The Alpha’s Contract

Chapter 0073

Neah “Dead?” I mutter

“From what I understand, that side of you shouldn’t be able to handle the bindings.” Klaus mutters, rubbing his chin. He looks at Alpha Dane. “We know bindings is one of the worst things that can be done to a Wolf, trapping their other half. It's the worst punishment out there and I should know. I'm living proof. But according to these tales, she shouldn't be able to survive it.”

“Well clearly she is here.” Beta Eric snaps. “And she is healthier now than the day we brought her home.” “Maybe she wasn't bound properly?” Klaus suggests with a shrug of his shoulders.

"You think it's possible that the Witches who bound her, didn't do it right, four times?" Beta Eric questions "It's a possibility.”

Alpha Dane frowns but not once does he look at me. Maybe he didn’t want to observe the panic that was written on my face. I wanted him to say something. To acknowledge what Klaus is saying. Or maybe now, he was finally realising that I wasn’t good enough to be his mate.

“Or marking her saved her.” Beta Eric mumbles. “Maybe.” Klaus mutters.

I look up at Alpha Dane who was reading the book Klaus had given him. His fingers follow the words as his eyes race back and forth. Soaking in everything that was written on that page

“Alpha Dane?” I whisper. He doesn’t respond and suddenly slams the book closed.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

“This isn’t helpful now.” He shoves it back at Klaus, “She can’t be the only one. And why didn't you tell me you found this information on Lycan's or whatever they are called?”

“These are old books, Dane. I thought they were likely just stories, myths even. I didn’t think that I would meet a living one. I've been here for twelve years and something like this has never even crossed our paths. How was I to know it would become relevant?”

“You weren't.” Beta Eric steps in before Alpha Dane speaks

“Am I....Am I going to die?”

All three of them look at me. Yet no one answersme. Tears prick at my eyes and-Kquickly blink them back-~ Years, I had spent thinking that. > deathwould be a better optionover my shitty life as a slave, that.was before Alpha Dane came along.

“Preferably not.” Alpha Dane gives me a tight lipped smile, one that didn’t meet his eyes. Was he already expecting the worst?

“I need... I Reed some air.” I mutter, turning away from the men and — makinginy way outside. None of them stop me, like all three of them were'Suddenly waiting for my impending death. Content.belongs to“NovelDrama.Org -

Leaning against the wall, I concentrate on my racing heart, encouraging it to slow, just for a moment. Hurrying across the grounds, people ignore me and I was grateful. No one wanted to talk to me, not until I reached the back door of the house. “Finally, just you and me.” My eyes lock with strange grey ones. “I assume you know who I am?” She spits ‘er... Veronica. "V...V...Veronica.” She laughs at my stutter. "Do you always do that? You sound like a child?” I keep my mouth shut. I couldn't help the stutter, it happened when I was nervous. It didn't help that she reminded me of Cassandra. “How the hell are you his mate?” She places her hands on her hips and I decide it's better not to talk. “Cat got your tongue?” She mocks. “So tell me, what is a Lycan? The others are saying you become part Wolf, is that true?” ‘I don't....don’t know."

“You don’t know! What, have you never shifted?”

When I don't answer, she laughs. “You won't last long here. Dane will see whata mistake you are and he will kithyou, just like he did with the othets, Only I get to survive. Only deserve to be by his side.” Content bélongs to NovelDrama.Org ~
