Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter Forty Eight

I didn’t think sleeping would be possible, not with the news Thane had shared that the Elders were already in the pack and he would be punished by the early hours of dawn. He had told me not to worry about him; he didn’t seem unsettled in any way. To him, it was just another night, but I, on the other hand, couldn’t sleep. Also, why would Freya warn me about falling in love with Thane? He was her son; isn’t she supposed to protect him?.

I knew better than to fall in love with Thane, that was for sure, but I could not deny that he was a very alluring man, and Axel…

I felt like my life had become nothing but a mirage that could only exist in a girl’s fantasies. I wouldn’t say I was free with Thane now; knots still formed in my stomach when he was close. Axel was safe, but I had seen a new part of him; he wasn’t as innocent as I thought he was; he had some darkness too, and maybe it was worst in his case, because I never knew what to expect from him.

“Riley“, Thane called and that startled me out of my thoughts. I should be sleeping; maybe I could just pretend like I was sleeping, and so I didn’t respond, trying to calm my nerves and pretend.

“I know you are not sleeping; I can tell,” he says, and I gave up.

“How do you expect me to sleep? I’m sorry, but there is just so much on my mind, I can’t sleep.”

“Riley, the last thing you should do is worry about me.‘

“Why? Because you are this strong, unbreakable person who can’t feel a thing?” I asked, cocking my brow, even if I knew he wasn’t going to see that.

“It is amusing that you worry about a man who is not your mate and would probably forge. about you when the contract is over,” he says, and a lump forms in my throat. Dick. But he was right.

“I don’t care what happens to you,” I lied. “But I caused this, and so it is my fault. I worry even you are a complete…” Dick. I didn’t add the last part, knowing it might result in some kind of punishment. He got the info, though.
