The Alpha’s Contract

The office door is suddenly thrown back on its hinges as Jenson barrels in. He doesn’t even acknowledge me and leans on the desk. The men stare at each other and I knew instantly the conversation was being held through mind link. That is not a good sign Alpha Danes' eyes momentarily flicker to me. It was quick, and if I hadn't been paying attention, I wouldn't have seen it. “What's wrong?” I mumble, half wondering if I actually wanted to know.

Jenson turns around to look at me. “The Lycan that has just been taken down asked to see you.”

"M....me?"

‘Stop panicking!’ Nyx snaps. * Ask him why?’

“Why... why did he want to see me?

“That's a good question. And it isn't a he.

‘It's... it's only ever been men that have turned up. Was she bitten?”

He nods his head. "I think it will be a good idea for you to talk to her.”

“She's alive?” I splutter in shock. They hadn’t even hesitated to kill any of the others, why didn’t they kill this one?

Alpha Dane moves around his desk. “Neah, she’s a kid. There are certain lines I won't cross’

“A kid?

“Fifteen to be precise.” Jenson sighs. “She is saying that she was dropped off by a blonde woman. Told to walk through the forest and to not turn back. And to ask for someone called Neah.

“Cassandra?”

“She didn't give a name, but yes, likely. She is very emotional. She is tired. She wants to go home to her parents. She is very confused.

She’s a kid, Neah, we can’t ignore her.’ Nyx murmursNôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“Where is she?” Tears are brimming in my eyes and I have no idea why. I didn't know her and yet I felt so sad for her, she was turned because of me “With Eric.” Jenson tells me

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Alpha Dane eyes me carefully.

I nod my head while sucking my bottom lip between my teeth.

Jenson leads us across the grounds towards Beta Eric’s house.

“He took her to his home?"

“Smaller place to keep an eye on her.” Jenson mutters

Beta Eric opens the door to the three of us, just like everyone else, he looked exhausted. “She's cried herself to sleep.”

He gestures for us to come in. A young redhead is laid on the sofa, curled up in a small ball, much like how I used to sleep back at Moonshine.

“Has she said anything?” Alpha Dane asks

"Her name is Jessica. The last thing she remembers I is going shopping with her fiends before she woke up> in the catof some ‘hoity toity’ = woman. ). Then the tears started. agaitand about five minutes-ago, shecrashed out.” Content. bélongs

‘Why would they turn a kid?’ Nyx asks. “This is low.” Beta Eric murmurs as he drapes a blanket over the redhead

“We all know that they don’t care how low they stoop.” Jenson mutters

We let her have-a good thirty minutes to Aap before Beta Eric wakes her. The tears flow the = <> momentshe sees all of us staring” at her. Ashe sits up and brushes-her shoulder length hair behind ter ears. S& the bite mark on her neck. .

“Jessica?” I ask softly. I knew what it was like to be surrounded by these men, to feel way out of your safety zone “Jess.” She whispers and her soft blue eyes dart around the room “Jess, I'm Neah."

“What's wrong with me? I'm.... I'm hot....1 feel sick I want my mum. I promised her I would be home for dinner.” Big fat tears roll down her face which she quickly brushes away.

She doesn't know.’ Nyx mutters. ‘ She doesn’t know what's been done to her.” “Can someone take me home?” She continues to weep.

“Unfortunately not.” Beta Eric mutters. “It's not safe for you at the moment.”

She lets out a little whimper as Alpha Dane gestures for me to follow him outside. “What do you want to do?” He asks

“Me?

He nods his head at me. “The girl has no idea what she is, or even where she is.” “Why would they do this? Why would Cassandra do this?”

“They are appealing to your heart. The men are not working, and they have just discovered that someone has found their way in.”
