The Alpha’s Contract

"I don't know. I can't tell anymore. They could be like me for all I know. People he has punished."

She was cooperating a little too well. She could be telling the truth or she could be buying time. What if Cooper had given her something as well so that she could mask her identity?

'Damien.' I link him. I knew he wasn't far away. 'Come and take her to the dungeons and bring me Samara.'

Damien appears and doesn't say anything. He unbinds Blair from the chair but quickly ties her hands back together.

"Where are we going? Where are you taking me?" She demands

"For a walk."

"Are you going to kill me?"

"I guess you will find out." He winks at me as he forces her from the office.

I blow out my cheeks when I'm alone. It doesn't get easier. The desire to kill her on the spot is so tempting. To cut her open and watch her intestines fall out is a picture I can't get out of my head.

'Well?' I mutter to Nyx while we wait.

'I am as unsure as you are. She is sharing, but it could be intentional. We should have kept Brax here.'

'Brax has probably gone to see Maddie.'

"Please don't...please...I've done nothing wrong." Samara's voice scratches at my ear drums as Damien tells her to be quiet.

"Just move." Damien snaps.

"I've done nothing. Why does know one believe me? I told Neah what I know. This is cruel."

He pushes the office door open and her mouth closes the moment she sees me. Her hands are bound just like Blair's, though she looked a little rougher, maybe she had been tossed around a bit.

He tries to put her in the chair but she fights back against him. Damien laughs, pressing both hands on her shoulders and forcing her down. One by one, he binds her wrists to the chair as she growls at him. Her scent was definitely making a comeback and still, there is no connection to her.

Her grey eyes lock on mine. "Why are you doing this? We haven't done anything."

"No?"

"We came here to tell you about Cooper so why are you treating us like this?"

Was she unaware that we could scent her? She had to be or she wouldn't keep up this act.

Damien rolls his eyes at her.

"What did you hope to achieve by telling me about him?"

"That you would do something about him. He can't be allowed to get away with it. We don't deserve this. We don't deserve to lose our Lycans!"

Nyx laughs, 'She really has no clue we can scent her, does she!'

'Maybe not, but if we can scent her, there is a good chance she can shift.' I reply. 'Those ropes won't keep her in that chair.'

"Blair showed you where our pack was?"

།

"Yes. She told me you are her half sister. Lcouldn't believe my luck that you are the Alpha. I've been trying to find ways to bring Cooper down for years."

"It does sound like you are lucky." The intensity of my need to kill was growing by the second.

"You were hidden for so long." She mutters, avoiding eye contact.

"I wasn't hiding."

"I didn't mean it like that." She

shakes her head, trying to get the blonde strand to move off of her face. "I mean you were hidden away for so long and then this happened to me and then I had no way of finding you, not until Blair."

"And it just so happened that Blair is my half sister." Hearing myself call Blair my half sister out loud made my insides crawl

"Right! Pure luck." She smiles

"Not a setup at all."

I watch the colour drain from her skin. "I don't know what you are talking about. How can it be a setup? Why would I give up losing my Lycan?"

'She keeps playing the same tune.' Nyx growls

Damien watches me from behind Samara. Maybe he knew I was seconds away from ripping outher we

heart. But maybe, just mound

could use her to lure out Cooper.
