The Alpha’s Contract

Chapter 0431

Klaus

"And he said nothing else?" Cooper asks

"No. Just to be there at six tomorrow morning or your sister dies. He is waiting for confirmation."

He paces back and forth. "I'm impressed, Klaus. You woke me up to tell me that. You could have just not bothered and let him kill Sam."C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

"He asked me to tell you. He is my Alpha and that is what I did."

"Right, but he wouldn't have known if you had kept that a secret. As your mate, I think you are trying to make me happy buy telling me the truth. You know I want Sam back by my side." He winks at me. "But the question is, what does your Alpha want in retum? I assume you, because you are an important asset to him. Hmm" He runs a hand through his short blonde hair. "I've never had to contemplate who is more important to me before. My sister or my mate? Thais is difficult."

"I am not your mate. I have already told you what my birth name is."

"But Klaus, you lie. It's not good to lie." He checks the chains binding my wrists. "Tell your Alpha that I will be there."

"He won't give you Sam if I'm not there with you."

"Yes he will." He states confidently. His eyes are shining bright. "If he knows what's good for him."

"You don't know Dane like I do. He will take one look and see that I'm not present and he will rip her apart. Trust me, I have seen it done."

"Then he would be in for a world of pain. You may not think it, but I love my sister even though she is hard work. I will do everything I can in my power to make sure she lives."

"You have not done anything while she sits in a dungeon." I mutter in frustration. He had given me barely anything and had kept information coded and going around in circles.

He squats down in front of me and leans in close until his stale breath hits my face. He really needed to brush his teeth. "But she is safe there. Everyone else is safe while she is in there. It will be a bloodbath if she gets out." He rises up. "Tell your Alpha that we will be there. I will decide when everything is out in the open."

I link Dane and confirm that we will be there.

"You keep saying that she is safe in the dungeon. What does that mean? Why are you not in a hurry to get her out? Why a bloodbath. You think she is capable of killing everyone?"

"I don't need to be in a hurry when I know where she is." He didn't expand any further and it was an odd comment. I didn't buy it. I needed to know why Samara was safer inside the dungeon and why everyone else is too.

"She's a Lycan, you have already confirmed that. She confirmed that."

"Yes."

"Is she some kind of weapon?"

He smiles at me. "You don't need to be concerned Klaus. I can keep you safe. She won't be able to hurt you. She won't be allowed to."

Allowed? He obviously thought he was poerful enough to stop her.

"Are you afraid of her? Is that why you wanted to block her abilities? You kept saying it was because she was touching your stuff. I do not believe that. I think you are hiding something from me."

"So curious, all will be revealed in good time. You should get some sleep, it seems that we have an early start tomorrow."

"I can't sleep when you talk in code. Is my pack in danger?"

"I haven't decided."

"Is it really for you to decide if you said Samara is capable of turning everything into a bloodbath?"

He smiles at me and with the wide sage green eyes, it makes him look even more unhinged. Why the hell would the Moon Goddess think he is a good match for me?

"Who are you after?" I push, but he doesn't answer me. "I could just tell Dane to kill her!"

He roughly grabs my face, lifting me inches off the floor, with more strength than I expected. "You will do no such thing. Do you understand!"

He drops me with a thud and strides out of the room. When he returns, he is carrying a syringe. "Better yet, let's make it so you can't!"

Cooper stabs me in the neck before I even have a chance to say or do anything. Instantly, I feel myself getting weaker and weaker, and my senses fade until they are barely present. I try to link Dane but there is nothing again.

"Another reason why I am grateful not to be your mate!" I spit at him, I am met with a quick and painful slap across the face. It bums and I knew he had probably left a clean red handprint on my face. One that wouldn't heal for a few days.
