The Alpha’s Contract

Beta Eric winks at me. "He knows what he’s doing.

I knew what he was doing too, it was a backhanded threat. I had heard so many of them over the years. “Everyone meet back here tomorrow at sun down for the pack run!” Alpha Dane announces

There are nods and a few mutterings. They all begin to move away, disappearing among the trees.

“We need to go and find Klaus.” Beta Eric mutters, already walking ahead of us.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

“Don't do that.” I mutter when it’s just me and Alpha Dane.

“Don't do what?”

“Don't choose me over them. You...you have worked hard for this pack. Don’t throw it away on me. “You are right, I have worked hard to make this pack what it is, and you Neah, are part of this pack.”

He drapes his arm over my shoulders. “Now let's go see what Klaus was talking about.”

Alpha Dane keeps me glued to his side as we walk back through the forest and into the main packland where Veronica is waiting with her arms folded over her chest.

“Well, well. well, what a fucking surprise!” She mutters “Watch your mouth, Veronica!” Alpha Dane snarls.

“She's not even one of us!" She speaks directly to Alpha Dane, completely ignoring me standing right here. Her hands move to her hips. “I don’t get it.”

“Then you better catch on quick!” He snaps at her and turns me away, quickly walking me in the direction of Klaus’s home.

The door to Klaus’s is wide open. Beta Eric is leaning against a wall just inside while Klaus seems to be frantically looking through the books randomly tossing one's onto the table.

“Any news?” Alpha Dane asks

“Not yet.” Beta Eric murmurs with a cocked eyebrow. He seemed to be finding the whole thing amusing.

Klaus suddenly starts flipping through the pages of books. Fanning them out on the table.

“There's no mention of Lycans.” He murmurs, gesturing to the books, but there are references to a beast like you described, half human, half wolf.” “Why do you even have this?” Beta Eric asks

“I was bound, remember. I was trying to figure out how to unbind it. But the only information that I could ever find on binding is on these creatures.”

“Why didn’t you say anything?” Alpha Dane asks

"Because I am a Wolf, it was never relevant and [’sidn't think...” his deep green eyes fdcus on me. “I didn't think Neawould be anything other than a Welf.” He taps the pages of the beak, “This is centuries old information, all of them are. You cotfdn’t find anything, Alpha Dane bécause they were neverreferred to as Lycans. Instead they were known as Wolf-human.”

“Wolf-human?” I mutter

‘They....yowdon't transition into a full Wolf. Yourbecome something in = between.” He sighs, “And thereds verysittle information on them. A secret almost.” 7

“What do we know?” Beta Eric questions. “Besides the basics.” He glances at me. "Devon likes to talk.” I see Alpha Dane frown, but as usual, he keeps his thoughts to himself. “You have been bound many times.” Klaus continues. “Right?”

“At least four, that we can piece together. But what does that have to do with anything?” Alpha Dane asks

Klaus pickS-up one of the books and hands it tAipha Dane, already wittr its pages open. “This here, this states that the only Wolf-human to have beertbound more than once-was bound three times. to“ <

“Okay.”

“The third time killed them.” He looks at me, heavy sorrow in his eyes. “In theory, you should be dead.
