The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 158

Neah

“What do you want?” I demand as I stare at the Rogue, chained to the wall of the dungeon.

It growls back at me. I had been asking it the same question for days and yet it still refused to speak.

‘This is a bad idea. We should have waited for Dane.’ Nyx murmurs. She didn’t like us being down here alone. Or rather she didn’t like pregnant me being down here alone.

‘They can’t do anything.’ I murmur back at her. Both Roan and the Rogue were locked up; it wasn't like they could do anything.

“He won’t answer you.” Roan calls out from his cell. “And shouldn’t you be protecting those precious twins instead of coming down here to annoy us?”

I watch the Rogues' eyes drop to my stomach at the word ‘twins’. His snout curls up even tighter until the whole thing is wrinkled and I can see his back teeth. Everytime he heard the word, all he seemed to do was focus on my stomach. It was like roan was trying to antagonise him.

“Growl at me all you want, it’s not like you can do anything, is it?” I snap at the Rogue. “You are chained up and you have one and a half legs. I will kill you before you even lay a hand on me!”

He tugs on the chains.

I had made sure to repay the Rogue for what he had done to Raven, or rather Nyx did.

I hear Roan chuckle behind me but for now, I ignore him. He will be dead tomorrow, finally.

The Rogues growl deepens and Roan chuckles more.

I spin around to look at the asshole in the cell behind me. He liked to do this. He liked to stick his nose in where it wasn’t wanted. “And you can shut up.”

“Are you not worried about being down here alone?” Roan asks from his cell.

“You go on trial tomorrow.” I spit.

“Oh sweet Neah.” His dark grey eyes lock on me.
