The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 291

‘See, lying.’ Nyx presses

‘If you don’t stop nagging me, I will find a way to block you!’ I snap back at my Lycan

“Can you get Dane and Abraxas?” I ask Mallory.

“Sure.”

Maddie’s eyes widen a little and her heart starts to race all over again. “Are you going to let them shoot me?”

“Just need to check something.” I offer a smile

She sits in silence, fiddling with the ends of her hair as we wait.

Dane is the first through the door, he walks around and presses his lips against my forehead. Maddies chestnut eyes follow the movement and I see a tiny hint of a smile.

“Where’s Abraxas?”

“He’s coming. He was cleaning up his mess.” Dane tells me.

Maddie shudders and combs through her hair with her fingers. “He really is dead?”

“Yes. Are you okay?”

“It hurts, but that’s because he marked me, right?”

I explain to Dane that this Enzo guy wasn’t actually her mate. That he was keeping her as his property. It made me so angry and I’m a little disappointed that she didn’t get to kill him. There wasn’t anything quite like watching the life drain from those you hate.

Shaking my head, I close my eyes and focus on my sons as I push the dark thoughts away when I catch the scent of Abraxas.

“Blondie and the surfer guy are keeping guard.” He mutters, but he is watching me again with an amused expression. He watched me alot.

“You mean Eric and Klaus.” Dane reminds him of their names

“Yes. They said they will let you know when more Lycans arrive.” His hazel eyes move to Maddie. “You’ve told Neah you can’t shift?”

Her head snaps back over her shoulder to glare at him. “How did you know that?”

Abraxas smiles. “I know a lot of things.” His hazel eyes move to me. “I believe you wanted to see me?”

“What else do you know?” I still wasn’t a hundred percent sure if I believed everything that he had said, but he did know an awful lot.

He casts his eyes over her, “All good.”

“What’s happening?” Maddie asks, her voice going up a notch.

“Can you shift?” I repeat, but keep my eyes on Abraxas.

“No, I swear.”
