Contractually Yours Alpha (Riley) novel Chapter 315

Chapter Fifty Five 

DAEMON 

“I have every reason to kill you.” Bruce said to me as he tended to my wound. I should have kept an eye out for Thane; maybe I did underestimate him. 

“I know.” 

“No, you don’t. You are a fool if you think you have a chance with my daughter; you don’t. Many have tried; she has eyes for only one man.” 

“I’ve learned from

my mistakes; Wes 

“Of course you won’t; I will not let you,” he says. 

We were back in Bruce’s home. I hated this place; for some reason it made me feel powerless, totally helpless 

Bruce had helped me escape from Jade; together we locked her away, but I always felt like I escaped from one prison only to fall into another. Just like Jade, Bruce wanted to control me, but unlike her, he made me feel like I had an option even if I didn’t. 

“You gave them the pendant; why?” 

“Why else do you think? I know about what you did to my daughter, against her will.” 

“You don’t really care, so stop the pretense.” 

“Is that what you think? That I don’t care? 

Just so you know, I have made a few corrections on you; from now till I see fit, you will no longer be able to shapeshift.” 

“You can’t do that.” 

“I can actually. I taught you just how to do it, and the first thing you did was abuse your privilege, so until I see a use for it, you will have to do without it.” 

“You had no right, Bruce.” 

He smirked; he did look like Riley, but he bared none of her soft features. “I do, you know why? Because you belong to me, and I did more than that. ‘I had been helping you sustain your energy; demons are easily drained by the daylight. I made you an exemption, but maybe I’ve been spoiling you a little too much. You will no longer be able to walk in daylight.” 

He pulled open the curtain, and the sun burnt my skin. I groaned, rolling off the bed; I hid from the sun. He shut the curtain after proving his point. 

Demons can walk under sunlight, yes it drains us, but it never posed a real threat if you your time well. 

“How…” 

could manage 

“How did I do it? I am impressed too, but I manage to create a spell, more like a curse. Until I release you

from this spell, you will not be able to roam the earth daylight… at all. 

In the next moment I had my hands firmly wrapped around his throat. “Why would you do this?”
