The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 138

Neah

Raven convinces me to stay at the party. She somehow convinces me to sit and do nothing. To let Eric and Klaus keep an eye on Roan while I relaxed.

I couldn’t relax. In fact relaxing was the furthest thing from my mind.

“I should just kill him!” I whisper for the hundredth time. “Get it over and done with.”

'I agree!' Nyx murmurs

“Shifting is not going to help your situation. You said it yourself, you feel pain moments before your shift. And if you were a Wolf, you wouldn’t be able to shift anyway! Think of the pups.”

“I am thinking of them!” I grumble back

“I know you want him gone. And to be honest, I agree with you, but just do this for me, okay. Let the guys handle it.”

“If something happens…..”

“Nothing is going to happen! There are too many people. It would be a death sentence.”

“I don’t think Roan cares about that.”

My gut feeling told me everything I needed to know, and so did Nyx. She hated sitting here while doing nothing. She hated the waiting when she knew we could kill him in seconds and get it over with.

“Besides, what do you think his pack will do when they find out you killed him?” Raven whisper shouts at me

“I…I don’t know.”

“Precisely. We don’t need another war. At least not yet anyway.”

I look over to where they had set up the bar. Roan is sitting at the bar. Klaus and Eric are either side of him as he throws back drink after drink.

“The guy is going to be too drunk to do anything, anyway!” Raven smiles.

After a few more drinks, Roan leaves his seat. The other two stay at the bar, preventing any suspicion as Roan makes his way onto the dance floor. He stays there for all of three seconds. The moment he see’s me, he makes a very wobbly path in my direction. A huge grin plastered to his face.

“Please put me down.” I mutter, digging my nails into his arms

“Not until you tell me where your mate is.” His dark grey eyes narrow as he waits for an answer.

He leans in close, his horrible breath fans my face, “You see, I know Neah. I know my brother didn’t make it home. I know Jess didn’t make it there. So I will ask you one more time, where is your mate?”

“I have already told you, he’s doing some work in the city.” I whisper and he spins impossibly faster. His hands slide to my lower back and dig into my skin.

“Don’t lie to me Neah. I know he killed my brother. I know it’s your birthday, he wouldn’t miss that unless there was something serious happening.”

“I’m not lying.”

“Spoken like a true liar.” He murmurs and smiles . "It takes one to know one."

“Let her go, Roan.” Eric appears to one side of us, stopping Roan from spinning me any further.
