The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

Chapter 0134

“What did you do to her?” Jenson asks. I hadn't even noticed he had woken and wondered how much he had heard

“She begged me. Tried to tell me that the people upstairs were lying to me. Told me it was her home. That her parents had owned the house. It’s only when I look back, that I realise I didn’t see how ill she looked or how thin she was. I didn't see the dark shadows under her eyes. All I saw was a ‘liar’ that Cassandra had described. And I believed her’

Mallory drops her head forward. “She didn’t even try to fight back. She was too weak.”

It is horrible, listening to what she is telling me. It also showed how much Neah hadn't told me about her past. Or maybe it was one of those things that she had learned to block out.

“Even now, I hear the cracks of her skull from when I beat her against the wall.” “You shifted?” Jenson asks,

“No.” She shakes her head, “I was just an angry person and suddenly had the strength of a Lycan.” Her eyes settle on me again. "Is she really alive? You are not just lying to get me to talk to you?”

“She's alive.”

“But how? She shoula't have survived that.”

“Because the Moon Goddess wants her to live.” I mumble

"How did you know she was an Alpha?" Jenson asks

"I overheard them talking. I never knew what the term Alpha was. Not until I broke free. Not until I met others." “Cassandra kicked you out after?” Jenson presses

“No. I was so disgusted with myself, I ran. I ran and didn’t stop until I could no longer hear Cassandra and her demands rattling around inside my head.”

“What about the others?” Jenson asks. I knew he didn’t believe her story. “If you were the first one, how are there others here, in this area?” “We found each other. Or rather, they found me.”
