The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

Chapter 0380

I try looking over my shoulder at Dane. "He's bullshitting me, right. This is just some twisted mind game to get back at me before you kill me, right?"

"No."

I turn back to glare at Abraxas. "Then how were you not able to tell she was a Lycan when we first came here. I call bullshit."

"I'm still trying to figure that out. She covered her scent and somehow she concealed her true identity. But now, it's wearing off. And she is trapped in the dungeons." Brax smirks at me. "In fact I have bets that she either wants Cooper to herself or she is the one running the shit show."

I shake my head. It had to be a trap, some kind of trick. To lure me back here, but they still hadn't killed me. I knew tricks, I had operated a fair few and I promised myself that after Cooper no one else would succeed. Someone was lying and it wasn't me.

"She took me in." I whisper. "She can't be a Lycan. She told me what happened to her. She has evidence."

"Part of the trap." He shrugs his shoulders. "And you fell for it, big time."

"So what if she did. Why do you care? You could have just told me to go fuck myself."

"Because like you said, you brought her here and now she is our problem."

I sit in stunned silence, they had to be wrong. She told me how she escaped. She told me all the things that were done to her. She showed me her box of stuff, the gown, the empty drip bag. What she did to escape.
