The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

Chapter 0558

"And you are lucky." She folds her arms up and sits on a rock. "Thalia comes and goes as she pleases, just like Serkan. They can cross it no problem, but anyone else." She shakes her head. "We will meet death unless we have permission. You are the first that has tried to get across and the only one that has been successful. I don't know how, but you are lucky and even luckier that I came out when I did. That river, it speeds up at night. The water becomes your enemy. Going faster and faste until it's a blur. Look if you don't believe me."

I nod my head glancing at the water, "I see that."

"Can you help us?" She asks. "Can you help us get away from this place?"

"If you tell me what this place is and how I can get in. I might consider it."

"Why would you want to get in?" She frowns in confusion. "I mean Thalia is why you are here, right? But you can just leave. Just walk away." She lowers her hood. "People don't get to leave here. Silas.... this was a chance for him, though he didn't know it and I am so happy he is alive."

"I came to get Silas's son."

Orion straightens his spine as Indy looks at him, her eyebrows knitting together. "It didn't break."

"Are you talking about her spell?" I ask

She nods her head at me. "There is no easy way to say this. Silas doesn't have a son. He never has."

I drop the shorts before I finish pulling them on. "What are you talking about?"

She closes her eyes as I roll mine and yank the shorts up.

I don't know what. I do know that he didn't return after the latest run. I heard rumours that he was going after someone special, but I didn't know who.
