The Alpha’s Contract

*Somewhere neutral." Dane mutters. "The city."

"You think he won't do anything because there are Humans?" I shake my head

*He will cause more problems for himself." Dane smirks at me.

'It's a good option. Thalia will be able to get out unseen and even if she is seen, it will be too late for Serkan to do anything. He will be after his number one priority.' Lyall tells me

"Your choice." Neah mutters

"Okay." I agree. "When?"

"A few more questions first." Neah states, "If that's okay."

I nod in agreement. I will answer everything and anything she throws at me if it means I can save my family.

*So you rescued Cooper's prisoners and many of them joined White Cliffs." She confirms

*For rehabilitation."

"Is that the first time?" She presses.

"No."

*But Serkan was meeting with him?"

*Fucking asshole was providing Serkan with people to grow the pack." Damien sneers at me "And you didn't see it. He was just doing it in a better way than how Cassandra did it."

*Cassandra?" I mutter. I didn't know anyone by that name.

"You don't need to concern yourself with that." Dane tells me. "She's dead. Damien is just making a point."

I slouch back in the seat, staring at him. He couldn't be right, could he? How could I have missed something so blatantly obvious?

"He's right." Dane tells me. "What better way to make people feel secure. Offer them a home within the pack that supposedly saved them."

"No, because the others that I saved had no abilities. They had been stripped, they were practically...." I trail off. Every single one of them had eventually been killed for one reason or another. But the lot I saved this time, had been welcomed with open arms. They had gained their abilities back and were ready to start over. To believe in something better.

I already knew that better is currently staring at me in a much smaller than normal size.

"He's got it." Damien chirps

*Cooper was punishing them and then Serkan would invite them into his home with open arms. Making him look like a saviour. It's a good plan. But not good enough." Dane mutters as he moves behind Neah, placing his hands on her shoulders. She seems to melt under his touch as she leans her head against his hand.

"Did you know about this?" Damien mutters to Cooper's half sibling.

She shakes her head at him. "I swear. I knew he had been taking abilities from people for a long time, but I never knew what happened to them. Coop used to move me around a lot. I was at the farm for a while but before that, we never stayed in the same place for long. And after the age of sixteen, I was never allowed to stay in the same location as him. I think it was because he didn't want me to know. He knew if I figured it all out when I was younger, I would have become a much bigger problem."

"I can confirm that all the people rescued were not rescued from the same place." I mutter

She gives me a small smile. She looked so much like her mother. Serkan would have known who she was the moment he saw her.

*It's nothing to smile about." I murmur. "Serkan always knew where I needed to go. Always told me there had been reports of sightings, or stories of Wolves and Lycans that were confused. And like the idiot I am, I believed it. I don't know what is worse. Feeling like this, or having to convince my mate that the man we believed in has been using us like puppets. He offered us a superior life, but it's come at a price."
