The Alpha’s Contract

Chapter 0539

Dane

Damien returned Silas back to the beach, but not before Silas gave us his contact number. He agreed that if Serkan was to reach out to him, he would let us know and we would let him know when we are ready to go ahead with the plan.

"Do you believe him?" Samara asks

"Unfortunately, yes." I tell her, though I knew Neah wasn't so sure.

"His mate is a Witch." Samara frowns

"Yes. He could have lied about that. He could have said it was another Wolf, even a Lycan considering he has already told us that Lycans and Wolves have been getting together for a long time in White Cliffs. Yet he chose to tell us what she is."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

*And what about the fire?" Samara's eyes are wide. "She can control fire. Even Coop would have been impressed with that."

*Maybe a fire is why he only has one child." Neah murmurs. "You heard him, she hasn't used her fire power in years. His pup is three."

*I could have asked more, but you didn't want me too." I remind her.

"You didn't see the way he tensed up when he mentioned it. It was barely visible but it was there. His spine straightened a little. His jaw clenched a little tighter." She sighs. "He shows the same signs of irritation as you."

*As me?"

She bobs her head. "It's scary how similar the pair of you are. Even Jenson and Raven were not that similar."

*You don't need to worry about that." I lean down to kiss her but she unexpectedly pulls back. I try to read her mind but Nyx has sealed that off from me.

"What's wrong?" I press.

Her eyes search mine but she doesn't speak. Suddenly lowering her gaze, she shakes her head at me. "It's nothing.

Why is she acting this way?' Aero mutters. 'I don't understand."

The only thing I can think of is that she sees the same thing that happened between Jenson and Raven happening to Silas and myself. She killed Raven because no one else could do it.'

I study my mate but she keeps her eyes low.

It would never happen. I'm much stronger than my twin, that much was clear. He was busy taking orders from a mad man.

*If his wife and pup escape. Are they going to stay in Black Shadow?" Samara asks trying to break the tension

It was a difficult choice. I couldn't have a Witch in my pack, not if I wanted Klaus to return and not after what the last Witch put everyone through. She may not be like that, but at the same time, it wasn't worth the risk.

"We will see." I mutter. It would need to be a conversation with the pack.

When Damien returns, he informs us that Silas has asked if we are sure we want to go ahead with this plan.

Neah nods her head. "Serkan needs to know that he doesn't control me. And it's like I said. If he wants me, he can come to me."

"Exactly what I told him." Damien winks at her. He turns to Samara, "Come on, time to let the Alphas be alone together."

I turn to Neah and easily lift her out of the chair. Taking her place while pulling her on my lap.

"You're trying to distance yourself. Why?"

"I'm not." She whispers

"Then tell Nyx not block me out."

'I...'

"It won't happen. My mind isn't as weak as my sisters. The only people that are allowed in my head are my pack and that is purely to speak to me. I can see that you are frustrated."

Her eyes lock on mine and she drags her bottom lip in between her teeth, but lets go when I use my thumb to pull it out. A habit that was slowly seeping back in. "Talk to me."

*If something happens..."

"It won't."

"Dane, if something happens to...

*Stop."
