Contractually Yours Alpha (Riley) novel Chapter 491

Chapter One Hundred and Nine 

KADIA’S POV 

I searched for the light brown eyes that had stared at me from those pictures–and I found them. She looked younger than she had in the photos. 

Fury filled my chest. Anger burned through me. She was the one who had taken my parents from me. 

I fired. Three times. 

It was over too soon, too quick. It felt almost too easy. 

“You killed her, didn’t you?” Aric asked. 

“I think.” I responded but I wasn’t unsure. The silver bullets had dug through her heart, thrice, my aim was perfect, I never missed. 

“You don’t seem very content with your success; I expected more complications.” 

Me too. 

“I took her out too quickly; I could have captured her and made her death last longer; I should have put her through pain till she begged for death; my face should have been the last thing she saw before she died, slowly and painfully.” 

“She is an Empress. These people do not serve beneath the Alpha King or Queen; they are a city of their own. This was the smartest way to end her; delaying her death would only put you in worse danger.” 

“I can be fast. I could have found a way to get her out of there.” 

“I know you’re fast, but it was too much of a risk. You entered their lands on the most sacred day and killed their empress; the whole city would be against you if they discovered who you are and what you’ve done. Thank the goddess no one saw you.” He said, but I gave no response. No one saw you, right?” 

“Of course, no one saw me.” 

Aric walked forward, blocking my part. “No one saw you, right?” he repeated. 

“The girl… with the silver hair, she saw me, but I was fully covered; she wouldn’t be able to tell it was me.” 

Aric let out a breath. “Then there is no need to be worried.” He said as we walked on. 

“Aric, thank you for everything.” I said and he stared at me, I thought I saw the tiny flicker of guilt there but then 

it was gone. 

“Admit it, you wouldn’t have been able to go through this without me,” he said playfully. 

“You just had to feed your ego on that.” I muttered before walking past him. 

“Kaida…” he called, a conflicted look in his eyes. 

“If you want to tell me something, spit it out.” 

“I need to leave you now, we’ll meet back at the pack, but just in case Alexander finds you, I don’t think he would like the idea of seeing me by your side.” 

He was right and yet I didn’t want him gone.

“Stay, I would talk to him.” 

“Something tells me he won’t have the patience to listen if showed up with you.” 

I gave in. “Okay, we will meet at the pack. Maybe you could ta
