems?

*Now your turn." I mutter.

"Me?"

"I need to check first. In the scanner."

"He took away my abilities."

"You said he injected you with something. If it is the same what was in me. I can get it out and you can have your Lycan abilities back."

I scan her multiple times. Nothing shows up. Not a single thing out of the ordinary. So why had something different been used on me?

For a brief second, Madison seemed frustrated that we couldn't find anything. It gave me a little hope that deep down, she did want her abilities back.

*I hate him." She mutters quietly as she gently cleans the blood from my back.

*Understandable.

She moves around the table to face me and stands between my spread legs. "How can someone be this cruel? Why would he feel the need to do this to people they don't even know?"

"He thinks he's a God."

*Pfft. It just doesn't make sense."

*Alot of the time it doesn't." I wipe a speck of blood from her cheek. "Deep down, everyone has a dark element. Some it never shows, others, it takes over completely."

*You are talking about Rogues?"

"Yep. The problem is, we have a man that is half Witch. If that part of him is stronger, he can channel the dark side that would otherwise have turned him Rogue."

She tilts her head down, a wrinkle appears between her brows as she frowns. "So how do we beat him?"

"Neah and Klaus,"

*Just Neah and Klaus?"

"I believe so. I told you Klaus is a Witch Hunter."

*Neah can't link him, can she?"

*She can when he is vulnerable. That will be the key."

"You have a plan, don't you?"

"I'm working on something. I will talk to Neah tomorrow. Tonight, we stay here and get a decent nights sleep." "Do you think he will come back?"

*If he does, it will just be a projection of him. He won't actually be here."

Madison sleeps tightly curled up into me. All evening, her eyes had been darting around the house, looking for him. She was even sleeping in one of my tshirts because she didn't want him to see her naked.

Anytime, I made a hint of a move to pleasure her, she would tell me no. Something about Cooper projecting himself made her nervous and vulnerable.

I don't sleep. Not a single wink. I was aware there were more Rogues out there than just the two that tried to kill me. I could smell them near my house, but was it worth leaving my already scared mate, by herself?

I lay awake, listening to their sounds. There were at least eight. Eight that prowled around below my bedroom window. But not a single one tried to enter the house. They could smell that we were here. I was expecting one to try a door handle. Or one to climb the side of my building and try a window, but they don't.
