Contractually Yours Alpha (Riley) novel Chapter 272

Chapter Thirteen 

RILEY’S POV 

I didn’t know exactly what had gotten over me; maybe it was the pregnancy hormones, but I might have acted like a bitch to Thane; he didn’t deserve that. 

I watched him get ready for work; I knew he was still mad at me. 

“Thane, I’m sorry.” I said to him, and I meant it. 

“It’s fine.” 

“No, it’s not. I know you are mad at me, and you have every right to be” 

“Riley, you’ve made a bad decision once with Nick; he deceived you. I want to protect you from that.” 

“I won’t make the same mistake.” 

“I’ll forgive you, Riley, but please let go of this plan you have about ‘getting rid of the darkness in you.” He said to me; watching me, waiting for my response, but he wouldn’t understand; no one would. “I guess I’ve gotten my answer.” With that, he walks past me and away from the room. 

I wish he could see that I was capable of making my own decisions too. 

“He is right, you know.” said a voice from behind me, and I slowly turned around. Daemon leaned against the wall. 

“You heard it all, didn’t you?” I questioned, and he nodded. 

“I know I am not to listen into your conversations, but he is right. I think he cares for you.” Daemon said like he was just discovering that now. 

“I trust you, Daemon, and I’ve made a decision.” 

Daemon materialized right behind me, startling me. 

“Are you sure?” 

“Yes. But I don’t know how we would get there; my wings are not really functioning well right now.” 

“I told you he might not want to see you.‘ 

“He could be a coward, but I want to see him.” I said to Dameon.

“Very well. Close your eyes.‘ 

“Why?” 

“Just do it.” He says, and 1 did as he said. 

A gust of wind tousled my hair sending it every which way, I opened my eyes before he told me to and all I saw was a dark mist enveloping us, blocking out all the light. A sudden panic filled me, but it was over just as quickly, and we were no longer in my 

room. 

We stood before 

a building that was situated at an abandoned site. 

“What is this place?” I muttered silently to myself.
