The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 542

Brax

“Keep going.” Damien yells at me while we try to catch up with the car that had just left the station.

“My fucking foot is on the floor.” I yell back at him. “This piece of shit can’t go much faster!”

The car in front jumps the lights and I have to slam on the brakes to stop anyone colliding into the side of us.

“Fucking go!” Damien yells as the green light comes on.

I speed forward, barely missing the pedestrian running across the road as I cut another driver off. We couldn’t lose this guy.

Damien had filled me in on the plan before he received a link from Dane.

He had been telling me that we would prepare for Serkan to come here. And in the blink of an eye, everything had changed. The threat was already here and we barely had a clue of what we were dealing with.

I round the corner, lifting off on two wheels. From the corner of my eye I see Damien grab the dash. He wanted me to hurry and this was the only way.

“We can’t let him get away!”

“Don’t you think I know that!” I shout back over the screaming engine.

“I knew I should have gotten behind the wheel.”

“I’ve seen your driving, we wouldn’t even be this close.” I snap, watching the car in front drift around another bend.

We round the bend and slam on the brakes. In front of us is the car, only it’s abandoned.

“Shit!”

The car is forced into a skid. It stops inches away from the abandoned car.

“He couldn’t have gotten far!" Damien yells as he jumps out the car. He's quick to scan the area as I check out the car.

“Do you smell that?” He asks as he comes to a stop next to me.

“Of course I do. It’s what I was raised to deal with!” I snap. It was even worse than we thought. Serkan was borderline Rogue.

“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!”

I glance at Damien. This was something we agreed on.

“We can both smell him. Split up, let's see what else there is.” I mutter. “Link Dane and call the clone because the clock is ticking.” If he wanted his mate out, he had to get her to leave now.

Damien dips his chin and we move in opposite directions. The mixture of tall trees and tall buildings cast large eerie shadows across the ground. Serkan could be hiding anywhere. He could be watching and we were running out of time to find him.

I slowed my movements, listening to signs of breathing, but wherever this guy was, he was good. The scent of a Rogue was quickly fading, but not as though he was moving away. More like the scent was being sucked out of the air that surrounds us. Definitely the work of a Witch, definitely the work of Cooper. The fucker was dead and he still had a hand at play.

“Come out, come out, wherever you are!” I call out. I wanted to know exactly what we were dealing with before I put a bullet in him. Was it just him? Were there more cunts like him?

I looked over my shoulder and couldn’t see Damien. A good sign, I hope.
