The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 261

Dane

Grabbing some water, I throw it on his body. Jenson groans but doesn’t move.

“Get the fuck up.” I demand.

More groans, and there is a tiny bit of movement. He raises his hand and gives me the middle finger. for the water or my presence, I didn't know.

“What the fuck do you mean she is coming?” I snap. My temper was hanging on by a very thin thread.

“She’s coming for me.” He croaks

“Is that what you want?”

He doesn’t answer me.

Silent treatment I was used to from my sister. But not Jenson. He wouldn’t know what silence means if it bit him on the ball bag.

Even interrogating him. He may not have given us any information about them, but it didn’t stop him making every shit remark possible.

His eyes open and he stares at me from the ground. “I…fucked up, Dane.” He mutters breathlessly. His breaths sound hollow and raspy, I had a feeling it wasn’t just his wolf he was killing.

Our wolves are part of us. Created from the Alpha blood that lives in our body. To try and kill Aspen’s spirit would be like trying to kill himself.

“What does she want?”

His gaunt face stares back at me. Raven was right, I had been too caught up in punishing him to see how ill he looked. Like he had one foot through deaths door.

“I can help you Jenson, you just need to give me the information I need.”

He rolls onto his back, his eyes fixate on the ceiling as he presses a hand to his chest. “It’s weak. Aspen is gone.”

His chest doesn’t rise much when he tries to take a deep breath. And he ends up coughing on it.

“Neah.” He splutters

“I know, but what does she want from Neah?”

He rolls his face towards me. “Everything. Her life….her power… her family.”

His lips still and his chest stops rising and falling.

I am not letting this happen. Quickly opening his cell, I link Raven to come as I slam my fist down over his heart. I hear his ribs crack, but I don’t care about that.

Pressing my ear to his chest, I hear nothing and start compressions.

Raven and Damien crash through the door just as Jensons heart begins to beat again. But it is still weak, still barely hanging on.
