The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

Chapter 0471

Cooper mutters words under his breath in a different language but it doesn't seem to do anything. With one final blow, Samara knocks him out cold.

Her Lycan is strong, even after all the time she has spent in the dungeon.

Splatters of blood litter the carpet around Cooper as Samara gets to her feet, almost hitting her head on the ceiling. This wasn't how it was supposed to go. Samara wasn't supposed to attack him, but we could use this to our advantage and take him back to Neah.

Slowly, Samara's eyes lighten until they are back to their usual grey tone. "Blair probably still has clothes

upstairs." I tell her. She nods at me and hurries out of the room. Her footsteps heavy as they make their way up the stairs.

Looking for the chains Cooper had bound me with, I find some syringes in a drawer. Full with a thick yellow liquid. Without missing a beat, I take one and stab an unconscious Cooper in the neck.

His scent disappears in seconds and my heart finally stops pounding.

"Klaus?" Samara is quiet as she peeks around the kitchen door.

"He's alive. You didn't kill him." I confirm. "And I have drugged him. He won't be able to fight us or Neah now."

She bobs her head. "There's something else." She looks behind her and slowly moves forward until I can see all of her. She wasn't alone. Samara steps to one side. Another woman is standing behind her. Long obsidian hair hangs around her face and probably doesn't finish much before her navel.

She has a very faint scent, like one that is trying to break through. Though it is so weak that it explains why I hadn't even noticed she was in the house. Rope burns mark her wrists and ankles. Her trainers are scuffed and she needed a goos scrub.
