Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter Fifty Three
I did need my mother’s visit more than I thought I did and after that, I was finally calm enough to fall into a restful sleep.I didn’t know how long I slept, but something awoke me; I felt like I wasn’t alone in the room. I snapped my eyes open to see Thane watching me, like practically sitting on a stool close to the bed and watching me like a complete creep. Thane was the last person I expected to see.My heart slammed fast against my rib cage, threatening to escape the walls.“You scared the living day light out of me, Thane,” I said. He didn’t say anything, still staring at me with those dark amber eyes. Could I still be dreaming?. I pinched myself to make sure. I did feel that. This was no dream.“I like watching you sleep,” he said, as if just realizing it. “I like so many things about you. I like when you are shy and embarrassed, but what I love most is watching you in tears. You cried for me, and it was a fucking turn-on.”“That’s very creepy Thane, even for you.” He was turn

I and Thane lay side by side on the bed in a comfortable silence.“I’m feeling very generous now. Ask me a question; you might get an answer,” he says, and I peck up. I had so many questions to ask, and he was finally giving me an opportunity. I might as well take it while it lasts.“Why did you pick me?, you would have had others easily... What is your intention, and what are you going to gain from this?”“So this was the first thing that came to your mind?. Ask any other question, but that,” he says. That wasn’t fair. But I quickly moved on, I didn’t expect an answer either.“Your parents had been present at the time you were being...” I paused; I didn’t want to say the word punished again, so I moved on, hoping Thane got the clue: “Freya did nothing. I feel like there is something you haven’t told me, something between your parents, particularly your mother and you.”Thane watched me silently. “That’s another question I can’t answer.”“Were you planning to ever answer a question?”

Thane paused. For the first time, I saw a flicker of emotion on his face.“She was dead. And in her hands, she held this paper. It was a message for me. She had explained the true reason she turned me down earlier: she hadn’t wanted me close because she knew I would be hurt in the end. She had this sickness, an issue with her blood; she said it could never be cured. I did notice how thin she got, but every time I asked, she came up with a story, maybe factoring it all to stress, and I believed her. I felt like a fool for not looking deeper. This illness had been eating her out for a while, and that was the reason she settled out alone; she didn’t want to hurt anyone. She said she had been selfish for wanting me and selfish for having me, even if she knew it would leave me broken in the end.I had been so furious at everything. At myself for not realizing it soon, at fate for pairing me with her as a mate, and at her for keeping it away from me, maybe I could have helped her if only sh
Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter Fifty Six
I could do anything just to see that other part of Thane again; the softness in his eyes had done something to me – something I couldn’t explain. But whatever I had seen two days ago was gone; now he was back to his cold self.Maybe he did regret telling me about his past, because for the past two days he had barely exchanged words with me, or maybe it was just me being paranoid and he was simply busy and stressed. His injury healed fast too, and now the marks looked weeks old, even though it had been barely two days. Axel hadn’t visited either, and I worried if something was wrong. Either way, I was not planning on remaining in our room all alone today; I was going to pay a visit to the training grounds and maybe explore a little too.I got dressed, ready to leave, when a knock on the door interrupted me. Axel?I rushed to the door and pulled it open, and my face fell visibly when I noticed who stood there. Beatrix.What the hell was she doing here? So far, I had imagined that this r

TRIGGER WARNING: CHAPTER CONTAINS EXPLICT CONTENTS!!“How long do we have to walk?” I questioned; the walk down the tunnels was almost fifteen minutes already. Where exactly was she leading me to? But I was too far into this to back out.“It usually doesn’t take this long if I am alone, but I have to match pace with you,” she says. “We are close.”Finally, we stopped before a huge door.“What is this?”“Very curious, aren’t you? You will soon find out.”She pulled the door open with some effort. And then she walked in.The room was the biggest I had seen so far, its size rivalling a hall. But that hadn’t been what appalled me.They were so many cages, as far as my eyes could see, lined horizontally and inside the cages where.... girls.“What is this?” I questioned again. It could be the dungeons – every pack had this, but I doubted it; something about this place seemed off. The girls backed away from the cage the moment we walked in, their silent cries filling the room.“The Nightshad

I had wondered why they were both absent for the past two days, if only I knew what they had been busy with.I sobbed silently. I would never survive here. Now I doubted that Thane would keep to his words of letting me go; maybe I would end up there, just like those girls.I had never felt so afraid in my life.I rolled over Beatrix’s offer in my mind; she was willing to help me escape this place, but she couldn’t help my mother. I shouldn’t leave my mother behind, but I was so afraid, I didn’t want to be here for the next minute.I jumped to my feet when someone walked in; it was Thane. I quickly wiped off my tears.“Why are you crying?”“Is nothing?” I lied, my heart pounding. Now I knew what he could do; I would never be able to sleep on the same bed with this man. Everything about him frightened me, but what was more alarming was how indifferent he was, because this was his life. Even after what he had done – what he had been doing, he could still sleep without being hunted. He wa

“Thane... I’m sorry for last night; I don’t know what exactly got over me.” I said, the lie feels bitter against my tongue. Those intense eyes on me made me feel unsettled, like he knew.“That wouldn’t stop me from punishing you if you deny me of what is mine ever again” he says and I gave a stiff nod.“Where is Axel? I hadn’t seen him in a while.”“I’ll send him in, in a few hours,” Thane replied.“Thank you”..I waited patiently for the knock, and soon it came. I let Beatrix in. Hoping Axel wouldn’t walk in on us just yet.“I will be waiting for you just as we agreed,” she said silently to me. “You just have to do your part, and I trust you know what to do.”“Yes. Yes, I do.”“Good. I’ll be ready,” she says. She left just as silently as she came in.The second knock on the door was Axel. I had anticipated that too.“You look kind of pale, everything alright?” he asked“I am fine. Just really tired of staying here all alone,” I said, avoiding his eyes.Axel wasn’t innocent either, a
Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter Sixty
Beatrix must have created some serious distraction, because so far, no one had caught up with us, and it had been about thirty minutes of running. It felt strangely too... easy, they should have gotten to us by now.“You know what?, You’ll have to ride me, Luna; that’s the only way we could go fast enough,” she said, taking her clothes off. I looked away, giving her some privacy, but she didn’t seem to care; why would she? From the little I saw, she had a perfect body, clearing trained into flawlessness. She was perfection itself. She shifted into her wolf form. She was a grey wolf, and I noticed her wolf had a very strong resemblance to her being; the grey wolf, which was smaller than Thane, and Axels’ wolf was one of the most beautiful I have ever seen, and she seemed to carry this air around her.I didn’t want to think too much about it. I picked up her clothes. Getting myself seated on her back was considerably easier than it had been with Axel.Before I could settle, she zipped i
