The Alpha’s Contract novel Chapter 509

“Am I not allowed to be happy?” Damien demands, ignoring Dane

“Don’t be an idiot, of course you can be happy.” Mallory tells him

“Then why can’t it be someone I have chosen? The two women who were destined to be my mate didn’t work out. So I’m making the decisions. I'm choosing the person who makes me happy.”

“She is not who you are supposed to be with!”

“Why?” He challenges, “Come on Mallory, tell me why. Who do you think I should be with?”

“I’m not doing this here!” She shakes her head in frustration

“This is exactly why I didn’t tell you. I knew you would have a problem with it.”

“Eric, take Mallory home.” I tell him.

“The show was just getting started.” Brax protests but Maddie takes the lead and tells him she wants to go home. “Fine, I’m coming.”

“Eric.” Dane stops him, “Take the boys with you,”

When they are far enough away, Damien sighs, rubbing his eyes. “I was expecting some level of disagreement from her, but not this.”

“I think Mallory is just being cautious given how Samara arrived here.” Dane tells him.

“I don’t want to cause any more trouble.” Samara whispers. “I just….”

“You are not going anywhere.” Damien tells her as he drapes an arm around her shoulders. That deep pink blush appears again. There was no hiding how much she liked that he stood up for her.

“You’re happy?” I ask Damien. Mallory did have a point, but Samara seemed to have come a long way in the last few weeks. Agreeing to trap her brother, ripping his head off. I had seen the stickers that Dorothy had given her too. Another good sign.

“For the first time in a long time, yes.” He gives me a big smile

“I promise to be the best fa…pack member I can be.” Samara mutters. “I’ve learned alot about myself recently.” She glances at Damien, her smile almost matching his.
