Ch. 506..510: The Alpha Contract Chapter 506-510
Chapter 0506
Damien
Her skin is flush again, as she stares at me with wide eyes. "Uh, I...." Her eyes dart around the room, trying to avoid my gaze. "I know you felt that too." "You felt something?"
Her brow crinkles up as she nods her head "And when I touched your hand this morning. I can't hold it in any longer. I saw it, I saw how you reacted, you felt it, just like I did." Samara leans back against the basin and takes a deep breath. "Are you going to say anything?" She presses. "Please don't say you didn't feel it. Please don't lie to me. Because I am so confused right now. I just need to know it's not in my head. And I need to know what this is."
"Yes, I felt something." I felt something every time I looked at her, especially since getting to know her a little more. And she constantly invaded my thoughts.
She slowly bobs her head and takes another deep breath. "I'm definitely not imagining it?"
I cock a brow at her. "You thought you were going mad?"
"I just needed to know I wasn't losing it." She spins around and turns the tap on, splashing her face with water.
I move quickly, locking my arms around her as she lets out a small squeal. Pressing my nose against her neck, I felt that same spark. It only seemed to happen when our skin touched.
Inhaling, I smell nothing but another Lycan. No sweet scent. No intoxicating smell that drew me in. Nothing. Yet the sparks continue to pulsate, sending wave after wave of life through me. It didn't make sense, but maybe it didn't have to.
She leans her head back against my chest, her eyes close as she takes slow deep breaths. "What's happening?" she whispers.
I could smell her arousal, but I don't say anything.
"Damien." My name is barely a whisper as my hand slides up under the shirt. Her skin is warm and seems to come alive under my touch. More sparks radiate down the length of my fingers, spreading out across my hand as she holds her breath.
"Breathe," My lips are millimetres away from her ear and her cheeks turn the reddest I have ever seen.
"This is a dream." She mutters.
"Is it?" I drag my teeth over the lobe of her ear. She lets out a little hiss.
"But......"
As I reach her breasts, she pushes them against my hand, desperate for my touch. She lets out another little hiss as my palm grazes her hardened nipples.
I could no longer hide how I felt about her and I had kept my gaze to myself when she had shifted in the forest, but now, I wanted to see every inch of her. I wanted to see her trembling under my touch. I wanted to learn every inch of her body so that when she does invade my mind, the image of her is exactly right.
As I roll her nipple between my thumb and finger, she lets out tiny little gasps. My other hand works its way inside of her shorts, cupping her wet pussy.
"Damien..." She pleads and parts her thighs a little. As I slide a finger between her folds, she is so wet for me that it makes my cock strain against my zipper, desperate to fuck her.
Pushing my finger deeper, she leans forwards, gripping the basin, letting out a gasp.
I press my chest against her back, wanting to keep us locked together as I thrust my finger back and forth.
"Fuck." She mutters
As my finger retreats, I slam back into her with two fingers. Her hands hit the wall as she lets out a growl.
She tightens around my fingers, already close to an orgasm as my thumb settles on her clit.
Pressing my lips against her neck as she moans my name, I push my fingers in, all the way to the knuckles. She breaks around me. Her muscles clamping my fingers in place as my name comes from her lips in a whispered delight. Releasing my fingers, her breath is heavy. She stares at me in the mirror for a moment and slowly turns around to look at me. Her lips are parted a little and her eyes are wide with surprise.
As I start to lift her shirt up, she raises her arms so I can lift it over her head. Her eyes stay on me the entire time.
Leaning down, I carefully lick around each of the dark pink swollen nipples, and momentarily take them in my mouth, giving each one a little bite.
Chapter 0507
She gasps as I start pulling down her shorts, but doesn't tell me to stop. I pause when her beautiful pussy comes into view and slowly flick my tongue over it, tasting her wetness. Her fingers lock in my hair, a mixture of surprise and delight at the invasion. Stepping out of her shorts, I throw them to one side, taking in every inch of her. She had always hidden herself until now.
"Your turn." she whispers. She slowly unfastens the buttons of my shirt. Her hands settle on my chest before she pushes the shirt from me, letting it fall to the floor.
Her eyes lock on mine as she unfastens my jeans and cups my throbbing cock. A brief smile appears. She isn't as slow at setting my cock free either and her hands glide up and down my length, making it so hard that it's painful.
"I want you." She whispers. "I want this." Her hand squeezes my cock. "I want everything with you."
I lift her off her feet and slam my lips against hers. Whether we were mates or not, I didn't care. At some point, I had fallen for her and she was what I wanted and what I needed.
I press her up against the wall. Her legs automatically hook around my hips and my cock is already perfectly positioned against her pussy. As I deepen the kiss, I push myself into her.
She's tight, but she doesn't complain.
It's maybe three thrusts before she starts tightening around me. Her fingers dig into my shoulders as she moans against my lips. She pulls her face away as her back arches and she shudders around me.
"Sorry." She whispers, almost embarrassed that she had orgasmed so quickly
"For what?" I don't give her a chance to answer. "It just means I get to make you orgasm over and over."
*****
She's fast asleep on her stomach when I get up. I automatically lean over to kiss her cheek and a smile appears.
Last night wasn't supposed to happen, but I couldn't stop myself. Not after I entered the house and picked up the smell of blood. Not after the way she looked at me. Big, wide, grey eyes that were full of curiosity as she tried to downplay why there was blood.
All I could think about was protecting her and keeping her safe. Then I touched her face to check the invisible wound and I couldn't stop myself, it was like something else had taken over me. And all thoughts of my first mate went out the window. Maybe that is the way it is supposed to be.
I pull on a pair of jeans and look over to her. The sheet was gathered around her hips, her feet poke out of the bottom. Her hands nestled under the pillow her head was laid on. Comfortable and content.
While brushing my teeth, I receive a link from Dane. Asking me to get up and come down to the gate. Klaus was leaving.
I half expected Klaus to change his mind at the last minute. Or after our conversation, that it would at least be a few more days until he left.
'I will be there.' I reply.
Squatting down next to Samara, I run a finger over her cheek. "Hey, sleepyhead."
She takes a while to open her eyes, or rather one eye. "I can't go again, I'm sore."
I try to hide my amusement, "No, it's not that. I need to go and meet Dane, Klaus is leaving this morning."
"Do you want me to come?" She asks surprised.
"That's up to you, but if you are, you have about two minutes to get ready."
Samara rips past me to the bathroom and yells for me to find her a top. Digging through my wardrobe, I find her one of my fitted tops. It will still be big on her but at least it won't be down to her knees.
I'm pouring her a coffee as she comes tearing down the stairs. "For once in my life, it's a good job I have no hair." She mutters, taking the coffee and necking it like it wasn't boiling hot.
We step out into the early morning sun and she walks quickly to keep up with me. When we are almost at the gates, I grab her hand threading my fingers through hers.
She stares at our hands. "Are you sure?"
"Yes. There are still things we need to discuss, but yes. I want you to be my mate."
Chapter 0508
Neah
"Are you sure about this?" Dane asks Klaus after Mallory finishes hugging him.
He has a car running and it's already loaded up with a lot of his things. He was definitely going.
Klaus smiles at me. "You know why I'm doing this?"
I nod, "I won't stop you. I will miss you, but I won't stop you." Dane's hand tightens around mine. There is an overwhelming sadness in my heart. It was an odd feeling, to miss someone already. I could always count on Klaus for anything and he would never turn down a request.
He crouches in front of the twins, both of them throw themselves at him, wrapping their small arms around him as they squeeze as tight as possible.
"Make sure you look after your mummy." Klaus tells them as they let go.
While Logan is already trying to climb up Danes leg. Evrin stares at Klaus for a moment and then nods his head. I was certain he could understand way more than he should. "Damien is on his way too." Dane tells him.
"And we are here." Brax walks towards us with Maddie. "Goodbye Hunter brother." Brax mutters. "I hope you find what you are looking for." And strangely for Brax, he offers his hand to Klaus.
"You have taught me alot." Klaus tells him as he shakes Brax's hand
"But not enough." Brax sighs. "If you were like me, I could have trained you in everything that I know."
When had Brax decided he liked Klaus?
"Thank you for saving me, you know, after Cooper." Maddie mutters quietly.
"You don't need to thank me for that. Everyone deserves a chance until there are no more chances to give."
From the corner of my eye, I see Damien, but he isn't alone. I turn to see him hand in hand with Samara.
"Dane." I whisper.
He follows my gaze, "Looks like whatever it was, they worked it out."
"That's who he was talking about?" Mallory mutters to her mate, Eric
As they come to a stop, Samara's eyes move to each one of us. Her mouth stays closed as Damien tells Klaus goodbye.
'He asked me to be his mate.' Samara's voice echoes through my head
'He asked you?' I was surprised. After Raven and Eris, I was certain that he wouldn't accept anyone else.
I see a tiny nod of her head and a deep pink creep up her neck towards her face.
There was no denying they had chemistry, Dane and I had both seen it when they came to the house yesterday.
We all say a final round of goodbyes as Klaus climbs into the car. He gives me a final smile and reassures me that he will be back. We all watch as the car disappears down the road and out of sight as the large gates close.
It was strange to see someone walking out of my life, especially someone I cared about. And I hoped he wouldn't be gone forever
I stare at the closing gates as the others talk around us. Evrin pulls at my top for me to pick him up. As I lift him, Dane tells me that Klaus hasn't rejected the pack and that he could link him whenever, even if it was just to check in. Nodding, I give Dane a small smile. "He has to do this."
"You have chosen a prisoner as a mate!" I hear Mallory snap.
"She's not a prisoner anymore." Damien growls back at her.
"Then why wouldn't you tell me? I thought we told each other everything!"
"Because you don't understand. And there are some things that I just need to work through."
"She is Coopers brother."
I didn't think Mallory would be so against this.
"It doesn't mean they are cut from the same cloth." Damien fires
"That's enough!" Dane snaps as Eric tries to pull Mallory away. Brax looks like he wished he had brought popcorn to the show as he sits on the grass, with a smile while Maddie tugs on his arm.
Chapter 0509
"Am I not allowed to be happy?" Damien demands, ignoring Dane
"Don't be an idiot, of course you can be happy." Mallory tells him
"Then why can't it be someone I have chosen? The two women who were destined to be my mate didn't work out. So I'm making the decisions. I'm choosing the person who makes me happy." "She is not who you are supposed to be with!"
"Why?" He challenges, "Come on Mallory, tell me why. Who do you think I should be with?"
"I'm not doing this here!" She shakes her head in frustration
"This is exactly why I didn't tell you. I knew you would have a problem with it."
"Eric, take Mallory home." I tell him.
"The show was just getting started." Brax protests but Maddie takes the lead and tells him she wants to go home. "Fine, I'm coming."
"Eric." Dane stops him, "Take the boys with you,"
When they are far enough away, Damien sighs, rubbing his eyes. "I was expecting some level of disagreement from her, but not this."
"I think Mallory is just being cautious given how Samara arrived here." Dane tells him.
"I don't want to cause any more trouble." Samara whispers. "I just...."
"You are not going anywhere." Damien tells her as he drapes an arm around her shoulders. That deep pink blush appears again. There was no hiding how much she liked that he stood up for her.
"You're happy?" I ask Damien. Mallory did have a point, but Samara seemed to have come a long way in the last few weeks. Agreeing to trap her brother, ripping his head off. I had seen the stickers that Dorothy had given her too. Another good sign. "For the first time in a long time, yes." He gives me a big smile
"I promise to be the best fa...pack member I can be." Samara mutters. "I've learned alot about myself recently." She glances at Damien, her smile almost matching his.
'It's weird.' Nyx mutters
'Sometimes weird things happen.' I reply and she rolls her eyes at me.
'Does this mean we need to accept her?' She questions.
'I think, for now, we have to tolerate her. I love Damien. He is a huge part of our family and I am not interested in pissing him off. He likely already knows that it isn't going to be easy. He knows that Samara will have to prove herself to everyone, not just me, Dane or Damien.'
'A lot of people saw her as a threat.' Nyx tells me
'Exactly, but they need to make up their own minds. I'm not doing it for them.'
I look over to see Dane talking to Damien and Samara. Dane seems relaxed and unphased by the situation. I was worried he would be dealing with his own problems. He had made it quite clear that Eris was too soon after Raven. So why is he so calm now?
I rub my stomach as today's nausea sets in. I was definitely worse than when I had been pregnant with the boys. Even Nyx groans.
Focussing on Dane, I hear him repeat my question and ask Damien if he is happy."
Damien nods. "Yes. She makes me happy."
"Seriously?" We all look up to see Blair. Her hands on her hips as she glares at us. Ryken grabs hold of her jacket collar and drags her forward.
"None of our business." He tells her. "Keep walking. We have work to do."
"But she's...." Blair protests
"I don't give a shit. You don't run this pack." Ryken snaps. "Move on."
"But I have to stay trapped under someone's watchful eye!" She snarls as he continues to drag her away. "while she gets to waltz around with the Beta and play happy families!" "Stop! Just stop!" I demand.
Ryken comes to a halt as Blair continues to glare at Samara. I move over to them, the others following me.
Chapter 0510
"What is wrong with you?" I ask Blair.
She scowls at me. "What is that supposed to mean?" "It's a genuine question, what do you not understand?" "Why does she get a free pass?"
"Why is it a free pass? You asked why you still have to be watched. Don't you think she is being watched too? Damien, Dane, me, Mallory, Eric. Everywhere she moves she is just as watched as you. Maybe even more while you get to stay under the watchful eye of your step father."
"I thought you were changing, Blair. You told the truth about Kade. You've stuck to the work you have been requested to do. Even Maddie has said good things about you. But this seems like jealousy is seeping back in again. You don't know the full story, but you jump to conclusions, just like before. If I were you, I would listen to Ryken. And right now, you better go before I hurl my breakfast all over you."
"Let's go!" Ryken orders. As they start walking away, Ryken links me to apologise for her.
'Don't let her slip back into her old ways' I mutter back.
He looks over his shoulder and nods his head.
"Thank you." Samara whispers. "You didn't have to do that."
"She needed to be reminded that she always has a need to jump to conclusions without knowing the whole truth."
"She was the same yesterday."
"You saw her yesterday?" Damien asks.
"Maddie bought some clothes around to the house. She thought I might find something to fit because we are similar sizes." She shrugs her shoulders. "Blair was with her."
"You should have said something." Damien replies
She looks at him and her cheeks turn pink. "I was a little distracted." She grins at him. "Blair just wanted to remind me that I had I betrayed her. And I get it, I did. So I don't expect her to forgive me."
'Totally not what I thought she was going to say.' Nyx murmurs. 'I half expected her to beg us to make Blair stop. Thought she might have played the cousin card.'
"Try to keep your distance from her." Dane tells her. "As you can see, we have a lot of people in this pack, both Wolves and Lycans. Not everyone gets along. That's bound to happen."
"I will try my best." She smiles at him. As my stomach announces that it needs more food. How it was possible to feel sick yet hungry, baffles me.
"And that's enough excitement for you." Dane tells me as slides his arms around my hips. His hands settle on my belly as I roll my eyes. I knew he was just being extra cautious but I wasn't about to break into a million pieces. "Damien?" I ask with a frown, "Can you smell them yet?" I point to my belly.
"Yes."
"And?"
"It's still too early to confirm whether they are Wolves or Lycans."
I let out a heavy sigh. Deep down I knew it was too early. I was at least another two months along before he could scent them last time.
"But I'm pretty certain of the gender." He smiles at me.
Samara is staring at him in confusion. They couldn't have talked about his past yet, or maybe they hadn't had time.
"I thought it was too early, they wouldn't have developed yet, would they?"
"Sometimes the scent is too muddled, boys growing, girls growing, especially twins. Sometimes it can take a bit of growth to become clear. But baby girls on their own, they tend to have a stronger sweeter scent that has already developed with no plan of changing."
