The Alpha’s Contract



Chapter 0613

Neah

'Is that... Nyx murmurs. 'Are they Wolves?" She sounded just as confused as I did.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

We were certain; everyone was. They were supposed to be Hybrids. But two small black Wolves stalk towards the Omega, who is whimpering and crying.

"Girls, stop!" Dane plants himself in front of the Omega while I remain glued to the spot. They weren't even two weeks old but acted like they had been in the world for months.

Blood dripped from their faces as their feet stilled. They are quick to bare their teeth and shuffle towards each other, standing shoulder to shoulder. If it weren't for their eyes, I wouldn't be able to tell them apart.

They are identical, even down to the ridge of hair that runs the length of their spine. The longer I looked at them, the more I realised they looked slightly different to other Wolves. Their snouts are a little longer, and their tails are a little shorter. Maybe it was because they were cubs.

Aderyn's blue eyes shift to me. Using her shoulder, she nudges Willa, and very slowly, they creep towards me with their heads low as though they know they are in trouble.

The girls circle my feet and then start pawing at my legs. Nyx is silent, and so is Dane as he watches them. The pawing at my legs became more frantic and desperate. A sudden sharp pain rips through my calf. As I look down, Willa is dragging claws through my flesh, claws that look like they belong to a Lycan.

"Go get that checked out!" Dane tells the Omega as he creeps forward. His hands wrap around Willa's middle as he pulls her away. She lets out a tiny cry and squirms about, trying to get free.

Another cry penetrates the air as I turn to see Damien pulling Aderyn from me.

'Neah,' Nyx mutters, 'You can't just stand there; you need to do something.

I couldn't move; my legs were heavy, like cement had suddenly been poured over them.

The girl's cries grow as the men wrestle to keep them in their hands. I watch Willa squirm, tiny claws digging into Dane's flesh as she attempts to escape.

"Willa, stop!" I heard the commanding tone of Dane's voice, but I was still at a loss. I could order Lycans; I wasn't afraid to rip out someone's heart. I had overcome so much since meeting Dane, but when it came to my children, sometimes, I was thrown; it was like my brain couldn't focus or function.

Willa freezes, and Dane tells Aderyn to stop. I look between the men, trying my best to say something. But I see how the girls hang there, like rag dolls, with pure sadness in their eyes.

I knew Dane wanted to hug me, but I also knew that the moment he locked his arms around me, I would cry. Not because I was sad or angry but because this was another thing that wasn't normal. It was like I couldn't get a moment to think or plan.

"This one is shifting," Damien mutters.

I turn my gaze to him and watch the fur fade from Aderyn. Her bones don't crack or make any noise, and in seconds, she returns to being a tiny newbom.

Damien changes his hold on Aderyn, cradling her with one arm while inspecting her fingers. I looked back at Dane and Willa; she had also shifted.

'Their bones,' Nyx whispers.

'Their bones are more flexible when they are babies,' I manage to mutter back, remembering what Raven had told me when I had been afraid of hurting the boys.

"They didn't cry like Evrin did,' Nyx reminds me.

'Yep,' I pop the p.

"Neah, it's fine; the situation has been handled," Dane tries to reassure me.

Handled, is that what he wanted to call it? Our tiny newborns had attacked an Omega; Willa dragged her claws through my leg. They shifted, and even though they looked similar to Wolves, I knew they weren't.

"Aderyn is asleep," Damien tells us and moves to the shelves. I watch him grab a wet wipe and subtly attempt to wipe the blood from her face. They had both feasted on blood.

"Is Tallen okay?" I force out.

"She's fine; she is already at the hospital," Dane replies. I see that concem in his eyes. A look that I hadn't seen in a long time. The one where he thinks I will run away from my problems. He knew me so well.
