The Alpha’s Contract

Chapter 0392

Blair

Sammie moves around her cell. Her fingers feel every nook and cranny as she searches. I sit and watch. Maybe it's because she didn't know Dane, or know the power he held over Wolves, but I knew he would make sure that every possible escape attempt would have been fixed, especially after Jenson told me how Salem had escaped.

"There must be something." She murmurs, to herself I think as she doesn't even look at me for an answer. She had muttered the same four words numerous times over the last few hours.

"Let's say you find a way out. Do you think you are going to make it anywhere without being caught?"

She stops and her hands fall down to her sides. Slowly her face became level with mine, though the dim light made it impossible for me to see her eyes.

“We are not that far from the forest. I looked when that guy brought me back here. There were no guards."

I found that hard to believe. Maybe she just hadn't seen them. Maybe she had been to busy yelling at Damien.

"Sammie, just stop, you will make this worse for us."

"It can't get much worse."

"Will you be saying that when they send us out into the forest?"

"What is that supposed to mean?" She snaps

"I've been threatened with a hunt. That means you will be sentenced to that as well." I frown

"A hunt?" she snorts and goes back to searching her cell.

"My mate... ex mate, told me that for serious punishments, Dane has his wolves hunt the person or people. They rip them to shreds while they are still breathing."

"They act like Rogues?"

She had never really mentioned Rogues before and I hadn't told her about that part of my life.

"Pretty much. I don't know if they are eaten, Jenson never did give me that answer."

"I don't buy it. It's probably just some scare tactic." She shrugs her shoulders.

"I'm not so sure." I mutter, breaking off a tiny bit of my protein bar when her back is turned and popping it into my mouth. It was vile, but I'm so hungry.

"And even if it is true. He wouldn't do that to us, we are basically Human, we wouldn't stand a chance." Sammie tells me.

"I don't think he cares about that." I watch her press on the cell bars and she suddenly stops to look at me. "Have you got food?"

"No." I lie. A part of me feels so guilty for lying, but she is doing the exact same thing to me, just not about food.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

"You're lying." She snarls, "Come on, give me a bit."

"I'm not lying Sammie!" I sit in the furthest corner of my cell. She must have scented the protein bar. If she was Human, there would be no way she could smell it. But I don't ask I her. I wanted her to tell me things accidentally. It has always been a good way to catch people out.

Sammie shakes the cell bars, like she was expecting them to just pop open. They should be worried about Cooper, not us." She mutters as she tries different bars.

"Do you think he will come for Neah?"

"Probably. I mean, taking away the female Alpha's powers, now that would be an achievement."

An achievement? It was a weird way

to describe it. If she was supportive of Neah, I would expect her to say something along the lines of hope not, not call it an achievement.

"By the looks of it, he will have a battle on his hands." I sigh, "There are a lot of Wolves and Lycans here."

"There really are. How many do you think?"

I shrug my shoulders. "Dane's pack is large regardless of the Lycans. And Neah called on everyone. I wouldn't have a clue about how many responded."

I see her nod her head. "A few hundred?"

"I don't know."

"Well how many did you see?"

"I don't know. I wasn't paying attention, I was just hoping that I wasn't going to die anytime soon."
