Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter One Hundred and Forty Three

I scanned the rows of dresses–many I had never even worn. I always find myself wondering why I needed this so many.

I picked out an emerald green silk gown and decided to curl my hair to make a change.

1 was late; the party had already began in full swing; This would be the first mating ball I was witnessing in this pack, it did makes sense for the ball to take place here as this pack is one of the biggest and would contain more guests and visitors.

The mating ball brought back past memories, but I have finally moved on. I had promised myself to enjoy my time at the party.

Thane would be here anytime soon and we would go together.

Still, I had this unsettling feeling, and that might be because today marked six months since I arrived at the Nightshade Pack, so literally, today was the day my contract with Thane expired -not that we were still bound by the contract, but to think that this could have been the end…

“What?”

“I’m sorry, is there a problem?” He asked politely.

“No… no,

there is not; if you would give me a few minutes, I would go grab my purse and be right out.”

“That’s fine,” he says.
