The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

Chapter 0176

Neah

I sit hunched over with my forehead on the cool wooden desk as Dane, Eric and Klaus try to come up with a plan. But every scenario was a waste of time. Salem was smart. He had outsmarted Raven, Jess, even his own brother.

Turning my head to one side, I glance at Mallory whe is asleep on the sofa. Klaus had said it was unfair for her to be alone while in recovery and my mate had agreed for him to bring her to the office

Her eyes are closed and her arm dangles over the side of the sofa, but I had a sneaking suspicion that she wasn’t really asleep. That she just wanted to hear what was being said.

We should say something?’ Nyx mutters Not yet.” I reply. I still didn’t trust Mallory. I may have helped save her life, but that didn’t mean she was trustworthy.

Everything surrounding her seemed too good to be true. The others didn’t see it yet and constantly reminded me that she was trying, but they will see what I see, it’s just a matter of time.

Damien had told me more about his past then what she had. All she kept harping on about was what she had done to me and that made me suspicious.

I see her eyelashes move, but all she does is roll over, so that her face is towards the back of the sofa. I won't be able to know for certain if she is faking sleep.

“Are you okay?” Dane moves around the desk to me, partially blocking my view of Mallory.

“Tired.” I mutter. It wasn’t a lie. The movement of the twins inside me had been non stop all night. I had barely slept a wink. “Do you want to lie down?"

I see Mallory tense. waiting for my answer, “No.”

He leans down and kisses my cheek when there is a knock at the door, dragging my eyes away from Mallory.
