The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 177

Damien

I would usually have been impressed by Neah’s kill if I wasn’t so worried.

Mallory nudges me, giving me the same look of concern. I knew what was going through her head and I slowly shook my own. We would need to be really careful.

Raven keeps her head buried against by chest, grossed out by how Neah had killed Roan. Neah had made him suffer over and over until she decided enough was enough. Or rather, she was done playing with her prey.

“Raven, go with Mallory, I need to speak to Dane.”

Her dark eyes peer up at me. “Why, what’s wrong?”

“I just need to confirm a few things, that’s all.” I reassure her, hoping it would be enough information to keep her from pushing. It wasn’t that I wanted to keep secrets, but Dane was Neah’s mate, he should hear the information from me first.

“Come.” Mallory smiles at her. “You are mated to my best friend, we should get to know each other.”

Dane is looking at me suspiciously but Raven follows Mallory anyway. A few moments pass and he orders Eric and Klaus to go with them, just in case Salem was about. Salem wouldn't show himself yet, whatever he was planning, he was dragging it out, much like how Neah had killed Roan. I wonder if she knew she had spent hours torturing him.

“What?” He snaps when the dungeon door is closed and it was just us and a dismembered Roan.

“There was something you told me about her Lycan being a separate spirit.”

“And? I know I said you could kill Roan, is that what this is about?”

“No. It’s just, since I have been here, I have come to understand that when her Lycan is pushing forward her eyes are dark, almost black. It’s her Lycan that helps her find the courage to kill.”

“Yes.”
