The Alpha’s Contract

Neah His eyes were on my hand. Weird hollow rasps come out of him as blood trickles down the front of his top.

Very slowly he looks down. Like time had stopped to allow him to process what had happened. His hands shake as he touches his chest, he croaks and his body sways. Without a single thought, I shove him off the roof. Standing still until I hear his body hit the ground with a deafening crack

Sitting down, I pull my knees to my chest, letting the cold night air rustle through my hair. I had just killed someone.

I turn my hand over to look at it. it had partially shifted. Dried spots of blood still lingered. Running my thumb over the tips of my fingers, I feel nothing no pain, no sharp edges under my skin. The claws had disappeared as quickly as they came

I'm sorry about that, but that prick needed dealing with.’ The voice rumbles through my head, unbothered by what had happened. There was no one on the roof but me. And it certainly wasn't Alpha Dane who was speaking to me.

You are right, I am far from a man.’ I hear the amusement in her voice

Who...who are you?”

I'm Nyx, your Lycan. And it looks like we found each other at the right time.”

We don't... You are not supposed to be in my head.’Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Its funny what a little Alpha blood and a few bindings can do.’

I was annoyed, if I had a Lycan, why hadn't she shown herself. ‘Where have you been?’

I've been right here, but those fuckers had me shut down.”

It was an odd sensation, feeling her roam my mind. ‘The period?’ I whisper

Bingo!’

Stunned into silence, I keep my arms wrapped around my legs. Is this what Alpha Dane and the others feel like when their Wolf is talking? You will get used to me, Neah. My job is to keep us both alive.’

I let out a snort. I had done alright on my own until now. Sort of.

From now on.’ She adds

By the time the sun rose, my entire body was shivering. lonly had on the tee and joggers I had worn to bed. My feet were bare and even though thy body could give off aot of heat it wasn't enough to combat the sdld night air and I wouldn't let \y¥ come forward so we could climb down. I was still too afraid to become a monster. I would rather freeze to death

“

Neah? Neah are you okay?’ Alpha Dane's words race through my mind.

Looking over the edge of the roof, I could still see Devon's mangled body alongwith the people he had ~_ killed. There were no others, the x groundsswere quiet. What aboutthe kids2What about the ones who were toa.dld to take part in the patk run. Where were they? How many had Devon killed?

I'm on the roof.’ I mumble through the link “Why didn’t he feel my fear or my panic?” I ask out loud

I blocked it. It was time for you to stand on your own two feet. As much as he is hot, he can’t protect us all the time.’

“You blocked him?” I shout out in annoyance

She doesn't answer me and she doesn’t say anything else.

Alpha Dane and the others come out of the forestsThey halt when they see the dead bodies that surround ~ the packhouse. Very slowly, Alpha~ Dane'seyes search the rooftop,» looking for me. The moment te sees meshe just stares back at ie. He théught I had killed them:

I'm coming up.’ He mutters

He expertly scales the side of the house like he had done it a million times before. His feet and his fingers quickly finding ledges to hold on too. As he climbs over the top, he just watches me.

“It...it wasn't me! Well, just Devon.” I whisper. “Did you shift?”

“No. a little..... She talks so much. What about the kids and the others?"
