All Chapters of Contractually Yours, Alpha: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

"How is that healing up?" Axel asked as he shrugged off his jacket."It's only a bruise now; that ointment must be really good," I responded.I had informed him earlier that I needed to speak to him, so I waited for him in his room. "So what do you want to talk about?" he asked radiantly. He was doing this purposely; he was acting like nothing had happened last night."I want to talk about last night.""What about last night?" he questions."You know what happened last night; why are you pretending like nothing happened?""Am I?""Yes, you are.""So, would you prefer I go announcing last night's incident to the whole pack to prove that something did happen?""No, the problem is you don't even seem worried about it."Axel turned to me. "Not everyone shows emotions like you do. I am worried about him, and I spent the whole day researching to find out what must have gone wrong with him, and I came up empty. Thane feels guilty about last night, I am supposed to help you take your mind of

I turned around, trying to trace back the route to the pack house, but we had gone so deep into the woods I would never make it. Of course he caught up with me. I couldn't fight free of his hold."Thane let me go." I begged just as I did that dreadful night. But once again he wasn't listening; his hold on me was unbreakable. I struggled, harder than ever before, but that didn't deter him; he seem to know every of my moves even before I made them. I kicked him in the groin, and that only pissed him off. He tossed me into the air like I weighed nothing, and my back slammed against the hard trunk of the tree. I dropped to the ground, a wave of pain washed through me. I rose slowly to my feet, but he was no longer in sight."Thane!" I called out, but no one answered.I called out his name over and over, trying to find him, but all I succeeded in doing was getting myself lost. I had never come this far on my own; my back hurt, and there would be more bruises on my body, but that I didn't c

Lycans.That should have been another myth, and yet I knew she was not lying.Thane was a Lycan; loving him was a risk and yet, I returned back to the room I shared with him; I needed to be reminded of his scent. Maybe I was indeed obsessed.I should stay away; all the warning signs were there; the bruise on my back proved how harmful he could be when he loses control, and yet... yet I was still craving him; yet I still craved his scent; my sole purpose of visiting our room was because I needed a reminder that the six months I spent here hadn't all been a dream.I walked into our room, and that's when I noticed something.The floor was littered with flowers—red roses—and the lights had been turned off, the room only illuminated by candles. This place felt so surreal, reminding me of the date Thane took me on—that day he had helped me switch into my wolf form for the first time.On the table was a bottle of wine and two glass cups.His scent... I could feel it, stronger now.There was

It had been so long since I spoke with my mother; the distance between the two of us—I noticed—would forever be present, and maybe a part of me was afraid.It felt like every time I went to her, she always had a secret to reveal, but some secrets are meant to be kept hidden. I had forgiven her after the promise she made to me, yet I still felt the need to keep my distance.Things were different now than they had been in the past. I hid a lot of things from her as she did from me too. With so many secrets between the two of us, our relationship could never be the same, but at least I was making an effort; I was going to visit her.My thoughts were cut off; was that a knock on the door? I listened in but heard nothing—maybe it was all in my head.Tap, tap, tap.Okay, maybe not my head; that came from the window.I walked to the window. It felt strange that someone would be out here. I pulled open the window, doubtful. I looked down, but just as I thought, there was nothing out here. I

I hated the fact that Axel simply accepted it all. It was my fault, not his, yet he still wanted to protect me."Thane I am at fault," I say to him, and that gave him a pause. "He had wanted you to know, but I didn't. I begged him not to tell you, and despite knowing I was doing the wrong thing, I forced him to do just that too.” I had never seen Thane this so angry."I'd expect him to know better.""I forced him into this; this is not his fault.""You would have been killed a few hours ago if we had a way to prevent that and didn't...""But I wasn't," I said, cutting him off."Riley, he is right; I did the wrong thing, and I do not appreciate you trying to defend me," Axel says."No. I am wrong; I am to be blamed; you keep making me feel like some kind of baby; I could be at fault too, and I am now, so if you are going to punish him for what was totally not his fault, then you would have to do the same to me too."That was it. He had been holding back the furry, and I knew it; his e
