The Alpha’s Contract novel Chapter 481

“Why would we tell him?” I ask

Dane’s hand wraps around my wrist. “I need to talk to you.” He pulls me away with urgency and doesn’t stop until we get to Mallory and Eric’s home.

“Sit down.” He tells me as soon as we walk through the door.

“Dane, what’s going on?”

“There is something that I need to tell you. I have been trying to figure out how for a long time and now, it seems like my hand is being forced.”

“You’re trying to tell me you had a twin.”

“You kn…. Klaus told you.” He frowns

I shrug my shoulders and nod. “I don’t know why you didn’t tell me, especially when I got pregnant with the boys, but it would have been nice to know if multiples run in the family, to prepare me for whatever is in here.” I pat my stomach and realise how hungry I am. I hadn’t eaten for almost twelve hours.

“It’s more than that. Did he tell you what happened to them?”

“Stillborn.” I feel the lump in my throat. It must be every mothers worst nightmare

He shakes his head at me.

“They weren’t?”

“No. It was the story I was told. But it wasn’t the truth. It’s not a new thing I have discovered either and the reason why Eris is freaking out is because Silas is my twin. I’m guessing by Eris’s reaction, we look alike.”

'I'mdreaming, right?' i mutter to Nyx.

‘Nope.’ Nyx mutters. ‘This is very much real life.’

My eyes lock with his“Are you telling me that you have a twin out there that none of us know anything about?”

He dips his head.

I open my mouth to say something and all that comes out is a puff of air. Should I be mad? Probably. But I think mostly it’s disbelief that he has never told me.

Pushing myself off the sofa, I make my way into the kitchen. I needed to eat no matter how many questions were being fired at me by Nyx.

Dane follows me. “I’m sure you have questions.”
