Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter Twenty Nine
"I won't bind your hands this time, but you have to stay still," he says, and I could only manage to respond with a nod.He kissed my lips; this time it was soft, his palm was very low down my abdomen, and a slight movement caused the heat to build up. I let out a small moan, which was silenced by his kiss.Noticing that, he adjusted, his palm no longer having physical contact with my skin.He kissed down my jaw and then my ears, nibbling gently on my ears, and then he kissed me down my collar bones. His lips against my bare skin caused a strange kind of spark, dampening my core.His palm massaged my breasts, and I let out another moan as he sucked at my very sensitive nipple, his canine grazing into it only slightly. He repeated this action to the other, and I had already begun writhing under him, in need of more friction between our lower parts; he wouldn't give that just yet. His kisses trailed lower, between my breasts and my abdomen. I froze."What are you doing?" I questioned, t

I woke up with a smile on my face. I didn’t know how long I had slept, but I hadn’t felt this rested since I came here. I was alone on the bed; it’s not like I expected him to stay.I couldn’t help but remember everything that had happened last night, and my lower part felt kind of numb. I tried standing up.That was a big mistake. I lay back down.“You shouldn’t try that." The voice called. I hadn’t noticed Axel on the cushion.“How long have you been here?”“A couple of hours,” he says, and I didn’t miss the fact that I was naked, with a lot of evidence of what I had just done with Thane. “You look totally fucked,” he commented with a smirk, and I turned red. He did have a hidden ability to embarrass me.I pulled up the covers in an attempt to cover my nudity.“I'm not trying to humiliate you, Riley, but there’s literally no part of you I haven’t seen yet.”“I think you and Thane are freaks,” I say, and I do mean it, but I abandoned the covers. He was right, though. “Where is he?”“

Thane returned late. He paused at the door, his eyes trailing down me.“You are hurt, aren’t you?” he questioned"No,” I lied, but one look at him told me he saw through that, “yes,” I admitted.“I’m sorry,” he apologized, but there was no promise that he would go gentle next time. He had warned me, just so I could prepare myself. Yes, it was more than I could ever prepare for, but at least I knew what I was getting myself into.“I liked it a lot,” I say to him, and his eyes brighten up.“You did?”“Yes, I thought you could tell.”“You are a mystery, Riley,” he says, and I couldn’t agree to that; he was the mysterious one, and I, on the other hand, was nothing but an open book. .“Axel did take good care of me,” I said, gorging his expression.There was nothing but a smirk on his face. “Of course he did,” and that confirmed a lot.Thane was in his briefs now, and I couldn’t help but marvel at his size. I looked away quickly; I couldn’t bear any more awkwardness.“You could look as lo

I had wanted Axel there with me, and it was strange that I'd seek comfort from a man I had only met, just to face my own mother. I walked into her room, and she shut the door.I gasped. The room was beautiful. It was almost as wide as our own room."Beautiful, isn’t it?” She asked, pouring a glass of juice into two glass cups. She passed me one.“Thank you, and yes, this is a lovely space.”“You know what I hear? This was one of the previous Luna’s rooms. And my pay is way more than a person even in my position should earn.”“I am happy to see you are being treated well." I said genuinely.My mother scoffed. “I think it’s weird, all the things he does... Alpha Thane would never do anything if he wasn’t getting something in return.”“So what are you trying to say, mother? You are the mother to the Luna of this pack; how is this questionable?”“I know you more than you think, daughter. He wouldn’t have taken you if he didn’t have something to get in exchange.”“Because I am weak? Becaus

"I think we should talk somewhere more private; what do you say?""I am quite in a hurry at the moment," I replied."Where are you heading to? Maybe I could walk with you," she asks, a small smile on her lips. She hadn’t been rude and maybe we both could play whatever game this was."I was heading for my mate's room.""Is that so?, Strange that you are going in the opposite direction.""The pack house could get confusing at times.""So you are lost?" she questioned."I'll admit it, I am lost," I said with a shrug, trying to act unbothered by the fact that I was alone here with this Beatrix. I had seen her fight; she was good; there was no doubt she could take me down easily. Being alone with her was dangerous, but letting her know I was lost was even more dangerous."Let's make a deal, Luna. I'll help you on your way back if you could only give me a few minutes of your time.""And if I refuse?" I ask with a cocked eyebrow. I had to look calm and settled, and I really hoped it worked.

I didn’t think she was leading me the right way. But I didn’t let her know that. I tried keeping track of every route we followed, but there were just too many turns.“Riley”. I turned to see Axel. I couldn’t deny the relief I felt the moment I saw him. “I told you to stay there; where did you go...” His words trailed off as he only seemed to notice Beatrix at my side, and he gave me a questioning look.“Beta. Not to worry, she is safe with me; we were only having a little chat, and I was going to escort her back to her room; she’s not very familiar with this place yet.”“Thank you, but I will be taking over now,” Axel said, taking my arms and leading me away.Beatrix had actually been leading me the right way.When we were a good distance away, Axel stopped.“What?”“I told you to wait there. Why didn’t you” Axel questioned“I got overwhelmed; I’m sorry.”“No, don’t be. I had been worried.”“Why? Wait, did you think I was going to run away?”“I thought of that, but of course, you wou

“Does whatever you have to tell me endanger you?”I thought about it. “Not really, why?”“Then I can promise you, Thane wouldn’t know.”“Beatrix suspects something.”"Well, she’s a fool; nothing to bother about,” Axel said. He didn’t seem to like her very much, and that brought a smile to my lips.“This is something to bother about. She had seen me when we both visited the training grounds. And she had pointed out the fact that I had no visible marks due to the...” I trailed off, but Axel understood where I was heading. “She has these theories; she thinks this might be a mistake, and I hadn’t actually been mated to Thane, or there is some kind of agreement, she also suspects that I blackmailed him into this.”“Blackmail?” Axel scoffed. “You don’t have to worry. I bet she is hoping this is an agreement too.”.There was a knock on the door.“I’m not expecting anyone,” I said to Axel.“That must be the maid. It’s lunch time.....Thane should be back by now, and I was getting worried. A

No matter how I struggled, I couldn't win and I knew it, I just couldn’t outsmart ten of them.“Help!, somebody help!..” I screamed out of desperation, hoping someone would hear me.I felt a hand around my mouth, muffling my screams. "You speak again, and I promise you that will be the last time you ever speak," the man with his hands around my mouth warned. I also noticed the wickedly sharp dagger in his hands. I felt the panic rising. Could this be my end?He slowly withdrew his hand from my mouth and took off his hood. I didn't know many people here, but I recognized him almost instantly. He was one of the men Beatrix had fought on the training grounds."She's supposed to be an omega," the man said to the other cloaked figure standing to the side, the only one who hadn't bothered holding me down or participating in this."She had been marked by him; that should be the reason," he says, and I did not understand a single word of what they were saying. All I could think about was how

I sat in front of Thane's door the whole night, pleading and begging, but he never did come, and finally I rose.I had lost him, and it took me this long to see that. I hadn't only lost Axel; I had lost Thane's love too.How did my life turn into this? One moment it all felt like a fairy tale, one I didn't want to wake up from, and now it was a complete nightmare.Some days I questioned the point of my own existence; I had no use remaining here, and yet, I didn't want to leave, maybe because I still had hope that one day Thane would forgive me.I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling, ignoring the knock on the door. I didn't want to see anyone right now, and I knew for a fact that it wasn't Thane. Whoever was behind the door persisted and it got annoying. I rose from the bead, heading for the door. I pulled it open, the frown on my face that disappeared the moment I saw my mother.She hugged me, knowing exactly what I needed. I couldn't help but be a child again and cry in her arms. "

I stared at the mirror; I looked like a mess. I sprayed some cold water on my face; a knock drew my attention.It was a maid."Can I help you?" I questioned."The Alpha sent me to pick up a file he left here. It must be that one." She said, pointing to the file on the table. She walked in, picking it up."You know what? I'll hand it to him." I said, taking the file from her hand. She seemed unsure."As you wish Luna," she said."Uhmm, where is he now?""The third room on the fifth floor," she said, and I nodded."Got it.".I knocked on the door to his ‘new’ room, and after a minute the door was pulled opened. Thane stared at me."What are you doing here?" He asked like I was some complete stranger, an intruder, but I couldn't blame him."I brought your files."He collected it, about to slam the door, but I placed a foot in the threshold. I pushed the door open and walked in."You've been avoiding me lately." I said to him, but he gave no response. He took a seat, opening the file and

The next few days I spent them with Thane; he was still in coma. The healers had to extract all of the toxin the elders had passed into his bloodstream; only then would the healing process begin, and from their report, he was doing well, but he still had a few more days to recover.I wiped his face with a wet towel; next, I gently brushed through his hair. I placed a kiss on his forehead and then his lips. I knew that when he awoke, things wouldn't be like they used to. I returned back to my room to take a bath before joining him once again.I couldn't bear the solitude of my room; I always ended up breaking into tears. I hadn't realized I was sleeping until the sharp intake of breathe jolted me awake. Thane was awake.The healers had said he would be down for a few more days, but he woke earlier than they had predicted; my heart pounded for the first time in excitement; I was so scared, I couldn't lose him too. "Thane!" I cried out, running to him to embrace him, but his cold star

A rock fell inches away from me, and I only managed to dodge it. Axel was losing a lot of blood. I knew what was about to happen, but I didn't want to think about it. It just couldn't."Riley, please listen to me." he said, and I turned to him; sweat coated his face and his breathing was laboured. "I can't make it, Riley. You know that, but if you go, you can save yourself and save Thane.""Please, Axel, we can make it alive, the both of us.""Look at me, Riley," he pleaded, and I did. "Kiss me."Tears rolled down my eyes as I leaned to him and kissed him. I wouldn't let him go; I just can't. "I love you, from the very first time I met..." he took a long breath. "But you were never mine, and yet that didn't stop me from wanting you. Don't blame yourself for this; you, Riley, were the best thing that had ever happened to me.""But Thane... he hates me.""No, he doesn't; reason with him; make him... make him understand." Axel coughed out blood. "Go now, get him, and leave this place.""

EARLIERBailey was still in here somewhere. I walked cautiously down the passage ways and I spotted yet another room. I pushed open the door and walked in. The room was similar to the one I had been kept in earlier, but she wasn't in here either.I needed a weapon; the sword alone wouldn't do to kill an elder as powerful as she was so I searched through the room. I pulled open a cabinet, and there I found more syringes filled with black serum, the very same ones used on Thane. I was almost certain of it. I would have to take a gamble with this. From what Bailey told me, this was created by the elders as a bane for Lycans, I could only hope it had some effect on her too, if it didn't work on her, then I was doomed.I strode out of the room, and there she was, standing at the very end of the passageway."So you've come to kill me." Bailey said with a smile on her face. "You know, Nyaos has been killed by your mate" She said to me.I couldn't exactly say I felt bad for that.I chose to r

THANE'S POVThe door opened, and Caleb walked in, his hands up as if in surrender. My beta, Axel followed, a gun pointed to his head."Free him," Axel said.Caleb walked to me, taking out the pipes. "The chains too." Axel said, and I could tell Caleb was not going to do that.Axel shot at his leg, but Caleb was strong—maybe even the strongest of all the elders. In the next second, Axel's gun was in his hands, and the table turned."Let him go, Caleb; it's me you want." I warned."You are right." Caleb says, "But I want him dead too."He shot at Axel. I growled, pulling at the chains; they burned my skin. He aimed for me next, pulling the trigger, but the gun was empty of bullets, and he tossed it to the ground."In every single room, I had planted a bomb; all I need to do is press the button, and everything would go 'boom'; everyone in this building would die, and I alone would be left. After a while, you will be forgotten, but for me, I'll take over from you; I will be known and fea

Axel unsheathed his sword before striding towards Nick.Nick let out his wing, flying right over us, but Axel leaped into the air, bringing him down by his wing. Axel pinned Nick down, holding both wings. I watched in amazement as Axel sliced them off, and Nick roared in pain, the bones where his wings had been attached prodded out of his back.Axel passed the blood stained sword to me. I limped to where Nick lay groaning in agony."Didn't I tell you, I will kill you?" Now kneel." I said, and he rose, falling on his knees. "Riley I..."I didn't let him say more; in a clean swipe, I incapacitated his head from the rest of his body.Axel took off his leather jacket and helped me put it on."I know a way out." Axel says, leading me out of the room, we walked down the hallways to an open space."Going somewhere?" A voice called from behind us. Bailey.She held a crossbow in her hands. "Nyaos is dead. Thane killed him. I guess this means our deal is… off."She shot the crossbow at me, bu

RILEY"It's girls time, Nick; you should leave." Bailey said to him, and he gave me a long look before leaving both of us alone. "I didn't remember telling you to stop with the dagger," she said."It fell." I lied.I didn't know if she bought that, but she spoke no more about it, taking a seat beside me."I'm going to tell you a story, one I had never told anyone before. Well, you would die in the end, so it makes no difference.I was in love once. I don't mean the casual crushes and those little feelings girls have. I was in love with Nyaos; he had always been there for me when I needed him; he helped me so many times; I can't even count the number of times he had saved my life. But Nyaos loved another; I was the ‘other woman’, and I knew that. Katara believed we were good friends; she trusted me; she trusted the both of us, and I knew what we did behind her back was very wrong, but I couldn't help myself. Nyaos said he loved us both, and though I always wanted more, I could settle

CAUTION: THERE WOULD BE VIOLENT SCENES IN THE FOLLOWING CHAPTERS; PLEASE READ WITH CAUTION.THANE.I could do it; I knew I could break through the chains. Rage is one powerful thing. I pulled hard, and the chains broke off. I ripped out the pipes that had been used to pass the fluids into my bloodstream, and I staggered to my feet. I heard footsteps approaching, and I positioned myself beside the door. Nyaos walked in; he noticed the empty chair, I could smell his fear; he should be afraid. I shut the door behind him, and only then did he notice me; he turned, his eyes widening in terror as I plunged my hand into his chest, past the crunch of his ribcage, and deep into his heart. His mouth opened, frozen in a silent scream."The cursed weapon isn't the only way to kill an elder." I whispered before I pulled his heart out. The sight of blood was so intoxicating it ignited a lust for blood in me, I wanted to spill more blood. An elder had been brought to nothing in a matter of minutes
