Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter Ninety One

The woman standing beforehad the scolour of hair my mother did, but slightly different eye color. She

did look very much like my mother, but slightly younger; she was sobbing silently, and I noticed her swollen eye

and her mouth... her tongue was missing preventing her from speaking.

Slade walked forward. He stared the woman up and down and scowled in irritation-this wasn’t what he was

expecting, and it was a wound to his ego. He kicked the woman hard, and she fell to the ground. | am sure he

broke a bone, Thane stared down at the woman, and | saw something flash in his eyes as he picked her up; she

could hardly stand.

“She is from my pack, and | had promised you she would be dead,” Thane said to his father.

Slade didn’t seem satisfied by that; leaving it up to him, he would have lengthened the woman's torture. Thane

whispered something in the woman's ears before slitting her throat. She choked on her own blood, clutching on

to her throat as she dropped to the ground.

He had given her a very quick death, against his father’s wishes. He had done that because, just like me, he

knew the woman had been innocent; she had just been unlucky, and now she was dead in my mother’s place.

Slade had been here for blood, so blood had to be shed in this halls and | never really understood what | was

asking of Thane when | pleaded with him to spare my mother.

What was more painful was the fact that | felt relief-so slight, but it was still there-relief that it hadn't been my

mother, that it had been someone else... someone | didn’t know.

“Take care of this mess,” Thane said to the soldiers.

“Ill like to have her body nailed to our front gates, just to remind others that we are not to be messed with,”

Slade said.

“She has a family, and she would be buried,” Thane replied, his facade still on.

“You seem to forget who you speak to.

“You seem to forget you are in my pack,” Thane said to his father, staring him off, and finally Slade nodded.

“She is dead, and that’s all that matters.” Slade agrees, but | could see it in his eyes; that wasn’t ‘all’ that

matters to him. He had wanted the woman's body as a proof of his brutality.

Thane walks straight to me. | tried to catch his eyes, but he had avoided my gaze.

“Cnow,” he whispered/commanded, and | followed.

There were so many emotions | felt all at once: surprise, gratitude, relief, and then sadness. | didn’t know the

woman, but | knew one thing: she was innocent, and yet she was killed.

Thane ledinto his office, slamming the door shut. He seemed furious.

“You hadn't killed her,” | said, still surprised that my mother was alive.

“No. | couldn't”

“Why?” | asked, but he gave no response. “Who was she?”

“You don’t need to know.”

“But | do,” | said. Thane might have killed her, but | was her true murderer.

“A pack member”

“Does she have a family?.”

“Yes,” he says. “I am not proud of what | have done. But now you know how far I'll go just for you; I'll kill for you,

and | would do it again,” he says.

“Thank you... | shouldn't be relieved by her death”

“Hush... is alright. Your mother had been transported somewhere she would be safe, and you

don’t have to blyourself for the woman's death; I'll take the blame; I did this, not you,” he says.

I held him close, my hand's circling around him, and | sobbed into his chest He comforted me. “I am ready to be

anything you wantto be, with no complaints; | do not care what you do. to me.”

He took in a sharp inhale. He hadn't liked what | said.

“No. | want you to be the very sperson you are, the very sperson you will always be, Riley Kaidon.".

Just then the door to the office busted open and Axel walked in.

Axel, who | hadn't seen since our little date. He seemed to have disappeared or made himself very scarce lately,

and with all that was going on, | hadn't even sorted for him.

But Axel had a frown in his face; he looked... different, he had looked overlike | wasn’t

there.

“Why?” he questioned Thane. “Why would you do that to an innocent woman?”

“I think you know the answer to that question.”

“Kate was the rebel; she should have been brought to justice,” Axel said, and my mouth fell open. | snapped it

back shut immediately.

Axel had said that knowing | was standing right here and how did he know my mother’s name?
