The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

P2- Chapter 0010

In the kitchen, Dottie tells Dane what she told me as she waits patiently for her bowl of ice cream.

"Do you know where he is now?" Dane asks when he thinks she has finished.

She closes her eyes. Her long lashes fan out across the tops of her cheeks. "It's dark. He needs to turn on a light. I think... I think Daddy is hiding." She shakes her head and presses her hands to her temples. "It hurts." "You can see his soul?" Dane asks in confusion. "From here?"

She shrugs and shakes her head. "A feeling."

Danes eyes move to me. I didn't have an answer. It was the first time I had heard of it, but then again, she did have a bad feeling about Raven at the end.

"Is he still with Klaus?" I ask Dane. "You said they were together. I will link him."

He holds a hand up to me as a strange glaze appears in his crimson eyes. A range of expressions from concern to annoyance to anger flicker across his face.

"He's mad," Dottie whispers to me. She shoves a spoonful of ice cream into her mouth as she quietly watches Dane.

Dane finally announces. "They got out before the fire could take hold. Brax, Klaus and his mate,
