The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 415

Klaus

‘Shit, Klaus. Where the fuck are you?’ It was good to hear Dane again.

‘With Cooper. I had to leave with him, it was the only way to make sure he didn’t do anything to anyone else.’

‘Are you okay? Are you hurt?’

‘He hasn’t hurt me. I mean he drugged me, but it’s worn off.’

‘Where are you?’

‘He has me at Blair’s house. Don’t come. It’s too risky.’

‘Why?’ He asks. 'I can bring enough people and we will be in and out.'

'He will expect that and I don't know what else he is capable of.'

There’s a loud snore from the chair in the corner and I silently watch Cooper, fully expecting him to wake up.

‘Klaus?’

‘The guy is half Witch, half Lycan. He is drugging people with something he made. Samara was his first guinea pig. Though he got the dose wrong and she hasn’t been right since.’

‘It’s worn off. There is a good chance he will know soon enough.’ Dane tells me

'He does.'

'We can use that in our favour.' He doesn't expand anymore and I figure it's better that I don't know.

‘What about Maddie and Blair?’

‘No change.’

‘I need you to do something for me.’ I speak faster, knowing that Cooper would be awake any moment.

‘Klaus, we need to get you out of there.’

‘No you don’t,’ I mutter, seeing Cooper stirring. ‘Not yet, let me get what I can out of him. But I need you to ask Blair what scent Cooper was giving off when he tricked her into thinking she is mated.’

There is a pause. ‘You think you are mated to him?’

‘He has a mark on his chest. Claims that Witches are left with the mark of their mates' initials.’
