The Alpha’s Contract

Chapter 0488

Brax

"Hey, you!" A woman with hair darker than night comes running towards me. I stop in my tracks, sighing. I was supposed to be having dinner with Maddie.

"Yes?" She was the stray that had come back with the others. Full of so many lies.

"Can you help me?"

"That depends." I mutter

"On what?" She cocks a brow at me

"What is it that you want?"

"Can you help me get out of here?" She pleads

"Yes."

She stares at me for a moment. "Will you help me get out of here?"

"No."

She's taken aback by my refusal. "Why?"

"Dane has questions and I believe Neah does too."

"So I'm not allowed to leave?" she scoffs as she narrows her golden eyes. I didn't answer, it was pretty obvious.

*This place is fucked up." She mutters

"Not as fucked up as you running away from your problems." I smile and she glares at me

*Have you spoken to Klaus or that bitch that's at my mates house?"

"No."

"Then how did you know.... Do you see things like that kid?"

*I assume you are talking about Dorothy. Dorothy is my daughter."

She takes a step back as her eyes remain on me. "Two Dads. You are the other Dad."

"That's how she likes it, yes. I take it that you don't like him having someone that calls him Daddy? I kind of agree, but my daughter is happy. She's with him now?"

"When I left, yes. That bitch was there too."

*Calling someone a bitch doesn't mean I know who you are speaking of." I mutterConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Samara."

"Excuse me?"

She shakes her head, lowering her gaze. Unaware of my anger.

"I went there to talk with him and Samara was already there." Her face screws up, "Parading around in his clothes. I could smell her scent on him, but he denies it. He is supposed to be my mate. Mine!*

*One, if he had slept with her after knowing you're his mate, you would likely be dead. Two, the clothes could be because she was a prisoner that had nothing else and she did have a hand in killing her brother. Three Damien isn't like that."

"Like what?"

"Not someone who jumps into bed with everyone. And I can see that you have already taken the time to get to know him." I mutter sarcastically.

I stretch and her eyes catch a glimpse of the gun in my belt. "Why do you have that?"

*Just in case I need to put someone down. Or maybe," I move quickly, pulling it from my belt and pressing it against her temple, "I use it as a waming to liars."

She freezes. "What are you doing?" Her eyes move to the side, focussing on the gun. "Please don't kill me."

"Why are you running from this pack of yours?"

"It's dangerous."

"Bullshit."

"I swear."

"What story did you tell Klaus?"

"The truth."

"You lie."

I watch the gulp as a lump forms in her throat. It happened to everyone I had held a gun to apart from Maddie. She had been ready to die.

"It's the truth." The woman splutters. Content belong to NôvelDráma. Org.

"No it isn't, it's a story you have cooked up. One that you think will pull on the heart strings of others and you sucked Klaus in. I see it, you are full of lies, weaving your own web of shit. What did you tell him? It must have been something good to make him feel sorry for you."

"I swear."

*You keep doing that, but you are not actually telling me what you said to him."

"Daddy?" I turn around to see Dorothy holding Samara's hand. Samara's grey eyes shift between me and Eris and the gun.

"I can tell you what Eris told us." Samara tells me.

"Bitch, you better keep your mouth shut." Eris yells at her.

I push the gun harder against her temple. "Now now, that is not your choice."

"I don't want anyone else to know."

"Then you shouldn't have told them. Or is it because if other people know your lie, you will find it harder to cover it up?" I smile at her. "Dorothy, cover your ears. I don't want you to hear this. What did she say, Samara? And please don't leave out any details."

I listen to how this Eris allegedly had an abortion because of an Alpha. That he found out and she had been running from him until she met Cooper. Samara tells me other things about how Eris was tied up. How Eris told them she didn't want to come, but that was before she told them the lie. How she was from Ashburn city, but they had recently changed their name.
