The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 258

“Bitch!”

“So you were going to play me? Try to convince me to join your little club, is that it?.”

“Fuck off you dirty Lycan.”

“Now that is something I don’t understand.” Mallory coils her hands around the bars and stares in at him. “Because at the end of the day, you were still fucking a Lycan. Jess was a Lycan. You know, your actual mate. Did you call her dirty too? Because if I remember correctly, she was bitten, just like me!”

He doesn’t answer.

“Gotcha!” Mallory mutters. “Neah’s lookalike convinced you we are dirty because we are not pureblooded.”

“Shut up you dirty bitch!” Jenson snarls, his bones start to crack and we watch him shift into his Wolf. He paces the small cell, moving closer and closer to the bars. Mallory removes her hands milliseconds before he takes a swipe at them.

She laughs and paces just like him. Moving back and forth in front of his cell at exactly the same pace.

It was making my brother angry. He hated people mimicking him. Something that hadn’t changed.

“You’ve let her poison you, Jenson.” I mutter from the chair. “She wants something and she has made you promises that she can’t keep and probably won’t keep. Women like that don’t care about anything but themselves.”

I was running out of ideas. This was not how I thought the conversation was going to go.

‘He’s killing Aspen.’ Midnight mutters, pain etched in her voice. ‘He’s forcing the shift to break Aspen’s spirit.’

‘What? Is that even possible?’

‘It’s the final piece of him that keeps him attached to us. If he breaks Aspen, that’s it.’

“Jenson, please tell me why?” I try to hide the sadness in my voice, but you only needed to look at me to know I was feeling like I was losing him all over again.

The Wolf moves back and forth, every few seconds, he would slam his body into the bars, hoping that they would bend.

He shifts back to human form, tying his shirt around his waist to cover himself up. Every rib was showing, his collarbone jutted out and the skin looked as though it had been pulled tight and there was no room left. I’m sure if he turned I would see every bit of his spine. He was so fucking skinny and even Mallory takes a step back when she realise how ill he is.

The fitted suit had hidden it well.

“Is she starving you?” I ask in shock. Jenson was like me when it came to food. A bottomless pit.
